Okay, now, I'm not stepping on anyones toes here, BUT, as another player, I AM concerned about this.

Manipulating objects,
possessing live creatures, (those without a soul are easier to posses)
Influencing phenomena in a small scale
Pyromancy
The power to banish all who he kills with his holy hook
Can see things that live people can not
Teleportation
Invisibility
Immortality
Indestructibility(as long as the attack or weapon doesn't affect souls or ghosts)
Can pass through objects


That's both a lot of powers, and quite a few incredibly overpowered ones. Indestructible? Possess other PC's? Phasing? This is basically god-level power and it's unsettling to see this pass through and NOT be labelled as overpowered

@ViolentViolet Not posses PC, I never mentioned that.
Indestructible by normal means. I'm just being logical here. Do you expect to hit a ghost with an ordinary bullet or slash it with a common sword?
Ghosts can phase, that's general knowledge.
I mean, just tell me something that you know ghosts couldn't do and isn't in the lore listed there.

Powers(Nothing too overpowered please):

possessing live creatures, (those without a soul are easier to posses)
Influencing phenomena in a small scale
Pyromancy

You could do a couple of things to make him a tad less overpowered.

  • Can pass through objects, power to banish those that he kills with his holy hook - If you're going to pick a fight against a demon or vampire and unleash your unbridled fury upon them without them even being to hit you, that'd be terribly unfair. My suggestion is that the character would have to possess a body first before being able to physically touch anything on the material plane. That way, he might not be able to teleport or become invisible while in this form, but he will still be able to use pyromancy and influence phenomena.
  • Teleportation - There needs to be at least a cooldown time or limit for this ability. If you're going to get into any player-vs-player conflict, you would be able to fully capitalize on the ability, thus granting you the win immediately.
  • Invisibility, Immortality, Indestructibility - "as long as the attack or weapon doesn't affect souls or ghosts"
    I'd be completely fine with that. Just don't go overboard
  • Overall, your character is a ghost. Don't go around hitting people on the material plane while keeping yourself completely intangible.

@ChickenTeriyaki Well thing is, a demon is also a tainted spirit or that's how I officially now of it so it's probably on the same level as a ghost or even more powerful fueled by hell but has more weakness to holy powers.

Teleportation is just a means of fast travel. Where is the fun in spamming it? It would make every other ability useless.

All these races aside, you have magic. If you want to even the scales, using magic you could easily damage ghosts, trap them or whatever with runes. There are many incantations, spells that could trap a ghost, force it to pass on, weaken it and all that. Salt for example weakens them and they don't have infinite power themselves so they need rest after using enough energy and during that rest they can't manifest into the physical plane and their powers in general weaken.

And you can't really balance all the supernatural races. Some are superior to others or you can just add powers to them to make them equal if you want.
1v1 a ghost vs some creature on the physical plane with no means of harming the spirit, the ghost would win every time.

Well, some have made CSs before you came in and have already been accepted. They just haven't posted yet. We're also trying to get one member to be fair to other members.

@ChickenTeriyaki
About your current avatar, it looks kind of like Slenderman without the tentacles to me. I'm sure it's probably not though.

I'm going to change my post. It shouldn't be common practice, but i sort of feel like i'm wasting everyone's time by being careful... :/ And so, Slacky wakes up.
If the GM/OC approves...?

Should I assume this ball of fur is Ethan?

I see it, but I'm trying give everyone that's been accepted a chance to introduce their characters.

I'm typically the 'bad cop' when it comes to keeping things fair. Just because some lore has it, doesn't mean you should be a douche and be insanely overpowered. Normally people don't like that and get salty, but it keeps it fair lol xD

@letmehaveone2 I sure hope so...
I'll just leave this the way it is and be patient... I would just love to see this work..

@ViolentViolet
I know what you mean..
It requires a fair and honest player to make it work...
There's not to many of them out there, though.

I'm one who doesn't do things by the book or lore mainly cause I don't WANT to. These characters I have, they're not from anywhere except my own mind. I'm a creative person.

Just so you know, I get some pretty crazy ideas for characters.
