* If there's a positive Intimacy between an Abyssal {{Exalted}} and his or her Lunar mate, almost ''none'' of the usual Abyssal rules apply to that person. The Abyssal can ''fight their Deathlord'' to protect the Lunar. Bear in mind, usually "fighting your Deathlord" is synonymous with "putting your character sheet into a paper shredder".

** Actually, those are the rules. When a Behelit activates, the dying owner is given a choice to either die or sacrifice whatever is most important to them and be reborn as a demon. The Count offers literally anything ELSE when presented with Theresia as the price, but it has to be Theresia because that's the only thing the Count cares about. That "anything" being for the Count to accept death, and since he's already a demon he's obviously going to Hell. Forever. God is a Jerkass in the Berserk universe, if not the ultimate evil.
