#incarna

Another small tale from the wilds of null sec, though this one could have taken place anywhere. This one involves Ser Fukalite, and you can pronounce that name however you please, who is in the corporation Asteroid Farmers Unlimited, which itself is a member of the Goonswarm Federation alliance.

Spirits are personifications of concepts and traits, emotions, animals, natural aspects and features, Celestial bodies, and other such things. Generally speaking, the older the spirit and the more experiences it's encountered, the stronger it is. Spirits capable and willing to act as a mystically-bound patron/symbol/ally (called a Totem) can grant Boons to the packs and groups so long as they fulfill their end of the bargain (which is often decided upon summoning and choosing the Totem prior to the formation of the group).

A few spirits that exist are beyond human comprehension. These are simply referred to as Primordials.

Beneath the Incarna are the Triat; The Wyld (the force of creation and chaos), The Weaver (the force of purpose and stability-and later stagnation), The Wyrm (the force of death and decay-and later corruption).

After that, there is no true hierarchy. Although that being said, there are a number of powerful spirits that exceed normal conventions. They are often Tribal Totems or, more rarely, Pack Totems. A few have even gone so far to claim certain certain bloodlines and families or even simply individuals. This can also in some cases extend to the land surrounding said people.
