Another question about ghosts. Are they always visible or only when someone uses Attune?
At first, I thought it was the latter, but the Ghost playbook says that the player must use the Dissipate power (spending stress) to become invisible.
What do you think? How do you play it?
Both, of course. 😉 Some ghosts are visible, others are not. Attune can definitely help you find them, but they can also find you.
Or to put it another way, you can choose to see ghosts (via attune) or they can choose to show themselves to you, like it or not.
As Mike said.
Sometimes the story calls for hunting a ghost that doesn’t want to be found, sometimes the story calls for a ghost that is very much the opposite. No reason to pin yourself down to one or the other.
I like the idea that ghosts are basically invisible without attunement. And that a dissipated ghost is basically stealthed within the ghost field
I have always described using Attune like unfocusing your eyes while looking at one of those Magic Eye pictures. You have to consciously do something to cause the Ghost Field (and its inhabitants) to be visible.
Ask your players, go with that answer.
