[QUOTE="GMMichael, post: 9146163, member: 6685730"] Fine, twist my arm... here's an NPC/Monster concept, with some Modos 2 details to inspire the conversion to other games. Engelbert Murgatroyd, A.K.A. the Ghost of Harvest, level 5 Concept: a tailor who once decided to ride through a haunted grove rather than ride around it and miss a trade appointment. To do so, he donned all of his wares as protection against ghoul bites, and doused himself in protective spices, which might have the secondary benefit of raising the spirits of his patron. Unfortunately, the haunting was due to incorporeal wraiths, who reached right through his garments and tainted his soul. Around the anniversary of his slaying, September 21st, the common folk say that the Ghost of Harvest rides the roads, high and low, a ghost of flowing scarves, capes, kilts, and hoods, leaving the faint aroma of cinnamon and nutmeg to mark his passing. These scents mark the departure of summer and arrival of harvest, but they also remind the commoners of the risks of committing to commerce. Goal: to feed on the souls of anyone not wearing wintery or festive garb. Flaw: non-corporeal, so he cannot affect or be affected by the physical world. Also, strangely superstitious. Physical 8, Mental 12, Metaphysical 15 Skills: ride 1, craftsman 2, magic (float 2) 1, magic (poison 2) 1 Perks: mana (19), mystic ward (d4), thought shield (d4), owl's eye, sleepless Gear: scented clothing (incorporeal), phantasmal horse (appears with Float 2 spell) [/QUOTE]
