Experiment to see if this works in that universe: Everything in the material world has a shadow in the spiritual and vice versa that can be seen by those sensitive to it. Normally energy bleeds off crossing the veil so the shadow can cause no harm but mana can be manipulated to allow this. Also, don't try too hard to be all of Galileo, Newton, Darwin, and Einstein. The moon can be a cheese round until a PC goes there. |

Re: [Magic] So Lasers Can Hurt Ghosts
In that case though, it must be represented in the template of the ghost. For example, adding Bane (Light), -10% to Insubstantiality would be sufficient to render a ghost vulnerable to light-based attacks. Salt (which was traditionally thought of as solid light) does have a basis in folklore as being a ward against ghosts (though Dread (Salt) would likely be a better representation).

Re: [Magic] So Lasers Can Hurt Ghosts
That's a good idea, even though Bane was designed for allowing stuff to bypass your DR the concept makes sense for other stuff that would prevent damage.
