A stabilized, versatile state of distilled anima, an "Anima Echo" is the primary output of Soulforging. It exists in a potential state, ready to be manifested into either a focused explosion (a Blue Flame Blessing) or a spectral protector (a Blue Flame Spirit).

Player-Facing Rules & Mechanics

• Creation: Anima Echoes are standard consumables crafted using Soul Favor and soul-forged vessels, channeled through Plavi's Soul-Forged Bracelet.
• Manifestation: As an action, an Anima Echo can be activated to manifest as either a Blue Flame Blessing (grenade) or a Blue Flame Spirit (summon).
• Stability Limit (Capacity): Plavi's capacity is equal to her Proficiency Bonus (Current Limit: 3 Echoes).

Anima Echo Manifestations: Blue Flame Spirits

When manifested as a spirit, the echo provides a specific benefit based on the chosen shade.

Spirit	**Common Tier (Minor Spirit)**	**Uncommon Tier+ (Greater Spirit)**
**Soldier**	Disadvantage on the next attack roll made against you within 1 minute.	**Expanded:** Disadvantage effect + Your *Eldritch Blast* can be treated as melee attacks (5ft) without disadvantage for 1 minute.
**Barbarian**	Resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing until the first time she receives one or more of those damage types in the next minute.	**Expanded:** Resistance effect + **Cleaving Strike**. (Action): Make 1 attack roll. **On Hit:** 2d6xBeams force damage + 20ft push (10ft Huge) + Cleave [Beams] targets for CHA damage. **On Miss:** Main target takes CHA damage.
**Guardian Angel**	You gain the benefits of the *Feather Fall* spell for its duration.	**Expanded:** *Feather Fall* effect + Advantage on your next Saving Throw (1 min) + **Heavenly Lift** (1/2 speed flight via movement/reaction; fall if not on solid ground at end of turn).

Crafting Costs (Consumables)

For the full details on modifiers and forges, see the Soulforging document.

• The Consumable Rule: As consumables, the costs and limits below are already halved (compared to permanent items). This sets the Base requirement for these items.
• Fixed Session Limits: These session limits represent the absolute minimum real-world time required and are not further reduced by forge speed-ups or downtime.
• Adventuring Progress: Plavi's Road Work Ahead ability grants Full Progress (1x Speed) while adventuring.
