Guild Wars 2

This is an idea for a trait for a mechanic which is used by a few skills. The skills are spirits and they give multiplie boons or conditions depending on the type of spirit.

Well, the idea with this trait is to make them mobile, but they’re not running, they are tethered to your soul through the mist realm. So what it does is linking the spirits to your soul, letting them go inside of you in some way and makes an aura around you for a time, and when the aura ends they plop out of you and become static.

Spirit Link: "Links the existing spirits with your soul through the mist realm, letting them live inside of you, creating an aura which has the same effects as the spirits. When the effect of the trait ends, the spirits will plop outside of you and become static.

The effect of the skill: Your soul attracts nearby friendly spirits to you and lets them enter you within, when they do so they will fly into you and be dragged in with your soul. You will then gain an aura with the colours of the spirits you consumed so people can se the trait is activated. The reverse is happening when the spirits plop out of you.
