Lets try and flesh this item out a bit, here are my suggestions:
The death shroud must be draped over a recently deceased, non brain dead, non rotted person. Once put on, it will turn that persons ghost into a 'shade' a lesser form of the wraith, but still a powerful ally. Much like a wraith they are invisible and can fly, and while they share some wraith powers they also have powers of their own. The biggest divergence from the wraith is that they can only get points from haunt, or from witnessing death and destruction, with damage the chaplain deals out giving a big boost to points.
My suggestion for powers:
Haunt (same as the wraith power)
Whisper (same as the wraith power)
Spy: similar to clairvoyance, this allows a shade to spy on and know the location of a specific crewmember, which can be helpful to the chaplain
Draining touch: the deathly nature of the shade allows it to drain the life force and energy of a target next to it. The drained stamina and health is transferred to the chaplain.
Shadow Armour: wreathes the chaplain in a shadowy aura that deflects some attacks and lessens damage.
Shadow Aura: wreathes the chaplain in a shadowy aura that makes his punches very strong and stamina draining
I think it could do with some more/different powers but i can't think of any more at the moment. I see the shade as more of a spy/shadowy assassin than a malevolent jerk like the wraith.
