I've recently read the Yu Shan book for Exalted and I was intrigued by the unemployed gods — those that lost their domain to the Wyld and have not gained any new position in the Bureaucracy. They don't seem to be statted out anywhere or really talked about all that much.

They live in the slums, may be getting their fair share of Quintessence from the common pool, but they don't get Amrosia through prayer, nor through a stipend for an office they hold.

So I wonder — how much and what kind of power do such gods have? What does the prolonged lack of a job do to them?
