  • No armour hits, even if wearing armour
Abilities
  • Invisible at will, which they can indicate by slowly raising or lowering one finger
  • Can pass through nonmagical barriers unhindered
  • Cannot touch or be touched (or grappled) by creatures other than spirits
  • Immune to corporeal and elemental spells and effects
