Profile

Irene Wyder, also known as Ghost, has her roots in germany. She grew up to a loving family.. and very little other love due to her looks. Due to this she was chased out public places and, eventually, homeschooled least she learned nothing.

As she grew older and found her powers she also learned the dangers with them, though she learned them far too late - resulting in more than one home-made amputation of something that was stuck inside a wall. It was not before she realized her ability to remotely control specially prepared puppets - and transfer the rest of her powers to them - that she was able to learn more safely.

When she grew old enough she fled to america, as far away from her kind family and the horrors of her childhood as she could get. She located a suitable, abandoned basement and rigged up a small place to live there, stealing what she need to survive.

Yet she wishes she could be more than a monster in the basement, and after many long months of work - with several Something for Dummies-books - she has crafted a body with which to walk the streets. A body which she can use to be a hero, perhaps even admired.

It's never too late to stop dreaming.

Description

Click to expand.

Ghost is tall and disturbingly thin, the kind of thin that suggests that not only does she not eat enough but that she barely eats at all. Her face is haunted and drained, with dark bags beneath her eyes.

Her skin is the pale of someone who knows that the sun exists and might even have seen a picture of it but never sees it in person. Or at least, most of her skin is pale. Her clawed hands and feet are blackened as if they'd been stuck in a fire, a blackness that only jaggedly fades halfway up her lower arms and legs.

Around the top of her head, positioned like a crown, is dozens of black horns the length of her finger pushing up through the black hair. At their base more of the black skin spreads out, reaching almost as far down as her eyes before fading to pale.

Adding to this is that she is disfigured. She is missing two fingers on her right hand - and everything below the elbow on her left. Several of her toes are gone on her left foot, while the right one is missing altogether. A few other spots and holes where it seems someone carved the flesh from the bones are also visible.

Personality

Click to expand.
When encountered in the flesh ghost is an easily scared figure who rather run than fight - and with her powers fleeing is a rather easy task. If cornered and unable to flee she is more likely to curl up and beg than to stand up and fight.

If interacted with at a distance, such as through one of her remote-controlled bodies, she can be far more herself. She is then kind, though she remains somewhat careful. She shows great compassion for those in bad situations, particularly ones that might mirror her own somehow, and she might even fight for them.

Perhaps worth to note is that she believes herself to be a monster, though that does have created the urge to create another her - one that is not a monster.

Abilities

Click to expand.

INVISIBILITY
Ghost can turn invisible to the naked eye and many other methods of sight, though it is not completely perfect.

PHASING
Ghost can phase through solid matter and many kinds of shields, though she cannot carry much with her while doing so as the range of her ability is not very long.

POSSESSION

Ghost can prepare certain objects to permit her to possess and remotely control them. They need, however, to be humanoid, about human-sized, and have some kind of joints to move. In addition she can only control one at a time - and entering one can take several minutes if she doesn't have physical contact with it.

Skills

COBBLED TOGETHER
Ghost is good at cobbling together things from parts, or take them apart to put them back together. The result might be fragile or barely functional - but it can still work. Of course, this only works on simple things..

READING

Ghost is used to having to read up on things before she tries them, and is good at reading and taking in what she reads. It does help compensate for all the things she does not know.

Resources

SAFEHOUSE
Ghost has made her base inaccessible from the outside for anyone unwilling to knock down a wall. It is not pretty, but it does contain running water and electric power.

STORE BOUGHT

With her ability to pass by walls with ease, Ghost can generally acquire anything available in a store. Of course, taking anything more than cans of food or some random clothes is bound to draw unwanted attraction.

Weaknesses

Click to expand.

CRIPPLED
Ghost is quite crippled and is highly limited in her movements and actions. She is slow and unable to do more than one thing at a time - she only has one hand.

MONSTER
Ghost believes herself to be a monster and, consequently, may end up choosing alternatives that punishes her to some degree, even when it is not needed. Generally by missing chances or spoiling a victory in some way.

PHYSICAL COMBAT

Ghost's fragile body is extremely ill suited for any kind of hand-to-hand combat. In addition to the physical deformities.
