Spirits

The Spirits are divided into three categories

• Those with only Power - Magic Rune
• Those with Power and Intelligence - Aeth Rune
• Those with Power, Intelligence and Will - Spirit Rune

Manifestation

All three types of Spirits are normally found in Aethyr, but they may also be found bound to physical things (or places) in Maerl through Birth or Making or Spells.

Free Spirits

These are only found in the Aethyr.

Living Spirits

These are only found in Maerl in their associated bodies. Most will have been drawn into those bodies through the ritual of Birth, but some will have been drawn there through a magical Making ritual. (This latter process being considered anathema by many)

Bound Spirits

The use of Magic can form small pieces of the Aethyr that are half-in and half out of the Aethyr and can be used to house Magic, Aeth or Spirits. Traditional and accepted uses of this include the Power Storage Matrix

Captured Spirits

Some Spirits in the Aethyr may be overcome and commanded to service by those with the necessary abilities.

Posessing Spirits

When a Spirit lodges in a body belonging to another, this is known as posession.
