| - | ===Spirits===
| + | [[Spirits]] |

| - | | + | |
| - | ''Fatigue''
| + | |

| - | ''Spirit Abilities''
| + | |
| - | Spirits are usually invisible and intangible in the physical world; only other spirits can sense them without the aid of supernatural abilities. Beyond this, they have a number of powers:

| - | | + | |
| - | ''Spirit Powers''
| + | |
| - | ''Perception''
| + | |
| - | Spirits can see, hear and smell normally. Their sense of touch is very limited unless they materialize. They can even taste objects to a limited degree, especially objects offered to them in ritual. Many spirits enjoy the smell and taste of ritually offered food and drink.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | All spirits can sense the presence of other spirits and magic. A successful Wits roll allows a spirit to sense the location and approximate power of a nearby magical item, a being's mental or emotional state, mortals with supernatural abilities and the like.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Spirits can also hear their names whenever they are ritually invoked, regardless of distance or intervening barriers. This can include anything from a sincere prayer to a medium attempting to channel the spirit or a sorceror's ritual of summoning.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | ''Movement''
| + | |
| - | Spirits move at normal speed for their physical forms, except that they can move in any direction, through the air and solid objects. A spirit can instantly transport itself into the presence of someone who ritually invokes its name.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | ''Communication''
| + | |
| - | Spirits can project their thoughts as speech and hear thoughts directed at them. Evil spirits sometimes use this power to 'plant' thoughts in a mortal's head.
