Founded in 288 AF by [[Firefox]], and formerly known as the [[Shaman]] [[guild]], the '''Spirit Walkers''' are one of the [[help:houses|houses]] residing in the city of [[Hashan]], Crown of the Ithmia.  
:''This page is about the House. For the class, please see [[Shaman]].''


The Spirit Walkers act as an assembly of warriors and ritualists who who hold that the world is surrounded by and filled with invisible spiritual power that embraces all aspects of life. Standing as a bridge between all spirits and the world of mortals, they negotiate peaceful coexistence between them.  
Walking the precarious and, at times, dangerous bridge between the spiritual and material worlds, the '''Spirit Walkers''' hold the notion of balancing the path as paramount to survival. A false step in either direction can collapse the path, with all efforts, and even practitioners lost to other realms.
Abiding by the rule of "Three Upon Three Upon Three", the Spirit Walkers are ruled by a Prophet in the governing form of a dictatorship. No House leader may serve more than a twenty-seven [[year]] term. An Heir to the Prophet’s leadership is named at the cusp of the leader's first decade in that position. Upon the naming and ascension of each new Heir, the successor to the current Prophet or Prophetess, a celebration is held called the [[Festival of the Spirits]].

To walk between worlds is a complex and delicate undertaking, requiring absolute dedication. Oaths made to the Spirit Walkers [[help:houses|house]] and its members supercede all others. Although the house itself is patroned by Lady [[Indrani]], members of the [[help:houses|house]] are free to follow the spiritual path and the residence of their choice. No matter the path, members of the Spirit Walkers understand and uphold their role as keepers of sacred knowledge, and honor the spiritual gifts they receive.

Walking the precarious and, at times, dangerous bridge between the spiritual and material worlds, the Spirit Walkers hold the notion of balancing the path as paramount to survival. A false step in either direction can collapse the path, with all efforts, and even practitioners lost to other realms.

Abiding by the rule of "Three Upon Three Upon Three", the Spirit Walkers are ruled by a Prophet in the governing form of a dictatorship. No House leader may serve more than a twenty-seven year term. An Heir to the Prophet’s leadership is named at the cusp of the leader's first decade in that position. Upon the naming and ascension of each new Heir, the successor to the current Prophet or Prophetess, a celebration is held called the Festival of the Spirits.
