Fetishes:
Fetishes are magical objects that bind a portion of a spirit’s power to the physical world, allowing a shaman (or anyone who the shaman willingly gives the fetish to) to use a single ability of that spirit. Each individual fetish is a separate advantage, and each has a specific level. The fetish can hold an ability of up to its own level in character points. By releasing the bound spirit, the shaman can bind a new spirit to the fetish to change the abilities she has access to. Doing so requires accessing the spirit world through the Medium, Channeling, or Jumper advantages, and convincing (whether by negotiation, trickery, or threats) a spirit to allow you to tap into its power.
