Does that mean that Oz's spirit is losing its power and Oscar is integrating more and more of his knowledge and power without also assuming his personality? If it is the fate for Oscar to become the new Wizard, the first incarnation in recorded history not to share the first's personality and attitude, then things in the war may be about to change radicaly.

We were told by M&K some time ago that this is what would happen. Over time, the previous personality will fade out leaving the new host in control having inherited the memories, knowledge, and skills of the previous incarnation.
