Basic

Insight - Level 1
Gazing into the eyes of a corpse, you can see the image burned into its death. A moment’s concentration allows you to call up the memories of death itself. You immediately see the last minute of the individual’s existence, generally as flashes of vision and startling sensations. Note: The power connot be used on the corpses of vampires who have reached Golconda, or those in whom advanced decomposition has already set in.

Summon Soul - Level 2
By calling out the names of the dead, you can pull them to attendance. Combined with the power over their artifacts from their life, you can force them to answer your summons, appearing and obeying your will. To call a ghost, you must know its name, or at least have a clear image of its persona from The Spirit’s Touch. Some wraiths cannot be summoned regardless of your efforts; many ghosts are lost in the eternal storm of the Underworld. Vampires who were diablerized or who achieved Golconda before Final Death likewise cannot be summoned in this fashion.

Compel Soul - Level 3
By binding a ghost with its name and your strength of will, you can force it to obey your commands. Once you have summoned a wraith (Summon Soul), you may use Compel Soul to make it answer your questions and serve your bidding. The wraith must answer your questions truthfully and act as you direct. During this time, the ghost remains visible and audible to you as well. This effect lasts only for about one hour.

Intermediate

Haunting - Level 4
Your powers of necromantic compulsion allow you to force a ghost to remain in a particular location, or near a specific object. With a cryptic phrase and a powerful command, you bind the wraith so it may not leave.

Torment - Level 5
There is a reason that ghosts fear the most powerful necromancers of the Giovanni. Through the use of Torment, the necromancer can inflict actual damage on the dead, punishing them for their indiscretions. Though you remain in the physical world, you can lash out with supernatural energies upon the ghost, although many Vampires choose to direct the blow by striking physically. If your attacks inflict lethal damage on the wraith, it is banished to the deeper levels of the Underworld for a full month, unable to return.
