    Ironically enough, after going back through my 1.0 screenshots, it indeed seems that there was only one instance of tempering being actually referred to as such in 1.0, and it was stated by the most unlikely of sources, an apparent tempered themself! (during the main scenario quest 'Lord Errant' when the player is captured by the amalj'aa and held prisoner briefly in that cell in Zan'rak with several other prisoners):

    Perhaps even more interesting is the fact that if this npc really was tempered, the fact he actually comprehended his situation and actually knew what had happened to him, seems to blow away completely the idea that tempered lose their 'free will' - in actual fact, it seems more accurate that tempering removes a person's will to resist and become docile, while still retaining their consciousness more or less. Or at least, the response of that npc seemed to suggest that.
