I understand it must have been
quite difficult..
What if.. I told you
That you had a choice?
If you'd like..
I can make it all disappear.

THE MIRACULOUS CITY OF SAN FRANSOKYO!
> It is the world's most populous metropolis,
A spectacular combination of eastern and western cultures and enamored with Japanese-American architecture. Consisting of several cities, towns and villages, it's center is known for it's bright aesthetic and modern day technology. However, behind it's magnificence is its rising crime and suicidal rate. There is something beyond the surface.
起死回生
Tucked away and hidden in the corner of the city is Ito's Ramen Stand, a quiet and somber place- a secret jewel to those with good tastes.
But you're not really there for the food now, are you? No.. you've heard rumors. They say the owner can cure you. Save you from your misery...
You know what I'm talking about.
The demons that haunt you.
They're everywhere you go. Unlike the others, you see them- these dark and ominous creatures.
But worry not! Because it is true, this man will be your salvation. Just close your eyes... and it will all go away...

I said just close your... huh?
oh.. so you wish to stay? heh.
So you must be here for another reason.
We are hiring.
But I must warn you. This job is not for the faint of heart. You might as well consider yourself dead.
Still interested? Haha, you're crazy! But I guess you know that by now.
well then, I'd like to welcome you,
My fellow exorcist.

Residents of the spiritual realm - often believed to be the source of unexplained calamities and phenomenons. These spirits range in temperament and are diverse as humans to personalities. Unseen by mortal eyes - they often slip into the physical world. They feed off the vitality and emotions of the living; however, this interaction can often become malicious, dark, and sinister.

SOUL, VITALITY, LIFE: 清祥
The essence of the living - regarded as immortal. It is the spiritual state of life in the physical realm. This immaterial property correlates (though does not pertain) with the state of well being. It is volatile and may be influenced by thought and emotion.
Spirits of the spiritual realm do not possess the same vitality of the living. Instead, they possess a similar but reflective property of soul (metaphorical to ying and yang). Unlike the living - whose vitality is life itself - spirits may only strengthen theirs externally. Spirits are able to convert vitality into their own through many means. This includes the consumption of other spirits and the exposure to the vitality of souls of the living.
Beings of the physical realm with low vitality attract spirits because they are easier to manipulate and attach to. Those with high vitality normally repel spirits; however, are also targeted by greedier entities. The strength of one's vitality does not translate to spiritual sensitivity. It is exposure to the spiritual realm that increases awareness.

起死回生
The role of an exorcist is given to those with heightened spiritual awareness. Their task is to pass on or exterminate spirits, as well as to ease and maintain the relationship between the two realms.Ito has given you the task and abilities of an exorcist. This includes converting the vitality of spirits into strengthening your own - allowing you to increase your spiritual capabilities. However, doing this will weave your existence closer to the spiritual world.
It is with one last warning
that I urge you to reconsider.
Do not trust him.

At sub-rank C of each method of exorcism, the player gains either a spiritual formula, cursed item or shikigami. The +1 Spiritual formula is a direct effect rather than an ability. An example is a fireball instead of "fire manipulation." The same can be considered for the +1 cursed item.
