Well, the aim isn't too revolve your characters' skill-set around his/her race alone in order to avoid having too many role-players with similar abilities. Your primary (first) element is fine as Spirit, since those are what Yōkai are for the most part and your techniques or at least the majority can stem from the Spirit element and be heavily influenced by abilities commonly attributed to whichever Yōkai your character is.
