An idea - appeared some time ago. In a description of the General of the West it's said that the previous Pantokrator made an immortal body for him so that he wouldn't be slain again. Is there a possibility that a new Pretender will manage to duplicate this work for his own ends?
I mean something like Earth/Astral? spell, Enchantment 8-9, making a new body similar to the said General, with some Earth magic and possibly 1-2 randoms. Unfortunately current modding commands don't allow transformations of existing commanders so it will actually be a summon, but I think that according to background text Enchantment would be more thematic.
