Overview
There are two different classes of Spirit on Atharen: Noradac, sometimes called 'Adac' like the Gods for reasons that will be explained, and Dregs. Unsurprisingly, these two classifications are two sides of the same coin: creatures made of and from the same species of beings, the Adac, or Gods. Creatures that are often made for the same general purpose: to serve as eyes and ears for the Gods who created them, to communicate with followers, to guide and preserve, and to maintain the world. Spirits fulfill Domains for the Gods who made them. They act almost like dutiful worker-bees for their King or Queen, the Adac that guides them. Though, over time, this function has begun to shift for many, and in some ways it shifted long ago.
Creation
All Spirits were originally called Noradac for a reason. Every single spirit, without exception, is a fragment of an Adac, or a Creator-God of the Path. For this reason, calling the Spirits themselves 'Adac' is commonplace and equally understood. As Spirits are fragments or extensions of the Adac, the Gods are capable of freely assimilating their own Spirits back into their Divine Spark, and can take total and seamless control over spirits they have created. While there are exceptions such as the Patrons - who slowly acquire true free will, maturing into independent beings - this remains the rule for the far majority of them.
Spirits are created in a way similar to that of mortal beings. As they predated mortals, the Gods originally practiced the techniques of 'creating life' on Spirits, and from their learnings applied these and other methods in order to harbor mortal sentience. Spirits are formed from the smallest shedding of an Adac's Divinity into the ether around them, which they will then crystallize and manipulate into a fully realized form. They are created whole, though some may actually develop over time in different environments, or as they experience the world. Given the near-infinity that is the Gods' providence over their own domains, spirits they create can be truly vast and diverse.
