lifeforce
Animating inner essence
Lifeforce is the vital energy believed to animate living beings—the spark that distinguishes the living from the dead.
The concept appears across spiritual traditions and science fiction, often as something that can be drained, transferred, or extinguished: The vampire fed on her lifeforce.
Also spelled as two words: life force.
