Just how many ways can evil people come back, after all?Though if we have to keep them all, I'd say the difference between a wraith and a spectre is that a spectre is basically a malevolent ghost with specific goals, while a wraith is something that hardly has any vestige of humanity left - it hungers for life force and not much else.Which kind of implies that spectres shouldn't have Energy Drain any more.  Instead they should have beefed-up ghost abilities.I would also say that spectres just kind of happen spontaneously, while wraiths are deliberately made - they've been *sent* back by fiends to wreak havoc on the Material Plane.  Souls that have been tortured and twisted until they seek revenge on all living things.</blockquote>
