Learning this charm allows the Solar to see that in the lethal press of battle, perhaps even moreso than usual, there is an elation at life and survival against one's enemies. This revelation lets them draw power from their continued existance, their hearts leaping with joy every time they prove their skill and vitality by defying death or injury once again. | Learning this charm allows the Solar to see that in the lethal press of battle, perhaps even moreso than usual, there is an elation at life and survival against one's enemies.

These charms all started off as varients on Madwand's dodge tree, which can be found at SolarDodge/Madwand. If you think the charms below aren't powerful enough, check out his instead.

There are those who delight in battle. They know that each missed blow is a tiny moment more that they continue to survive, an opportunity to gain the upper hand against one's enemies. With this charm, a Solar enters a dance of sorts with his enemy, each near miss becoming an opportunity to recognize how close to the edge of disaster the Exalt came... and yet still survives to fight on.
While this charm is active, the Exalt gains his permanent Essence in motes for each attack he successfully dodges that had at least as many successes as his Essence. This Charm does not activate against attacks not truly intended to harm the Solar, or if the solar chooses to automatically dodge an attack with an effect such as Seven Shadow Evasion. The maximum number of motes gained from this charm per turn are equal to the character's Dexterity multiplied by their permanant Essence. Characters cannot claim both the benefit for this charm and activate Laughing at Peril Practice, but any motes gained from Laughing at Peril do not count for the per-turn limit on Dance with Disaster Method.

Some attacks a Solar may face are so terrible in their power that when they miss, the Exalt cannot but praise his luck and the skill the Unconquered Sun has given him. When such an attack is dodged, activating this charm allows the Exalt to contemplate his continued survival for a brief moment. For the Solar, the world seems to freeze, and all that exists is his steady breath and the knowledge that he yet lives. Then, the battle continues.
Anytime the Solar successfully dodges an attack that received no less than the Solar's Essence x 2 successes, he may activate this Charm and gain a temporary point of Willpower, up to his normal maximum. This Charm may not be activated against attacks not truly intended to harm the Solar, or if the solar chooses to automatically dodge an attack with an effect such as Seven Shadow Evasion. It is fully compatible with both of the previous charms
