Heavenly Pillar Stubbornness</b>
 <b>Cost: 2m; Mins: Integrity 3, Essence 1; Type: Reflexive (Step 2)
 Keywords: Combo-Ok, Social
 Duration: Instant
 Prerequisite Charms: None

Deep within any Solar is the fundamental drive of a hero-- the stubborn refusal to compromise in ideals or excellence. While this can sometimes be to a Solar's detriment, pushing her to proceed with her chosen course of action despite better counsels, a Lawgiver can tap that unyielding stubbornness to her advantage, shrugging off weariness or bulling through complex debate tactics. For one Social Defense, remove all penalties to the character's Dodge MDV.


Golden Bull's Crown</b>
 <b>Cost: 6m, 1 wp; Mins: Integrity 5, Essence 3; Type: Simple
 Keywords: Combo-Ok, Social, Obvious
 Duration: One Scene
 Prerequisite Charms:   Heavenly Pillar Stubbornness, Elusive Dream Defense, Any Integrity Excellency

The true might of a Lawgiver's determination is not dampened by rapid-fire argument, or by many chiming in against him once released by this Charm. Upon activation, a golden corona surmounts the Solar's brow, shining forth to declare a Prince of the Earth and his unstoppable will. Only true mastery of the ways of debate and the righteousness of a cause can penetrate; the choruses of those who stand against the Lawgiver go unheard, and the rapid chattering of the quick-tongued will fail to overwhelm him. For the rest of the scene, ignore all penalties to the character's MDV stemming from social Onslaughts or social Combined Attacks.


Stronger Than Flesh</b>
 <b>Cost: --; Mins: Integrity 5, Essence 3; Type: Permanent
 Keywords: None
 Prerequisite Charms:   Golden Bull's Crown

The Exalt's mind will not tolerate assaults or imprecations. Add +1 to his MDV in any circumstance. If all MDVs are rendered inapplicable (ie, 0 and unmodifiable) by circumstances, attacks, charms, etc., this Charm will still take effect, though the resultant MDV 1 may not be further modified unless special Charms, capabilities, artifacts, etc. allow.


Sanctified Consciousness</b>
 <b>Cost: 6m, 1wp; Mins: Integrity 5, Essence 4; Type: Simple
 Keywords: Combo-Basic, Obvious, Social
 Duration: Indefinite
 Prerequisite Charms: Golden Bull’s Crown

Although no physical signs of this charm are present, on the mental plane, it is a most unsubtle, if rather efficacious, defense. The Exalt infuses her mind with essence, creating a powerful barrier against external intrusion. Until she chooses to release the committed Essence, the Exalt’s Essence is added to the difficulty of all attempts to use unnatural mental influence on her. In contested rolls, the Exalt’s Essence is added in autosuccesses to her roll. If the attacking unnatural mental influence would ordinarily succeed perfectly, the Solar gains the opportunity to engage the attacker in UF:IO rolls, but does not gain automatic successes to these rolls.


Implacable Boar's Determination</b>
 <b>Cost: --; Mins: Integrity 5, Essence 4; Type: Permanent
 Keywords: None
 Prerequisite Charms: Stubborn Boar Defense

The determination of an Exalt driven by a Great Curse can render them utterly immune to the imprecations of the deceptive. Sadly, it can also render them insensate to the wisdom of their peers-- or the pleas of their loved ones. This Charm enhances its prerequisite. The character now treats natural as well as unnatural mental influence as unacceptable orders while in Limit Break.


Ascetic Debating Prowess</b>
 <b>Cost: --; Mins: Integrity 4, Essence 2; Type: Permanent
 Keywords: None
 Prerequisite Charms: Temptation-Resisting Stance

Corruption and temptation may beguile, seeking to evade the pure refusal of the righteous. In council or in the public sphere, their arguments shall fall, the hidden weakness of their rotten core exposed and scorned by those who feel it not. When activating Temptation-Resisting Stance, the character may spend 1 willpower to have half of its benefits (round up) applied to Parry MDVs.


Unbreakable Hero Prana</b>
 <b>Cost: --; Mins: Integrity 6, Essence 6; Type: Permanent
 Keywords: None
 Prerequisite Charms: Transcendent Hero's Meditation

From the moment that they take the Second Breath, Solars are mandated to uncover and spread the truth, with no hesitations or hindrances. Ultimately, some Lawgivers must face dire costs to do so, but the call must be answered, even at the ultimate price. This Charm modifies its prerequisite. In addition to replacing the mote cost, the Solar may also spend an aggravated health level to replace the willpower cost. Either effect or both may be used; a Solar who has no motes or willpower to spend may thus substitute two unsoakable aggravated health levels to activate Transcendent Hero's Meditation. At Essence 7, the character may spend another aggravated health level to activate Transcendent Hero's Meditation as a non-charm action. Sadly, not even the mightiest of Exalts, even past that power, may destroy the Great Curse in such a manner.


Willful Soul Reinforcement</b>
 <b>Cost: --; Mins: Integrity 4, Essence 4; Type: Permanent
 Keywords: None
 Prerequisite Charms: Spirit-Maintaining Maneuver

The all-consuming drive of a Solar Exalt can be terrifying, casting aside the hindrances of mortal concerns-- and sometimes, even mortal decency. This charm modifies its prerequisite. The Solar may utilize Spirit-Maintaining Maneuver to reduce the cost of resisting natural mental influence, though this does not count against the limit for one scene before no further mental influence in that direction can function.
