[quote=KaelRavenheart]Zombehs- I'll allow the horcrux like object under the following condition. Unlike a horcrux, if someone else gains possession of it, they have the power over his life, causing him pain or even killing him if they wish. This could also be used as a means of controlling him. If you don't want that condition, then you can make it a phylactery, which is a small container that holds his life force, but grants no power to anyone who holds it beyond the fact that if it is destroyed, so is your character.[/quote]

But a phylactery would mean he's a full Lich with the appearance and what not? Cause even with the Soul Gem (I'm settling on this cause they function exactly the same way), he's still limited to only controlling his own body. It's not like he'd be able to hop around to any vacant body he finds.
