Piercing Sun Strike
[First Melee, Hungry Tiger, One/Two, Dipping Swallow, *Enemy-Castigating*] (8xp [4bp])
Jackal's spear crackles with essence covering it in a halo of yellow light. It hisses through the air as it moves giving off great heat when it strikes. It hits harder, quicker, and more often while leaving him plenty of speed to defend.
Base Cost: 1 willpower
Per Attack: 1 mote to double attack successes
Optional: 1 mote for +1 to Rate/Accuracy for one action.
Optional: 1 mote per die to boost Melee pools or PDV.
Optional: 2m to convert the damage of your attack to Aggravated against Creatures of Darkness.
Optional: 2 motes to negate all PDV Penalties, OR 4 motes to Perfectly Defend against an attack.
Effect: The Solar takes an Attack or Flurry action, spending 1 mote per attack to boost the damage of each strike and may spend 1 additional mote to boost his Accuracy and Rate by one. He may spend additional essence for each attack to increase its overall attack and/or defense statistics, make the attack Holy, negate PDV penalties or to perfectly parry an attack.
Vigilant Steel Bulwark
[First Melee, Fivefold Bulwark Stance, Dipping Swallow, Shadow Over Water, Reflex Sidestep Technique] (14xp)
(Insert description of Combo here!)
Base Cost: 5 motes, 2 Willpower; Simple action
Optional: 1 mote to negate all DDV Penalties.
Optional: 1 mote per die to boost Melee pools or PDV.
Optional: 1 mote to remove the Unexpected tag from an attack.
Optional: 2 motes to negate all PDV Penalties, OR 4 motes to Perfectly Defend against an attack.
Effect: Jackal spends on action putting up Fivefold Bulwark Stance, becoming immune to Onslaught Penalties and lowering the DV penalty for attacking by 1. He is capable of defending against Unexpected attacks -- for 1m per attack -- with his PDV if armed, and his DDV if caught without a weapon. He heavily favors Parry in this stance, able to remove penalties, boost his rating or utilize a perfect defense.
Opportunistic Viper (Valor)
Utterly obsessed with victory regardless of the means or cost, the character abandons all restraints and lets nothing stand between him and doing whatever he needs to do to achieve success. He will gladly sacrifice allies, followers friends or even his Circlemates if doing so would bring him closer to success. He will take any action necessary to achieve a quick victory, regardless of the moral implications they might entail, with no atrocity being beyond the pale if it might help him meet his current goal. While the character will not go out of his way to betray his morals, he doesn't let any such "outdated beliefs" limit his actions in any way. He will take any action in pursuit of victory.
Partial Control: There are still some lines that the character will not cross. He will not sacrifice those loyal to him, but has no care about putting them in danger, and he can refrain from commiting truly atrocious action if he would normally refrain from such. Any other action that might bring him an advantage is still fair game.
Duration: One Full Day
Limit Break Condition: "You're pushed into a unfortunate situation via way of your moral boundaries."
