I've been reading a lot of more fantasy-themed wuxia web novels recently, and one thing that turns up again and again in them is the concept of special medicines that can be used to help people refine their inner energy, improve their spiritual cultivation, and generally raise whatever attribute the setting has that seems comparable to Essence. (eg. in Tales of Demons and Gods it's something they're constantly fighting over later on.)
Is that a thing in Exalted? Obviously there's no real room for it to be mechanically meaningful for PCs, but it seems like something the Dragon-Blooded would fight over and struggle to control.
