Shamans feel an intense bond to nature and natural things. Magic comes from a shaman’s connection to the power of nature and the spirits. These latter forces are the manifestation of the living earth; her children, the spirits, guide and aid the shaman, often through the auspices of a mentor spirit they call [[Totems]]. To the shaman, the earth is a living being, and her children are spirits who guide and aid those that support her; spirits of the sky, mountain, birds, rats, even metahumanity.

	Shamans ~~feel an intense bond~~ to ~~nature and natural things~~. They believe that spirits can play important roles in human lives and in fact in the lives of the world itself. They believe that the gods are simply powerful Spirits. Spirits aren’t worshiped as gods by the Shamans, rather they are revered. Shamans do not cast magic directly, rather they conjure the Spirits to work for them. In many ways, the Shaman is unique to the spell casting world. Their conjuration, however, is treated much like a spell roll.		Shamanism has been practiced far longer than sorcerous magic. To the shaman, casting a spell is asking a greater universal entity, such as a mentor spirit, to grant her power. The shamanic perspective is based on a belief that spirits are intelligent and ancient, and they should be treated with the respect one would show an elder. Due to their belief that spirits are everywhere, shamans frequently summon spirits from the area when the need arises, rather than binding spirits for long periods. Shamans often develop personal connections to spirits, following them as they learn magic.

	The shamans’ primary skills are Astral Theory and Conjuration. Ritual Magic and Meditation are secondary and tertiary skills. Shamans do not learn Magical Theory. Rather, the Shaman works through interactions with the Spirit world. All “magic” that a Shaman casts are done via spirits that are conjured.

	==Spirits Services==		==Spirits Services==
	There are four types of services that a spirit can perform for a shaman. Shamans don’t have to announce all their services at the time of conjuration; however, at sunrise, the spirit will assume that hanging around waiting was one of the services. In other words, if the shaman was granted 3 services and used 2 on the first day, the spirit would leave at sunrise of that day–assuming that simply hanging around was enough. It’s important to note that the spirit is willingly performing these services. Spirits are intelligent and generally well informed. Their answers and actions can be trusted to be in the shaman’s best interests. The shaman can, before sunrise, ask for a physical service that would extend their service (see below):		There are four types of services that a spirit can perform for a shaman.
