Do you use your own quanta or your opponent's quanta when you use the possessed creature's ability?

If you use your opponents quanta that would be... well... that just kinda hurts my head balance wise... but I would have to roll on the floor laughing as I ate my opponents creature with their own otyugh using their gravity quanta :D

That's one of the polls.

The apostrophe splice almost wants to make me hate the card entirely and horribly murder it.
Its abilities. Because it's is a shortening of it is, you use its to denote possession. It's a weird rule, but still. >:U
its.
ITS.

Allergic to apostrophe splices, sorry...

As for the card, is interesting indeed, if not highly situational and nichey.

I'll get that fixed next time I use the card.

Also, I wasn't sure if the elements were correct -
mainly :darkness could be :death instead.
be quick- time is quanta.

I don't think the element is wrong for this card, Darkness has always had cards that manipulate things. A minor point though, a Banshee is usually something that heralds death by shrieking. Maybe you could rename the upped as Spectre or something like that.
Dark winds blow across the land, will you run or will you stand?

The inspiration has been warcraft III,
in which 'undead' could make an unit called 'banshee'.
The typical thing about banshees was that they could take over a creature,
by floating into their bodies.

I understand that banshees would require a kind of screaming to be thematic,
yet the name 'spectre' implies that the creature can grow (forest spectre, fire spectre).

I couldn't come up with a better name.

Geist.
Most people tend to use the unupped name of a card, so it doesn't matter too much calling the upped a spectre.
