The Exodite approach to technology is drastically different from their Aeldari cousins, viewing the rigor of physical labour as better for their souls than the convenience of technology (e.g. choosing to climb stairs rather than use [[Grav-vehicle|gravitic impellers]]),{{Fn|19}} but their mastery of ancient Eldar technologies has not atrophied. When threatened with war, all prohibitions are set aside{{Fn|25}} and the Exodites empty their armouries of ancient weaponry to become a deadly fighting force. Exodites generally prefer to make their tools and clothing from materials native to their Maiden World, as psychoplastics like [[Wraithbone]] are scarce, but Exodites will substitute [[Dragon]] bone in their [[Bonesinger|Bonesinging]]{{Fn|6}} and will otherwise trade with the craftworlds for any materials they cannot create themselves.{{Fn|2a}} Their intentional neglect of technology, and demand for craftworld materials, has lead to the mistaken belief among the [[Asuryani]] that the [[Exodite World]]s are backward and rustic.{{Fn|2a}} Like their [[Asuryani]] cousins, Exodites wear spirit stones, although their stones are shattered on altars{{Fn|2a}} and the [[Worldsinger]]{{Fn|15}} joins their spirits with the [[World Spirit]] when they die.
