Good Morning fellow paranormal enthusiasts and occult scholars. I have a few queries for you.
>Do Liches in the traditional definition exist?
>Is the phylactery a physical object or can it exist in an alternative plain where the Lich can wander between, or is it even needed?
>Do you think a Lich or Liches orchestrate the operations of the top 8000-8500 people of the world? I continue to hear a of a dark presence that forever seeks death, destruction and debauchery and many text's descriptions seem to point to a Lich
>How does one start on the path to lichdom?
>Any books on real liches or ceremonies and rituals to begin upon the path that you know of?
All I seem to find are World or Warcraft or Dungeons and Dragons nonsense. Regardless, I plan to continue digging, for the journey to Lichdom can very well be a lifelong one and require much research on the part of the mage.

The reason all you see is fantasy RPG content is because that's where it came from. The word lich originally meant a corpse, the monster type is based loosely around Koschei the Deathless from Russian legend.
DnD has always tended to be combat heavy, and they early on needed a lot of variety in that department, so they ended up just taking every critter from every folklore they could lay hands on and making each one a different kind of monster. So you have things that were essentially the same thing with different names in different languages having different stats and powers, and often it isn't particularly authentic.
You want to be an undead wizard? Start by being a wizard. Also, you could've found out everything I just told you in ten minutes on wikipedia.

The lich as you know it is purely D&D and similar thing. Sorry, you're more likely to get actual immortality (well, agelessness at least) than becoming a skeleton that's somehow existing in material plane AND animated while still also able to anchor your sou.
lich comes from the german leiche, that means corpse. if u want to be a lich shoot urself in the head or die some other way. also, if u want to believe in esoterik shit do it while u place crystals all over ur body in fuckin pyramid shit. bonus points if u kill yourself in paris louvre shit.
now kill yourself while asking gypsy whore or mahatma gandhi what u would be reborn as in afterlife.
so enraged i forgot half of my rant for ur wheeaboo shit.
KYS

yes,physical,no that's all human. Don't be a Lich nigga.
Ok, so if liches have no basis in legends, can we move discussion onto the process of becoming a shade?
yes i believe in aliens, maybe god exists too. but that lich shit is so fucking shitshit. hey, MAYBE vampires could exist but LICHES??? man. how far spaced away from earth are you? skeleton magicians? really! yup, i took the bait. it was delicious.

Try the draugr, strigoi, or other revenants.

There's always apotheosis.
>>19160827
you're finding all this fictional stuff because liches are imaginary, my friend. the word "lich" describing an undead wizard pretty much originated in dungeons and dragons
