* GenreShift: Not only is Demetrios on his journey to find out what happened to Lily and who he really is (or was, in his mortal life), he also founds Ghost Wrestling, so it looks like it'll be a typical sports story, and also has to save the world from the Brotherhood and then the Empire of Oblivion. [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools It all works out, though]].

Pothole that is misuse.


It centers on the story of [[SelfInsertFic Demetrios Anagnostopoulos]], a man who has recently become a ghost. The good news is that he gets a lot of cool new powers with it. The bad news is he loses his memories of his mortal life. He decides to use his powers to create a new sport that proves [[SeriousBusiness to be quite the hit]], and also hopes to find out what happened to his missing wife Lily. However, there are other forces at work, especially when an insidious cult that calls itself the Brotherhood of Nullity comes into play. Demetrios is then thrust into protecting the world from this bizarre cult, and discover the truth of his past.
