Shapelessness: A Rethinking of God-Monster Style

This is mainly an exercise for myself to imagine (and create) the 'truer' version of God-Monster Style. I'm probably massively off, but God-Monster strikes me as the path towards forsaking shape in order to achieve true and proper harmony with the Wyld and their true self---as unshaped terrors. I could well be dead wrong, but I'm not gonna let something like complete point-missing stop me!
New God-Monster Body Gifts
- Wound-Defying Mentality
- Prerequisite: Chain-Defying Art
- Toughening their inner beings, the raksha subtracts one success from all shaping damage rolls.
- Thousand-Layered Armor-Self
- Prerequisite: Wound-Defying Mentality
- Growing even more inured to the shaping of others (and injury in general), the raksha subtracts two successes from shaping damage rolls, and one success from normal damage rolls. This gift supercedes its prerequisite.
- Enigma of Existance
- Turning their God-Monster Body away from Creation's taint as it comes into being, the raksha becomes a thing both real and alien. While assuming their God-Monster Body, the raksha is under the effect of Mad God Mien.
- Flowing Weave of Madness
- With but a thought, the weave of the Wyld obeys the raksha's will. All shaping action dicepools have their dice-splitting penalty reduced by one.
- Primordial Forming Methodology
- Prerequisite: Flowing Weave of Madness
- Approaching the world-shaping might of the Primordials themselves, the raksha grows all the more adept. All shaping dicepools have their splitting penalty reduced by two. This gift supercedes its prerequisite.
Altered Charms
Spirit-Flaying Meditation
Cost: Variable Duration: Instant Type: Simple Minimum Ring: 4 Minimum Essence: 2 Prerequisites: Wyld Communion
Operates in the same manner as the base Charm in Exalted: the Fair Folk page 176, but allows for a second option for Mutations. For Mutations built from purchased Charms, the raksha may opt to spend 2 gossamer, 3 Willpower and 3 Experience Points to remove the mutation while keeping the Charm intact. Charms that have only a mutation cost cannot be converted into having a gossamer cost with this method, and must be removed in the normal fashion.
Future Charm Concepts
- Harmonious Primordial Spirit and Kin-Swallowing Grace
- Reclaiming the parent Charm, the altered God-Monster Style pushes it a step further, allowing the 'master' raksha to completely obliterate the personality of the 'adopted' heroic commoner, making them a complete and total extension of their will and linking their shell's existance to their Heart and implanted Grace.
- Planting Wyld Seeds
- The 'corrected' form of Nature-Eliminating Knife, allows the Grace to be obliterated while binding the Grace's might and Virtue link to the raksha's Heart. May perform the same gift-giving effect as N-EK.
- Blood of Clay
- A permanent shifting of how the raksha's being handles spiritual damage, gushing forth raw creative power instead of inflicting a spiritual effect such as ravishment.
- Hatchling's Ascension
- Perhaps the final charm on the path to shapelessness; detonates the Heart Grace, but gives the newly-unshaped raksha the might to hold their being together nonetheless, approaching the undying might of the Primordials themselves. Would require extensive XP reqs, as this would be the gateway to Heart 5.
