A ghost

Ghosts are spirits of the deceased that have been trapped on Nirn. They are often found haunting tombs and graveyards.

These enemies should not be confused with spirits — ghosts all look the same (though they may vary in color), whereas spirits look like the person they were in life.

Skills and AbilitiesEdit

Ghosts are considered flying creatures, and thus roots and snares will not work on them.

Double Strike

A basic melee attack that hits twice for minor physical damage.

Chill Touch

A short ranged spell that does moderate frost damage and slows youdown. The spell can be interrupted to set the ghost off-balance, but cannot be avoided.

Haunting Spectre

The ghost winds up and releases an apparition in the direction it is facing. Touching the apparition will do moderate frost damage, as well as fear you, which you can break free from. This spell can be interrupted to set the ghost off-balance, or simply avoided.
