Abyssal Athletics Charms

Flexiblity of Boneless Flesh

  Cost: 3m; Mins: Athletics 3, Essence 3; Type: Reflexive
  Keywords: Combo-Ok
  Duration: Scene
  Prerequisite Charms: Any Athletics Excellency

The Abyssal channels powerful entropic essence into their bones. They transform becoming only partially material within, leaving viscera hanging in the mist filled bag of flesh that their body has become. Their lack of rigid bones allows them to bend and contort in utterly inhuman ways. The difficulty of any Athletics roll requiring flexibility is lowered by 3. Should it be lowered below a difficulty of 1, they automatically succeed. As a bonus, the Abyssal gains 2 automatic successes to escape a clinch.

Passage Through Void-Touched Shadows

  Cost: (+2m); Mins: Athletics 5, Essence 4; Type: Permanent
  Keywords: Avatar (1)
  Duration: Permanent
  Prerequisite Charms: On Wings of Night

Oblivion underlies all of reality, and that which is above it is flawed. By attuning his senses to these cracks, an Abyssal able to pass through them properly moves without touching the space in between, if not erratically moving. This charm is activated with a two mote surcharge spent on its prerequisite charm. In combat this adds +2 to the Abyssal's parry or dodge DV as it is difficult to predict their seemingly random movements without movement.

But the important effects comparatively are those upon high speed travel outside of combat. First, the charm's duration is extended to an hour as the shadows of the void refresh the wings.. Next, subsequent hours of use don't require spending the willpower again, and lastly, the Abyssal travels at (Dexterity + Essence + Abyss Mastery) x 10 miles every hour. Should the character enter combat during travel, their speed in combat is that of On Wings of Night normally.
