It looks pretty much like the Soaring Pinions DBT Gift. Not a bad charm for someone that wants an alternative to the DBT gift (if their totem is non-bird-like), but at Cha 4 and Ess3, with those prereqs and 4 committed essence... I guess it just seems like it's asking a bit much for what little benefit it gives you. I can't see how you'd make it more powerful, though, so maybe you could just tone down the requirements. (Then again, if you let the character attack with gusts of wind caused by flapping his wings real hard... that might make it worthwhile. Ranged bashing attacks. ) -- Miedvied
- In power combat the benifit is greater. Yes, it is almost exactly like the Soaring Pinions gift. Many gifts can be duplicated by charms and to be fair, its the logical extension from that charm. With ways to make it stronger bashing gusts, a to hit penalty(due to your hummingbird like ability to move sideways or in any direction), or faster might be ways to improve it. Thoughts on such improvements? BogMod
You forgot Insectile wings. -Fifth
Bog, your combo ruling on the IA Charm is messed up. If you want to allow non-extra action Charms, you have to allow combos. Just state it can't be comboed with EA or IA Charms. Because otherwise that Charm ALSO allows a willpower-less combo. Which is just weird. I'm not sure I like this, an Essence 3, 5 mote Reflexive IA...but I guess its alright as it only allows for two actions. I'd feel better if it did NOT allow Charms. Then it'd feel just perfect. - Telgar
