Character of those whose energy is raised right up (5)
I believe the answer is:
ethos
'energy is raised right up' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'character of those' is the wordplay.
'character of' indicates an anagram (I've seen 'characters' mean this).
'those' is an anagram of 'ETHOS'.
'whose' is the link.
(Other definitions for ethos that I've seen before include "Spirit (of a group, say)" , "Distinctive attitudes of a people" , "Those with characteristic community belief" , "Characteristic spirit of a culture or era" , "Distinctive traits of a culture, time etc" .)
