A Spiritform is affected by Wards and similar spells designed to affect eerith 
and other spirits.  How much a rohain is affected depends on the relative 
strengths of the rohain and the spell.

Both are available whenever a rohain wants, for however long he wants. 
However, both require training to use, and can be overpowered by sufficiently 
strong effects.  (The GURPS rules are rather elegant.  For d20:  Spiritguard 
would give a +1 per (rohain level) bonus to appropriate For and Will saves. 
Spiritshield gives +1 per (rohain level) Damage Reduction when a save is made.)

Are you saying that magic can't be used to store information?

(See my previous post as well.)
