I don't think they specifically mentioned what it was, morf.

I didn't say they mentioned what it was, but I'm almost positive they said it was small...

OK but what about the big morphs then, why can't he use one of them and kill everyone around him. (knowing V3 he wants strong morphs and then he maybe have something that can break through force fields... or maybe not, but it would have been a very funny mistake of him)

yeah, could Alloran morph something big enough to make himself implode?

in fact, visser 3 does have a small morph. he morphed one in #38. don't remember exactly what it was. I only remembered a quote from ax "the visser finally learned bigger is not always better" or something like that.

That was in 38? I thought it was in one of the later books ... but ok. Yeah, it doesn't say what it was, just that it was something small.

I thought of something: Stunning Alloran every time he tries to morph would work. He wouldn't get himself stunned for the sake of inconveniencing Visser Three, at least not very often, for the simple reason that Visser Three's feeding time is the only time when Alloran gets his brain all to himself and he wouldn't want to spend that time unconscious.

Yeah, we thought of that on page one.

Well, I gotta figure that stunning would be the easiest, but if we want to talk the inconvenience of Visser Three (which probably wasn't a huge deal to him anyway), I gotta go with some of the previous statements and say bio-stasis. I mean, we saw it in 16; it still takes a second or two for someone who was in bio-stasis to snap out of it, but no long term side effects. Plus, even dracons on low power still singe and burn a bit, making that kind of stunning something the Visser would surely get annoyed with. Anywho, that's just my two cents.

He may burn, but a quick morph would cure that. :)

As well as killing a couple of subordinates . . . impractical?  Yes, I know.  But this is the same guy who thought that you could make a magic potion to do away with free will . . .

To be honest, I think the bio-stasis thing is likely, though stunning likely as well.  Perhaps they employed both?  Interchangably I mean -- one day use stunning, the next feeding time use bio-stasis?

Would it be possible, do you think, for the yeerk to soak up liquid and Kandrona with part of his body while maintaining control of the host's mind with the other parts of his body? They do take time to leave the body, and sever connections with the host's brain...

I mean, what if V3 has his own personal device that allows him to soak up Kandrona and maintain control of Alloran at the same time?  I mean, why wouldn't that be doable?

I have wondered if it would be plausible for the Yeerks to do that.

Nah, were it possible, they'd have mentioned it.

Can the yeerk go out even if the host is unconscious? And... is it even worth thinking about that they just beat him to make him pass out for a while...

In the last book they knock Alloran out, and order V3 to get out of his head, or they'll cut him out. He gets out.
