Names hold great power in the spirit world, and the Philodox may exploit this to summon and command any spirit he knows by name. Only one command may be given, and the spirit departs immediately after fulfilling it. Alternatively, all spirits in the area may be called in times of great need. An Incarna avatar teaches this Gift.
