| Back to Spirits | Demits are Spirits
who are physically and spiritually bound to a specific place; a ruin, tree, spring, grave,
etc. They generally won't reply to most requests unless a slametan is sacraficed in their
name and offered to them. A slametan is composed of rice, chicken/fish, and flowers). The
Demit when they receive the slametan will grant the person one wish, which must be capable
of their power, and also can not be used to grant other wishes, or for evil purposes. Demit will only attack to defend themselves, and will use their powers only for benevolent purposes. Since the Coming of the Rifts, they have had to defend themselves many times. Many communities are build around a large, old, and/or powerful Demit which will act as the main defender of any such community. Even thought these Spirits can amass considerable power, they still are limited geographically. It is usually these spirits that bind with Psychic Lords, and grant them the range of the abilities of that O.C.C. (see Psychic Lord for details).
