Rules from White Wolf Mountain: wwm4.proboards91.com/index.cgi
The stages take so long because ghosts have all the time in the world to become powerful, it only makes sense it takes longer in RL for them to do so.
When the ghost is accepted, it materializes as a feint white shape with no features and probably no memory of who it once was – nor can it talk.
After 6 days, the ghost starts to take shape and get its memory back. Now the white shape is looking more like a wolf but can still not be recognized as its previous body and still cannot talk.
After 9 days, the ghost is now the shape of its owner and has full memories but it still cannot talk with the living but it can with the dead.
After 12 days, the ghost can be seen and heard by the living but they cannot recognize it but can ‘sense’ whom it may have been.
After 15 days, the living can understand the ghost but it cannot disappear, it cannot change its form and has no special powers.
After 18 days, the ghost can disappear at will and has some power over what it looks like. For example, if it wanted to, it could look slightly more solid but it can still be walked through (all ghosts are walk-through able no matter how powerful).
After 25 days, the ghost gains the power to talk to or appear to just one wolf at a time. This can be handy for haunting.
After 32 days, the ghost can disappear, appear solid (but with a slight hazy glow), appear solidly dead (either like they died or as a corpse), talk to individuals at will so others cannot see/hear them and might have some ability to float off of the ground.
Normally, this is where all ghosts stop developing but some ghosts may become more powerful, either if they were alphas or had some kind of pure evil/good essence as a mortal. Pups are unlikely to become master ghosts. If the deceased is to become a ‘master’ ghost then the owner will be contacted by me and the ghost will be allowed to develop. This stage allows the ghost to rise off of the ground and ‘fly’ as it were after 3 days from the date of master ghostness.
Ten days from master ghostness, and the ghost can do all of the above and also starts to develop another form, a spectral form where trails can become visible, stating that the wolf ghost is powerful and of high status.
Thirteen days from master ghostness and the ‘master’ ghost can switch to its full spectral form (spectral trails are of a colour relevant to either the fur colour or eye colour of the ghost), dead form, basic ghost form, invisible form, can fly, speak to the living either singularly or as a collective. Alpha masters can also now appear as their alive form, looking like they did when they were alive and the only way to find they are not is if they show themselves or the living walk through them.
Main Ghosts:

Arinae (Good)

Confused, see my character Nieall.
First, the basics:
1 You can create your character as a ghost but you will need to say how they became a ghost, see below for more information.
2 If you choose to make one of your living/lived wolves be a ghost you must ask for permission from Lulululu.
3 Ghost can touch other ghosts and touch living wolves but when they touch living wolves they can't harm them and where the ghost touches them the wolf will get a bit of a chill.
4 Ghosts can't hurt themselves or others but they still have senses so if another ghost bumps into them they will feel that something bumped into them.
5 When ghosts use powers they can for only 1 minute and it's effect is only that of level 1, invisibility and shapeshifting don't work when a wolf is a ghost due to the fact they don't have a physical body and they can naturally become invisible.
6 Ghosts can fall in love with living wolves and other ghosts, they still have emotions
7 Ghosts can join living packs but they can't do many pack activities.
8 Ghosts don't need to eat and can't harm prey, but if they had an offensive power it will do minimal damage to the prey.
