Seriously though this is a show about death
Because of her canon, and because she's dead from almost the start and coming into her own as a ghost, mortality comes up a lot when it comes to Barbara. I can't exactly make her not a ghost, but I can definitely tone down or avoid the references if you're not comfortable with it - please let me know! If that's still too much, I will not be offended if you don't want to tag her - just please let me know that too so I don't tag into your posts.
Any ghost can do that in less than one lesson
Barbara comes in with two powers: possession and persuasion. Possession lets her overshadow a living being and direct/control its movements; persuasion lets her supernaturally convince people to do what she says (to an extent - it can't be used to put someone in harm's way). Neither power will be used on a player character without explicit permission. I'll check and discuss on a per-thread basis, but please let me know if you're okay or not okay with it happening to your character.
