What effect does getting cursed have on the mind? When a human is transformed, do they retain their memories and sense of self, or do they forget who they once were and become rewired to follow their new instincts (i.e. identity death)?
I plan to work the explanation into the story sometime in the future but ill answer it a little now for clarity since you asked. ^_^ the curse is meant to work as a sort of virus that infects the hosts blood transforming them. for most who are infected, they lose there sense of self for the most part and lose there memory. however that isn't always the outcome of being curse. some who get infected are able to retain there sense of self through the transformation but nobody knows why some retain there identity.
also my boyfriend
me :-:
Not sure what that last part means, but thank you for clarifying. Transformation is definitely one of those things that leave a lot of wiggle room for interpretation of being. I wonder if we'll see any remnants of once-humans-now-cursed around the island later on?
Edit: By remnants like journal entries and signs of change.
