1. Ooh, how does liminal bridge factor in here? Can ghosts like...liminal bridge themselves back to the alive side of things?

2. Excellent! And you didn't mention it, but I imagine Summoning would also count? (Since there are people who have that but not No Distinction).

...Actually, come to think of it, since Ninja summoning did involve 'make spirits possess you and use all their skills', does that mean people with it could go around and get themselves possessed? Can they 'control' spirits in the same way that they did on Bando?

3. Good to know! Sounds like this would result in a glorious train wreck which of course means that is has to happen

WELL NOW, that's interesting XD

...Also another question, now that I think of it: how would things like exorcisms impact the angels? Since even if they're kinda a Possessing Thing, they're also Not Dead and their relationship with Matthew is also more of a merger than true possession.

And another one as well, because I keep thinking of things: if one can Liminal Bridge across the death/living divide, does that mean one can also Summon Traveler II someone from to death? (or, conversely, Summon them to death?)

It's complicated enough I would rather talk it out if it seems likely to be attempted than detail theoretical possibilities.

Yes. You could do those things, too.

Got it! I have no idea if it might be relevant yet, but if it does, I'll let you know!

And ooh, interesting. So what would happen then when an Investighost was Summon Travellered? Would they be just as they would be normally when they were alive, or would they just be a more visible ghost?

In this instance it would bring them back to "life" (in quotes because they may not have actually died...)

I'm bookmarking this entire thread but I also need to ask about Heroic Age Necromancy for communication and Blood for the Dead (the Achaia Necromancer plot skill) for potentially giving ghosts corporeal forms. I don't know if the latter is remotely a good idea, but I'd just like to know if it might be possible.

Heroic Age Necromancy would enable communication.

Blood for the Dead could embody ghosts, yes.

Whether it is a good idea is dependent on too many variables for informed speculation to be possible.
