Steward
Celestial Lion Spirit
Cost: 5 motes, 1 willpower
Duration: One Task
Type: Reflexive
Minimum Charisma: 2
Minimum Essence: 2
Prerequisite Charms: None
A Lunar's devotion to his Lord is matched only by the Celestial Lion's devotion to Heaven. Activating this Charm, the character receives his lord's command in the same manner as one hears that something must be done for the sun to rise the next day. His world hinges on it. All vanish from his mind but this truth... and with such focus the Lunar becomes able to push past his limits to make his Lord's will come true.
When the character activates this Charm the Lunar must have received a task from a superior which must be possible, relatively simple, and the Lunar must have a clear idea on how to begin it. While this Charm is active, he adds one success to all rolls related to the chosen objective, increases his dice-adding limits to his Attribute+Essence and ignores all fatigue penalties.
Until the object it attained, the character must make a successful Willpower roll in order to take actions not related to the received command for a Scene. All such actions receive a penalty of -2 dice. Ending the Charm before concluding the task requires a Willpower roll with a difficulty equal to the Lunar's own Conviction, which can only be attempted once per scene. It cannot be reactived unless one receives the command from another once again. If the task becomes impossible the Lunar will lapse into a morose state wherein he suffers a penalty of -2 dice to all actions and cannot regain Willpower with Conviction rolls or Nature fulfillment. This morose state will last for a number of days equal to the Lunar's Conviction.
