Capabilities

The user can utilize the Ectoplasm Arts, a specialized system of techniques based around ectoplasmic power. Ectoplasm, the uniquely energetic material associated with spiritual entities, has specialized properties. Though normally understood as the substance that comprises non-corporeal undead entities like ghosts, it can be accessed by certain individuals who have had practice communing with apparitions or contacting other worlds. Whether one acts as a medium or has a body made of it, individuals can wield ectoplasm in various ways using esoteric techniques. It can be channeled energetically to perform concussive attacks or even power devices. It can be solidly structured to create different shapes. Going even further, it can be used as a conduit for summoning and/or controlling otherworldly entities, bridging the gap between the material and immaterial.
