• Type: Reflexive

• Duration: Instant
• Type: Reflexive
• Minimum Resistance: 5

Like the mighty oak, the Bishonen is not easily bent by assault. He gains Hardness equal to his Stamina + Resistance + Moe, and adds his Resistance to all soak.

• Duration: One Scene
• Type: Reflexive
• Minimum Resistance: 3
• Minimum Moe: 2

The Bishonen's skin hardens to the consistency of steel. He can buy additional soak up to his Resistance, at a cost of one mote per point of Lethal and Bashing soak. As a side-effect, this allows him to parry Lethal attacks unarmed, and any unarmed attacks he makes are Lethal.

• Duration: One Scene
• Type: Reflexive
• Minimum Resistance: 4
• Minimum Moe: 2

The Bishonen grows glowing plates on each arm which function as a shield; this raises the base difficulty to hit him by 1 for every two motes, to a limit of his Moe.

Orichalcum Barrier Defense

• Cost: 7 motes, 1 WP
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Reflexive
• Minimum Resistance: 5
• Minimum Moe: 3

The Bishonen turns to Orichalcum at the point of impact with something trying to hit him, and as a result, takes no damage. This can be evoked after you have been hit, before damage is rolled.

Good Health Technique

• Cost: 3 motes
• Duration: One Scene
• Type: Reflexive
• Minimum Resistance: 2
• Minimum Moe: 1
• Prerequisite Charms: Graceful Bishonen Resistance

The Bishonen's health is excellent. He may roll Resistance + Moe, lowering the difficulty of resisting any disease or infection by his successes for the duration. This also lowers the difficulty of the roll to throw off the disease.

• Duration: One Scene
• Type: Reflexive
• Minimum Resistance: 2
• Minimum Moe: 1
• Prerequisite Charms: Graceful Bishonen Resistance

The Bishonen's stomach and veins are iron-clad. He may roll Resistance + Moe, lowering the difficulty of resisting any poison by his successes for the duration. This can be kicked in after being poisoned, before any resistance rolls are made.
