Phytophantoms are ghosts who have bonded with living plants instead of moving on. They are a humanoid species, although the creature could have originally been a monster or animal. (Traits are almost completely mix-n-match rather than rarity-based.)

The way the ghost died is often marked by the plant growing  leaves/flowers/branches/etc. from anywhere on their ghostly body. The  ghost can have any reason to linger, such as a grudge, undying love for someone still living, fear of moving on, or even something as small as  not having found their car keys yet.

The phantom can be from any species and bond with any IRL type (or even multiple types) of plant, and the two take care of each other in symbiotic relationship.

The plant keeps the ghost tied to the  physical plane like a surrogate living body, and the ghost tends the  plant. A phytophantom can let its plant take root and return to normal   when the ghost is satisfied and ready to move on. If the plant dies, it will be hard or impossible for the ghost to linger on. A ghost may even use its plant  to plant a 'soul seed' and grow itself a new living plant-hybrid body!
Phytophantoms  are typically visible to the living, although they can hide themselves  from sight (and/or go through solid objects) with a bit of effort. Solid  or translucent appearance usually depends on how strongly the ghost is tied to reality.

No worries!! For this species, it's extra simple-- there are no 'myo slots' to get, since you can freely make & submit one whenever you like. The only thing to 'collect' are special trait items, if you'd like to add oddball 'non-lore' traits to the mix ค(ミ• ω •ミ)ค

Yep, you're welcome to make one anytime you like! ^^ 

Teeechnically it's real-life plants only, but imo if fictional ones would be possible in real life (i.e. natural appearance, normal 'fruits', no magic, etc.) then they're fair game! 👀 

--and if they do have weird magic/etc. traits, you can grab those too from the monthly trait drops in group bulletins, or with special items!
