Lots of weird stuff. He can infuse it into himself or into things around him as a power boost or to control it, he can make auras around himself or in an area from it, or just use it to attack or curse someone. Different deaths create different ectoplasm, which change his powers to have a variety of strange effects. For instance, an attack using Cold Wind ectoplasm, harvested from a death from exposure or a sky burial, is an icy attack that can inflict frostbite.


I love the idea my only concern is that it could easily become OP or get out of hand. I'll wait for hedge though

I think it bears mentioning that his powers are very subtle. Like unless he gets access to a really absurd amount of ectoplasm (like say, someone fights him in a graveyard, or where a lot of people just died) he's not going to be doing anything particularly earth-shaking. As I said, his powers amount to lots of weird stuff.

It's a definitely neat idea, but I think something more consistent would be a better idea for you. Often being more worthless in a fight than Willow/Pers should say something xD

I wouldn't say to give it up completely, but maybe tweak it somehow to make it a little more reliable? I don't think it'd be too out of the realm of possibility.

Hey @Dead Cruiser,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I should have really replied to this sooner but got slightly waylaid by things today.

So, we currently have a bit of a tie break going on, with one Co-GM on either side of the fence. So I guess I actually have to do my job for once and make a decision!

I will say that the power is very neat. You can tell that you have really thought this concept through. That being said however, I personally don't think it is a good fit for the universe. I appreciate that you say that it is highly underpowered, but with a power that is so broadly defined as this, it can be very easy for something to become over powered, whether the intention is there or not. Not saying that you would overpower it of course.

The original version of this RP didn't really include any Supernatural elements, mainly to avoid certain situations like these. I hope this doesn't put you off joining the RP at all.

If need be I can omit the concept of different types of 'plasm to keep his powerset more constrained, but I would power it up considerably to compensate.

We don't mean to offend, but we really don't see this power working in the RP. It poses to many potential problems. From being to powerful, to your character potentially not having enough power resources and being relatively weak, thus perhaps bringing up a conversation at a later date about how to fix that.

Unfortunately, none of the GM team has ever wrote anything with you, so we aren't sure just how much leeway we can allow - not saying you aren't a diligent and trustworthy writer.

My opinion would to be to perhaps come up with a different power. If you prove you are trustworthy, then we will be more than happy to reconsider this power (because it's awesome and I really do hate to veto it.)

Again, we aren't trying to be mean, and we hope that you still consider the RP.

Yeah I didn't really have any other ideas that were clicking so much. I'll think it over but I don't know if I have any other material I feel as good about.

It's been a hot minute. I'd like to apologise for kinda ghosting last time. I know I messaged Hedge when my internet was out, but I didn't update when it was back, and it was shitty of me to forget about it.

Would you guys have me back?
