Merciful Hero Stance

Cost: -
Duration: n/a
Type: Permanent
Keywords: Obvious
Minimums: MA 5 Essence 3
Prerequisites: Knockout Blow

Dolorous, the blows of a Solar certainly are, but their might contains room for gentleness. This Charm
permanently enhances a solar so they may pull their blows for no penalty. They may also keep the
damage of their attacks from wrapping around and upgrading, letting them only knockout, instead of kill
another. Curiously the damage from the Solar continues to add up beyond the target's health levels.
This means a target may take days or weeks to fully recover from the pounding they received even with
out life threatening damage. This also allows the penalties from Ox-Stunning Blow to continue to stack.
The effects of this charm are optional, the effects are not obviously supernatural, but it is obvious that
the Solar is restraining themselves as they fight. Anyone watching can tell the Solar is trying not to
hurt the other too badly.

Clinch Charms

Dragon Coil Technique

Cost: 4m
Duration: until next action
Type: reflexive
Keywords: Combo-Ok
Minimums: MA 3 Essence 2
Prerequisites: Fists of Iron

The grip of the Lawgiver's does not fail. This charm adds (Essence) successes to any attempt to achieve or
escape a clinch. It also boosts the clinches damage by (Essence) and lets the Solar make it lethal damage if
they want. At Essence 3+ the Solar may purchase this charm again to gain the ability to spend an extra wp
to make the Clinch attempt perfect. The Clinch will always succeed even if its with a zero threshold over
opponent. This bonuses of the first version of this charm still apply to perfect version. This charm may
only be stopped by perfect defenses before clinch is made but only another perfect clincher, or a perfect
clinch breaker may escape. A perfect clinch breaker beats this, but another perfect clinch merely cancels
the perfection of both. This charm may explicitly be used when held in a clinch by another.

Debris Entanglement Method

Cost: 3m
Duration: scene
Type: Supplemental
Keywords: Combo-Ok
Minimums: MA 4 Essence 2
Prerequisites: Dragon Coil Technique, Solar Hero Form

The Solar need not rely on their presence to deal with their foes. This charm supplements an attempt to
clinch a target using an improvised weapon, such as net, rope, collapsed wall, or a handful of nails.
If the clinch succeeds the Solar may walk away leaving the target clinched in the weapon. Despite not
being around, as long as the motes remain committed, the Solar can still reflexively roll against the
target, they can even use charms like Excellencies and Dragon Coil Technique to help clinch the target.
The Solar may only hold or damage the target with their clinch, not throw them. The solar uses the
improvised weapon in question to modify their rolls. If the Target escapes the Charm ends immediately.
If the Solar drops commitment, the target must still free themselves from the entanglement.

Surpassing Efficacy Hold

Cost: 3m
Duration: one scene
Type: Supplemental
Keywords: Combo-Ok, Obvious
Minimums: MA 4 Essence 2
Prerequisites: Dragon Coil Technique, Solar Hero Form

The Solar need not exert his full force to hold someone within his grasp. This charm supplements an
attempt to clinch. Instead of having to use their whole body the Solar clinches with the most minimal
of effort, such as a thumb and forefinger, or teeth. They may apply their minimal effort to the most
minimal of places, an ear, a tail, a pinky finger. Being able to hold targets this way may let the
Solar hold multiple targets depending on how they are held. The Solar does not, of necessity lose their
Defense value while clinching in this manner, although they may not give ground unless they can drag the
held victim with them. This charm give Clinching a rate equal to Solar's Essence, however all the clinches must have this charm
applied to them, and to hold all the targets requires a flurry of clinches, inflicting multiple action
penalties and DV penalties. Each turn this the Solar must re-flurry all the clinches, although they may
choose a different order, and they take a penalty to DV equal to number of clinches, but they do not lose
their DV just because they are in a clinch. If the Solar does not the Strength + Athletics score to carry
all their target's they have the -2 unable to give ground penalty to dodge DV. If target breaks free then
this charm is broken for that target and must be re-activated to try again. This charm need not be re-activated
just to hold targets though.

Self-Judgement Clinch

Cost: -
Duration: n/a
Type: permanent
Keywords: Combo-Ok
Minimums: MA 4 Essence 3
Prerequisites: Debris Entanglement Method, Surpassing Efficacy Hold

The Lawgiver forces their foes to pass judgment on themselves. This charm acts as an upgrade to Debris
Entanglement Method. By spending two more motes the Solar may use a target as an improvised weapon with
an accuracy of -3 and a damage of 4B, against themselves. The target ends up hold themselves in clinch,
tangled into a know by the Solar's wrestling skills. It should be noted that if the Solar manages to
clinch two different targets, he could use the charm on both to make them clinch each other. In this case
both targets can be held until they manage to simultaneously win the clinching contest with the Solar, after
which they are still left clinching each other without Solar influence.

Brilliant Cavitation Burst

Cost: 5m 1wp 1lhl
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Keywords: Combo-Ok, Obvious
Minimums: MA 5 Essence 4
Prerequisites: Glorious Shockwave Technique, Dragon Coil Technique x 2

Refining their Shockwave the Solar draws their foe into an implacable grip, even as an inexorable force
tries to push the foe away, this deadly paradox resolves itself by tearing the victim apart. This charm
may only be activated as an alternative to maintaining a clinch that has already been made by other means
the attempt to maintain the clinch is considered perfect. The Solar automatically does a number of levels
of damage to the target equal to their Strength + Martial Arts + Essence, ignoring all armor-based soak.
This damage must be lethal or worse, nothing can render it into bashing without changing the nature of
this charm. The Solar may hold this charm on continuing actions by spending another 5 motes each. Any Target
killed by this action explodes in a visual light show of Golden essence, but this has no mechanical effect.
