. . "30"^^ . "Attack: Ian Jackdaw's ghost retains all his attacks, although those relying on physical contact do not affect creatures that are not ethereal. Damage: Against ethereal creatures, Ian Jackdaw's ghost uses his base damage values. Against nonethereal creatures, Ian Jackdaw's ghost usually cannot deal physical damage at all but can use its special attacks, if any, when he manifests (see below). Special Attacks: Ian Jackdaw's ghost retains all his special attacks, although those relying on physical contact do not affect nonethereal creatures. Ian Jackdaw's ghost also gains a manifestation ability plus three other special attacks as described below. The save DC against a special attack is equal to 10 + 1/2 ghost\u2019s HD + ghost\u2019s Cha modifier unless otherwise noted. Manifestation (Su): Every ghost has this ability. A ghost dwells on the Ethereal Plane and, as an ethereal creature, it cannot affect or be affected by anything in the material world. When a ghost manifests, it partly enters the Material Plane and becomes visible but incorporeal on the Material Plane. A manifested ghost can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons, or spells, with a 50% chance to ignore any damage from a corporeal source. A manifested ghost can pass through solid objects at will, and its own attacks pass through armor. A manifested ghost always moves silently. A manifested ghost can strike with its touch attack or with a ghost touch weapon (see Ghostly Equipment, below). A manifested ghost remains partially on the Ethereal Plane, where is it not incorporeal. A manifested ghost can be attacked by opponents on either the Material Plane or the Ethereal Plane. The ghost\u2019s incorporeality helps protect it from foes on the Material Plane, but not from foes on the Ethereal Plane.When a spellcasting ghost is not manifested and is on the Ethereal Plane, its spells cannot affect targets on the Material Plane, but they work normally against ethereal targets. When a spellcasting ghost manifests, its spells continue to affect ethereal targets and can affect targets on the Material Plane normally unless the spells rely on touch. A manifested ghost\u2019s touch spells don\u2019t work on nonethereal targets.A ghost has two home planes, the Material Plane and the Ethereal Plane. It is not considered extraplanar when on either of these planes. Corrupting Gaze (Su): A ghost can blast living beings with a glance, at a range of up to 30 feet. Creatures that meet the ghost\u2019s gaze must succeed on a Fortitude save or take 2d10 points of damage and 1d4 points of Charisma damage. Horrific Appearance (Su): Any living creature within 60 feet that views a ghost must succeed on a Fortitude save or immediately take 1d4 points of Strength damage, 1d4 points of Dexterity damage, and 1d4 points of Constitution damage. A creature that successfully saves against this effect cannot be affected by the same ghost\u2019s horrific appearance for 24 hours. Malevolence (Su): Once per round, an ethereal ghost can merge its body with a creature on the Material Plane. This ability is similar to a magic jar spell (caster level 10th or the ghost\u2019s Hit Dice, whichever is higher), except that it does not require a receptacle. To use this ability, the ghost must be manifested and it must try move into the target\u2019s space; moving into the target\u2019s space to use the malevolence ability does not provoke attacks of opportunity. The target can resist the attack with a successful Will save (DC 15 + ghost\u2019s Cha modifier). A creature that successfully saves is immune to that same ghost\u2019s malevolence for 24 hours, and the ghost cannot enter the target\u2019s space. If the save fails, the ghost vanishes into the target\u2019s body.
