Spirits

"Spirit" (or sometimes "Esprit") is the general term used for any being of supernatural nature or origins, typically one of the Fallen or those touched by Them. To one unversed in the ways of the extranatural, a spirit might seem like some archetypical creature of the night—a werewolf, ghoul, or vampire. This is a terribly dangerous misnomer. Spirits are—at their core—creatures of dreaming. They feed upon the thoughts and feelings of others, and are so far removed from their more common representation that drawing conclusions based upon this would be a fatal mistake. Though many still possess a certain degree of power, the Fractured Times have left their mark on the community.

Many classifications of spirit have been created across the gigaanum, defined by individual perception as well as cultural and chronological boundaries, but only a few have seen widespread use in the modern spiritual community.
