Fundamental Belief: Fractured Soul Theory

The Sirdis, the Fractured Soul: 

 The soul is not a stable, homogenous entity. While there are widely varying beliefs as to the specifics, here is what is agreed upon: 

 

 

 The soul has a core, called the Vadall, composed of three parts: Mind, Body, Passion 

 

 

 There are an indeterminate number of satellite pieces to the soul, called Qildites. Qildites can be created and destroyed throughout a lifetime, and correspond to loved ones, core memories, core values, personal passions, etc. 

 

 

 Reincarnation is not the whole soul that gets placed in the new body, but a part called the Qolris, which contains hints of the essence of the rest of the soul 

 

 Upon death, the Vadall is supposed to leave the body, but the Qildites are supposed to stay in the body. If they escape they become ghosts, sources of dark magic, a way to reanimate the body, etc.
