I was antiDean but I always took the Dean Scream to be just him trying to fire up his supporters after a disappointing loss . He was laughing and smiling before and after the scream . I thought the way the media was portraying it as him being in a crazy rage was moronic . Of course later experience has shown me that the media was just trying to eliminate Dean as a contender for the presidency that year , because they ' re propagandists for the DNC . <| sep |> I remember the thing about possessing minds and replanting them , but I think the Lurcher actually revives itself ? Was the interview specifically about the Lurcher ? I don ' t remember reading about that one . They are also temporarily halted by the luminescent light abilities . It wasn ' t an interview but a blog post and specifically about the commanders , but the lurcher seems to be very similar if not the same kind of situation . I am not sure that the lurcher revived itself in the same place . Also , the lurcher that revived itself was not the one that was stopped by light abilities those were the bioluminscent lurchers in the open world only , which could be argued to be such because they ' re basically glowing plants bred and raised in darkness . Nothing to do with shadow magic there give bright light to anything that ' s used to darkness and it ' ll be stunned from the blindness . I think the difference could simply be the quantity of magic available . Elder Dragons must be huge concentrations of their own type of magic and energy amassed during ages . Presence of death magic in the world is probably not found in such concentrated form , and small traces of it would simply pass through dragon minions just as it has to somehow do with mortal people . But when all that magic or energy is suddenly let back loose instead of natural Elder Dragon hibernation and bleeding , the results may be allnew . Here ' s the problemWith dragons seeping their magic back out , if their dragon magic was the same that we mortals use then the first Elder Dragon should be fully capable of consuming every dragons ' magical domain with no problem whatsoever , because those other Elder Dragons are not eating it but letting it out . There would be plenty of all magic in the world when the first Elder Dragon wakes up . In other words , Primordus and the DSD should have been capable of eating crystal and plant magic for 200 years . We do not see this happen .
