It otherwise\ \ uses the possessed target's statistics, but doesn't gain access to the target's\ \ knowledge, class features, or proficiencies.\n\nThe possession lasts until the\ \ body drops to 0 hit points, Agony ends it as a bonus action, or Agony is turned\ \ or forced out by an effect like the [dispel evil and good](3-Mechanics/CLI/spells/dispel-evil-and-good-xphb.md)\ \ spell. When the possession ends, Agony reappears in an unoccupied space within\ \ 5 feet of the body. The target is immune to this ghost's Possession for 24 hours\ \ after succeeding on the saving throw or after the possession ends."
