--- End quote ---

Nah, he just got distracted by things.

And killing is very much a part of Harry already, I don't think killing people who kidnapped and threatened to kill, among others, his brother's girlfriend is going to drive him deeper into the darkness. Hell, I'm a little surprised Thomas didn't do it himself. Maybe he hadn't gotten the memo about her kidnapping yet...[EDIT: Ah, he was unconscious, that explains it.]

Really, IMO, this should be a policy thing for someone in Harry's position: If people mess with your friends/family to get at you then they die. Badly. anything else encourages imitators, and that's a bad thing. I'd be overjoyed to find out it got handled sometime between this book's end and the beginning of the next one.

Here's Morty circa Ghost Story. He's come a long way, and is a submerged level character at this point. I replaced his Supernatural Senses with Ghost Speaker because, well, read Ghost Speaker. It covers all that and more, and is clearly made with Morty in mind. Why he doesn't have it has got to be some sort of clerical error or something.

I followed Sanctaphrax's lead on how to represent the ability to gain power from possessing entities on this one...while possessed, he can use 4 points of abilities from the ghost in question. During the fight in his house, he borrowed Fists, Might, and Inhuman Strength, for example. I considered doing something with True Shapeshifting instead...but this seems loads more accurate.

I also stole the Aspects from him wholesale from Sanctaphrax.

narphoenix:
Do you think he should Channeling? That trick against the Corpsetaker was really fast. He's still not a monster, though, but I think that he's a little more than Submerged at this point, anyway. That fight against Capriocorpus was a Major Milestone, almost for sure.

Deadmanwalking:
The trick against Corpsetaker took the entire length of a proonged mental conflict...that's well within the realm of rushed Thaumaturgy.

narphoenix:
I doubt you can work magic while engaged in mental combat. Both are very mentally intensive and you really can't afford to be distracted while doing them.
