Well, I'm answering for Mike again it seems, 'cause I see this
first. But in his game, a zero essence character is dead. Isn't
that the way the rules go too? In order to have a cyberzombie
you gotta' have some real heavy mojo juice to make that spirit
stick in that body. I think that for him, this may go back to
what some of the others have been talking about in regards to
equipment and character backgrounds. Who did the magics
and why?
