By FourWillowsWeeping.
=== Background ===
This charm tree is intended, stylistically, to be used with a spear; it is the first of a planned group of Melee styles in the way of Martial Arts styles. (None of which have been written yet; I'm in the process of making flasy color-themed styles for real MA right now).

In addition, he may spend Essence to enhance parries on a 1 mote per 2 dice basis. An Exalt can only benefit from the effects of one Form-type Charm at a time; if a new one is activated, the previous Form ends.
