No.1 Possession Fan

this does seem to have a visual effect (red eyes for the Erkling's Wild Hunt, purple shadowy nonsense for the ID equivalent).

so some of the deadrabbits presumably ARE, well, dead and subsequently reanimated by the Erlking, which is why some of them have the red eyes, and why some of them (earlier in the canto) don't if i recall correctly...

i also find it rlly interesting how the ID version can only keep a revivee up for one turn, but the Erlking's can last for a few more (even if they are pretty easy to take down). maybe that's just a matter of experience with using such a thing, though?

THE DEAD RABBITS EARLY ON NOT HAVING RED EYES BUT STILL HAVING THE MESSED UP SKILL NAMES IS STILL MILDLY CONFUSING TO ME B UT I 'M NOT QUESTIONING IT TOO HARD

they don't even have no visible eyes they have One pupil and it's Not Red. What's going on with you guys . And it's just these ones at the very start i'm pretty sure all the rest have red eyes. plus when they speak they have a weird effect on their voice and talk in a slow/strained manner similar to the messed up skill names so i assume something is still off about them in the same way as the red eyed ones but theyAHEM I'M NOT WORRYING ABOUT IT I MEAN

traits of these specific dead rabbits:

lack the red pupils that wild hunt summons have; <- 1 point to "❌NOT Wild Hunt Summons"

seemingly have the ability to speak independently which i assume wild hunt summons cannot do; 1 point to "❌NOT Wild Hunt Summons"

but when they do speak their speech is choppy and trails off into ellipses, which is similar to the wild hunt summons' skill names; 1 point to "✅Wild Hunt Summons"

also they do just flat out have skill names that trail off into ellipses like wild hunt members; 1 point to "✅Wild Hunt Summons"

But Some of Their Skill Names Are Instead Cut Off with Dashes And Stuttering Instead? That's Just A Them Thing, I Don't Know What It's About; 1 point to "❔?????????")

conclusion:
