>>Interesting. Though moon mages are the only other guild that can achieve something akin to the lich-state with the Y'Shai...

Nobody really knows what's up with the Y'Shai and how Moon Mages managed to create them without corrupting themselves. If Moon Mages really did create them. Or if the creators really haven't corrupted themselves.

The Moon Mage Guild benefits from this lack of scrutiny and will continue to keep the Y'Shai outside of the spotlight for many, many years to come.

>>But it is not "technically" a lich, so no go on the necro label. Got it.

For the sake of the Necromancer-centric lore, a lich is "technically" defined as a permanent, self-imposed and self-powered undead state. The usual features of this state are extreme durability and the lack of a soul.
