I thought the death defier's current manifestation was the necessary result of need to escape an agreement that ancient sorcerers made when attempting to escape death by promising themselves forever to the IOB's world. Elegant as it is, it still seems like a perpetuation of the impulse toward that original escape. Thus the need for perpetuation of the current milieu via "success", which is itself an extension of the impulse to escape death, in order uphold a substrate within which it can perpetuate.
Are they really gifts of power? I thought it was a bartered exchange. If so, what's the fulcrum around which the barter takes place?
IDK, this is all based on stories I've read (are we even talking about the same entity?)...nothing more. I don't know what's up with these beings, honestly.
And, anyway, what can I say? I just got back from a kiosk where I bought a sandwich.
