Most of the "mortals turned voidsent" we see look pretty dead, right??So I'm going to bring up a weird case regarding how voidsent take away your personality, which is the Forgall fight in Weeping City. When Forgall raises the dead sky pirates in the arena, they actually start talking and begging for mercy and lamenting their fate, and it seems unlikely Forgall is making them do that. And it's not like they've just been afflicted by the slow zombification like we get, they're dead when we get there. No other void risen dead people seem to do this, but maybe because all the others we've seen have been dead for a long time?
I guess it's still down for debate whether there's nothing left of their former personality because they died & were replaced by a separate being, or because their former selves were slowly depleted and transformed until unrecognisable...
Either way, it's pretty certain that they're "gone" (dead or destroyed or both), and that there is now a voidsent occupying the space that they used to occupy. I guess the mechanism by which it occurs is sort of inconsequential.
I suppose the pirates weren't exactly possessed, though it is kind of hard to say, but maybe you can be controlled by the void and not lose your memories and such?
As for summoning voidsent, oh yeah those guys who do it with rituals are for sure dead.
