===Incapacitated and Dying=== | ===Incapacitated and Dying=== | ||
Essence-Users do not die when taken below Incapacitated. They are merely disabled.

Ending an Exalt is considered bad form, as reoccurring opponents are nice to have. Bonus XP will be rewarded for not killing important characters at the Storyteller's discretion. | Essence-Users do not die when taken below Incapacitated. They are merely disabled.
