Ghost Flaws

General Ghost Flaws • Spectre Flaws

Ghost flaws refer to inborn disabilities, problems, or aversions that are only exhibited by ghosts. They generally represent problems or struggles unique to them because of their existence as bodiless spirits, and many of them, if visible, immediately indicate that the user must be supernatural in origin (not that this is usually in question for ghosts, if anyone sees them at all).

Some ghost flaws are even more specific, being most often manifested only by members of a specific Guild or Legion, although it is not always certain whether it is impossible for other ghosts to have these flaws or simply very, very unusual.
