Spirit


A spirit, also known as a ghost, phantom, apparition,wraith, revenant, or spectre; are the souls of the dead who are trapped on the mortal plane. This pertains to humans, animals, and all supernaturals...except for vampires. Unlike the spirits that reside in Tartarus, there is something that is keeping these spirits here. Some of them are malicious, others are benevolent, while many are simply unaware that anything is different.

***********************************

Spirit Avatars are able to use spirits, which makes spirits have rather mixed views on these created Mediums. Not everyone can see spirits. All Spirit Avatars, Necromancers, and Medium can see Spirits. For everyone else, it simply depends on whether or not the spirit wishes to be seen. The only way around this is through forcing a spirit to show themselves, in something like a séance.

***********************************

Many spirits are fixed onto one location. To travel outside of their "haunt" requires a lot of energy. For a spirit to be fixed onto a location, it is generally because the location has strong psychic energy. That acts as a sort of metaphysical magnet. This pulls in spirits and traps them.

***********************************

Unless they expel a great amount of energy, a spirit remains incorporeal. They cannot breed with the living, since they are dead. So, spirits cannot reproduce.

***********************************

Possession happens when a spirit tries to inhabit a body of the living. The removal of the foreign spirit changes depending on the nature of the possession.
