Celerity Talents
Celerity Talents vary slightly from Celestial to Celestial. Lunars and Chimerae have a wilder Level 2 Talent and a weaker Level 3 Celerity Talent. These must be taken for the relevant Ability.
Level 1: Make a roll at your full pool without using your dice action, up to a number of extra actions equal to your Essence in a turn. You may not split your die pool with this Talent.
- This costs 2 motes per action for Passive actions, and is Reflexive: Instant
- This costs 3 motes per action for Active actions, and is Extra Action: Instant.
Level 2: (Solars, Abyssals, and Sidereals) For 5 motes, you may, for the remainder of the Turn, make any sort of one-action Passive roll with this Ability whenever it is appropriately called for, without actually taking an action. Reflexive, Instant.
Level 2: (Lunars and Chimerae) Subtract up to your Essence from the penalty for splitting your dice action during the turn. This can in no way leave you with a bonus.
- This costs 1 mote per penalty subtracted. Reflexive, Instant.
Level 3: (Solars, Abyssals, and Sidereals) For 5 motes and one Willpower, you may, for the remainder of the Scene, make any sort of one-action Passive roll with this Ability whenever it is appropriately called for, without actually taking an action. Simple, One Scene.
Level 3: (Lunars and Chimerae) For 5 motes and one Willpower, you may, once per Turn for the remainder of the Scene, make any sort of one-action Passive roll with this Ability whenever it is appropriately called for, without actually taking an action. Simple, One Scene.
Level 4: For 7 motes and one Willpower, you may, once per Turn for the remainder of the Scene, make one die-action Active roll with this Ability whenever you are able, without using your die action. Simple, One Scene.
