In addition, his vital signs all but stop while he's Incapacitated, giving him benefits comparable to Plague Knows Its Master, Corpse Needs No Food and Breathless Ghost Emulation and making him appear dead to all examination. If a Charm opposes this effect, add the Abyssal's Essence rating in bonus successes to the contested roll. Deathknights cannot purchase this Charm more times than they have dots of Resistance.
