--- Quote from: Fcrate on April 23, 2018, 05:09:06 PM ---Isn't DarkHallow supposed to be about sucking in spirits to increase your power? (Drunken Master. Heh) The vortex sucking life is more of a byproduct.
The Fallen will have more power over you, influence your thoughts, and eventually turn you into a monster that would just love to cause a Mini-Apocalypse. With DarkHallow you're still your own man, with nothing influencing your choices, so its more of a "Right-now-evil-act" vs a "Later on- a -chaos-loving-maniac" thing.

There's a WOJ about why wouldn't Harry do the Darkhallow out in some sort of deserted location to gain power without hurting any people. The human lives the vortex would take are a necessary 'fuel for the fire', not just a side product of the heirs of Kemmler indifferently choosing to do it in a city.

Yup, though I maintain that Chitzen Itza could work, with the Ambient Life of a dense Jungle replacing the need to living humans, while the same accumulation of angry warrior spirits is already present.

But.. what if it's actually the mortal choice that they're feeding on in the spell, that most delicate part of the soul only humans possess?

It's possible, we dont really know all the details on it. I dont think so, though, on the logic that I think it would work on the same principle as using Animals vs Humans for Zombies: Animals hold less Energy per unit creature, so they would something of a Quantity over Quality solution for a Darkhallow. Less Human Life an an urban center, but more total non-human (Plant & Animal) capacity
