And, of course, these sprits start out at that power level. NOne of that messing around with a 17 Grimoire or raising the affinity. Not bad at all for the HP expenditure, all things considered. The book also notes that these are the "typical" spirits. More powerful ones can be gained via actual adventure and maybe using some rolepaying.

Naturally, these are only the ones provided in the book - they are merely *samples*. Extrapolating from the examples given (you can do it for affinities readily, afterall) gives some very good directions of departure.

For what its worth to anyone, some of the sample spirits provided in Trader Princes should be equally powerful, especially for the shamanistic Vorlan (Searing Blast 16 to 12W2) and Desdoval (Curse Trespasser 17 to 9W3) practices get some pretty hefty *sample* spirits...

Just sayin'

P.S. Iasus. I hate this new "friendly" Yahoo web-interface to pieces.
