Your words of "Not one single prayer came from him seeking any type of healing from the evil influence." have me wondering how you took this.

Gataliff ever sine she was infected had been seeking a cure to the infection that she bore. The role was clear that it could not be cured because it was the demon blood of Zurcon. Unless some serious immortal interaction wanted to separate the two , which I never ruled out.

The role also clearly stated how she blindly believed she had some divine backer that did not want to be known helping her with her plight to cure the disease.

The empowerment was from the conduit, in the role, which was linked to Zurcon. To regain empowerment it was the evil side only that would have gained that. Unless the player base actually continued to RP with her , when she was awake and in control, and tried to do anything to cure her of the blight. I pushed as hard as I could for this to happen but It did not.

Perhaps I failed in making that clear in my role. I guess it is something to learn from.
