The specifics on how souls enter bodies in various belief systems or philosophical theories may vary. Some perspectives posit that souls are created or assigned to bodies at birth, while others suggest that souls may choose to enter a body as part of their spiritual journey. Ultimately, the nature of this process is a complex and metaphysical question that does not have a universally agreed-upon answer.
it's sort of a job to the souls, like for example: "my calling is to be a healer" but there are few callings; healer, seeker and teacher are the only ones i can remember; a healer is (duh) a soul that heals the host bodies that the souls take over, and a seeker is a soul that searches for host bodies, as for a teacher (i think it's called a teacher) they are the ones who educate the new souls about the planets, each teacher tells about the planet they've been on; wanderer was on nine planets and she was the most demanded teacher
I love this book! They are 'Inserted'. A 'Healer' cuts the back of their neck quite deep, and then places the soul inside. Ta daa! The soul takes control of the host body. The very first insertion must have been by a bear or something. Wanderer proves that it is possible, because she did it in her life as a bear. :)
When a pathogen has invaded a host, it has found a source of nutrition and a cozy place to live and reproduce. Our bodies are like Florida to a pathogen; the conditions are perfect to live in, and it's a pleasant place to call home.
you can only host one if you start the game in the first place
The Souls, a group of parasitic alien beings, are the antagonists in The Host by Stephenie Meyer. They invade and take over human bodies, erasing the original person's consciousness. The struggle between the protagonist, Melanie, and Wanderer, a Soul who has taken over her body, drives the conflict in the story.
because the souls call who they control 'hosts', so it's based on melanie from wanderer's point of view
No, "The Host" is a science fiction novel written by Stephenie Meyer. It tells the story of a post-apocalyptic world where parasitic aliens called "Souls" invade and take control of human bodies. The book focuses on themes of identity, humanity, and survival, rather than romance.
No. The Host is about a race of alien beings who inhabit humans bodies. I found it boring as hell for the first 1/4 of the book than it gradually got better and better. It is not in the league of Twilight.
"parasites"
Tapeworms are adapted to obtaining nutrients from inside the bodies of one host.
The cast of The Art of Building Bodies - 2006 includes: Orlando Bowen as Himself - Host
Host advantage is usually that the hosting player got less latency/delay, therefore in for example Warcraft 3 he won't have any delay while moving his hero/units around. It can also be an advantage to be a host in Gears of War, where the dead bodies don't get transferred to others than the host in order to save bandwidth - allowing the host to use the bodies for extra long jumps etc...
