The target is Dominated and is now controlled by the possessor.
The possessor disappears inside of the Target, and the target loses control of its body.
The possessor now controls the body but doesn't deprive the target of awareness. The possessor can't be targeted by any attack, spell, or other effect, and for the most part is considered Obscured.
Possession lasts until the Target drops to 0V, or in certain situations the caster is turned or forced out by an effect like the Dispel Evil and Good.
When the possession ends, the ghost reappears in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of the target.
Most of the time the target is immune till a long rest if the possessor is expelled.
