Quick

The Quick is a slang term used by wraiths for those who are alive. They dwell in what wraiths know as the Skinlands, or the lands of the living.

Because of the Shroud, the Quick cannot see the Shadowlands or the wraiths that dwell within. Many of the living are completely unaware of ghosts, save for a few who have been in communication with wraiths, or are sensitive to the spiritual world. The Quick may also serve as a wraith's Fetter or the focus of a Passion. Mortals who come into contact with the dead are susceptible to the Fog, a means the Quick use to dismiss or rationalize what they have seen.
