Default Is there a reverse dictionary site?

Is there a website that you can go to, type in a words definition, and it will tell you what word that definition belongs to?

I dont know to explain it other than that.

I guess there isn't one. but anyway, I am working on a little project and I have a small question.

What is the name of the "ability to walk through walls"?

I know that this question should be placed in a fantasy forum but I donÂ’t know if there even is one. If there is one, what is it called and where can I find it.

anyways. Thanks.

Intangible :- incapable of being touched : having no physical existence : not tangible or corporeal

That what they called the ability in Heroes Unlimited 2nd Revised Edition.

I dont think there is a word for it, just like there would be no word for being about to leap over tall buildings in a single bound. these are descriptions

I found several places that call the 'ability to walk through walls', Intangiblity.

"Ghosting" actually involves you becoming transparent, walking through walls is just an added bonus.
