Book of the Spirits (The Everlasting Roleplaying Game)

You are not human; you are a spirit of the dreamworlds or astra, chained to an earthly form. You tread the earth, but feel even more at home within the inner realms. You have seen the netherworlds of the demons, the dream cities ruled by somnomancers, the primordial homelands of the nature spirits, the darkest nightmare lands, and the alien city, Irem, home of the djinn. Become a manitou, a totem spirit who possesses a human host, changing hosts as the old one dies; as a manitou you shift between human and animal form, killing Lovecraftian horrors from an alien planet that seeks to take over the Earth. Become a gargoyle. You are drawn to mortal sinners like a moth to the flame; you feed on sin, passing on a curse of absolution, but the sins you take in turn your unfeeling stone into sensual flesh through the memories of lust, murder, drugs, and more. By staring into the Abyss, the Abyss stares into you. Your kind must then hunt you down, killing your monstrous fleshly body, allowing you to resume life again in a new, cold and unfeeling simulacrum. Become one of "the possessed," a person inhabited by one of the ochelum, masters of the dreamworlds. Nightmare lords possess good hosts out of their love of corrupting them, while dream protectors possess evil people who serve them as expendable pawns. You rule your own realm within the dreamworlds and lesser spirits obey your commands. Become a djinnee, a creature of half-spirit and half-flesh. Your race either escaped to earth or was cast there by the Elder Lords, you don't know for sure. You live in a hidden city called Irem where technology and magick exist beyond that known to humanity. Some of your kind are kin to the Great Old Ones and serve them. Your strength and weakness is your emotions, which are at least three times as strong as those of humans.
