Spirit Design

All spirits take the form of jellyfish. Except when corrupted where they have the form of a purple and red squid. Untitled_Artwork-1 (2).jpeg

CORRUPTION

Corruption is what happens when a spirit gets overtaken by negativity. The corrupt form can be beaten and the spirit freed

When a spirit starts getting corrupted.. black-purple balls of energy begins flowing around them. When it gets too much.. the spirit gets knocked unconscious and they release black energy that covers them completely in a ball of negative energy(incubation)

After a few minutes.. the energy releases and they are in the form of a purple squid with 3 eyes. The unconscious spirit can be faintly seen in the body of the squid.Sometimes though a spirit cannot be freed from the Corruption and it'll be fully absorbed by the negativity. In that situation there will be more eyes on the body of the squid and tiny squids around the completely transformed monster. Untitled_Artwork-3.jpeg

When fully corrupted, spirits try to consume other regular spirits.
