Frum'Shauk
Spiritual Companions: A re-submission.

“… all forms one could imagine. They gathered about the great Traf accompanied by their Shamans as Frum'Shauk; they obeyed, but only in companionship, for these beasts were never to be controlled. By one Uruk’s side only a flat, grey shadow could be seen, trailing from his feet and blinking back at those that glared…”
 

Frum'Shauk, the spirit-y companions of the Farseers, Witchdoctors, Lutaumans and Elementalists alike, reside solely in the Immortal, Ancestral and Elemental planes as beastly echoes of the mortal realm. As a Shaman progresses through training, their travels through their respective realms become more frequent and, as a consequence, more in-depth. An adept Farseer may spend every second day traversing through the Immortal Realm in times of confusion or unsurity, and an Elementalist can often explore the Elemental Plane for weeks without finding a spirit suitable to bond with. As a result, Shamans, often and tragically, become lost. As a general rule of thumb, the Spirit Realm is not a nice place to be lost. Around every corner something unpleasant is bound to be lurking- whether it intends direct harm or not is not the issue, but rather that most shamans don’t pack a spare loincloth in their travelling kit. Thankfully, not all spirits are quite so callous.

They can arrive at any moment of a Shaman’s’ journey; whether they’re in direct trouble, or are simply lost out of their minds, eventually a Frum'Shauk will come to their aid. They can come in any shape, size or disposition, though often enough they take a form eerily similar to the creatures of the Mortal Realm. A wolf, a cat, or something more diverse and disturbing- There seems to be no limit to what form they take, or to what end they'll aid their shaman. They're typically Minor Spirits- those wandering oddities which no greater spirit has taken interest in, on account of their uselessness. From time to time a servant of Ghorza, the spirit of travel, takes up the mantle of a Shaman's Companion, though this usually comes from a deal with the spirit themselves. Strangely, Frum'Shauk are capable of traversing through the Immortal, Ancestral and Elemental Planes on a whim, and seem to know precisely where they're going at any time- even if they don't exactly mention it. Above all, a Shaman must trust in their Frum'Shauk, for it's them that will lead them away from the traps and tricks of the more sinister spirits which reside in these dangerous realms.

 

Red Lines and Clarifications

~ Frum'Shauk reside purely within the spirit realm- they can't manifest upon a Shaman's call, and neither can they be controlled

~ Furthermore, they won't be any use in a Shaman's spirity battles. They're guides, not warriors.

~ They're purely for rp diversity- Fun, pretty much! To expand upon and to encourage roleplay posts of a Shaman's travels.
