How does the Didact transfer his judgement into Bornstellar? I mean, its like the old Didact transferred himself into Bornstellar, forming a new Didact! And plus Bornstellar seems like he himself was replaced by the Didact. Argh! So confusing!

That's what happened though. Didact helped Bornstellar mutate into his first form and that left the imprint of his mind in Bornstellar. Bornstellar is still technically there, but he is infused with Didact too, and Didact tends to win out on Bornstellar.

Both are fully represented in Born's body. The Didact wins out because think about it: the Didact is 10 000 years old, Born is about 12, I believe, at the end of Cryptum. The Didact is a Promethean, the most highly disciplined guild of the Warrior-Servant rate. I think he would win a mental contest with Born. So he starts to assert himself over Born.

The Didact imprinted on him.

Imaginine that you were a very insecure person, who's best friend was The Didact, now imagine you spend every day of your life with him, soon his personality would take over yours. That is what I think happened. Or, more probably, the Brevet Mutation changed his brain chemistry.

Evidence would point to the BM changing more than just his brain chemistry. His entire body undergoes the change into an algamation of almost all the Rates. It was also stated that once a Forerunner undergoes a mutation, a "standard" one, they mature incredibly so and are changed mentally, not just physically. One can safely assume that his brain chemistry is different from the fact Born has the entire imprint of the Didact in his mind.
