Hi, I'm a new player to the game and I have several questions. I really hope you can help me because I’m really confused.

Q1: My character in the game is a shaman. As I understand it, shaman have the ability to bind spirits to them (animal spirits, elemental spirits, Est.), I was wondering if it was possible to bind another persons soul. For example, lets say a person was about to die or was just killed and their soul was on the astral plane; could a shaman bind that persons soul or spirit?

Q2: Shamans have the ability to bind spirits to themselves but, can they bind spirits to other things like objects?

Q3: In my character creation, I stumbled over these to spells [Elemental] Aura and [Elemental] Wall, I wanted to add them to my list of spells but, I couldn't find any stats or info on them, what they do, or what elements they work with. Can you help me?

Q4: Finally, I was wondering about other elements in this game. My character uses elemental strike and in looking up element effects I saw a reference for Acid, Fire, Lightning, Sand, Ice, Metal and Water but, not Wind, Earth, and Wood. Was it that I couldn't find them or were they left out of the game? Also, if they do exist in the game, what are their secondary properties and in what spells or abilities can they be used in.

Q5: I've been seeing many different spells online, some that I really don't understand and seem made up; is it possible to create spells in this game, the same as weapons.
