Do Dragons descended from Wutteat Comprehend Paradox?
sciborg2:
Wutteat, AFACITell, has a soul and this is what sustains his undeath.
But the other dragons, from what I understand, are soul-less beings and this is why they can be controlled by the No-God.
Yet the way they speak in the series, they seem more like full entities when compared to the Sranc and the Skin-Spies.
So...does this mean they have souls? That they are soul-less but have a link to the Outside in order to breathe fire?
SmilerLoki:
There are some rumors circulating that imply dragons are perhaps living Ciphrang or moving topoi, although for the life of me I cannot find any quotes confirming it.

Bakker did say something about how the Chorae pain dragons because they are distortions of living beings...have to find the quote because it didn't make sense to me how dragons were significantly different from Sranc in that regard...

It is incredibly unclear. By hunch is they are souled. But they are also something like cybernetic organisms. In other words, they are living things grafted onto literal machines. And the power source? Actual miniature versions of the Inverse Fire.
I can't back any of this up at all. But one thing is that Wracu show none of the "hallmarks" of being without a soul, with the exception of some sort of connection to the No-God. But all other tekne beings without souls have clear limitations like being unable to comprehend paradox for skin-spies or being near something like instinct-machines like Sranc/Bashrags.
So my guess is they are souled, but they still have some inbuild mechanisms that render their connection to the No-God stronger than other souled beings.
Then again, none of them seem to really show being outright controlled in the way Scranc or Bashrags do. So, that might have just been pure propaganda/misinformation. Skafra, for example, sure makes a "show" of itself as a sort of thinking/doing independent being to some degree. Not that this really proves much, they could simply just be the most sophisticated of the un-souled things.
Wilshire:
The Inchoroi only had 1 dragon - Wutteat The Destroyer of Worlds. They found him in space somewhere, probably Cybertron or whatever.
Jokes aside, 1 dragon as template to create the Wracu. The Wracu are to Wutteat as Sranc are to Nonmen, as Skin Spies are to Humans.
They are just another weapon. We know the Inchoroi can't make souls on purpose, so I think its safe to assume that the Wracu do not have souls.
