OK, say I've summoned a big fat possession spirit and allowed it to possess me. I then get double tapped in the head with Stick'n'Shock and knocked out. Is the spirit disrupted?

Street Magic p94 is a bit ambiguous on the subject, on the one hand it could be read as saying that to disrupt a possession spirit that is in possession of a vessel using physical damage one can't get away with just filling it's condition monitor, one must do it enough physical damage overflow to kill/destroy the vessel.

On the other hand it might also be saying that a spirit in possession of a vessel cannot be disrupted by filling it's Stun condition monitor.

I'm confused, presumably an unconscious spirit is unable to maintain the possession power and is forced back into the astral where it's full stun condition monitor causes it to be disrupted.

Or am I missing something?
