Nothing major. I just had a couple questions regarding a ghost's physical appearance and how they effect those they're feeding from. If the answers to those queries were to be added to the Ghost information page, it'd probably help ensure we're not forced to answer those questions again needlessly.
To clarify:
Ghosts can appear as anything humanoid, and do not have to retain the appearance they had in life. However, since their appearance is based on their perception and will, if they wish to mimic living beings (such as having growing hair and nails), they may.
Ghosts feed off the "smoke" of peoples emotions, not the "fire" itself. Thus they have no effect on the person they feed off of. In addition, emotions have a specific and distinct taste depending on the emotion and its source.
Ghosts may not possess anything attached to the primary processing systems of an active android without Possession III, as these are considered part of an "animate" object, even if not currently being utilized by the android. An inactive android may be possessed with Possession I, though fatigue should be considered.
(Example, a ghost can possess a gun. Anyone can use that gun, and it would not effect either the gun or the ghost. A ghost can possess a visor designed to be integrated with a cyborg. If a cyborg integrates with it, and the ghost lacks Possession III, they are forced out. If they have Possession III, a mental struggle occurs for control of the cyborg itself and standard rules apply.)
While Possession I does not have a set size limit, generally anything up to the size of a humanoid should be reasonable. A battleship, meanwhile, would not be. Use common sense and best judgment. If you lack these, ask a mod' or admin' on cbox.
