Derogatory term coined by the Immaculate Order for the fallen Exalted of the First Age.
Commonly used to describe all kinds of threat to creation.
"Anathema: The term the Immaculate Order uses to describe the Solar, Lunar and, recently, Abyssal Exalted. In the catechism of the Immaculates, Anathema are individuals who have become conduits for dark power and whose souls have been forever tainted by the influence of evil spirits. This doctrine is typically accepted without question in the Realm. It was previously observed in the Threshold because the Realm forced its tributary states to pay lip service to the Immaculates. Today, few Thresholders unquestioningly accept the dictrine of the Anathema."
- from Exalted Core Book, page 13

An open-source campaign management toolkit.

Hmm. I don't think I've seen "Anathema" used to describe any threats to Creation besides Celestials. I thought it was a specific term for them ... got any page refs?
