Capsule Description: A petit-bon-ange is created via Voodoo ritual from a deceased human soul not in Heaven, Hell, or non-loa's Domain. Its Celestial Forces (the gros-bon-ange) are disconnected from the others, except for a tenuous thread. The Celestial Forces reside in the Domain of a loa; the others take a ghostlike existence on Earth. The configuration on Earth still acts normally with its Will and Perception, but for some Celestial purposes seems Remnant-like. However, the Forces have been known to re-meld and proceed to a final reward. More in next report.
