I think this would severly weaken Shamanic characters. Sure they have a fetch, but having to capture new spirits all the time, and then lose them after they burn out, seems like it would radically change the power of Shamans v. Priests.
Then again, I'm in favor of upping the power of Divine/Rune Magic with something like David Cheng's Rune Power Blasphemy rules. Sorcerors should stay as is, or ....
Or maybe this: For sorcerous magic ( that's what started this, right? ), do not allow the use of MP from Spirits. Sorcerors must use Tap to take POW from the spirit, causing a _similar_ condition to that which you suggest. The spirit would need to be released when its POW fell to low to be of use.
