Piercing Sun Strike
(First Melee Excellency, Hungry Tiger Technique, One Weapon Two Blows, Dipping Swallow Defense)
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: 2 motes to negate all PDV Penalties.
Optional: 1 mote per die to boost Melee pools or PDV.
Optional: 1 mote for +1 to Rate/Accuracy for the action.
Effect: Each of your attacks doubles its successes for calculation of raw damage. You may spend 1m per die to add dice to your Melee attacks or to boost your PDV against an attack, as well as spending 2m to remove any and all penalties to your PDV. You may spend 1m to add +1 to Rate and Accuracy for the entire action.
Other Notes
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 While the character will not go out of his way to betray his morals, he doesn't let any such "outdated beliefs" limit his actions in any way.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: "Whenever you find yourself with an easy way around a difficult or dangerous situation."
