Ghost race

Race ghost

Ghosts -- remnants of the dead who couldn't or wouldn't move on. Half-transparent, walk through walls, dislike sunlight and warm company.

With no flesh, poison and disease don't catch on them; dark energy is native; drowning isn't an option either. Ordinary weapons pass through with little trace. Holy power, though, cuts the spectral fabric like a knife through smoke -- blessing and prayer are deadly to them.

They see the living, the dead, and in the dark. They prowl silently, fly, swim, and pass through doors -- catching them is hard. In battle they strike whole areas, go berserk, dodge, and move fast.

Main haunts are Ghost Town and Graveyard. They turn up at times in libraries where someone died mid-chapter.
