The only issue with the 'slowly losing' one's mind is that with all the other wraiths and how people have RPed them and have been RPed them (even before I even had one) would mean that ALL the vampires who ever had contacted with them have been 'slowly losing their mind' and are all part of a shared illusion about this or that wraith.
Cobb is a great example, you have the wraith Cobb and there were those who knew him who thought he was 'back' even though he was nothing more than a wraith. That would be a shared illusion or madness. While based on what we're being told, there is no way anyone who simply came across this 'blob' of a wraith would had known at all that it was Cobb or Cobb looking. While that's perfectly fine to have a shared illusion or madness in this or that.
There are plenty of wraiths that have been written as this or that, being more 'spirit' looking. As many people have apparently taken the "what they look in the shadow realm compare to the real world" as being this or that. This has been likely LONGER than I've been playing because I was using what OTHER people had to work out what I did to create my wraith. Which I don't play anymore even though I would like too because I simply do not feel it's creative to have a blob of nothingness.
