| Limit Break Condition: | The character suffers a drastic setback, or someone questions or belittles her prowess. | ||||||||
| The character loses confidence in herself, and feels that other people are undervaluing her. When her limit breaks, the character becomes surly and antagonistic, wilfully provoking everyone she meets in an attempt to reclaim her self-esteem. This will always result in the character suffering at least a -2 penalty to all social rolls, as every conversation invariably degenerates into her picking a fight. She will constantly taunt and belittle others, maybe even hauling off and slugging them one if she feels like she's not making any headway (i.e., they don't rise to her baiting). Attempts to placate the character will provoke even more anger, as she will resent being "talked down to" or "treated like a child." Her antagonistic attitude is especially likely to be directed at other members of the character's Circle, as they're readily accessible and are also likely to be the people who make the character feel the most insecure in her powers. This limit break lasts for a number of days equal to Valor. | |||||||||

The Solar may spend 1 Willpower point and an additional Any material conjured using this Charm bears a slight solar glow and surreal quality which marks it as a project of magical creation.

| Sudden Creation Method | Pg.184 | Simple | 10m 1W | |||||
| At a pinnacle of her mundane craftsmanship, the Solar who has mastered this Charm need no longer dedicate great quantities of time to the performance of her craft. The Solar may specify any one mundane crafting task she wishes to perform when she activates this Charm, and rolls (Attribute) + Craft as normal. If the roll is a success, the Solar completes the task instantly: she must still have access to tools and raw materials, but the task itself takes no time to complete. If this Charm is instead applied to an act of magical crafting (such as the creation of an Artifact or Manse) it instead allows the Exalt to make a single roll towards the extended roll needed for success, without spending the necessary time to do so. | ||||||||

In addition, this character works more swiftly than normal, performing Craft tasks in 75% of the normal time.

| The character and his goods, up to a fully laden horse, are protected from the warping effects of the Wyld. Lasts 1 day. | ||||||||
| Wyld-Shaping Technique | Pg.186 | Simple | 20m 1W | |||||
| When in the Wyld, you can shape things out of the chaos. It must be used in the deepest Wyld zones. Roll Essence as an extended roll, with the cost being paid every turn. The number of successes depends on what you're trying to Shape. If the player botches at any time, horrible side effects result such as his fears coming to life. Large objects/places left alone for a long time will revert to the Wyld again. | ||||||||
| Pattern-Imposing Method | SI Pg. | Simple | 15m 1W | |||||
| When faced with enemies who use the fluidity of the Wyld as a weapon, the Solar can eliminate that advantage by bringing temporary stability to the Wyld's chaos. Upon activating this Charm, the area surrounding the character for (2 x Permanent Essence) yards becomes crystallized and ordered. Any improbable objects within the area return to their nearest realistic state. Anyone within that space suffers no negative effects such as mutation or Wyld addiction for the duration of this Charm. In addition, all attempts to consciously direct Wyld energies within the region -- including the use of Charms like Wyld-Shaping Technique and Fair Folk powers -- suffers an additional difficulty equal to the character's permanent Essence. it doesn't kill actual fae, just gives them wicked bad penalties to use charms/glamour sorcery | ||||||||
| Wyld-Cleansing Technique | SI Pg. | Simple | 20m 2W 2L | |||||
| With this Charm, an Exalt can entirely eliminate the taint of the Wyld from an area, returning it to stability. In order to use it, the Solar must pace out the border of the space which he wishes to restore -- whose border can be no longer than 100 yards per dot of Permanent Essence. Once the border is marked, the Exalt must enter a meditative state to guide the cleansing, which lasts a number of hours determined by the intensity of the Wyld energies -- one hour for Bordermarches, five for Middlemarches, and ten for Deep Wyld. At the conclusion of this meditation, the area is suffused with golden light, and the Wyld energy is removed entirely. From that point onward, the space in question has the stability of Creation, although it can be reclaimed by the Wyld in the normal fashion. This Charm may be used to create pockets of stability within the Wyld proper, or to expand the borders of Creation proper, as well as to cleanse isolated Wyld zones; however, additional magics may be necessary to prevent the areas being recovered from rapidly returning to a Wyld state | ||||||||
| Multiple Solars may activate this Charm in concert, in which case their allotted border lengths are added together, allowing them to stabilize increasingly larger Wyld zones. |
| Sun Bolt | SI Pg. | Simple | 1 per 2L | |||||

| Raiding the Royal Arsenal | SI Pg. | Special | None | |||||
| The Exalt has come to a great understanding of melee weapons, letting him create a personal attachment to several of them. After purchasing this Charm, the character may develop a personal connection to a number of weapons equal to his Melee score, allowing all of these weapons to be used with Summoning The Loyal Steel. The Exalt may freely choose which weapon to summon each time he activates the Charm. If he wishes to connect to a new weapon after already reaching the maximum, he may choose which weapon he will cease his connection to; if that weapon is currently banished to Elsewhere, he must retrieve it before removing the connection. | ||||||||

The character may continue to fight as normal using other weapons. | ||||||||

| By dripping venom into the correct ears, the Solar can create a rumor which refuses to yield its grip upon those who hear it. The Solar need merely state an item of gossip to a willing listener, then spend 15 motes and 1 Willpower. This rumor may be true or false, but it must target a specific individual. The listener the Solar first shares it with will forget the source she heard it from, and quickly repeat the story; within days, everyone who might be affected has heard the rumor -- and, moreover, believes it. As long as the Solar keeps the motes committed, the rumor will continue to spread, and those who hear it will be strongly biased towards believing it, even if it is ridiculous or nonsensical. | ||||||||

For each net success on this roll, the target must spend an additional 2 motes to activate the Charm, or allow it to dissipate without effect. The target still must pay any standard costs for the Charm, \\ however. Note that if this Charm is used against a Reflexive Charm, the target may immediately reactivate that Charm. | ||||||||
| Charm-Annulling Strike | SI Pg?.122 | Supp. | 5m 1W | |||||
| The Solar directly cuts apart the weave of Essence at the heart of an enemy’s Charm, negating its effects.

| Demon of the First Circle | Pg. 218 | 20+m | ||||||
| Casting this spell is a ritual of many hours which must be begun at sundown and end at the stroke of midnight, and it involves a great number of magical implements and protective sigils. Casting outside a dedicated ritual space is difficult. Once summoned, the sorc and demon engage in contested WP+Ess rolls. The caster may spend Essence in 5-mote increments to reduce the demon's WP+Ess roll by one die. Continue to roll until one has achieved 3 more successes than the other. If the character gains 3 or more successes, the demon will serve him loyally for a year and a day, or perform one task of finite or infinite duration. If the demon wins, the character may make a reflexive Wits+Occult roll at diff3 to banish the demon back to Malfaes. If he fails, the demon is free of the protective diagram. | ||||||||
| Emerald Circle Countermagic | Pg. 218 | 10 or 20m | ||||||

| Summon Elemental | Pg.219 | 10+m | ||||||
| As Demon of the First Circle, with these exceptions: It can be cast at any time, and takes 4 hours. The roll to banish is dif 1. The elemental will not serve for more than a lunar month, or a task of a year and a day. The kidnap and enslavement of Elementals can piss off the Celestial Hierarchy if you treat them badly. | ||||||||
| Ritual of Elemental Empowerment | S&S Pg.114 | 30m | ||||||
| The ritual is cast from dawn to noon on a clear day, and must be performed with the aid of an elemental with the affinity of the element to be empowered, and have at least Ess 3. First the sorc purifies the item, then invokes the blessings of the 5 dragons, beginning with the element to be empowered. When this isdone, the elemental strikes the item five times, once for each Dragon, spending 5m Ess per strike. Together with teh caster's Essence, this enchants the item to have fantastic powers. This is permanent. Only one instance of Ro EE? can be on an item at a time. Only mundane nonliving items can be empowered. | ||||||||
| The item can EITHER have its weight reduced by 1/5th...this increases weapon speed by 1, and reduces armor mobility and fatigue by 1. OR enchant it so that it becomes cool or cold upon command by committing 1 Ess. Cold adds 2L damage. | Air | |||||||
| Enchanting an item with the element of Earth makes it extraordinarily tough. Clothing never wears out, swords never need sharpening, armor gains additional protection for its bearer. Add 2L/2B to any item so empowered. | Earth | |||||||
| Fire empowerment allows an item to become warm or hot. Commit 1 mote to warm, or add 2L fire damage. OR enchant an item to be immune to fire. | Fire | |||||||
| An item enchanted with Water can change its shape on command. It maintains material qualities, mass and weight, but can adjust its form to the bearer's will. Clothing can retailor itself. Weapons can become unobtrusive items of similar size. Armor can fold up into a compact cube. If damaged while shapeshifted, it will maintain the damage in other forms until repaired. Commit 1 mote to activate. | Water | |||||||
| Empowering with Wood allows the object to regenerate rapildy. Dents and cuts in armor seal up. Clothing mends its own tears. W Eapons? becaome like new after battles. So long as an item has not take enough HL to destroy it, it will heal at 1 HL per hour. | Wood | |||||||

| Awakening of the Dragons | Pg.220 | X+m | ||||||
| Unlock the sentience of young Dragon Kings from their bestial state. This involves a lengthy ritual, during which the Dragon King must stay within the ritual circle. | ||||||||
| Demon of the Second Circle | Pg.220 | 30+m | ||||||
| Similar to Do 1 C?, but the demon is more powerful and dangerous, and it costs 10m/die to reduce the demon's pool. | ||||||||
| Sapphire Circle Banishment | S&S Pg.105 | 15+m | ||||||
| SCB goes into effect as soon as the WP is spent. The caster goes into a contested WP + Ess challenge with the demon. The caster may spend Essence in 5-mote increments to reduce the demon's WP+Ess roll by one die. Continue until one has reached the other's Essence score in successes. If the demon wins, it stays in Creation and the sorc cannot attempt another banishment for 5 days. If the sorc wins, the demon is immediately banished back to Malfaes. Using SCB on a 1st Circle Demon gives the caster 3 automatic successes. | ||||||||
| Magma Kraken | S&S Pg.131 | 35m | ||||||
| Upon casting this spell, bright red strands of Essence emanate from the caster's fingertips and burrow into the ground within 500 yards. The earth begins to shake in an area extending 50 yards from where the strands struck the ground. On the next turn, tremendous tentacles of superheated molten rock erupt from the ground and sweep through the caster's foes. | ||||||||
| The caster chooses where in the 50-yard radius each of the tentacles erupts. Playres of those near where a tentacle bursts forth must make a reflexive Dex+Athletics roll dif 2 to avoid being knocked over. The tentacles last an entire scene unless destroyed or countered. When the spell ends, the kraken tentacles harden into serpentine structures of obsidian. |
| There are 10 kraken tentacles at the time of casting, each 15 yards long. All of the tentacles have Strength 10 + Caster's Perm Essence. They have a Brawl rating equal to the caster's Occult score, act on the caster's initiative, and deal raw damage of 5L+Str10+Ess. Successes add to damage as usual. 10s count twice. Damage is considered fire damage. |
| Kraken tentacles have no social or mental atts, and no Stamina. The tentacles are constructs of Essence, and have a sorcerous awareness of the caster's foes that are in range. Kraken tentacles ignore all bashing damage and soak the first 10L of lethal damage from any given attack. They have 10 HL, and regenerate at the endo f each turn. A tentacle must take 10 HL of damage in a single turn to be destroyed. |
| The caster may take control of a tentacle and use it to do a clinch maneuver. This takes the caster's full concentration and is equivalent to a simple-type Charm so he cannot activate Charms that are not reflexive, split his dice pools, or cast spells. After the first turn of control, the sorc may take one additional tentacle under his control each turn, and can control a maximum number of tentacles equal to his Perception. All of these tentacles may attempt to cling or grapple at their full dice pool, while the others mindlessly smash the closest foe. If the caster's concentration is broken, the clinch or hold of all the tentacles is broken. |

| War Bell | ||||||||
| A rare and arcane weapon, the War Bell is about the size of a man's head and is decorated with musical symbols noting the various tones it can reach. When struck, the appropriate symbols glow brilliant gold. The War Bell has three primary functions, all controlled by the striker of the bell and how many times the bell is struck in succession. The War Bell, when rung once, makes a normal attack against everyone within 10 yards. This attack uses the owner's Dexterity + Performance as its base pool. When rung twice, the War Bell attacks demons and fae, filling their ears with a pure tone that causes them to writhe in agony. Such creatures take aggravated damage from this attack. When rung three times, the War Bell's tones take hold of its foes provided it does more damage then their Temperance. For a number of turns equal to the extra damage successes rolled, they are under the control of the bell's player. | ||||||||
| The War Bell is rung quickly, two rings or three being in such quick succession that the effects of one or two rings do not take place. So ringing the War Bell three times is a single action, but ringing it once three times in a row is three actions. It should also be noted that the effect of three rings on demons and fae does normal, not aggravated damage, in its attempt to control them and is an attack that simply has extra effects. | ||||||||

| Exquisite Bonds of Rapture - Art 5 Moonsilver scarves Committment 3m per scarf from owner, 2m (forced) each from subject if Exalted | ||||||||
| Originally intended for the purposes of seduction and the bedroom arts, this artifact can also be used for more sinister purposes, such as brainwashing and 'training' of the subject. The set of five moonsilver scarves' powers are seductive and insidious. They look and feel like deep purple silk shot through with intricate designs in silver thread, picturing all sorts of interesting things. | ||||||||
| Wherever the Bonds meet eachother, they can be commanded to seal together seamlessly. This means that no amount of trying can actually untie them, they must be broken to escape. They have 10L/20B soak, and 10L of damage must be done in one turn, or they magically re-seal themselves at the end of the turn. | ||||||||
| The Bonds can each extend in length from one to ten feet. This permits the entire body of the subject to be encased, and sealed with but a thought by the owner. It is wise to leave a breathing hole or two. | ||||||||
| The Bonds can range in temperature from icy cold to blazing heat. The owner can choose whether or not they cause damage at the extreme ends of the scale. If so, they can do from 1L up to 2L per foot of fabric touching the skin of either Fire or Ice damage, depending on the whim of the owner (aka 1L to 20L each). It can also create an electrical circuit between any two or more of the Bonds, which the owner can choose to cause 2L of electrical damage. | ||||||||
| In addition, they can be caused to enhance the sensations of the subject's entire body, although it is most intense where covered directly by the silks. The lightest touch can feel like the most intense pleasure, and the tiniest pain can be amplified to feel like shattered bones. The owner controls the degree of intensification. | ||||||||
| The reverse is also true. The Exquisite Bonds of Rapture can produce no sensation at all. A blindfold would let no sight through, bound around the ears, no sound would penetrate. A gag could be tied which no sound could penetrate, allowing the subject's screams to be completely silent. When used while the subject is completely mummified, this creates a feeling of complete sensory deprivation. If suspended this way for too long, many subjects will be driven mad. (Willpower roll, dif the number of days so suspended) | ||||||||
| During the Sensory Deprivation mode, the owner can spend one mote for one sense originating from her body to penetrate the Bonds. Touch, smell, taste, sight, and sound are all useful in their ways, and are subject to amplification for an additional mote. | ||||||||
| If the ends of the scarves are left free, the owner can turn them into a toy of any type she desires, which will then break off from it. If it requires power, 1 mote must be committed for as long as it is on. These can be returned to the scarves at any point, and new ones extracted. | ||||||||
| With the committment of 5 motes to one of the Bonds, any whole trailing ends will come alive and perform the commands of the owner, with but a thought. | ||||||||
| The bonds have mastery over their subject's body, and can prevent, prolong, or cause an orgasm of the desired intensity. | ||||||||
| Perhaps the most frightening of its powers, is that the Bonds can inflict any emotion upon its subject that their owner desires. This can range from abject terror, to consuming lust, to purest love, and deep trust. The owner can spend up to their Essence in motes, which becomes the difficulty of the Conviction roll to oppose it. Exalts may spend 1 Willpower to double their Conviction roll to resist. While entranced, the emotion seems to have come from the subject, and feels entirely real. Afterwards, however, a Per+Socialize? roll can be made to determine whether the subject realizes the emotions were imposed on him or her. |

| Essence-Blocking Collars | When placed upon the victim's neck, these collars force the Exalt to commit 1 mote of essence, which seals the lock. If the Exalt is out of Essence, they must commit 1WP. While wearing a locked collar, the Exalt cannot channel any Essence. When she tries, the collar causes it to feedback and fail, causing 1B damage. This will not bring the victim below incapacitated. The only way to unlock them is via Zahara spending 1m Essence to do so, as she has worked her prior incarnation's bones into the collars themselves, however simply placing them around the neck of the proper type of exalt will lock them. These collars only work the type of exalt they were designed for. In existance currently are 5 Dragon-Blooded, 1 Solar, 1 Abyssal and 1 Lunar collar, and 1 tree-god collar with the templates securely locked away. | |||||||

| Scenelong. The Exalt’s weapon is her ultimate defense, standing vigilantly between her and anything which might bring her harm. For the remainder of the scene, the character may each turn perfectly block a number of incoming attacks she is aware of equal to her Melee score. This Charm cannot block attacks which are specifi cally unblockable, however. As with other Solar perfect parries, mundane weapons may not survive the parry attempt if used against sufficiently powerful attacks. | ||||||||
