Like their previous appearances, Ghosts are fast, tough fliers. Now unable to create new Ghosts by killing enemies, they possess a debilitating touch that confers the Aging status ailment, which reduces the target stack's attack skill by 25%, their defense skill by 20%, and their speed and movement capabilities by 50%. They are now very useful in shutting down dangerous ranged units, and while they take more physical damage than the average tier 2 creature (having the same defense level as the games' Vampires and the Insubstantial creature ability, which increases melee and ranged damage defense by 100%), they are weak to direct-damage spells, possessing a mere 15 hit points.
