Ghostly Orbs are a sort of monster generator, creating a Wraith every few seconds until they are destroyed. They've only been seen in the WWI 2008 gameplay movie, when four of them emerge from the floor in a trapped room and begin producing Wraiths as soon as they are active.

It's not yet known if they can turn out wraiths indefinitely, have a set number they may generate or cast spells with mana. Nor is it known if wraiths are worth experience or can drop items when they come from a Ghostly Orb.

Spells and Abilities

• Summon Wraith

This spell will continuously summon a Wraith every few seconds until destroyed. It's unknown if there are any other limits, such as a number of charges or a mana value. It seems likely they will continue forever.
