Shikigami
Creature 1 — kami, spirit
Shikigami are made of paper and can easily transform between a flat cutout form and a three-dimensional doll of molded paper. Unlike most other kami, who are bound to their wards by a more powerful spirit or deity, shikigami are minor spirits that even mortal practitioners can sometimes bind into a tiny paper form and task with guarding small works, such as garden statues and vases. Landowners delight in having shikigami protect their gardens, whether they paid a wandering spellcaster to entreat

Abilities
Ward (divine) — Every kami is bound to a ward: a specific animal, plant, object, or location. A kami can merge with or emerge from their ward as a single action, which has the concentrate trait. While merged, the kami can observe their surroundings with their usual senses as well as the senses of their ward, but can't move, communicate with, or control their ward. Additionally, a kami merged with their ward recovers Hit Points each minute as if they spent an entire day resting.
A shikigami's ward is typically a minor work of art or symbol of civilization, such as a milestone, trail sign, personal garden, or tiny statue.
Flatten — The shikigami flattens to the width of a sheet of paper. While Flattened, they can float on the wind, gaining a 20-foot fly Speed, and they can slip through small cracks and gaps without needing to Squeeze; however, they become Clumsy 2. The shikigami can Dismiss this effect.
