Spirit (Reylea)

The spirits were a vast collection of entities and supernatural beings that dwelled in the Spirit World. Born out of the mystical Force energy surrounding the planet Reylea, they were closely tied to the Force itself and greatly resembled many aspects of life and nature present across the Sixteen Realms. Additionally, the Spirit World and its inhabitants shared a connection with Force spirits ― Force-sensitive beings who preserved their consciousness after death ― as demonstrated by Iroh leaving his physical body to permanently reside in the Spirit World. However, spirits native to the Spirit World were unable to follow Force spirits into the Netherworld of the Force, a higher plane of existence inhabited by souls of the deceased.
While many spirits enjoy simple pleasures throughout their existence, some spirits fulfill greater and more essential roles for the betterment of Reylea. Some of the most ancient spirits, such as Tui and La, embody the very forces of nature itself, while the Mother of Faces provides a face and identity for every new being born in the Sixteen Realms. The two Great Spirits, Raava and Vaatu, were created by two Celestial Force gods to maintain the balance between the light and dark sides of the Force throughout the Realms, and were the most powerful spirits as a result; during the Harmonic Convergence ten thousand years before the Air Nomad Genocide, Raava permanently fused with a human named Wan in order to defeat Vaatu in their battle, giving birth to the Avatar cycle. Avatar Wan, and all the Avatar's succeeding him, served as the bridge between the spirits and the inhabitants of Reylea.
