True, but once turned into a soulless the Transformation spell will work. The Transformation spell is risky, but a pretender can always be called back by priests. Once transformed into another creature the pretender can cast Twiceborn and thus become the desired WightMage.

I wouldn't recommend this scenario unless you feel comfortable winning the game.

Transformation does not work on inanimates and/or undead.

True. But you could stick the artifact Blood Pebble Armor on it, thus transforming it to a Troll eventually (it's even blood path.) You could then do Transformation or Twiceborn or Life After Death on the Troll form.

Or you could, you know, just not move your inanimate pretender :-)

Interesting ideas - most of the immortals are inanimate, or undead.
However, hso sien (whatever her name) is immortal for TC - and as I recall she even comes with
nature.

Does the immortal tag survive transformation I wonder?

The Phoenix pretender is also immortal. What happens if the Phoenix casts transform?

I do believe I'm going to try that.
