I think, that the stting in the throne sucked up all of his psychic power.

Pychic power is what i think that gave them their immortality.All the introduced perpetuals seem to have some sort of psychic ability the only exception seems to be of those serving the cabal (John and Damon).(I think John has and maybe even Damon but i may have missed it)

Their forms of reincarnation also are different. With Alivia (in "Wolf Mother") after Severian stabbed her, her body seemed to have healed and her soul brought it back ( similar to Vulkan). With John its different in that his "soul or memories" enter a new body prepared by the cabal ( it might be the same for Damon) this is actually a lot like the theory of quantum teleportation. The warp maybe have allowed this things to happen.
