Well, I'm talking about a character whose been played for two or more years.

"Valid Targets for a magician who died when not projecting include
everything in his/her LOS, spells,wards and spirits - even if they're not
manifesting. Valid Targets for a magician who has died while in projecting
are everything active astrally at the time (Spirits, Spells, other
Magicians, Foci) only. "
Its an astral thing, but if the person is still in their body and they
died, they're able to create an astral effect and bridge it into the
physical world.

I was considering making it cost 'shock points' to effect the physical
plan, that would probably be the best bet to weaken the power. Like 10
Shock Points or so.
>3) Rename effect. :)
To what?
Thanks for your comments,
