Spirits

Spirits are a supernatural lifeform encountered all across the Virasana Empire. They are manifestations of concentrated, prolonged emotions revolving around a certain idea, location or item. While they can be arbitrarily small, some spirits, particularly those of larger concepts like 'greed', or 'fire', can be extremely powerful. 
An important distinction of spirits is that they have no motivation, no agenda of their own beyond the commands set by the concepts they are based upon. Usually, they only gain a specific agenda when the status quo that gave birth to them is disturbed or threatened. Yet even the most enraged spirit can be appeased by offering them a solution that - in their point of view - resets the world in accordance to their needs. 
Despite appearing highly intelligent and capable, spirits are not considered sentient. Some exceptions exist, of course, in the rare cases spirits have gained a soul and Full Personhood Status.

* They are distinct from Ghosts in that Spirits are created by collective emotions and have no personal agenda, whereas Ghosts are remaining imprints of a person's mind and needs, and are nothing but an agenda. 
*Particularly large spirits can grant shards of their powers to people they believe helpful in setting the world right as they percieve it. Those spirits are usually called 'totems', their gifted followers 'Shamans'.
*Sometimes, a person's values align so closely with those of a spirit that they begin to express an echo of the spirit's powers. Those people are called 'Exemplars'. They differ from shamans in so far as no explicit faith on the side of the exemplar is required.
