WHat happens to spirits on the spirit plane...

Some folks were discussing what spirits do when wandering around the spriit plane, especially how they get POW gain rolls, and how big they get. One detail of the rules was missed. In some piece of errata (I'm not sure which) it is stated that spirits have NO maximum POW. They always have ONLY a 5% chance of POW increase after getting a check, and their POW can go through the roof.

To apply this to the scenario of spirits wandering around getting big and maybe or maybe not withering away gradually, consider: one POW gain check per week (the maximum possible) is going to work out to only 2.1 POW gained per YEAR, because of the 5% chance. And that is for a spirit that aggressively attacks other spirits all the time. So spirits are NOT getting big too fast. However, they are getting big slowly, so in the long run it may matter whether they wither away or not.
