Because of the nature of this forum, roleplay rules are a bit different for ghosts and Abstracts.
The basics about ghosts can be found here.
1. Ghosts and Abstracts can pick up things they want with this rule: if it belongs to a human, the human has to have either given consent to them (OOC) or have been trying make contact.
That means if they break out the Ouija board and ask for a sign, the ghost can knock a lamp down and break it.
2. Ghosts cannot possess a human unless they have obtained the human's OOC permission. They need to agree on how long the possession will be going on and what they are allowed to do with the character. If they decide they want the ghost to stop, either RP and force them out or just PM them and say that it's done, whichever you'd like.
3. Ghosts, humans, and Abstracts can have relationships. They can love each other, be friends, be enemies, whatever. Whether or not a ghost can make physical contact with a human is up to the creator of the ghost, but if they can, then they can do anything a human can do.
4. Ghosts can choose when they want to make their presence known. However, it doesn't necessarily have to be up to the ghost. It depends on how the character is. If they just randomly appear and have no control over it, then that's that. But they can always vanish, they'll always have that ability. It's sort of like going to sleep, though. They don't go anywhere else, they just turn off for a bit.
5. Ghosts do not have to ask for permission to be in someone's home, but they do have to have some sort of reason to be there. It works best if you can coordinate with someone in the Classifieds board, but if you just put a tag in the title of your RP thread saying "Open", you're essentially welcoming any ghosts or abstracts into your setting.
That's pretty much it. If anything comes up, it will be added ASAP!
