False Appearance

If the spirit is motionless at the start of combat, it has advantage on its initiative roll. Moreover, if a creature hasn't observed the spirit move or act, that creature must succeed on a DC 18 Intelligence (Investigation) check to discern that the spirit isn't an object.

New Form (2/Day)

When the spirit is reduced to 0 hit points but not killed outright, it can choose a different object it can see within 10 feet of it and send its consciousness into that object. After it does so, it drops to 1 hit point instead.

description

Unique among spirits are those, that for one reason or another, are drawn to possess inanimate objects. Though sages remain uncertain why spirits choose certain objects, it is widely agreed that spirits appear to prefer items that are meaningful to people. A spirit might linger in one object, or move from one to the next the way a hermit crab moves from shell to shell over the course of its life. Objects possessed by spirits become animated, allowing the spirit to interact with the Physical Realm. Once a spirit has chosen an object to be its vessel, it regards it as part of itself and won't possess other objects. The table below has a list of examples of forms an animated object spirit might take. Feel free to create your own.
