Underwear Ninja comes with Space Suit
to blog or not to blog, which is the path a true underwear ninja must take? whichever path it be, it will surely be a rough-hewn one. argyle, possibly. |

o that? it's my phylactery...
|
i was looking at the trailer for "world of warcraft" (a nice trailer btw) and there is a section that you see a lich. he's the one that makes the grass die around him when he takes a footstep. i knew, from being savvy in the fantasy realm of entertainment, that he was a lich. but i was curious as to what makes a lich a lich. so i did a little research and found that a lich is, to put it simply, an undead wizard. to put it thoroughly, though, a lich is a wizard that has dark magic powerful enough to kill himself and come back as an undead wizard by attaching his soul to an object (a phylactery). what makes a lich so powerful is the eternity he has to hone his skills. also, his magic that keeps his young appearance gradually weakens over time. so its probably safe to assume that the more decayed a lich's state, the more time he's had to study and practice powerful evil magic; a la the more powerful he is. since a lich is immortal, the only way to truly kill one is by destroying his phylactery.
aaaaanyway...
i wouldn't bring up this trivial knowledge except that now i know that voldemort is a lich! sure rowling has changed the name, but there is no doubt that she had a lich in mind when she created voldemort. all of you potter fans are getting a small dose of fantasy creature knowledge whether you like it or not. HA!
i'll let you know when i figure out what harry's scar really is... |

I don't know Ninja, sounds like you're really stretching here. True, V-mort was killed and returned to life by his own magic, but you can't ignore Harry's role in his downfall. Also, V-mort is not only getting more powerful, but more physically able as his return progresses. V-Mort isn't that old either.... hardly an eternal figure. I guess we could find out for sure if we can find dead grass footprints around hogsmead or something.

a lich does not die unless you destroy its phylactery. it just waits til it can take over a body. that sounds like what v-m has done. the fact that he's not decayed yet doesn't necessarily mean he's not dead. he's a fresh-made lich and the magic that preserves his body is still very strong. perhaps harry's scar is the phylactery, or "horcrux". maybe the spell his parents put on harry would transform the avada cadavra curse into a horcrux spell? the only way to destroy voldemort completely is to find a way to remove harry's scar, as well as destroy the other horcrux/phylacteries?

ok... now explain how Narnia is a 'Christian' movie.
