Spirit Focus Halfway through training, the spirit master is able to “call upon the power of the spirits” to vex her foes in battle. As an attack, the spirit master can focus the attention of the spirits on a target individual. The target is then unable to act as well in combat. The spirit master can try to keep this power up as long as they can focus on it. Spirit Form The spirit master can enter the spirit world for brief periods, projecting her presence a short distance away—in effect, creating a Force duplicate of herself. The duplicate looks, sounds, and smells just like the spirit master but is intangible. It mimics the spirit master’s actions (including speech) unless the spirit master concentrates on making it act differently. The spirit master can see through the spirit form’s eyes and hear through its ears as if she were standing where the spirit form stands. The spirit master can use Force skills and feats through the spirit form, and they originate from the spirit form’s location. Force abilities that affect the Force-user, however, affect the Force-user rather than the spirit form. Thus, Enhance Ability and Enhance Senses, for example, would not grant any bonuses to the spirit form. The spirit form appears anywhere within 60 meters of the spirit master, and can travel anywhere in this area, though it does not travel any differently than the spirit master. (That is, if the spirit master does not have the ability to fly, neither does the spirit form.) Those who encounter a spirit form can detect that it is nottruly the spirit master if they focus on it. In order to notice this, however, a character must study the spirit form carefully (taking no other actions), or interact with it in a significant faction. People who touch the spirit form, or attack it, are more likely to notice it is not real. Force spirits, and Dark Side Spirits, are even more likely to notice. Force-users who encounter a spirit form can use Force skills and feats on it as though the spirit master herself were physically present. The Force ability affects the spirit master, rather than the spirit form. If a Force ability damages the spirit form, the spirit master suffers the damage. If a Force-based attack deals wound damage, the spirit form is dispelled, and there is a possibility that the Spirit Master will be stunned. Spirit Lore Beginning early in their training, the spirit master can commune with the spirits (or rather, meditate on the Force) to ask questions that can be answered by a simple yes or no. The Force-user may ask one such question per day early in their training, going upto a maximum of 5 per day at higher levels in training. The answers are correct, as long as they involve information about the past or present. Information about the future is always “unclear,” since the future is always in motion. In cases where a one-word answer would be misleading, the Force occasionally gives a short phrase (five words or less) as an answer instead. Spirit lore acts only as an information resource for the spirit master, providing information to aid character decisions. This ability requires an hour of meditation per question. The spirit master can undertake other activities between questions if she desires, provided that each question is preceded by this period of meditation. Spirit Totem The spirit master gains a spirit totem that only she can see or hear (in actuality, simply a manifestation of her own selfimage, made “real” by the Force). The first thing a Spirit Master learns, the totem grants the spirit master a bonus to their sight and hearing, since its “extra eyes and ears” make the spirit master more alert. Upon further training, the spirit totem becomes more potent, helping the Force user see through Force Illusions, and also helping the power Sense Motive. Additionally, it helps power the Force powers Drain Energy, Farseeing, Fear, Force Grip, Force Strike, and Move Object. Unseen Defender Later in the spirit masters training, the spirits begin to protect the spirit master from physical harm. Small objects within a few meters of the spirit master lift into the air and surround her (in reality, a subconscious manifestation of the spirit master’s Force ability), absorbing some of the incoming damage. This ability does not function if no loose objects are present within 4 meters of the spirit master. |
