Cytherea
Cytherea, the Mother of Creation has memory of the beginning of all things she is giving and compassionate, very much like a kind parent. Her arms are open and she smiles with forgiveness. She is firmly rooted to the earth but does not fear the sky. She is an expression of peace, motherhood and willing self-sacrifice.
Primal Imposition of (Virtue)
Cost: —; Mins: Essence 2; Type: Permanent
Keywords: Obvious
Duration: Permanent
Prerequisite Charms:
In Cythera’s original design, the concept of virtue was far stronger than what currently exists. An Infernal with this charm may call upon part of the Mother of Creation’s design in order to augment her existing strengths.
Infernal Exalts can purchase this Charm once per dot of Integrity (to a maximum of four times), with each purchase enhancing one Virtue. The Infernal may now use her virtue channels either to add dice, or in the manner listed below.
Compassion: The Infernal gains an unprecedented ability to impose herself between those she cares about and those who would harm them. She may expand a compassion channel to defend anyone in the scene to whom she has a positive intimacy towards- ignoring the intervening space and any obstacles that may block her path.
Conviction: The Infernal can overcome the worst of adversity; she empties her mind of the notions of doubt and failure. She may expend a Conviction channel whenever she suffers the effect of a botch to ignore its effects and re-roll the dice.
Temperance: The Infernal use greater clarity to easily escape all but the most powerful mental influence and see through masterful illusions like the parlour tricks that they are. She may expend a Temperance channel which counts as all the willpower she needs to resist any such effect.
Valour: The Infernal calls upon the bravery that puts the most fanatical of zealots to shame, her blows are enhanced with this glorious anger and her valour is subtracted from her opponent’s soak.
Isidoros
Isidoros, the Black Boar that Twists the Skies is capricious and defiant to those who would bind his actions. He opposes fate and seeks to bring chaos to any order that has outlived its purpose.
Introducing Uncertainty
Cost: —; Mins: Essence 2; Type: Permanent
Keywords: Stackable
Duration: Permanent
Prerequisite Charms: First Isidoros Excellency
The Infernal becomes a powerful vector of change and uncertainty through her mere presence.
Anyone within (essence x 20) yards who attempts to invoke a perfect charm or one that ensures one or more automatic successes – must pay a surcharge of 1 additional mote. This effect is indiscriminate, extending its effect to the Infernal, their allies and their enemies.
This charm may be purchased a number of times equal to the Infernal’s essence. Each subsequent purchase increases the surcharge by 1 mote.
Catastrophic Misfortune
Cost: 5m; Mins: Essence 2; Type: Simple
Keywords:
Duration: One-Scene
Prerequisite Charms:
Despite his distaste for certainty Isidoros is as quick to punish miserable failure as most of his siblings. What better way than to let their own failures destroy them?
For the duration of the scene the Infernal may choose to make any botch that she observes have shocking and often lethal consequences. This charm augments the negative repercussions of a botched roll dealing 1 dice of aggravated damage for every “1” that the victim rolls.
This damage can be avoided with a (wits + awareness) roll with a difficulty equal to the Infernal’s essence or by charms that negate surprise attacks.
Absence of Reason
Cost: 4m; Mins: Essence 2; Type: Reflexive (Step 2)
Keywords: Combo-OK, Obvious
Duration: Instant
Prerequisite Charms:
The Infernal mocks causality as oncoming arrows have their momentum stolen from them and sword blows are inexplicably warded off by an unseen force.
The Infernal may invoke this charm in response to any enemy attack, rolling her (essence + dexterity) against a difficulty equal to the attacker’s Essence. On a success, this Charm cancels out the attack completely and even perfect attacks find themselves going impossibly awry. On a failure the attack is resolved against her defence value as usual.
