Please make it that ghosts can greet/be greeted? It would be a huge encouragement to all those who want to keep their ghosts for RP. Is it that hard to be implemented or are there so many ways one could twink this that it's not worth to? |

They are dead. Sooner or later they must go meet their fate or rely on the shaman. A |

I do feel bad for Kalaron and Gasbah because I am one of the few who those two know and can manifest to. What of a way for them to manifest to the shrines of their Lords or Ladies if called by a fellow follower. Or called to a shrine of the spirits? |

I don't know, it is kind of fitting that a ghost who hangs on to the mortal plane finds it harder and harder, eventually fading into obscurity. I know it's tough OOC wise, but it seems to fit RP wise. |

RPwise, I think seance could get more use. A |

When I had my shaman character, I'd get seance requests from ghosts fairly regularly and was always happy to hold a seance for them for a while so they could go see who they wanted to see. Doesn't seem like such a big deal unless shaman aren't doing that. |

I still dont see why the game should discourage RP and make it more difficult. I mean, ghosts can only manifest to RP, give advice, talk talk and talk. I dont think a ghost can do anything else. A's option of seanse is a good one, but. a) There are too few shamans. b) Not every shaman wants to spend time/mana for you. c) I get stressed when I am keeping a shaman's concentration/mana/time and I dont feel free to roam around and RP. d) There's not a single shaman at most of the times I login. Why not allow ghosts to RP? This is their only reason for existing after all. With Kalaron, my last greeted character is Lirimaer. Other than that, I can only manifest so that my targets will get a tell from Kalaron, instead of someone. And being manifested to send TELLS will use up mana pretty quick. Please, give motivation to people to die of old age, give them motivation to RP even as ghosts? |

Please allow age deathed chars greet/be greeted? Like someone said, there aren't enough shamans about to please the great chars that are around but age deathed. I say only those ghosts that are age deathed not a ghost for any other reason. |

A couple of ghostly ideas: When you die of old age, have all of your hp converted to mana, to make manifestation times longer and tells easier. Allow ghosts to greet, but only other ghosts - I had a blast meeting an age-deathed ghost in the River once, and listening to the "elder spirit" tell stories while I waited for a rezz - it was a pity I had no way to be sure it was him, with subsequent deaths, and a pity also after such a long conversation he didn't know me well enough to manifest to me once I'd regained life. |

The idea of not letting ghosts manifest easy to to cause spirits to move on. If it was easy for a ghost to manifest they would likely be lots of people with a spirit char. What is the point of that. The idea is that they be come less and less fun to play till eventually they get auto deleted and RP wise move on. Also if a shaman brings you out of the afterlife when the shaman drops their spell you can take over with normal manifestation. |
