Fallen depend on a substance called [[Ether]] to survive, which only [[Servitor]]s can produce. Servitors convert scavenged matter and energy, presented to them ritualistically by the Fallen, directly into ether via unknown processes.<ref name="ServitorGrimoire">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies#Servitor|Servitor]]''</ref> While Servitors were revered in ancient times, they have now become a symbol of the degradation of Fallen society and their lost glory. Higher-ranking Fallen get a bigger ration of ether, and more ether allows Fallen to grow in size; this is why Captains are taller than Vandals or Dregs, and why Kells and Archons tower over other Fallen; the Kell of a House controls and distributes ether flow using their own personal Cipher.<ref name="TEC">'''Bungie (2015/5/22)''', ''Destiny, Activision Blizzard: [[Bounties#The Elder Cipher|The Elder Cipher exotic weapon bounty]]''</ref> When a Fallen is killed, a quantity of ether escapes its body and dissipates.<ref name="E3 2013 Demo">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXTXPe7JIUk E3 2013 Destiny Gameplay Demo]</ref> | Fallen depend on a substance called [[Ether]] to survive, which only [[Servitor]]s can produce.
