This is a Charm that was created by the Solar Exalted for use by their Terrestrial servants and agents. By the time of the Usurpation every Terrestrial Exalted new this Charm as a matter of course, but as the Shogunate era progressed and the loss of First Age materials became common, this Charm fell into disuse. Currently, only savants in the Realm and Lookshy have knoweldge of this Charm, with Lookshy using it to greater effect repairing the ancient buildings of Inner Lookshy.
This Charm operates by making the materials used in First Age construciton to flow like water, repairing any damage. Every single application of this Charm fixes two Health levels of damage per Essence of the Terrestrial. No Repair roles or Resource expediture is required, the healing of damage is automatic. This Charm only works on First Age materials because they were designed to flow upon being targeted by this, it was specifically engineered into the materials. Currently, only First Age ground vehicles, hover vehicles, skyships and stuctures can be targeted by this Charm.
Commentary
- Power-wise, this is a mid-tier essence 2-3ish Celestial charm, and not an entry level DB essence 1 charm. As written, it completely obliviates the need for any repair mechanic, ever, and allows for full repair of arbitrarily powerful and complex Artifacts in seconds, with no significant costs, drawbacks or restrictions... except that the Artifact in question must be awesome. It would make a highly appropriate and very strong mid-to-end tree Lunar charm, if you replace "First Age materials" with "moonsilver". It's a very neat effect, but a DB will need ess 6 or higher to get this level of power. Sorry if sound rude; in a hurry and don't have time to edit for good phrasing ~Capric
