Congratulations! You’re dead!
Welcome to the first day of the rest of your afterlife. Not everyone who dies becomes a ghost, but there are many, many more ghosts in the world around you than you may have realized. You can chalk it up to living-privilege bias; live people ignore the strange and unusual. Naturally, functional parameters vary from manifestation to manifestation. But as you make your way through your ethereal existence, you will no doubt find a style of haunting that suits your personality, disposition, and ectoplasmic make-up.
Silas
How Silas became a ghost is quite unclear. Was he born one? Did his dad turn him into one? He doesn’t like to think too much about it. Prefers to live in blissful ignorance and terrorize those around him. Auradon was perfect for this, a playground for Silas. Though he thinks he’s here mostly to get him out his father’s hair. They had a strange relationship you see, at times it was great. Ol’ Beetlejuice taking him on trips, “pick someone to scare, son!” It was great, very emotional. You’d shed a tear. And other times, it was fighting and weird demon ghost things. You’d truly shed a tear.
Congratulations! You’re dead!
The following is a series of general parameters for the dead. They include, but are not limited to, the finer points of poltergiestery, séance protocol and etiquette, transmogriphication of ectoplasma, animating the inanimate, animating the animate, exorcisms, exoprisms, exorchasms, and creepy noises to make late at night.
In case of an emergency, draw a door and knock three times. You will be connected to your case-worker. For anything short of a death-threatening cataclysm, this book should be all an expectant spectre should require.
Happy haunting!
Silas
Silas’ personality, is sadly, a lot like his father’s. Blunt, sarcastic, dreadful to be around at times, a bully, a serial flirt. Though he did inherit some good traits from his mother, such as being loyal, and sympathetic with others. It’s hard to battle against the nature of an evil ghost who haunts for fun, huh?
Especially difficult when being around so many... sweet, and innocent people? Makes him want to raise hell for no reason other than to get a reaction out of the royals and heroes. And it never fails to work.
True to his spirit, the ghostly boy always has mischief up his sleeve. Never go through a dull moment with Silas by your side! If that’s favorable or not, it’s up to you.
Honing In On Your Haunt-Style
It is incumbent on every dead person to choose the style of haunting they are most comfortable with. While the more imaginative practitioners of the poltergeist arts may look down their rotting noses upon those prefer to emulate how they looked in life, it should be noted that there is no “best” way to be a ghost. There are merely those who find comfort in mediocrity, and those who wish to push themselves. All you have to do is find out who you are, and be that.
Plots
Haunting on a Friday Night!
Silas somehow has convinced you to tag along on an “adventure”, as he called it. The adventure? Haunting some innocent, poor, poor soul. You can’t deny it’s a little fun.
The Whole Being Dead Thing
You’re a curious little cat, you have all sorts of questions for the ghost. He offers you to see the other side.
Say My Name
Silas is stuck. On the other side. The side he doesn’t like. He’s trying to convince you to help him, to let him out. He’s not doing a very good job.
BASIC: Memory Manifestation
The most common and easiest manifestation is most likely the one you are in right now, a default projection of how you see yourself. This may not be how you actually look; manifestations often appear taller and heavier than you looked in life. Hair length and sparsity is also fungible depending on a ghost’s self-image. Indeed, many noted experts in phantasmic psychology have commented how much you can tell of a spectre’s mental state by gauging the state of their metaphysical one. In death, we are who we pretend to be.
The default stage of a manifestation based on the memories of your body is intangible and often unnoticeable. With practice, the dedicated deceased can manipulate objects and reveal their presence to the living. You may not be truly terrifying, but one does have to start somewhere.
