Spirit
Version 0.10.5: This article may not be up to date for the latest version of Isleward.
Spirit
Every character chooses one of three spirits when during character creation. Spirit choice determines the character's starting runes, weapons, and starting node in the Passive Skill Tree. Additionally, characters gain one point in their spirit's corresponding attribute each level.
The spirit a character chooses does not limit the equipment or runes it can use. All spirits can equip all items, as long as they have the required stats, levels, or reputation. However, it's easiest to start with using on-spirit weapons and runes because of the free 20 main attribute points and being close to the passive tree nodes relevant to those stats. Since passive tree nodes are limited, not all spirits have access to all passive tree nodes at the same time.
A character's spirit can't be changed after the character is created.
