Specters can also be Phospherescent Green...... I am.... though several names exist for Specters.... Specter or Spectre is my fav.... they can also be called revenates, spooks, or shades.... hence my signature name here in DF..... Dyshade..... Ghosts are very ethereal and cannot really interact with the living beyond become apparent to them.... hence the other widely used name for these Type A spirits..... Apparitions.... these type are usually harmless.... unless you have a heart condition that is... hehe... Poltergiests are Type B spirits.... capable of manipulating items around them and sometimes causing physical harm to the living through manipulating these objects.... they can also cause liquids to boil or freeze..... otherwise these spirits cannot manipulate the living...... just remember to duck when they toss stuff at you... thier aim is no better or worse than a living beings..... Type C Spirits are Spectres..... these are the most dangerous types as they can manipulate the flesh causing wounds to open or blood to flow.... as well as the rare ones that can actually siphon bits of life energy from a living being.....(Note: I do not believe that another living being can siphon this energy from a living being... if you want an explanation as to why let me know

) Specters can come in all colors of the rainbow as they can easily do all that Type A and B spirits can including manipulating the image of them that you see...... the older the spirit the more so it can manipulate its field of expertise....... an older ghost can cause sheer panic from its well crafted illusions..... an older poltergiest can lift and move larger items....... such as a bed....(Thinks of that Excorcist scene) or a dresser..... an older Specter can easily cause wounds to appear where ever on the body and in what ever largesse it wants.... such as Stigmata (thinks about that dumb Stigmata movie.... they really should have shown her nude dammit)
So there is my expostulation...... any questions???
