Great videos, Tarot. Jen's response video made me think of a question that many people have asked in Q/A.. but I'm not sure if I've ever actually seen you answer it personally. It involves ghosts and skills.

Now the Lore says they can only learn the three ghost skills on their own, and in order to train any other skill they must possess a body. The question that always comes up, time and again, is what about skills that do not require a body? Skills such as persuasion, observation, and other things that don't really require a physical body to do. Can ghosts train these skills, or do they still have to possess someone to do it?

Low on silliness, I'll make up for it in the next one. :)

Also, I feel so bad. I didn't notice Evalin asking a similiar question. :( That's why I didn't mention you in the video! But I will address my inspirations in a later video!

The order! Uphold the order at all costs!

My specific ghost question is, what makes a person become a ghost, or rather, remain a ghost, and not just cycle on?

What is this process of remaining like in the first stages?

Thanks so much for the answer, it really did help. Not only did you give a mechanical reason for it, but an IC reason also. It always helps when the game mechanics can line up with in character reasons.

I'm planning a possible ghost character, Elaine!

Anyway, I had a ghost question, actually, regarding ghosts and Reimancy. I know that with Reimancy you must be initiated through the painful traumatic experience of having res basically shoved into every bit of your body. So my question is, if a ghost has the Reimancy skill and the possess somebody who has not been initiated into Reimancy, would the ghost be able to use their skill? Or do they need someone who has already been initiated?

Also, can ghosts suffer from overgiving, or does it only affect the possessed body?

well... uh... could a ghost use skills/abilities of the one they possessed?
and... Could a Ghost actually go through stuff/walls/floor/etc..? and how high could they fly actually? considering that they doesn't need oxygen, wouldn't it be fun if they fly up into the space, lol, jokes, but seriously... how high?

and I got this question about when a ghost player start playing. I mean, we rechieve a starter pack right? but (logically) ghost doesn't need and can't bring them, even the money's a real things which ghost should not be able to touch (materialization) for too long...
or did I miss something? (again)

And... could you tell us about Advantages in being a ghost? other than going through solid stuff... i can't really caught them...

sincerly :)

Materialization wouldn't let you touch money, Nellscha. You need Soulmist Projection for that. But I have also been wondering how high a ghost can fly. The lore says float, but what exactly does that mean?

YAY Verilian! You are Everett right? :3 *Pokes* And I think they can suffer if their soulmists affected by that. Everything depends on their soulmists! (as far as I know) If their soulmists get damages they'll recover slowly!

Nellscha well you can be visible whenever you want. You can interact with the world only if you want but if you interact with the world the world can interact with you BUT SPIRTISTS can interact them whenever they want.

Advantages that you don't need money, equipment you can travel wherever you want.

Disadvantages that in the start you can't really do so much things. You need to possess somebody for most things to do but it's not that easy in the first!

I'm not really pro at ghosts I might be wrong so correct me I need to learn too! :3 If You have any question you can pm me I try to awsner anyhow! ^^

PS: Sorry for my grammar and about my english :paranoid:
