Braydz/DBCharms2
From Exalted - Unofficial Wiki
Many of these revisions etc. are based on the Q&A on the White Wolf Exalted wiki, the page for which is here:
There are also some ideas based on 'Laundreu's' house-ruled and home-brewed Terrestrial Charms. Credit where credit's due, after all.
Contents
Excellencies
- Terrestrial [Ability] Reinforcement: This Charm has special timing rules: It is a Reflexive Charm that requires a Spd 3, DV -2 Miscellaneous action to perform.
Air
Linguistics
- Speech Without Words: This Charm requires Wind-Carried Words Technique instead of Voices on the Wind.
- With One Mind: This Charm costs 4m/target, 1wp. It requires Essence 3 and Speech Without Words in addition to its existing prerequisites. The user pays the mote cost of this Charm for each person affected including themself, and may target a number of allies (that is, people other than themself) up to their Linguistics. People under the effects of this Charm may communicate instantly without speech and share sensory impressions up to a range of (20x user's Essence) yards. This sense-sharing is not disorienting or confusing in any way. When within range and acting in concert, actions taken by those affected by this Charm receive a bonus number of dice equal to the user's Essence. Attempts to coordinate the attacks of targets of this Charm within range of each-other gain one automatic success per affected participant. If only affected allies are participating in the coordinated attack coordinating the attack becomes a Speed 3 action. The benefits of this Charm do not count against the maximum number of dice or successes that can be added by Charms.
Lore
- Elemental Bolt Attack: Dex+Thrown is an available attack pool for this Charm.
- Elemental Bolt Attack [Fire]: The extra damage granted by this Charm does not add to the raw damage of the attack. It is rolled as a separate additional damage pool only if the attack inflicts damage normally.
- Elemental Bolt Attack [Water]: The tick-delay inflicted by a successful attack with this Charm is cumulative, however can only be inflicted once per the attacker's Action (i.e. once per flurry).
Occult
- Spirit-Shredding Attack: This Charm requires Essence 4.
Thrown
- Deadly Blades of the Five Dragons [Fire]:</b> See Elemental Bolt Attack [Fire].
- <b>Deadly Blades of the Five Dragons [Water]: See Elemental Bolt Attack [Water].
- Deadly Blades of the Five Dragons [Wood]: This Charm has the 'Poison' and 'Stackable' Keywords, and the penalty inflicted is an 'internal penalty.' Any effect that affects poison or poison-effects works on the effect of this Charm, and the effect of this Charm is cumulative with itself.
- Elemental Armor Technique:</b> This is a Resistance Charm. It requires Resistance 4, and has [Element] Protection Form of the element that the user is Aspected to as a Prerequisite. The user may spend a maximum number of motes equal to their Resistance to power this Charm. The soak granted by this Charm does not possess the usual Terrestrial weakness against Celestial Charms, Sorcery and the Charms of entities with an Essence score greater than the user's.
Earth
Craft
- <b>Flaw-Finding Examination: Either use of this Charm does not work on Artifacts, however it does work on Thaumaturgically enhanced items.
Integrity
- Unsleeping Earth Meditation: This Charm is a Resistance Charm. It requires Resistance 2, and Any Resistance Excellency. The user may use this Charm for a number of sequential days equal to their (Resistance+Essence) without ill effect.
- Untiring Earth Meditation: This Charm is a Resistance Charm. It costs 3m, 1wp to use and requires Resistance 3. The reduction to Wound Penalties equals the user's (Essence/2).
- Unflagging Vengeance Meditation: This Charm requires Integrity 5. It does not have Untiring Earth Meditation as a prerequisite.
- Defense-From-Anathema Method:</b> This Charm does not have Chaos Warding Prana as a Prerequisite. Instead its Prerequisites are Inviolate Dragon Spirit and Unflagging Vengeance Meditation.
Resistance
- <b>Impervious Skin of Stone Meditation: This Charm may be used to enhance the soak of allies with an additional cost of 2m/ally affected to a maximum of the user's Resistance. The maximum soak gained is based on the user of this Charm's Essence, not the beneficiary's Essence. Rather than the soak granted by this Charm failing against an attack enhanced by any Charm, this Charm grants no additional protection against attacks enhanced by Celestial Charms and the Charms of beings with a greater Essence than the user, as well as Sorcery. This Charm has special timing rules: It is a Reflexive Charm that requires a Spd 3, DV -2 Miscellaneous action to perform.
- Unfeeling Earth Meditation: This Charm requires Untiring Earth Meditation instead of Unbreathing Earth Meditation.
War
- Enfolded in the Dragon's Wings: This Charm is Simple. It requires Any War Excellency. In mass combat it may be used on a unit at a cost of 3m/Magnitude, 1wp, to a Maximum magnitude of the user's (Essence-1).
- Blazing Courageous Swordsman Inspiration: This Charm costs 2m/target or 4m/Magnitude, has the 'War' Keyword, and requires Terrestrial War Reinforcement in addition to its listed prerequisites. To clarify this Charm's effect: it grants a temporary -0 HL to all targets for the scene. The Dragon-Blood may use this Charm on themself only if they are affecting others as well, and may not affect more targets than their (Essence+1). When used on a unit in mass combat this Charm costs 4m per Magnitude of the Unit and adds a temporary -0 HL to the unit's damage track. This Charm cannot be used on a unit with a greater Magnitude than the user's (Essence-1).

No more than (user's Melee) allies may be affected by this Charm.
