Spirits
The elemental planes of Theia are home to countless spirits of various shapes and sizes, those they posed no aggression towards humanity many believed them to be docile. This is a misconception for spirits have there own problems. A spirit in order to acquire greater strength needs to feed on essence or wait several millennia to gain it naturally. As a weak spirit they are at the mercy of those stronger and if given the opportunity the stronger will eat smaller spirits in order to gain enough strength to better survive. They don’t have fear as normal creatures do but they know they much rather continue its own existence. Eating the smaller spirit however only gives temporary power, to stay at a higher level one must successfully eat a spirit of a higher level not an easy feat.

Aspect: Aspects are those who not only bonded with an element but have a quirk in the way they handle situation a, true personality that only gets stronger with the inclusion of humans and their relatively short lives.
World Spirit: World Spirits journey to this stages is almost incomprehensible the sheer strength they have causes other spirits to hear their voices and obey. It is at this stage where a spirit is the most able to be communicated with as it they were there own person, but the sheer difference in ideals is as alien as those in the stars.
Those, like the Great 11 who are able to reach rank 10 World Spirit levels are commonly considered gods by those lesser than them, But that is not the end a spirit can grow still but it is said that it will not happen in the great 11’s lifetimes, which is equal parts curious and terrifying. .

Using there help humanity healed earth, and were about to pledge themselves to a new magic age until the reminder that aliens were out there this lead a rift were spirits were taken from earth on there own desire but to do so they needed host.
Lucky for humanity Spirits initially had no ill will towards to humanity, even those who were powerful enough to gain a type of sentience that would be able to efficiently communicate with humans they held nothing for trade other then power for a healed world which in turn grant them greater power.
There was however an unexpected mutation in how spirits regarded themselves after being with humanity for a time, certain traits for lack of a better word rubbed off on the spirits. Giving the spirits a greater personality and greater desires whether then were aware of it or not.
