Anima Banner:
Phoenix of Ashes's anima banner is a pillar of purple-black, scrolling smoke. (Think Wind Waker FX here.) At its base it is tinged with white-gold lights that come from within; her Caste Mark fills with white stars as the anima becomes more intense.
0 Motes	No display.
1-3 Motes	As she begins to spend Peripheral Essence, Phoenix of Ashes's Castemark appears and begins to flicker with otherworldly luminosity. Anyone who can see her can make a Perception + Awareness roll at standard difficulty to notice it.
4-7 Motes	At this level of display, Phoenix of Ashes's Castemark glows like a beacon, and its light will shine through anything placed over it.
8-10 motes	Now spiralling, gold-edged smoke begins to issue from Phoenix of Ashes's feet. The display fades quickly and cannot be seen through treetops, but her Castemark is strong and bright.
11-15 motes	The smoke rises higher up, always vertically as if there were no wind, and its light is visible for miles. Inside it, there is a sound of birds and a smell of blood mixed with chocolate and incense.
16+ motes	The smoke engulfs Smoking Mirror and turns him into a gigantic, wispy quetzal-beast whose tailfeathers end in serpents' heads; he spirals around Phoenix of Ashes like a constricting python.

Virtue Flaw	Berserk Anger
Limit Break Condition:	The character has to face the consequences of her actions, or is otherwise shown she is fallible.

Backgrounds (7)	Value	Notes

Allies	*****	The Red Court of Desiccation maintains Fire House and the surrounding lands. They have assigned Smoking Mirror to serve as a liaison and bodyguard to Phoenix of Ashes.
Artifact	*****	Reborn Ecstatic Plume *, a sword made of three Chiaroscuro glass feathers, is Phoenix of Ashes's personal weapon and enables her to communicate with birds. The original Ecstatic Plume was destroyed in the Primordial War when it was used to parry a Yozi's attack, but has somehow reconstituted itself.
		Hearthstone Bracers , Orichalque, these bracers have a setting for the Gem of Perfect Mobility.
Familiar	***\|	Smoking Mirror, an obsidian quetzal who eats hearts. His eyes are full of smoke. Significant combat capabilities, intelligent as an adult human, can communicate telepathically with its master, five Charms.
Manse	*****	Gem of Perfect Mobility, A red jewel that glows as bright as a candle, its facets shift in the moving air, making it look like a globe of dim fire. In still air, though, it is still, and its shape reveals itself to be the many-faceted brilliant cut of fine diamonds. Its bearer moves twice as fast and can take two normal actions each turn.
		The Gem of Perfect Mobility is produced by Fire House, a Manse in the South. Carved out of a gigantic ametrine, this building fades from deep violet at its base to honeyed gold at the roofs of its many tangled loggias and terraces. The sprawl of crystal is made opaque by many white tapestries, on which idyllic pastoral scenes are depicted in woven bas-relief. Deep in the centre of the Manse is a fountain of natural gas upon which the Hearthstone forms; this gas permeates the whole area, making the Demesne smell like lightning and creating translucent veils of cool flame which can be passed through safely, and produce enough light and movement at night to make Fire House seem populated at all times.
