			===Can I send messages if I'm not a Cryptographer?===
			Yes, but messages not sent by a [[Cryptographer]] are not secure, and could be read by the authorities or others hostile to you or the movement. If you're sending anything sensitive, you probably want to go through a Cryptographer.

	For starters, everyone will have to make a wound draw from being down for longer than 15 seconds. After that there may be further immediate consequences, such as the PCs being looted, having harmful [[EFFECT]]s applied, or have further non-Dire wounds inflicted upon them. There will almost certainly be knock-on effects on later linear encounters or plot due to the NPCs succeeding at their goal. After making their wound draws PCs are revived on one hit point and can continue.		For starters, everyone will have to make a wound draw from being down for longer than 15 seconds.

	====Can I capture people?====		===Can I capture people?===
	Yes, but you must pay attention to your captive to prevent them from escaping. If you incapacitate someone and then distract them sufficiently with interaction they will not recover from their incapacitated state. If you ignore them for long however they may be able to gather their strength and make a run for it. A terminal character can be restrained with appropriate roleplay, preventing them from leaving or performing any actions. You should inform the refs if you intend to take a character captive, and should inform a ref as soon as possible if you spontaneously take a character captive.

	It's up to you how you respond to roleplaying effects, but they should change your behaviour; you can't just push through them. These effects represent particularly strong influences that require an equally strong effect to counter them, such as a skill or mantra. If you want to play a character who isn't rattled by anything, you can take the [[Iron Will]] skill to back up your characterisation.
