Re-manifestation of Lords
It is theoretically possible for a dead Lord to be reborn, if the Champion that possesses its power allows their body to be sacrificed as a vessel for its re-summoning. The consciousness of a Lord sometimes requests this of their Champion, although there are no known instances of such a rebirth actually occurring.
- ↑ It is unknown whether there exists a Champion of Soz'kir the All-Scorcher.
