                  SPIRIT BINDINGS                 
: '''Details:'''
By communing with a spirit, you may bind it to yourself. This will grant you some of the powers that that particular spirit possessed during its life. You may bind up to five spirits at once.
You may also attune yourself completely to a spirit. This will grant additional benefits, although you may only attune one spirit at a time.
Communing requires a ritual drum, which can be purchased from most general stores around Sapience.

This ability will be more effective against those who lack mental fortitude.

Be warned, however it is far from accurate.

: '''Attune effect:'''  increased physical damage resistance                 
: '''Details:'''
While this spirit gives you sufficient knowledge to craft magical totems, you lack the knowledge required to etch them with runes of power. To this end, a different medium is required.
To carve a totem, you will require 20 wood, 10 leather, and 2 silver commodities. Once you have obtained and implanted one into the ground, you may draw either a circle of binding or pain about its base. When an unfortunate enemy looks upon the totem empowered by such a circle, he shall find himself either bound in place or struck down by great pain,
dependant on which circle has been drawn.
Drawing a circle requires two black inks.

: '''Details:'''
With this ability you may designate an owner for a specific totem. Only the crafter of the totem may use this ability. The totem remains owned by the crafter until the designated owner (or a member of the designated owner organisation) CLAIMs the totem. If the totem is claimed, then the designated owner becomes the true owner. If the totem is rejected, then the crafter remains the owner. At that point the crafter may attempt another designation as desired. Houses, Cities, Orders, Oakstone, and individuals may own totems - clans may not.
When you designate a totem, its tuning is automatically set against the enemies of the new owner.

This greatest of the spiritual arts allows you to leave your body and walk as a spirit about the land. The further from your body you stray, the faster your willpower shall drain. If you run out of willpower, your spiritual form shall fade and your body will die.
Be further warned. Leaving your body alone is a terribly dangerous affair. If an enemy were to stumble upon it, they would be able to destroy it, and any hope you have of returning to a physical form.
