War Ghost
The 'War Ghosts' are the mainstay in the armies of the dead as elite soldiers. Some of these ghosts retain the ferocity they had in life while others have honed their skills after death. Regardless, they are excellent soldiers, more of a special force than mindless infantry in smaller armies. War Ghosts can materialize and even inhabit bodies. These creatures don't really require any lore change to fit into Godbound: they are spectral soldiers and warriors.
