Alright, let me know if I'm hitting the right notes. Here goes:

[h2]Schnupfen[/h2][sup][h3]2★ | Shadow | Level 1[/h3][/sup][/center]
[indent][b]Appearance:[/b] Schnupfun is a murky, semi-amorphous humanoid mass of darkness about the size of an average person. His typical form is the upper half of a hooded figure clag in dark rags just light enough to contrast the abyssal blackness within, which spills out from the bottom of his threadbare garb in an ever-shifting, formless plume. Though he lacks a face, the shadows within his hood bear one feature, most easily observable in profile: a huge nose, which protrudes outward like a great beak. The arms that Schnupfen manifests are scrawny and clawed, while the eyes he manifests boggle outwards in bulbous, glassy globes, with concentric rings of black highlighted in [url=https://media.tenor.com/9LKVs46juDwAAAAM/hypnotic-concentric.gif]eerie pink and cyan[/url] ever collapsing inward

[b]Personality:[/b] As ghosts go, Schnupfen is an interesting one. For starters, he’s a ‘naturalborn’ ghost, and was never human at any point to begin with. Despite this, he has some exceptionally human quirks. He is a humorless, obsessive-compulsive hypochondriac somewhat flanderized by his magic allergy, highly concerned with neatness, cleanliness, order, and organization. He’s reasonably intelligent, fairly passive-aggressive, somewhat paranoid, and very given to complaining, but he’s not entirely antisocial and can easily bond with others through commiseration. Since he’s not great at fighting due to his low attack power and highly abusable weakness, he prefers tricks to straight combat, but within the dungeon he’s quite competent at his other jobs, most notably communication, reconnaissance, spying, and distraction. He takes pride in doing a good job, to the point where he doesn’t mind being compared to a butler, and is quick to criticize those he views as incompetent or lazy, and get into their business; one might say that he is 'nosy'. He’s actually somewhat creative as well, not just in dungeon affairs but also when it comes to dealing with adventurers. He likes clear air, pleasant smells, and anti-magic measures

[b]Abilities:[/b]
[list][*]Manifest - Having a malleable form, Schnupfen can create new eyes, mouths, and arms wherever on his body he wants them, and he can coordinate the use of a remarkable number of them at once. Of course, other than dark vision, said structures have no superhuman capabilities
[*]Incorporeality  - Being a ghost, Schnupfen can not only float, but phase through walls as long as he’s in shadow form, giving him peerless speed and ease of travel within the dungeon. He’s also practically immune to physical attacks in shadow form, although any kind of magic (even dark magic) can still hit him
[*]Shadow Puppetry - Schnupfen is adept at creating all kinds of shadow figures with his hands, making use of Manifest to utilize as many hands as needed. The shadows he casts in this manner assume can assume an uncanny level of realism if he’s focused enough. These shadow puppets are purely visual, of course, and can’t act on their own or attack at all, but they can be pretty scary
[*]Impressions - With a voice almost as malleable as his form, Schnupfen is good at mimicking other people’s voices, and even the noises made by various beasts. Combining this talent with his Shadow Puppetry, he can play some pretty convincing tricks, whether to deceive or just to scare
[*]Sunlight Weakness - Schnupfen is extremely weakened by exposure to sunlight (as well as holy light) and can’t use any of his abilities in their presence, even floating; he’s forced to drag himself along by whatever hands he had manifested prior to exposure
[*]Magic Allergy - Schnupfen is extremely allergic to magic. Even being in its presence congests and discomforts him, while direct exposure to magic causes an allergic reaction. He starts sneezing, his nose starts running, his eyes start watering, and he can no longer assume shadow form, which also renders him vulnerable to physical attacks. It takes at least five minutes with no exposure to magic for him to recover and use his abilities again[/list]
[b]Notes:[/b] By default, Schnupfen has a slight German accent and a reedy, nasal voice, as if he’s always got a slight cold. His physical stats are on par with (or slightly below) an average human male, and as one might expect, he has a magic deficiency[/indent]
