Spirit Tools Classifications:
Spirit Tools are a broad classification of any man-made item which uses World Qi or Spirit Qi to operate, usually through the use of inscribed Spirit Arrays. Sometimes referred to as artifacts.
They are crafted by production-type Spirit Professionals.
Any tool which does not use World or Spirit Qi is simply considered an ordinary tool.
Spirit Tools do not need to be used by those in the corresponding Realm, but as a rule of thumb, only those in the appropriate Realm can bring out a Spirit Tool's full potential.
