Legion Tactics Manual: Ascalon Ghosts

---

When the charr breached Ascalon City more than two hundred years ago, King Adelbern, in an act of desperation, broke his magic sword, Magdaer. It created the Foefire, a blast of tremendous energy which obliterated the invading charr army but cursed the humans caught in the blast by turning them into ghosts.

The ghosts can be seen today wandering the ruined lands of Ascalon, now home to the charr's Black Citadel. These trapped spirits believe themselves to be living their old, pre-Foefire lives. As a result, they mistake anything foreign near them as a charr invader from the past and will attack without mercy.

Slaying a ghost will disperse the spirit for a short time, but the ghost will always reform.
