 //I know I should probably get her exorcised, but Priscilla doesn't seem to be suffering or unhappy. Sure she sometimes spends the night meowing and tearing about, but she did that when she was alive, too. Besides, I really don't have any better way of dealing with all the ghost mice.//
-Spectres are ghosts, basically, and thus this class is only usually available in campaign worlds where ghosts are a thing (or at least some kind of viable alternative route to the same situation, like an incorporeal spirit or living hologram or something). This also means that it frequently pairs well conceptually with the [[Undead]] class.

You can freely move around, observe your environment, and engage in conversation, but anything else might or might not work.

All other abilities (including offensive effects that are not actually weapons) work normally against you. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Incorporeal Frustration:** All weapons that you use also have the same failure chance of 6 with all attacks as weapons used against you. Physically interacting with your environment in any way (such as opening a door, putting an object in your inventory, pulling a lever, etc) requires additional concentration and thus needs two actions to complete instead of the normal one. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Ghost On Ghost:** Another spectre exists on the same level as you do, and thus you interact with each other normally. All attacks and physical moves made against one another have no failure chance at all. |

You can choose to relinquish the possession any time you want, upon which point you will appear next to your former host. The host remembers nothing of the experience. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Sleepers Only:** You cannot possess anyone unless they are sleeping or unconscious at the time. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Shared Suffering:** If your host takes any damage while you possess them, you also take the same amount of damage. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Rough Rider:** If you continuously possess a creature for a full day, both you and they lose 1 Flesh from the experience and a further 1 Flesh for every subsequent day you stay inside them.
