No, regimental magic works different. Somewhere between Dragon Pass, King
of Sartar and recent illumination from Sandy et al these spirits are
communal spirits or wyters formed by magically trained groups of persons
unified in purpose. This wyter feeds from the magic potential of the group
(regiment) and acts as a large ghost.
I find it ironic that the Lunars were the first to adopt this Lightbringer
magic for use in mundane battles on a large scale.
And really wonder why the other Lightbringer magic of summoning kin as
soldiers (the Luathela scene, the Ring of Orlanth) is not included anywhere.
