Insubstantiality

Reed In The Wind

• Cost: 2i per 1 Evasion
• Type: Reflexive
• Keywords: Perilous

After an attack has been rolled, the Solar may add up to their Essence to their Evasion by spending Initiative. This can exceed the limit of what can be added by Charms.

Vaporous Division

• Cost: 4m/die
• Type: Reflexive
• Mins: Dodge 5, Essence 2
• Prereqs: Reed In The Wind

After being hit by a decisive attack, the Solar may remove damage dice from it at the cost of 4 motes per die, to a maximum of the Solar's Evasion. If the attack is reduced to 0 dice this way, it is considered to have missed.

Living Bonds Unburdened

• Cost: 4m, 4i, 1wp
• Type: Reflexive
• Duration: One round
• Mins: Dodge 5, Essence 3
• Prereqs: Vaporous Division

• Type: Reflexive
• Keywords: Once/scene

• Duration: One scene
• Mins: Dodge 5, Essence 3

Used when the Solar successfully dodges an attack, they become aware of the Charms used to augment it and may choose one (other than an Excellency). That Charm has no effect when used against the Solar and, if an attack is augmented by that Charm alone, it is automatically dodged.
