I was recently just messing around designing an NPC mage trapped into a cyberzombie body when a thought occured to me.

Since the mage is trapped in the cyberzombies body and is still capable of doing magic can he still channel spirits? If so would the physical attribute boost and immunity when channeling great form spirits still apply?

Now heres an interesting thought. Wince the spirit is basically posessing the cyberzombie would it have to make the same escape test as the magican? What if it fails? Would you have the attribute boost for good or not?
