Charm Writeups

Charm ideas and Commentary

If we're lining up Virtues with Abilities, Archery should use Valor. --MUrielw

Charm idea: the Infernal selects a target (whom she must have met at least once, and know the basic biographical details of), a bow of superb craftsmanship, an arrow of Malfean iron, and a secluded place in the same zone of existence (Creation, Malfeas, Yu Shan, the Underworld) as the target. She shoots herself in the heart, doing damage as normal, and meditates for seven days on what it means to die and what the effect of killing the target will be on the rest of the world. Some resistance rolls should be made during this period of some sort. At the end of the meditation the Exalt plucks the arrow from her chest, notches the arrow, and fires. If he is still on the same plane of existence the target is hit at point-blank range. No Charms can be added to the firing of this arrow at this point, but Charms can be added to the original firing at herself (with a Combo for multiple ones), and if they are, they will carry over to the shot at the target. --MUrielw

Pretty cool. :) --Kukla

Houyi, reached a great castle. The guard at the top called down, "No one may cross these walls, by order of the Mother of the West!"

Houyi replied, "I am Houyi, the great archer. Once of Heaven, now of earth!" But the guard was unmoved.

"It would be unrighteous to slay a guard performing his duty," Houyi mused to himself. He then called up, "I will pay you a silver arrow, worth three times your annual wage, if you will open these gates!"

The guard, greedy as men ever were, opened the gates. And so Houyi fired the silver arrow into the guard's eye, killing him at once. "A righteous guardian cannot be bribed." Houyi explained to the corpse as he continued his journey.
