Dark Ether: Difference between revisions

Resurrected individuals appear to be able to survive without a head, as shown by [[Ravager|Ravagers]] and [[Abomination|Abominations]]. Repeated resurrections have a physical toll on the user, leading to the progressive formation of tumor-like growths and increasing mental derangement. Eventually, Eliksni who have undergone many resurrections will become [[Screeb|Screebs]], mindless, crawling Thrall-like monstrosities who throw themselves at enemies and self-destruct in a blast of Dark Ether. It lingers instead of dissipating like normal Ether, and is described by [[Variks, The Loyal|Variks]] as a fog-like gas that one moves through like water, heavy and opaque. And appears to cause damage to those lingering inside the Dark Ether overtime. [[Variks]] also says that it is a life-giving substance because it revives the dead [[Fallen]] while regular ether is a life-sustaining substance for the Fallen.
