Final Destruction

Nothing is truly immortal; Demons have lived since the very creation of the universe, but even they can be killed.

Their energies can be dissipated, cannibalized by their enemies. A light that has shone from the beginning of time finally winks out.

When a Demon is in their apocalyptic form, having been expelled from their vessel in some way, they are unaffected by almost all physical or supernatural entities, yet all Demons possess the ability to destroy a discorporate Celestial and consume their energies to make themselves stronger.

To consume a Celestial, the Demon needs to breathe in the energies from a victim's revelatory form. Doing so doesn't necessarily require bodly contact, but the two must be within arm's reach. The Celestial can attempt to flee, being unaffected by gravity or obstacles, so the Demon seeking to inhale their energies must act quickly.

Once the Demon is close enough, their player makes a Faith roll; the victim resists with their Faith or Torment rating — whichever is higher. If the Demon knows their victim's True Name, they add the victim's Faith rating to their own dice pool.

If the victim wins the contest, they steal a number of Faith points equal to their successes from their aggressor, and they can continue looking for a new vessel; if the aggressor earns more successes than the victim, they consume their energies, and gain strength from them. In this case, the victim is permanently destroyed.
