==Capabilities==
The user with this ability either is or can transform into a ghost, spirits/souls of the dead, often bound to stay until certain conditions are met. This can vary from honorable burial, unfinished business/revenge or self-appointed duties. This is an inherently Esoteric Physiology.
Ghosts have been known to be able to fly, phase through solid matter, turn invisible, and possess the bodies of the living. Normally, ghosts can’t die because the user is already dead. They are no longer affected by physical forces and have no physical weaknesses. They have unlimited stamina and have no need for sleep, food, nor water. Their presence can also be indicated by a cold spot in a room. Ghosts sometimes terrorize the living by moving objects with their minds, tapping into the minds of others, appearing out of nowhere, and inducing immense fear.
