Wracking Pain Strike
Cost: 2 motes Duration: Instant Type: Supplemental Minimum Melee: 3 Minimum Essence: 2 Prerequisite Charms: Savage Shade Style
The Abyssal's charms strike deep and effectively, the blade following the natural lines of the bodies essence, and the exalt flooding the wound with necrotic essence. An attack enhanced with this charm leaves particularly painful, bleeding, disease-prone wounds. So long as the attack inflicts at least one level of damage, the Abyssal gives the target a -2 wound penality that stacks with his natural wound penality. This penality increases by -1 each time this charm is successfully used on the same victim. In addition, these wounds are more likely to become infected, gaining a difficulty penality to the Stamina + Resistance roll to avoid infection equal to the Abyssals essence.
Grip-Weakining Disarming Blow
Cost: 1 mote per die Duration: Instant Type: Supplemental Minimum Melee: 3 Minimum Essence: 2 Prerequisite Charms: Five Shadow Feint
The Abyssal strikes out at his opponents weapon with a brutal strike, channeling entropic essence through his blade and into his opponents weapon arm. The disarm attempt is resolved normally, according to the rules on page 238 of the Exalted corebook. If the disarm attempt is successful, the defender looses one die from his Wits + Melee roll to retain his weapon for every mote that the Abyssal spent when activating this charm. This cannot lower the opponents pool lower than his Essence rating, and the Abyssal must activate this charm prior to making the attack roll for the Disarm attempt. After successfully disarming an opponent, the weapon flies a number of yards away equal to the Abyssals (Strength x 5) in a direction of the Abyssals choice.
