I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I played my first game of BitD tonight. I chose a Whisper and I feel like I need some help. Normally, I’m used to playing Pathfinder where there everything you can do is very clearly defined and everything you do has a very specific and well defined effect. The Whisper is not like this at all. I took the Compel Special Ability and it says that I can cause a ghost to appear and it will obey an order I give it. The problem is, I don’t know what ghosts can do, I don’t know what a reasonable order to give a ghost would be. I found myself trying to use Compel as a sort of “cure all”. For example, we got into a situation where we were needed to deal with some bodyguards in the middle of a fight we were already in, so I used Compel to order a ghost to scare them off. Then, later in the encounter, I needed to escape out of a high window, so I tried to use Compel to have a ghost carry me down to the street. But none of it felt quite right, like I was missing the point or something. Anyway, any insights or advice would be appreciated.
