    Default Shemhazai, Bullimic?

    Did anyone else notice this?

    Her technick/attack is called, 'Devour Soul'. Which means that she ate a creature's soul.

    Her Quickening/finishing move is called, 'Soul Purge'. Which means she is making herself hawk up those souls. Someone who purges is someone who makes themself throw up to lose weight.

    I wonder why Squeenix would name her attacks after stages of bullimia.

    "Purge" doesn't necessarily mean that she is "hawking" them up. Cleansing and purifying are perfectly acceptable definitions of the word.

    But I was also referring to 'Devour Soul', as in, eating souls, and then she 'purges' them.

    Maybe i'm just reading too much into this.

    It means that she is purging the souls as in expunging them.
