Sun's Cauterizing Fire Strike
Cost: 6m Type: Supplementary Keywords: Obvious, Combo-OK Duration: Instant Minima: Melee 5, Essence 3 Prerequisites: Unconquered Sunburn Technique
The Solar fills their weapon with the blazing fury of the sun, searing an unfillable hole into their target's very soul. This charm supplements a successful Melee attack that inflicts at least one level of Lethal damage. This Charm prevents the activation of any effects, artifacts, Charms, or inherent abilities that speed recovery of health levels lost to the attack until the sun crosses the horizon twice, and penalty negators (e.g. Relentless Lunar Fury or the First Excellency) for (Essence) actions.
Thousand Stabbing Sunbeams Halo
Cost: 6m per sword, 2wp Type: Simple Keywords: Obvious, Holy Duration: One scene Minima: Melee 5, Essence 4 Prerequisites: Glorious Solar Saber, Majestic Radiant Presence
A Solar swordsman is peerless in his might, and need not even raise a hand against his foes to scourge them with holy fire. This Charm functions as Glorious Solar Saber, except that a number of blades may be created equal to the caster's Melee score. These blades have no physical substance, and so may not parry physical attacks. Purely energy-based attacks are valid targets, however, and are parried using the Solar's DV. Each blade may make an independent attack every action at a target within range using the Solar's dice pool, respective of relevant penalties. These attacks, if it was not clear, are fully independent and so only suffer multiple-action penalties if the blades perform a flurry.
