Ayakashi: New agent diary

I am a ghost agent, and I could not be happier with how things have gone. True the work was dangerous sometimes, butI had my own quarters which were a step up from the park corners I would be living in normally. Food was delivered to my door at my call with plenty of friends in the form of the various friendly spirits. While I have not been able to fuse living souls I have gathered ways to collect magatama allowing me to catch up with some of the more merciless agents. Magatamas were spirits that would often be fused to team spirits for extra effect whether it be boosted experience or skill level.

Personalities of the team spirits are all different depending on who or what the spirit was. Each of the three classes have certain things in common with brethren of their own class.

Anima start off as inatimate objects that have their own soul forged by the intense spiritual energy of a user or owner. This will often give them some of the same personality traits as their original owners, but this has not been the case all the time. Weapons are not the only items to be brought into existence in such a way. Androids and other items that have significant value will be brought to life. Androids and other machines are rarer then the the basic sword spirit. Game pieces can als be brought to life like the dart or the pool cue. Anima class will have the greatest attack and defense out of the three at the cost of this they will most often not have any special abilities making it easy for others to predict in team battle. I have found to using them in combination of special spirits that boost their defense while I am out so nothing can be taken. Often times other spirits will pick on them calling them parasites for not having an actualy living body to start from. I cannot agree with that statement and I do not find them to be leeching anything from me except for the occasional bit of spare time I spend fishing with my trident spirit.

Phantoms are spirits that bear the closest resemblance to demons, myths, and wronged victims. Often old ghost stories will have their subjects turn in to a phantom class spirit. Despite them being not as high in attack or defense as anima class they will often have a special ability that can give your team the edge. Most often these abilities something to weaken the enemy team or other classes of spirits. Vary rarely will one be equipped with something to beef itself or others up. Ever willing to prove themselves the phantom class can be the most loyal. In team building they do well as the secondary unit on my attacking team to make sure anyone who tries will be met with stiff competition. When working with them take note that they will be hard to approach at first due to the various negative emotions they will bring in.

My heart is closest to the last kind, the divina type. Often they will have abilities had to the power of the team or a certain class of demons. They will be descendants of the physical representation of holy creatures and heroes with their own soldiers. Caring and intelligent they form thee bulk of both attack and defense teams for me. Having my presence in sight seems to allow them activate their abilities more often.

Being an agent allows me to receive special training including the telling of ranks in rarity and power. While some go through less then honorable means of summoning the more powerful demons I have found it to defeat the process of connecting with your spirits if you buy some special equipment for higher ranks. I find other ways including simple luck as well as basic negotiations.
