Most of the time, however, dead bodies only Awaken during the process of creating non-sentient [[Lifeless]], or '''Type II BioChromatic entities'''. These creatures are made via complex Commands that reanimate a dead person or animal. These Commands are guarded closely by those who know them.
Once a '''Lifeless''' is created, it will obey any instructions given to it that include a pre-determined '''Command Phrase'''. Human Lifeless are able to understand more abstract instructions than animal Lifeless. However, the skill of the [[Awakener]] who Awakens the
Breaths used to Awaken Lifeless cannot be recovered. This Breath will keep the Lifeless functioning for a long time. Lifeless can withstand wounds, but too much damage will eventually cause the Lifeless to cease activity, which means that Lifeless bodies need to be maintained and repaired (e.g. by sewing its wounds shut) when needed. One innovation in Lifeless maintenance is the use of [[ichor-alcohol]], a substance discovered by [[Yesteel]] that could act as blood for Lifeless and that greatly prolongs their viability.
