Soul

A **Soul** (魂, *tamashī*?), an unadulterated collection of energy, serving as the source of power and intention, the fundamental essence to all living things.

## Composition

The innermost aspect of the soul harbors amorphous wavelengths, wherein numerous "Selves" exist on different wavelengths, serving as the source of intention and will for the **Ego** (自我, *jiga*?). Enclosed within a **Core** (心核(ココロ), *kokoro*, lit. "Spirit Nucleus; Heart Core"?), itself comprised of Information Particles, which acts as a record for an entity's information, including the inscription of Attributes and Skills. This core serves as the wellspring of one’s strength. Furthermore, functioning as a container for the core is the pure crystallization of the energy made up of Spiritual Particles that encapsulates it—the **Energy Core** (エネルギー結晶, *enerugī kesshō*?), which is referred to as their soul, serving as the wellspring of one’s power. This energy fuels the activation of abilities like Skills and Magic, acting as the source of power for all living things.

These elements synergistically function to constitute the complete **Soul** (魂, *tamashī*?), serving as the wellspring of one's power and intentions. It is also the most safeguarded region within one's body, encapsulated within the Astral Body.

## Properties

In general, the soul plays crucial part to life as it this that bring forth will

though this there's a limited capacity to the number of skills that can be held, as the ones held here have the capacity of rewriting the laws of the world

it is widely accepted that energy and Skills ingrained in the soul are nearly impervious to abilities that can extract them. While this is the typical scenario, under specific conditions, it becomes possible for these attributes to be taken away. Nevertheless, anything anchored within the Core is categorically immune to unauthorized deprivation.

Under specific circumstances, the linking of two souls can occur temporarily within the Inner Spiritual World, also referred to as the Mental Landscape (心象風景, shinsō fūkei?), provided their astral bodies are in physical contact. In such scenarios, the influence of abilities on elements rooted in the soul becomes viable, contingent on the lack of resistance from the involved soul and its consent to the action.

### Dragon Factor

The **Dragon Factor** (龍因子, *Doragonfakutā*?), is inherent in the souls of all True Dragons, as well as vital to sustaining their existence. It is characterized by distinctly encompassing each of their individualized powers, including their extensive elemental, physical, and magical capabilities. Its potency is so profound that it defies confinement by any external factors.

### Name

A **Name** (名前, *namae*?), is a powerful piece of information carved into the soul, usually at birth by one's parents or later in life by an independent namer. The acquisition of a name can cause drastic changes within the soul, strengthening the ego and resulting in a massive increase in the quality and quantity of Infons within the core.

### Soul Lineage

**Soul Lineage** (魂の系譜, *tamashī no keifu, lit. "Spiritual Lineage"*?) Referring to assemblages of individuals connected at the soul, a phenomenon intricately associated with or interchangeable with individuals who bear Blessings. The formation of their connections relies on linkages known as a **Soul Corridor** (魂の回廊, *tamashī no kairō*?), tamashī no kairō?), serving diverse purposes. This intricate network functions as a conduit through which information, energy, and more can be exchanged.

* While connections may manifest among individuals who possess Divine Protection within a shared lineage, these connections can be established through a variety of means. These methods include, but are not limited to, Naming, as well as through Magic, Possession, Faith, Skills, and various other methods.
* The robustness of these connections reflects the depth of interpersonal bonds among the individuals, thereby influencing the strength of information and/or energy transfer. The most resilient connections surpass the confines of time and space, attaining a transcendent state unimpeded by such limitations.
