They are invisible to the naked eye, but can be revealed by some form of light source (now available in many forms - flashlights, glow sticks, overhead bulbs) or 'glitterdust' analogue (commonly in grenade or aerosol). But its a dim light (redish in colour?) so not particularly useful for day to day work. (Question - would this drive people to become nocturnal if daylight renders the spirits harder to illuminate? Perhaps daylight also makes them everso vaguely visible.)It is possible to create an energy barrier that is impassable to the spirits. But it is increadibly expensive, can only be formed in the shape of a sphere, and can only be 'on' or 'off'. Thus secure rooms are possible, but for entry or exit, the shield needs to be dropped.Day to day life continues, although maybe the original incursions created a fair degree of choas that is still evident. Things are a little more random, and don't run quiet as well as before. Spiritualism and mystisim have become extremely pervasive. (ie: The local buses run, but the drivers are as likely to deck theirs out (and good luck in trying to get them to drive another bus) with whatever they believe will help keep them safe, or happy. Its hard to get all worked up about order and conformity when a spirit could just climb into your bus.I really have no idea what sort of character I would take at this stage. Something military? (ie: hardware orientated), religious? (ie: more flamboyant 'gun-kata' cleric?)thotd</blockquote>
