Spirit magic is a supernatural kind of magic in which the powers of spirits are harnessed for the benefit (or dismay) of mortals. Those who have mastered spirit magic are called Shamans. A shaman is a person who formed alliances with spirits. In exchange for some service the Shaman provides to that spirit, the spirit works for the Shaman.

Spirit magic is a dangerous forms of magic for the practitioner. Spirits are often devious and untrusting creatures. Shamans are constantly tempted by their spirits to take on greater and greater risk, for ever greater powers. But if they fail, if ever they stray from their path, his spirits may devour each other or even the shaman himself. A great shaman is one with wisdom, always knowing which paths lead to glory, and which to demise.
