You are capable of assuming a gaseous state. This allows you to enter closed places easily. You cannot be harmed by most weapons while in wisp form.
In wisp form, you are immune to non-magical weapons. including the Pariah's Blood Claws, and the Infernal Behemoth's Tailwhip. You can still be harmed by magical weapons (charged attacks such as Hellfire with non-magical weapons make the weapons magical, as far as wisp form is concerned). Further, you are unable to attack using non-magical weapons yourself, nor may you search, or otherwise interact with the material world. You can, however, cast spells (and be affected by them), use gates and portals, and attack using magical weapons. This is a toggle power, but consumes Magic Points for every action you perform while it is active.
This power grants a lesser form of flight. It costs 1 Action Point plus 4 Magic Points to turn it "on", after that the character will spend 1 Magic Point per minute and 1 Action Point and 1 Magic Point per space of movement. The character may freely pass over water, lava, and void squares. The character may pass over Barricades as well, but not Wards that may affect him or her. If the character runs out of Magic Points, he or she automatically lands.
This power grants the character the ability to "seep" through the cracks in any building, bypassing any doors or locks placed there. Magical wards that affect the character will prevent entry, however.
There were four of them, their enormous and misshapen bodies packed with muscle. One of them shoved a tree branch out of his path, snapping it clean away. “Quickly! I saw him run into this clearing!” Spittle foamed at the corners of his mouth, dotted the jagged tusks that protruded from his lower jaw. “By the -hells-! I can’t see a damned thing in this godsforsaken mist!”
Behind him, one of the others stopped short. “Mist? What-“ His eyes widened. “Back! It’s a trap! It’s-“
Their leader’s form writhed as a lance of ice burst through his chest. He collapsed, the wound sizzling as the ice slowly began to melt.
The others tried to scatter, but each was cut down. The second fell to a hail of magical arrows, the third to a bolt of lightning called inexplicably down from above, while the fourth found the air in his lungs turned to fire.
The mist coalesced, resolving itself into an old man dressed in loose-fitting robes. He looked down at his assailants – some still twitching, but all doomed.
He smiled, hefted his walking stick, and continued on.
