The ancient Doroun had a syncretic concept of the soul being made up of seven distinct parts, including all the physical, spiritual and psychological parts that make up a whole human being. These had been assembled from a variety of Thalsic tribal and early religious beliefs.

  1. Vis, vital energy of the body, embodied in the blood
  2. Jhem, creative energy found in seed and menstrual fluid
  3. Ken, intellect, seated in the centre of the brain
  4. Bis, the simple animal instincts rooted throughout the body, such as hunger, lust and pain
  5. Ao, the sense of self and self awareness, seated in the heart
  6. Tas, the sense of right action and selfless action

All seven were required for life, and various emotions and behaviours were determined by aspects or combinations of the souls. All were required for life, but a balance between them was necessary.
