'ECTOPLASM'
Syntax: focus ectoplasm
Syntax: order ecto <command>
Spell type: OTHER
By reaching into the beyond, psionicists can conjure up ectoplasm. Ectoplasm
naturally occurs in two forms, vapor and solid. They randomly switch back
and forth, with each form having their own special powers. In the vapor form,
ectoplasm can unlock and lock doors and containers, even without a key.
Ectoplasm is much stronger in its solid form, though, and can hold objects.
Ectoplasm will obey the following commands from the psionicist:
return - ectoplasm floats to the psionicist from anywhere
catapult - ectoplasm briefly becomes a ballista, teleporting the psi
trampoline - launches psi out of no-exits
recall/door - opens a phase door that sends the psionicist to their temple
taunt - perform an annoying dance to provoke monsters with
bridge - allows the ectoplasm to open a phase door between rooms
consume - ectoplasm consumes a chest and spits out the contents
ball - ectoplasm turns into a bubble that can stop projectiles completely (if saved)
clone - turns into a copy of the psionicist
splatter - splash all over enemy weapons, covering them in slimy goo (damtype change)
facehug - jumps onto the face of the opponent, causing blindness
