You decide to see if our blind friend is capable of tracking noises. You grab a nearby pebble and throw it down the street.
It moves, faster then you can believe, and inhales deeply. It stands there, seemingly sniffing out the location of the sound.
It then slowly turns around again. doesn't seem like it detected anything.
Suddenly, you hear footsteps and some grumbling. Slowly, a hobo comes in view, collecting cans and putting them in a rusty shopping cart.
He seems to be grumbling about how hard it is to find food.
The LAPMT sniffs again, then opens it's mouth VERY wide. It gives a scream and rushes forward. Even with the surrogate pipe as a foot it manages to get to the hobo before he manages to get away.
The creature grabs the hobo around the head, it's long claws functioning as a sort of cage, reaches over very close, and starts screaming. It is a scream that seems to fill you with dread. You can't help but feel cold at hearing it. After a rather short time, it releases the hobo, who falls to his knees.
When you come close you see his eyes are completely white and that his face in contorted into a scream. He seems to be breathing.
You've seen this sort of thing in story-books. The worst possible thing that could happen to any living creature.
Destroying the connection of the body and the soul. It leaves the body empty, but the soul in the purest agony. Death of the body would thankfully end the suffering of the soul.
Might be best if you just put this poor man out of it's misery.

I really hope the whole introduction of souls isn't too bad. I can ret-con it into something else if this is universally hated.
