(given it has no Str score) Oooo, I don't remember. Ghosts actually have a str score when it comes to things regarding incorporeal attacks and defenses. I wouldn't be surprised if they use their str against incorp attacks, and their cha against effects from this mortal sphere. I wouldn't also be wrong if I am wrong. ;)
Mortepierre 02-27-07, 07:34 PM	Not exactly. The entry for incorporeal creature just says: It has no Strength score, so its Dexterity modifier applies to both its melee attacks and its ranged attacks. but escaping a web is hardly a "melee attack", so..
Lord Nedd 02-27-07, 11:49 PM	Not exactly. The entry for incorporeal creature just says: but escaping a web is hardly a "melee attack", so.. Allow it a escape artist check then. Shrug. It is all the same to me! -LN

Mortepierre 02-28-07, 04:20 AM	Thanks Marcus. That's what I figured but I wanted to see if others shared the same conclusion. Well, I know a player that is going to be very happy in RHoD then :plotting:
