Spirits of Insel der Freiheit

The Islands that make up the Inseln der Freiheit are rife with Spirits of all kinds. Most can be split into two varieties the Nature spirits and Guardian Spirits.

Nature Spirits

The largest of these spirits are powerful sentient entities generally connected with an area from which they gain their power. These large spirits are few in number however their smaller cousins are numerous and varied. The small nature spirits reside in tree's, plants animals and area's and are generally non-sentient and benign.

Greater Spirits

The Abandoned Villa

Nastiness Rating:
This villa has been abandoned for around 5 years and lies a few miles north of the head of the Negam river. There is no longer any furniture or decoration within the house. The Villa is possessed by a large hearth spirit, investigations to date have been limited and little is known about this spirit. Last seen in battle with a spirit conjured by Sir Christopher and the outcome has not yet been ascertained, however Vidal revealed he has been working to heal the Hearth Spirit.

History

Spring 806WK

The house was flown over by a Guild party who reported the chasm was still present but the house looked in good repair.

Autumn 806WK

The house was used by someone to store the body of The Riverman. Guarded by Cockroach spirits the body was rescued by a Guild party who summoned another large spirit from the jungles to battle the hearth spirit. The house was last seen in a state of significant disrepair with a chasm splitting the house in two. The red glow of molten rock can be seen down the chasm. Around the house large tree's (300ft tall, 12ft base width) have been uprooted and scattered.

Katingan Spring

Location: A pyramid build of a single piece of black obsidian covering the Katingan spring in northern Waringin
Nastiness Rating:
The Pyramid is possessed by a large hearth spirit, currently asleep. Investigations have revealed that it has been asleep for 92,000 years and it appears to have an enemy akin to the Powers of Darkness.

Tanah Spring Vapour Spirit

Location: Tanah Spring
Nastiness Rating:
If summoned the spirit appears as a hunched and cowelled figure around 6 feet tall with long tendril like fingers that remain in contact with the ground. This spirit is a malign entity that consumed any creatures that drink the sleep inducing water of the Tanah Spring. It's primary method of attack it to wait until its victim is asleep and coil it's tendrils around until the victim is completely encased. It then produces superheated steam that slowly boils the flesh from the victim allowing the Spirit to feed upon the entities suffering.

Waringin Guardian of Air

Location: Waringin
Nastiness Rating:
The skies of Waringin are patrolled by one or more Air Spirits that will attack fliers with Air Magics.

Lesser Spirits

Cockroach Spirits

Location: These appear to be summoned creatures and have been sighted in a number of locations.
Nastiness Rating:
The cockroaches are fast, heavily armoured and have a variety of attacks. They favour going into close where possible as their strength gives them a definate advantage over most human targets. Their bites and stings are reasonably easy to avoid but they have a stream of goo that corrodes armour, does damage and packs a nasty venom.

Guardian Spirits

These spirits are caused by the accumulation of souls around the temples of Balai. These spirits vary greatly in size and personality and can generally manifest anywhere within the town they are associated with.
