Thank you for the tips.
I'm looking to make the miracle stand on its own and lend itself
properly to a variety of characters without having to purchase extra
ranges on any character's other miracles just to reflect the fact that
they have this miracle. This miracle may be a temporary ability for
some and a more permanent one for others, and reworking the numbers
whenever a change comes up is something I want to avoid and something
my players would give up on quickly. If it costs more then that's ok.
Leaving the physical body behind is a given, though not necessarily
comatose or completely vulnerable.
Being able to manifest as a ghostly figure anywhere in the world,
instantly.
The projection cannot be affected physically in any way, because they
are not physically there.
Can be psychically affected by non-physical psychic miracles. (Not
necessarily psychokinesis because it may assume a mass.)
Able to use any psychic miracle that can normally be used as a line of
sight.
