ensouled
Imbued with spirit
Ensouled means having been given a soul or spirit.
The word appears in philosophical and theological discussions about when a being becomes fully human or morally significant: Medieval thinkers debated when the fetus became ensouled.
In fantasy and science fiction, ensouled describes objects or creatures animated by spiritual essence: an ensouled golem, ensouled AI.
