## **Introduction**

*Hey I'm Ghost. I like long walks in The Coal Ring, sunsets, and stealing your valuables. Good luck catching me though, because I can change into anyone around you. So if any guard asks about ghosts... They don't exist.*

## Description

### Appearance

Ghost is a 5'7" Changeling. As a changeling, Ghost has no "true appearance" but his preferred form is that of a kitsune or fox-folk. In this fox form, his fur is all black except for around his eyes and mouth which is a light reddish-brown with matching eyes and thin cat-like irises.

His most common roguish attire is a midnight black cloak with black leather armor beneath, with red trim around the hood. Ghost's cloak is one of his favorite items as well, acting as a Cloak of Invisibility which allows him to slink undetected in the shadows.

### Personality

Ghost is quiet and somewhat shy but will try to help in anyway he can. Such as in Episode 16 when he saw Joleyne laying there bleeding, Ghost could have left but instead he stayed to help.

## Story

### Background

Ghost wanted nothing more in his life then to help his parents move up from the coal ring in the city of gears. Being a changeling in the city of gears had its advantages especially when it came to doing what he did best, and what he did best was stealing to help support his family. When he was 15 his mother fell ill and his father couldn't afford the medicine off of a coalman's salary.

Ghost, trying to help his father, resorted to petty theft under the guise of working odd jobs around the coal ring. As his mothers condition worsened and Ghost realized he had to go big or go home to help his mother. At the age of 18 he attempted his first big heist after he heard rumors of a woman who went by the alias Arsene who resided in the coal ring as well.

After gathering information from a local inn, he discovered that Arsene lived near the inner part of the coal ring. In dire straights, Ghost set out to pull off the heist to help save his mother. Upon arriving at the home of Arsene, he started to pick the lock on the back door. He was shocked to feel a hand upon his shoulder and to his surprise it was Arsene herself. Ghost explained to her that his mother was ill and the reason he was picking the lock to her home was because he needed the money to help pay for the medicine his mother needed.

After hearing the story, Arsene threatened to turn him in to the city guards unless he steals a few things for her in return. Ghost accepted and set off with the list of things Arsene required. The first item on the list was golem dust, which was found in an alchemy shop in the steam ring. Ghost spent time scoping out the place and learning the shopkeeper's patterns. On the third night, he attempted the heist and after nearly being caught he succeeded in grabbing the golem dust and returned to Arsene with the item.

Arsene congratulated him and told him the last item she needed was Mercy’s bay leaf, which was located in the bronze ring at Professor Kazanjian's home. Upon entering the professor's home, he learned that Arsene used to be a former partner of the Professor until she learned that he was creating potions that caused mutations in people. After knocking over a chair, the Professor was alerted to Ghosts' presence and after grabbing the mercy leaf he fled as fast as he could back to Arsene.

After his return with the Mercy Leaf, Arsene crafted a potion to delay his mothers illness and proceeded to tell him that the ingredients were to test his skill. Sfter seeing his success, she decided to take him under her wing. By the age of 20, Ghost's mother was cured of her illness and became one of the best thieves in the coal ring, able to break in and out of homes and business like as his name suggests.

After returning from another small job, he discovers a note left on the door of Arsene’s home and upon closer inspection of the note learned that his mentor was captured by her former partner. To return her home safely, Ghost would have to steal the Hibernation Belladonna from the King of the City of Gears, in order for Arsene to return unmutated.
