Soul

A soul was an ill-defined, sometimes religious term for the essence of a sentient being. For some, it was closely tied to the definition of life. According to the Eleventh Doctor, souls were made of stories, not atoms. (TV: The Rings of Akhaten) The soul was sometimes synonymous with a person's mind, their soul being composed of their memories, but even this was not considered accurate. However, the removal of a person's mind to another plane could simulate death, leading to the allusion between a soul and a mind. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Revelation, Falls the Shadow)

The souls of the dead passed through the Moon's influence on their way to Heaven, where they were sometimes caught by the Lunaries and offered new bodies. Leonardo da Vinci and Roger Bacon were two such persons who accepted, and by 1590 were still living there. (PROSE: Minions of the Moon)

In the 22nd century, some artists used soul extractors to improve their art, literally extracting portions of their souls and inserting them into the canvas.
