A question about not-quite-split-personality things! I see there's some possession spirits/mind sharers here individually, but is it an option to bring lesser multi-influence people in under one character?

Like, David's trapped in rat morph, filtering his experiences through a rat brain that has various animal instincts and impulses of its own to which can take control or be resisted.

Patience's mind has untethered from her body and bonded to the body of an ape-intelligent animal, "Monica", who has her own complex emotional life and some ability to plan and communicate, but whose mind is also usually half asleep, so most of the time Patience controls her body. (Also, Monica is a dinosaur.)

If I brought David, could active animal instincts come too? If I brought Patience, could Monica be in there?
