It's possible, but maybe a little far fetched. The reason the Arisen is linked to the pawns is not because of what he/she was but because of what he/she has become. The linking pin here is the dragon. I think the pawn legion is just a tool for the dragon(s). I mean dragons can control and insta-kill pawns at will. The reason the Arisen can "control" them is because he/she is linked to the dragon.

You'd think the Dragonforged and other pawns would know this if it were true. Pawns live forever and the Dragonforged has lived for many Arisen cycles.

On the other hand a pawn is just an "empty shell". Perhaps the Dragon breeds them to find a suitable one to create an Arisen out of. Well. Let's wait for DD2 shall we?
