Main Power Origins: Supernatural

Powers

• Spirit Physiology: Being a spirit of the former living, Anselm has none of the drawbacks of the living. He does not need sleep, food, liquid or to breathe. He is also completely unaffected by disease or illness, poison and toxins. He is also normally invisible to the naked eye, only visible through direct manifestation, or by those with special senses. More interestingly, Anselm's body is more "elastic" in nature and not limited to the physical limitations of material bodies. He can also grow additional limbs if needed.
  
  
  
  • Spectral Strength: Anselm can unlike most spirits, interact with the world more directly. He can lift a max of 5 tons.
    
    
  • Spectral Stamina: Anselm's body while amorphous in nature, can withstand up to 10 tons of force before something can "damage" it through physical force. His body is more vulnerable to elemental damage.
    
    
  • Fear Augmentation: Anselm can become more powerful through the fear of others. While his form is directly manifested, this is indicated by his already yellow outline becoming more vibrant. Through the fear of others, Anselm's "strength" can become doubled at max.
    
    
  • Fear Manipulation: Anselm passively exudes an aura of Fear up to 50ft from his "body." Through this aura, he can cause the fears of those around him to manifest as hallucinations. They cannot physically interact with the world around them, and anyone with strong enough willpower can resist the effects- or figuring out the trick to seeing through the illusions.
    
    
  • Deceit Detection: Anselm through the falsehood used in his death, can sense the truth out of spite. The exact means he does this is unclear. But whether or not it involves some kind of 6th sense, or an instinctual telepathy, it is virtually impossible to lie within Anselm's presence.

Personality
Anselm is a very grumpy, and vengeful old ghost who devoted his afterlife to exacting revenge on the families of those responsible for his death. He wasn't always like this. But being betrayed by people he thought were his friends, branded as a heretic, and left to haunt the countryside as a vengeful spirit for decades has twisted him into this. it's been long enough that the families of those who accused have long since passed away. That has done little for his simmering rage, and without them, he's turned his vengeance upon the living in general! For his life was taken away, and he wasn't allowed to enjoy it to the fullest as the living now can.

Anselm has 'warmed up' to Hans, not happy with the arrangements of sharing his body but that's better than passing on to the afterlife. The fact Hans didn't opt for getting him exorcised from his body was not a lost gesture, and it's only for that reason Anselm has done any self-reflection.
