Ride
This tree uses the Crunchy Merit Methodology and Threefold Strategic Methodology rules.
Cavalier
Grizzled Cataphract’s Way
- Type: Permanent
- Mins: Ride 3, Essence 1
If the Solar is mounted while acting as commander, they always qualify for a strategy roll for land battles (and sea or air battles, if they are on a flying mount) - even if the rest of their side is not mounted.
Rousing Backlash Assault
- Cost: 10m, 1wp
- Type: Simple
- Mins: Ride 5, Essence 1
- Prereqs: Grizzled Cataphract’s Way
The Solar makes an Intelligence+Ride roll; if it accrues more successes than the opposing commander’s strategy roll, the opposing commander’s stratagem is removed. This Charm can only be used if the Solar is acting as commander of their side.
Seasoned Beast-Rider's Approach
- Type: Permanent
- Mins: Ride 5, Essence 2
- Prereqs: Grizzled Cataphract's Way
When the Solar implements a successful Fusillade stratagem, the Solar’s side also has their starting Initiative increased by the number of extra successes (above the opponent's roll) on the Solar's strategy roll.
Rapid Cavalry Approach
- Type: Permanent
- Mins: Ride 4, Essence 2
- Prereqs: Grizzled Cataphract’s Way
When the Solar implements a successful Hidden Approach stratagem, the Solar’s side has their starting Initiative increased by the number of extra successes (above the opponent's roll) on the Solar's strategy roll.
Phantom Rider’s Approach
- Type: Permanent
- Mins: Ride 5, Essence 3
- Prereqs: Rapid Cavalry Approach
When the Solar implements a successful Ambush stratagem, the Solar’s side has their starting Initiative increased by the number of extra successes (above the opponent's roll) on the Solar's strategy roll.
Untouchable Horseman’s Attitude
- Type: Permanent
- Mins: Ride 4, Essence 2

Hero Rides Away
- Type: Permanent
- Mins: Ride 5, Essence 3
- Prereqs: Untouchable Horseman’s Attitude
When the Solar implements a successful Not Today stratagem, the Solar’s side increases the difficulty of any attempt to track them by the number of extra successes (above the opponent's roll) on the Solar's strategy roll.
Unity
Master Horseman’s Techniques
- Cost: 2m/success
- Type: Supplemental
- Mins: Ride 1, Essence 1
The Solar may convert up to (Essence) of the bonus dice from their Mount merit into automatic successes.
Phantom Steed
- Type: Permanent
- Mins: Ride 2, Essence 1
- Prereqs: Master Horseman’s Techniques
The Solar may use any of their Stealth Charms while mounted, applying them equally to their mount without penalty. The Solar uses Ride in the place of Stealth for any Stealth rolls while mounted, but does not normally get the benefit of their Mount dice while doing so.
Flashing Thunderbolt Steed
- Type: Permanent
- Mins: Ride 2, Essence 1
- Prereqs: Master Horseman’s Techniques

Untouchable Loyal Steed
- Type: Permanent
- Mins: Ride 3, Essence 2
- Prereqs: Master Horseman’s Techniques
If the Solar is ever separated from their mount, their mount has an instinctive knowledge of the Solar’s location and will do everything in their power to return to them. Any attempt by others to dissuade, tame, or ride the mount is treated as unacceptable influence.
Glorious Solar Steed
- Cost: 10m, 1wp
- Type: Simple
- Duration: Indefinite
- Mins: Ride 5, Essence 3
- Prereqs: Untouchable Loyal Steed
The Solar summons a supernatural mount from their anima, providing a non-flying Mount merit equal to their Essence. If they are riding a mundane mount, they are upgraded to this standard if they are not already above it.
