Mental Effects of Awnsheglienis
I would argue that the desire to have the "cool" powers of Azrai's derivation
may be of darker motivation. In other words, the desire for power may be
evil. Certainly, this doesn't mean that the character is evil...but the seeds
for corruption are there. It is this corruption that drives the awnshegh. The
more the character accesses the darker power of Azrai within, the more he gives
into this internal corruption. As time passes, he slowly changes. Physical
metamorphosis mirrors the metamorphosis of his soul from good to evil. If the
character has bloodform, he should resist the urge to use his blood powers. He
doesn't have to become an awnshegh...but to avoid he must resist evil urges.
Including the use of power he knows comes from an evil god. This is a great
opportunity for DMs wishing to provide a deep challenge for their players.
