it, ifn it weren't for that relic) it can manifest in this reality.  Once
the manatou realizes this, it may decide to only manifest when no one is
watching.  Or worse still, it may just leave, and never come back - leaving
your undead guy just plain dead.

Ie, head shots don't "kill" the manatou.  Instead, filling the harrowed full
of lead unfetters the manatou to release an abomination from the
ex-harrowed's flesh.  Basically the character is now a walking time bomb.

character.  He can't count coup, but the manatou can - and he will be achin'
to use them once he gets a chance.

harrowed's body.  He now has a black halo that moans like burning ghost
rock.  If one looks closely, one can see the demon clawing at the back of
the dead mans skull.  Man that freaks people out.  Oh yeah - don't even try
to sneak.

Mr. Tolle, you are to be commended for this.
