=== Spirits === | |||
Unlike souls, spirits seem to be fully sentient, some being the spectral form of a deceased person. [[Sinclair]] and [[Vindicta]] are known spirits. | |||
Some people that died a long time ago were brought back to the living realm during the first Maelstrom as ghosts, such as [[Vindicta]] and [[wikipedia:Catherine_the_Great|Catherine the Great]].<ref>{{PageRef|name=Vindicta}}'s background</ref><ref name=":0">{{PageRef|name=Raven}}'s background</ref> Other people, such as [[Sinclair]] (being Henry and Savanna), became spirits due to a blood pact binding their souls together, preventing them from moving on from the living realm.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Sinclair}}'s background</ref> | |||
It's implied that not all ghosts have their own bodies, instead opting to possess people or objects. Sinclair seems to be possessing a wooden mannequin, based on sound of their [[Sinclair/Sounds#Movement|footsteps]]. An 8-year-old concert pianist was suspected to be possessed by an 18th-century composer.<ref>[[Newscaster|Newscaster headline 31]] - ''"An 8 year old concert pianist dazzled audiences last night. But was the Long Island native a child prodigy? Or simply possessed by an 18th century composer?"''</ref> There was a trial regarding a botched exorcism which caused the spirit "inhuman suffering."<ref>[[Newscaster|Newscaster headline 43]] - ''"The Clansky trial has taken a dramatic turn today. As Miser Heart took the stand to claim that Eric Clansky's botched exorcism caused the spirit inhuman pain and suffering."''</ref> | |||
It's implied that modern magic can be used to raise spirits from the dead.<ref>[[The New York Oracle|Newscaster seasonal headline 18]] - ''"Planning on going caroling this year? This week's edition of The New York Oracle offers useful tips on how to raise spirits, but not "raise spirits"."''</ref> Resurrerecting someone back to their mortal body seems impossible, as even the power of the [[Patron|Patrons]] can't bring back [[Grey Talon]]'s family.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Sapphire Flame}}'s in-game [[Grey Talon/Quotes#Patrons|voice line]] (Grey Talon start): ''"Even I do not have the power to bring back your family. But I can make the ones responsible pay! Summon me."''</ref> That said, [[Raven]] has been searching for a way to make Catherine the Great corporeal again.<ref name=":0" /> | |||
Vindicta calls herself a ghost for "simplicity's sake."<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Vindicta|hero2=Kelvin|number=1|hero_quote1=Vindicta|quote1=So, you're a wight.|hero_quote2=Kelvin|quote2=Ehh, some people say Revenant, but... I'm not sure if there's really a difference.|hero_quote3=Vindicta|quote3=I understand. I just stick with "ghost" for simplicity's sake.}}</ref> | |||

[[Calico | [[Calico]] and [[Vindicta]] have familiars: Calico has her cat, Ava,<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Calico|hero2=Vindicta|number=3}}</ref> and Vindicta has her crow.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Vindicta}}'s Crow Familiar ability</ref> There is a cat café run by familiars "Peppermint" and "Mittens" in SoHo.<ref>[[The New York Oracle|Newscaster headline 73]] - ''"A Soho cat café ran by familiars has charmed the community. But to owners Mittens and Peppermint, it's just another day making biscuits."''</ref> There is also a shelter for stray familiars in SoHo.<ref>[[The New York Oracle#Seasonal (Winter)|Newscaster seasonal headline 22]] - ''"The New York Municipal Coven is looking for volunteers to spend time with stray familiars in their Soho shelter."''</ref> | ||
