If free/wild spirits or spirits are very rare, you'll find maybe a hundred of them in a major city, but on the other extreme, if you have a place that's crowded with free spirits, it's gonna be very different and they could very well have entire communities in parallel to human ones. It kind of is, though in the sense, like I asked that it greatly affects how the astral plane looks. I guess that's maybe a lot of questions at once, but any clarification would be useful. So I imagine that means anytime there are watcher spirits around a side, that means there must be a security mage paying attention to what they see ? How many watcher spirits can a security mage keep busy, do they need to be awake for them to work ? Can they get along with people and actually have an idea of what they're doing or are they and metahumanity too eldritch to one another ?Ĭorps do employ spirits in the form of watchers, but according to the wiki, they're basically little more than remote controlled camera for the corp security mage, and they might not even come from an actual metaplane. Same question, how are they getting paid, are they getting paid, or like bound by obscure obedience rituals, or both. So, what's in it for them ? Do spirits have any use for money ? What would it get them to work with or for a corporation ? And said shareholder of Evo is an extreme case, but I imagine sometimes spirits are more like corporate employees who answer to a manager or something like that. A free spirit is a major shareholder of Evo and probably takes part in business decisions and everything. Is it a matter of keeping things clean so the mages don't have too many penalties, or about protecting the free spirits that live in these areas so they don't become toxic or whatever ?Īlso, free spirits have been known to even conduct business. So if I understand things well, spirits who actually live in the astral world are "free spirits" who aren't in whatever home metaplane they're from, right ? Do we know how many of them there are ? If PC mage goes astral projection to check out a place, how likely is it that they'll run into a spirit just minding its own business ? Would they mostly be elemental or beast/man spirits or other things yet ? Do they have a society or something in there ? There's a whole thing about the astral plane getting poluted by various things and you have stuff like the Astral Space Preservation Society. From what I'm reading from the wiki, when, say, a PC summons and air spirit, they don't assume control of an air spirit that's passing by, they're actually sending a call to the metaplane of air and a spirit comes into the astral plane of the physical world. So I'm still pretty hazy about spirits in the world of Shadowrun, which kinda forces me to gloss over lots of things when describing the astral space and what happens in it, and so I'm a bit limited about any plotline that has to do with the supernatural, magic and spirits.

Sadly our nova hot community isn't the best place to discuss the mechanics discussion or troubleshooting the video games. Mostly the pen and paper role playing game, but also the deck building card game, video games, and literature of Shadowrun. Discussion is primarily aimed at exploring narratives found in the Sixth World. Here at /r/Shadowrun we talk shop about all things in the shadows.
