Death-Songs

Those Charms assume that Withering Dirge can be used with Charisma as well as Manipulation.

Singer-Dies-Singing Technique
Cost: None
Duration: Permanent
Type: Special
Minimum Presence: 4
Minimum Essence: 3
Prerequisite Charms: Lamenting Ghost Technique
The Deathknight with this Charm needs never to stop singing, even when their vocal cords wither and snap, even when blood slides down from their lips, they will never stop singing. With this enhancement the Abyssal can sing for hours upon hours without ever becoming fatigued and can spend a limitless ammount of motes in Lamenting Ghost Technique - in fact, even if she does not possess enough motes to power it she can just force the words out, taking 1 level of unsoakable lethal damage to create 2 motes with which to power Lamenting Ghost Technique.

Mote-Shattering Song
Cost: 6 motes, 1 willpower
Duration: Instant
Type: Supplemental
Minimum Presence: 4
Minimum Essence: 4
Prerequisite Charms: Withering Dirge
Rising her voice to a shattering crescendo the Deathknight reaches a loud, hissing pitch that shatters windows everywhere within (the Deathknight's Essence x5) yards. Directed against a single opponent this Charm rattles bones and splits cells, shredding their bodies with music to the point where just a single strike is necessary to twist the entire form out of shape! When used in conjunction with an attack Mote-Shattering deals Aggravated Damage and doubles its damage against beings of metal and glass. This Charm can explicitly be Comboed with Charms of other Abilities.

Beautiful Death

Blood Dance Technique
Cost: 6 motes
Duration: Instant
Type: Reflexive
Minimum Presence: 4
Minimum Essence: 3
Prerequisite Charms: Lamenting Ghost Technique
Deathknights were built to kill the world. That truth about their being is encoded into their every action, turning mere words into violence, and sheer violence into words - a Deathknight's violence is eloquent like the dead Primordials that empower them: the slaughter of an army a dance of sheer beauty, the torture of a king a speech against the power of living men, the fight against a Terrestrial a call to arms for the dead. Activated at the end of a turn of violence Blood Dance Technique allows the Abyssal to contextualize it into a Performance - receiving a Performance action with which to affect any onlookers. This Performance action receives one automatic success per Health Level of damage the Abyssal has dealt in the turn this Charm is activated - it is through killing and destruction that the Abyssal Exalted make their point.
