The people of Khemit believe that each person consists of nine parts:

Ab: Heart, which is the seat of Wisdom
Ba: Soul, sublime, noble, and mighty, which can remain with the Ka (see below) or become ethereal, corporeal, etc.
Ikh: Glorified being, which may become a Sahu (an incorruptible spirit being), a portion of Intelligence.
Ka: Double of the physical self, which lives on within the tomb, a portion of Strength.
Khaibet: Shadow, which always lingers near the Ba, a portion of Dexterity.
Khat: Body (and corpse, eventually mummified), a portion of Constitution.
Khu. Spirit, which travels where it will. This trait is a portion of Charisma.
Ren: Name, which must remain, for the destruction of the Ren will destroy all other parts; also seen as Ran, a portion of Intelligence.
Sekem: Power and vital force, which goes on to the Afterlife - a portion of all characteristics.
