    The very Huakke Manor dungeon has you having to rescue wailers before they get turned, so yeah, Voidsent can absolutely turn others.

    Oh yeh cant forget the awesome Lightwardens! Are there any opposite sich Darkwarden? Remember a normal person cant kill a Lightwarden easily cuse when they die the light exposes and turn people nearby into sim eaters. So i hope we can meet a darkwarden that does the same effect,
    Sin Eaters is a twisted name that came about as people ironically considered these creatures came from the heavens to punish them for their sins; the eating part... well because they eat people. The people of the First don't actually know what eaters are, they're merely held up by superstition and fear of unknowing. Ont he source Voidsent were given their name by scholars who have studied the entities enough to know from where they came.

    On the topic of power levels, do note that eaters and voidsent are not alive, they are essentially physcial manifestations of their respected aether. The Voidsent we engage on the source will always be of diminished strength because the scale of Dark to Light is still somewhat even. On The First with Light being in abundance meant every eater we faced was at its natural strength.

    The specific mechanism of this is mentioned in the lorebook - it's not that they're directly turned into voidsent, but that they're killed and then a voidsent can possess the body.

    It's a technicality of course, with the same final result, but still.
