Absolve Spirit

Originally designed to grant rest to shades bound by their own memories, the ability to absolve spirits has been carefully honed by practitioners of spirit over the ages. It retains its original purpose: when cast on a shade, wraith, phantom, or spectre from the spirit realm, the apparition will be dispersed back into the aether, allowing the caster to regain a portion of her mana from the released essence.

When cast instead on a spirit or demon which has fully materialized in the physical plane, it will seek to purify the spirit. Evil spirits and demons will be stricken by this purification, causing substantial damage to them. Spirits of less malignant bent will instead be healed, with purer ones healed more. In either case, the spirit may not be absolved again for quite some time.

Absolution may also be cast on a mortal who has become haunted, to grant rest to the shades within him and thus end the affliction.
