==Character Creation: Game Rules== ===Sphere Ratings=== *'''Soma 4''' *'''Sophia 5''' *'''Pneuma 6''' ''Ghost Dragons'' are unusual in that they are adept magi, but weak at charisma and manipulation. They are amongst the most effective, learned and puissant necromancers in the Realm however, especially when it comes to dealing with restless spirits. <br><br> ===Birthrights=== '''Deathsight''' - ''Ghost Dragons'' can visualise the energy they call ''Deathforce'', which flows into the world from the ''Void Beyond'', and surrounds that which is touched by death. With Ghostsight they can instantly identify if someone is dying, if a creature is alive or dead (or undead), can detect even the most subtle of necromantic magics, can determine to the nearest year how old any creature is, and to the nearest five years how much longer they would likely survive before death from old age, natural causes or pre-existent disease were to take them. '''Voidtongue''' - Undead, elemental creatures of death energy and (rare) ghosts typically do not communicate in mortal fashion, instead simply moaning and wailing. When these entities do speak they speak ''Voidtongue'', the empty and formless language of the nothingness beyond. This language is somewhat unique in that it can never be learnt - even by the most skilled linguist - but ''Ghost Dragons'' find they can understand and speak it intuitively. <br><br> ===Flaw=== '''Masque of Disquiet''' - ''Ghost Dragons'' make for disturbing and unpleasant company. Their voices seem soft, but also seem to cause others to feel uncomfortable. Their physical forms seem basically normal (if unhealthy), but there is something oddly wrong about the way they move. On actions relating to any positve socialisation (i.e. any socialisation except intimidation and attempts to cause fear or discomfort) ''Ghost Dragons'' must remove any dice they roll that roll a "6". These "6s" neither count towards achieving a success, nor contribute to the power of an action. When dealing with other ''Ghost Dragons'', ghosts, undead or any other creature that speaks ''Voidtongue'', this flaw is not activated. '''Fated''' - If you are using the default metaplot, the ''Ghost'' breed as a whole has a major world-changing event ahead of it that will happen inevitably on a certain date, and beyond player control. Players who select this breed should be aware that the metaplot has this surprise in store and that they probably won't be able to do anything about it. <br><br>
