Soul Gate Question
 

I'm wondering which reanimations use population, which use corpses, and which can always be done as the Soul Gate theme for Ermor.

Re: Soul Gate Question
 

Disposessed Spirits and Apparitions use corpses, Shadows are free.

BTW i have seen Shades and Shade Beasts appearing with Call Shadows and Ghosts and Wailing Ladies(!!!) appearing with Call Apparitions along with the normal Shadows and Apparitions.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Apparitions use population in fact (pg. 21).

I think that small amounts of shades are autorecruited, like legionaires. I don't know whether wailing ladies are as well, but I've seen unholy priests appear as autorecruited leaders (at least I think so).

Apparitions use 100 Population when created.

Shadows and Dispossesed use Unburied corpses.

I'm pretty sure that the Wailing Ladies appeared spontaneosly. OTOH, the province had a temple.
