Witch Totem

Witch Totems begin as large wooden idols, carved to represent various nature spirits. After the Shaman completes his ritual the depicted spirit enters the totem for a short period of time. Witch totems do not feel heat or cold, hunger or pain, but are vulnerable to fire and bladed implements (as they're made of wood.) Witch Totems are usually invoked to protect one's village from invaders, but will also perform less altruistic instructions.

Bone Totem

Bone Totems are demonic creations, made from the leftover bits and pieces of unfortunate souls and unlucky demons. As such they can come in any number of shapes and sizes. They are generally little more than animated piles of bones, but are capable of following detailed instructions and making decisions when needed. They are generally used as guards, soldiers, or lackeys.
