@TheEdVerse What is a “living dracolich” in concept? What would that entail if he is able to complete that? That they have all the benefits of undeath but aren’t undead anylonger?
And do Dracoliches need to eat souls like liches? It doesn’t *state* they have to, unlike lichesDaurgothoth envisages dragons who still live, but have the undead abilities of dracoliches (and no need to eat), but are bound to him (they MUST obey him). Azuth has told the Chosen this is impossible; attempts to craft them will fail.
No dracolich needs to eat souls.#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) October 29, 2022
