Supernatural Fighting Styles
Learning Supernatural Fighting Styles has some differences, for one all Exalted can learn a Supernatural Style
of appropriate level, they are not tied to an Exalt type. Another difference is they are learned as a merit
that uses essence to enhance combat, some of these maneuvers count as charm use, some don't.
The styles are represented as a Fighting Style merit that requires mote expenditures to use maneuvers.
These follow the normal rules for fighting styles, having prerequisites, and the need to buy a lower level
merit before a higher level one. They also usually have essence costs and may have other drawbacks, like
no armor or limited to a specific weapon. Many can be bought as a brawl OR weapon based styles, this means
they can be one or the other, not both, although you could train in both to increase your options.
Terrestrial Fighting Styles
Supernatural Fighting Style: Golden Janissary Style
Prerequisites: Presence 3, Brawl 2 or Weaponry 2, Occult 2
Effect: Your character has trained to fight the enemies of Creation, like undead. This style can be learned
with weapons of spears and dire lances instead, in which case replace brawl with weaponry.
This style may be used with light armor, or no armor. Fire Aspect's may learn this style without training.
Cleansing Flame Strike (*): You may spend one mote to make an attack deal lethal damage to creatures
of darkness.
Doom Inquisition (**): You may make a bare-handed attack or touch maneuver to determine if foe is
considered a creature of Darkness.
Light on Dark Shield (***): Spend one mote to reduce incoming attack die pool by two dice, but not below
one die. Used against Creatures of Darkness it reduces attack by five dice and if attack reaches zero, creature
must roll chance die but does not get a success even on a ten.
Paralyzing Combustion Imbuement (****): You may spend 1 mote and 1 willpower to make an attack that
deals stunning damage(-1 penalty per health level that lasts until healed). Can be used as a touch-attack to
cause one penalty that lasts for the scene but caused no damage.
Lone Spark Lights the Conflagration (*****): Spend 1 mote to make an attack that does +6 damage to
Creatures of Darkness (+3 to others) and lights them on fire. This fire does one damage per turn and is

Celestial Fighting Styles
Snake Style
Supernatural Fighting Style: Snake Style

with weapons of hook sword and seven section staff instead, in which case replace brawl with weaponry.
This style may be used with armor. Solar's may learn this style without training.
Weapon Note: Hook Swords are 3(L) weapons and give +1 bonus to disarm attempts. Seven section Staves are 2(B)
but add one to defense.
Striking Cobra Technique (*): Spend 1 mote, add Brawl or Weaponry score to Initiative for rest of scene.
Serpentine Evasion (**): Spend 1 mote to add two to defense versus a single attack.
Essence Fang and Scales (***) : Spend 1 motes, for rest of turn your opponents who can see you suffer a
die penalty equal to your essence and your attacks do lethal damage.
Uncoiling Serpent Prana (****) : When successfully attacked you may spend 1 mote to counterattack with
ability + the number of health levels of damage received, out to a distance of up to essence times two yards.
This counts as a counterattack, designed to respond to attackers who can move out of range, it lowers defense
for the rest of turn and cannot be used on counter attacks or be counter attacked.
Essence Venom Strike (*****): Spend 2 motes and a willpower to make an attack deal aggravated damage.
= Tiger Style

used with armor. Lunar's may learn this style without training.
Weapon Note: Tiger Claws deal 2(L) Damage have a durability of 3 and cost of 2. Use Brawl to attack.
Crouching Tiger Meditation (*): Your opponents do not gain a close combat bonus against you while you
are prone. However they still must apply the penalty to ranged attacks, this is a non-essence effect.
Raging Tiger Pounce (**): You may spend one mote to make an attack, if successful you will knock
you and your target prone, unless target has balance aiding magic. Note: You do gain the +2 close combat bonus
for targeting a prone person, even when prone yourself, you are immune, thanks to Crouching Tiger Meditation.
Leap From Cloaking Shadows (***): You may spend 1 mote when attempting a surprise attack. This gives
your target a penalty of your essence to their wits + composure roll to notice you. If you succeed in attacking
with surprise, your opponent loses not just defense but any armor or speed(celerity) based bonus as well.
Spine Shattering Bite(****): Spend 2 motes to make an attack, if successful you may add four
levels of lethal damage to attack. This attack also functions on objects if desired.
Drawback: You must lose your defense for the turn, if you had to use your defense already you cannot use maneuver.
Angry Predator Frenzy Style (*****): Spend 2 motes and a willpower point and sacrifice your defense,
in exchange make two full dice brawl attacks, any attack that succeeds against you spawns an immediate counter
attack with your full dice pool. All these attacks deal lethal damage, even without a weapon.
