I think it could be interesting if Bolaire does end up as some sort of construct.
Like. I can see ‘find a solution to Bolaire’s rotating body problem’ becoming a potential long-term goal for the Schemer’s and a Warforged body theoretically wouldn’t be prone today decay or even need to be as meticulously maintained as a human body. Bolaire’s found a temporary solution in seemingly farming the bodies of criminals from Noted Club that Criminals Frequent, but I could easily see the more moral Schemer’s attempting to find a permanent fix to it all so he doesn’t have to keep doing that.
Like. There’s so much potential with Bolaire. He clearly values the life and identity he’s built for himself and the sense of personhood he’s found with Hal over everything else. I believe he was telling the truth to Hal, just not the entire truth. I feel like the inevitable arc of the Schemer’s story is going to rip that life away from him, expose all the horrors he had to commit in order to maintain it and possibly force him from Dol-Makjar (I think it’d be a very cogent way to facilitate a table swap/reshuffling). I’m excited to see whatever they end up doing with him, but honestly I think some kind of workaround with a mechanical body/proxy could be suggested as a ‘solution’ at some point, even if it doesn’t work. What does a body need to have in order for him to be capable of possessing it? Would Beastfolk be immune because the mask can’t fit on their face, or does that not matter? Knowing Brennan and Taliesin it’s more likely than not for all this to get explored and I for one can’t wait.
