===Bound Spirits===
Most magical creatures are at least in part some kind of spirit. Spirits of all kinds draw power and sustenance form thing they are metaphysically associated with and empowered by. One example is simple plant spirits drawing sustenance form plants, other plant spirits sunlight sun spirits and so on. Another example is Dimitry He is an incubus and feeds on the energy of humans, his is a powerful emotion spirit. A properly sustained spirit leaks energy in this energy is normally absorbed by nearby spirits for their own sustenance, then amplified and leaked out again and so on. 
Purely spiritual beings don't have the same "Life energy" living things and partially spiritual beings like Max have.

Using conjuration a mage can alter and control spirits and their energy in a number of ways. One of the simplest examples is to compel a spirit to follow a simple command. <br>
Another common use is to compel a spirit to remain attached to a physical object while there energy is siphoned off to fuel a magic item. This proses can drain a spirit to destruction, but if the draw is small relative to the spirits power the spirit can survive almost indefinitely. <br>
The most Iconic form of spirit binding is compiling a spirit to serve over a long term in some specified fashion. typical examples of this are part of Gaviscon's additional loyalty to Liz as his initial summoner, the obedience of Lunches former Tengu to her and her family in almost all respects for generations, How Dimitry proposed to use number of least solars to search the sun for the remains of the aforementioned Tengu, <span style="color:#0000ff">even the Blood Bond between Dimitry and max is a natural specialized and powerful form of this effect</span>. <br>
Possibly the most spectacular and difficult form of spirit binding is spirit manipulation. Using spirit manipulation you can restructure the essence of a spirit. Doing this to anything more that the most basic spirits or causing more then the lightest most superfluous of changes in an advanced one is normally fatal. With specialized knowledge it is still incredibly dangerous and difficult. Examples of this inculcate soul augmentation, YHWH's curse on humanity making them unable to recognize any pattern in the Word, <span style="color:#FFA500">and possibly Liz's spirit forge</span>.
