Defeat

Defeat is a state that Characters enter in Terrene Odyssey when the total damage applied to them is equal or greater than their HP value. Characters can also be defeated by trigger abilities directly.

When a character is defeated they and any Items or Commands they were controlling are moved to the Discard and the character responsible for the killing blow to that character gains XP. The killing blow can be gained through attacks, items or commands while still granting credit for XP.

XP is gained before the character(s) are moved to the Discard, so in the case that a character defeats another with their last breath, any non-character XP rewards (such as card draws or extra actions) are gained by the character's controller.
