Description: Pocongs are souls trapped in objects, usually clothing, images (portraits, photos, films), or beloved possessions of the deceased. Truly powerful ones dwell in whole houses, ships, or trains.

Procreation: They do not procreate. They are created when someone is too attached to their possessions, or by undeath power. They occur rarely, but due to the age of the world, many exist. If someone attempts to become a bash tchelik and fails, this is what they become instead.

Magic: One in twenty million have heart or soul magic. Mind magic is very rare, unless they knew it in life. Body magic is impossible. Void is very rare. Faith is uncommon.

Special Powers: Pocongs control what they are trapped within to some degree. They can animate the object slightly, and if they are within an image of themselves, they will have full autonomy within that image. When someone sees or touches their object, they will feel uneasy, but if they realize it is haunted, they will go mad. It is a 10 undeath power to make one.

Stronger pocongs control whole houses, ships, or trains, and they can create deadly illusions within them.

Weaknessess: Some try to prevent the pocong from coming by wrapping the dead in a special shroud and binding it, capturing the soul in the shroud. When they come to unbind the shroud, the pocong is sent.
