Description

Just to note you, I take no credit whatsoever in making this thing, only in animating it for the web! This thing has been originally made by 3DO and New World Computing for Might and Magic VI: The Mandate of Heaven, but being changed (their colors, at least, because this type of ghost is not found in the game) by Cyrus Annihilator, the one who had ripped the sprites from the game.

Now that I had posted the Error_Ghost one as well Error_Ghost :D you can compare how different they look like and how differently are they moving. And believe me, Mandate of Heaven Ghosts are perpetually in this motion because they move themselves like that toward you (just like other flying creatures in that game, really :D) even when being in turn-based mode while MM7 ones are moving like the animation shows only when they`re actually going near to you or to other thing/creature they wish to attack ... or fleeing =P They stay still if you go into turn-based mode and at times do an idle animation that I might or might not animate in due time (you can see it at the very bottom of the sprite sheet of the description of  the Error_Ghost).
And yes, in both cases, you can find more than one of these things, most likely in groups of 3 or 4, no matter if you can also find them in groups as large as 8 (Mire of the Damned), all being different from each other both in appearance and in power (the strongest ones - red-eyed-and-cloaked Specters (yes, in comparison to MM7, this tier is the strongest while in MM7 it`s the second tier. And what is even more funny, Ghosts are the weakest tier in MM6 while they`re the strongest tier in MM7 =P) - can basically drain all your HP in one go aka give you a 1-it KO while their second tier - blue-eyed-and-cloaked Evil Spirits - can unnaturally age you). I would have shown you the true colors these ghosts have, but you all can also see them if you download this from Sprite-Resource`s webpage and, well, extract them: www.spriters-resource.com/pc_c…
Sorry.
