Possess

Attack Type Physical

Target One Foe

Status Wound

The user of Possess dies, and is permanently removed from the party after combat ends. However, resistance to Wound doesn't apply. If the Ability fails for any reason, the user is not killed. Given that only the two Ghosts that join you on the Phantom Train have this Ability, and they leave before the boss fight, it is of limited (though fun!) use.
