Game Master reference / Monster
Description and lore
An apparition repeats the gestures of a life interrupted. Its cold touch belongs to a haunting whose unfinished business may still be understood.
A repeated gesture gives the apparition away: the hand extended, the empty chair, the attempt that never quite reaches its end.
The room retains the ordinary things a life left behind. In their company, the haunting feels painfully unfinished.
