Regular people can be possessed by demons, and are still dangerous, but they are not abominations. Abominations have access to a mage's full power -- even a weak mage turned into an abomination is dangerous -- while a possessed human (or possessed anything) is only as dangerous as the demon that did the possessing.
Thank you Mr. Gaider! Or is it David? One of you said it made you feel old when I used Mr...David Gaider wrote...

My understanding is that you don't have to dream to be possessed. Demons possess cadavers all the time, and they obviously don't dream. It's a good question about the dwarves though. I don't recall any possessed dwarves in the game now that I think about it.Collider wrote...

He said they are only as powerful as the demon so I guess if the demon had magic he could bring it into his host but he can't uses the awesome supply of magic that a mage has inherently. At least I think that is what he meant.HarryThePlotter wrote...

This begs the following question:
Do demons have no magic on their own SIMILAR to that of Mages? Clearly put, Do demons have only blood magic and not the normal "Fade" magic?

No no. You have to let me in. Hurry, can't you feel the templars sword at your neck. While you are in here you are everything that they hate...andar91 wrote...
One thing I've always wondered is how possesion works. Is it by force or do they have to tempt and trick the mage? If it IS by force, is it a battle of wills or an actual fight with fireballs and everything?
So it is only possible for a possessed person to propagate an abomination if said possessed person, whom I shall proclaim the possessee, is a part of the magical persuasion, whereas if the possesee is prevalently prosaic, then the power of proceeding product of the pairing of possessor and possessee is precisely parallel to that of the possessor’s incipient power?David Gaider wrote...

They do not dream naturally, but that does not mean they do not have a connection to the Fade-- otherwise they wouldn't be able to enter it at all (and they can, if they are dragged in). That's different from Tranquil. Tranquil have no connection to the Fade and cannot be possessed, ever.

But but, then babies do (or did) come from fade spirits. Wynne was wrong. Everything I know is a lie!HarryThePlotter wrote...
Hmmmm........
So all the sentient species in thedas have this common trait. Connection to fade..... That is a good indicator to write the book "Origin of Species in Thedas" - by Chantry Brother Darvinus.

This made me think of something. Can the demons still go inside a dead Tranquil's body? I know when a demon goes into the body of something, they become those undead-thingies but I'm not sure if the bodies have a link to the fade or no.

Wait a second... in the mage tower, there was a room with a powerful Shade in it... there were a few tranquils standing there around a central statue-type thing, and the Shade would convert them into lesser Shades over time. Kind of like Uldred with the mages.
Was the shade just using their life essence to summon another Shade or something?
