By combining their supernatural athletic prowess and danger awareness, a Solar Exalted may perform unimaginable feats of flexibility and balance in order to dodge incoming attacks. For the remainder of the scene, the character gains a number of dice equal to her Athletics score (plus any relevant specializations or bonuses, such as Gymnastics or Acrobatics) for all dodge actions, as the character twists and contorts out of the way of the incoming attack without losing her balance or breaking her stride. Additionally, the character may reflexively dodge any attack she can perceive with a dice pool equal to her Athletics score.

By combining their supernatural athletic prowess and danger awareness, a Solar Exalted may perform unimaginable feats of flexibility and balance in order to dodge incoming attacks. For the remainder of the scene, the character adds his Athletics score to his Dodge pool before halving, thus making his Dodge DV equal to (Dexterity + Dodge + (Dodge Specialties) + Athletics + Essence) / 2. Additionally, penalties cannot reduce his Dodge DV to below his Athletics ability. This bonus counts as augmentation of the character's Dodge pool by a charm, and thereore limits the total bonus that Excellency Charms or other dice-adders may provide. Inapplicability or other affects that reduce a Dodge pool explicitly to 0 do not count as penalties and are not affected by this Charm.
