Sorry for vanishing on you! I ended up not feeling that great, then had a couple kids to watch. 

So, I was thinking (dangerous, I know!). What if Ghent's race would allow him to have access to the more... "spiritual" side of things as well as a strong connection to magic? Like, creatures that may otherwise be difficult, at best, to attack in that plane of existence, would be free game to him? That could be something fun for him to find out, maybe by accident (and prove to be quite helpful in the long run).
