The Elven Shaman is the elven version of the Druids, they have close contact with animals and plants and even the elemental spirits. They don't worship any gods or belive in some kind higher powers, they just are closer to the elements from birth.
The shaman don't use the source to cast spells, but to get more spirits to help them. For the amount source the Shaman controlls s/he can "buy" extra spirits. The cost is listed below.

Minor: 3 source levels
Major: 6 source levels
Great: 12 source levels

Ex. The elven Shaman Veina has 15 source levels under his control, for these he could have one minor and one great spirit more than is allowed for his level.

The shaman needs help of a Major or Great spirit to breform the Investiture ritual.

I hope that those a bit high ability scores will help to keep the amount of these shamans quite low. If you allow priest to get religion for free, don't give the shaman any religion profs for free, if you want to give it something anyhow, give some animal related skill in that case.
