Due to a near-total reorganization of the canon medical Charms, I have opted to re-write this Tree entirely.  Although some names are continued, I'm treating them as entirely new charms, and thus all 2E conversions will be found below, even simple adjustments, to better fit into the new trees.  As usual, simple adjustments will not be counted as new Charms.  However, anyone using this tree, regardless of whether or not a Charm is a simple adjustment or a ground-up re-work, should probably consider completely rearranging their Charms from scratch; in many cases, effects that used to take single Charms now take Combos.

Like Ox-Body Technique, this is not actually a Charm, but instead a development of the Exalt’s natural abilities.  In this case, Wolverine Vitality Technique enhances the character’s healing speed, making such healing even faster than normal.  The character always heals at (1 + (his rating in Medicine)) times the normal rate.  This is cumulative with Body-Mending Meditaiton.  Wolverine Vitality technique does not aid with the recovery of aggravated wounds.  This Charm is based on Neph’s suggestion on the wiki; I just fleshed it out.

Even without the aid of Charms, the character is now a superlative healer.  The most obscure treatments and difficult procedures are easy for her to perform, even internal surgery!  The character subtracts two from the difficulty of any Medicine roll (minimum difficulty 1).  This is based on Neph’s suggestion on the wiki; I just fleshed it out.

 +
In a flash, the Character pumps Essence through his own body, rapidly healing wounds, re-knitting bones, sealing cuts, and so on.  This powerful treatment happens in a second, and relies on the raw power of Essence to make it work- the body’s natural healing mechanisms are fueled and driven by the essence.  There is no need for food or rest; the character feeds his body with Essence, which allows it to heal swiftly.  With each use of this Charm, the character instantly heals a number of health levels equal to his Essence score.  This Charm only functions on the Solar himself, and does not speed the healing of aggravated tissue, nor does it allow the regeneration of amputated or destroyed tissue.

Even the harshest of wounds are not beyond the reach of a healer blessed by Heaven.  This charm fills the target’s body with Essence not too dissimilar from the refined extract of Celestial Wine known as Frozen Heart of Yu-Shan, an extremely potent drink that even most gods reserve for medical emergencies.  As a result, the Solar may heal her target of a number of Health Levels equal to her Essence score instantly, with just a touch.  This will cure aggravated, but cannot be used on the Solar herself.  This will regenerate lost limbs and destroyed tissue.  Count each such regeneration as a equal to a number of health levels as proscribed under Bodily Regeneration Prana.

Now the character’s regenerative capabilities have reached a superlative level.  No wound can slow his endless recovery to health, and the only limitation on how fast he heals is how much Essence he can pump through his body and how strong his Will is.  The character instantly regenerates a number of health levels equal to his Essence score, including aggravated damage!  This will regenerate lost limbs and destroyed tissue.  Count each such regeneration as a equal to a number of health levels as proscribed under Bodily Regeneration Prana.

A healer with this knowledge is truly a blessing of heaven.  Her healing powers are miraculous, and no injury or illness is beyond her touch.  If she chooses to reveal the extent of her powers, her fame will be widespread- perhaps as much or more dangerously so than someone who knows Youth-Restoring Benison.  With just a touch, the character heals her target completely.  All lethal and bashing damage is healed, all diseases are cured and poisons purged from the target’s body.  This Charm does not affect aggravated damage or lost limbs, and cannot be used on the Exalt herself.

In a brilliant display of Essence, the Solar completely revitalizes his entire body.  Wounds seal as though they had never been, diseases, toxins, and other damaging foreign elements are removed in bursts of golden light.  All lethal and bashing damage is healed, all diseases are cured, and poisons are completely purged from the Exalt’s body.  This Charm does not affect aggravated damage or lost limbs.

  <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b>  Glorious Solar Recovery, Youth-Restoring Benison
 +
This whispered Charm has not been heard of in millennia.  It was rare enough in the First Age after the fall of the Primordials; rare was the Solar in the latter days of the Deliberative willing to expend so much power on even allies when slower, easier methods could get them back on their feet and healing themselves.  Still, the master of this Charm would become a resource of great power in this fallen age.  Her touch alone can restore complete and total health to even the most ravaged body.  Illness, poison, and any damaging foreign elements are simply removed; all injuries, even lost limbs and the worst aggravated damage, unhealable by any other means will simply be restored.  Insanity will be cured; virtues lost to the Fair Folk or other sources renewed.  Any possible damage the target has taken will be healed.  If the Solar chooses to expend 3 experience points, the target is restored to youthful maturity-- the equivalent of age 18 in humans.  (This has no effect on Exalted and similar magical creatures, who are, after all, roughly the same until they die).
 +
 
 +
----<b><i>Transcendent Phoenix Heart</b></i>
 +
  <b>Cost:</b>  30 motes, 3 Willpower
 +
  <b>Duration:</b>  Instant

  <b>Type:</b>  Simple
 +
  <b>Minimum Medicine:</b>  9
 +
  <b>Minimum Essence:</b>  9
 +
  <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b>  Phoenix's Tears
 +
Transcendent Phoenix Heart is the ultimate personal healing charm.  Only by wearing down his essence and will through prolonged battle, or by killing him instantly could a master of this Charm be slain.  With a simple act of will, all damage, aggravated or otherwise, lost limbs, virtue damage, illness, poison, damaging foreign elements, insanity-- any and all negative states will be instantly and totally cured.  Virtually no force in existence can prevent this healing; certainly none from a source with less Essence than the Exalt.  This has no effect on the Exalt's age.

----<b><i>Beneficent Gift of Health</b></i>
 +
  <b>Cost:</b>  5 motes
 +
  <b>Duration:</b>  One Day per dot of Medicine
 +
  <b>Type:</b>  Simple
 +
  <b>Minimum Medicine:</b>  2
 +
  <b>Minimum Essence:</b>  2
 +
  <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b>  Flawless Diagnosis Technique, Touch of Blissful Release
 +
Instead of intensive care requiring the Solar's attention, a Solar with this Charm can lend some of her Essence to aid a mortal with just a touch.  By infusing the mortal with an overflow of essence, the mortal will gain some of the vitality and health of an Exalt.  Mortal characters with this Charm active resist infection, heal, resist bleeding, resist poison and disease just like an Exalt for one day per dot of Medicine the Exalt has.  They still cannot soak lethal damage with their stamina.  This Charm has no effect on the Exalted and other beings that already heal at those levels.
 +
 
 +
----<b><i>Vital Rays of the Sun Meditation</b></i>
 +
  <b>Cost:</b>  15 motes, 1 Willpower
 +
  <b>Duration:</b>  One Day
 +
  <b>Type:</b>  Simple
 +
  <b>Minimum Medicine:</b>  4
 +
  <b>Minimum Essence:</b>  3
 +
  <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b>  Contagion-Curing Touch, Touch of Blissful Release
 +
By opening her inner Solar soul to the outside world and sending out beneficent, vital rays of life-encouraging Essence, the Exalt can cure numerous people of diseases at once.  Before invoking this Charm the character must mark out an area no greater than her Medicine times five yards in radius.  Once she is done, the Exalt rests in the middle of the circle and meditates on the healing force of the sun.  Anyone who spends a day within the circle, needing no more than a simple bed (warmth, feeding, and drinking will be taken care of by the Essence radiating out from the Solar) will have a chance to be cured. 
 +
 
 +
At the end of the day the Exalted's player makes a single Intelligence + Medicine roll, with successes judged as per Contagion-Curing Touch.  Like that Charm, regardless of whether or not the disease is cured, while the Charm is in effect, all diseases will halt their ordinary progression.  This Charm will affect powerful diseases such as the Great Contagion, and up to Third Circle Diseases.  The Exalt is not helpless during this time, but any action other than meditation that takes more than ten turns at a time will break the Charm's effects, requiring it to be restarted from the beginning.
 +
 
 +
----<b><i>Blessings of Solar Health</b></i>
 +
  <b>Cost:</b>  15 motes, 1 Willpower

 +
  <b>Minimum Essence:</b>  3
 +
  <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b> Vital Rays of the Sun Meditation, Wound-Mending Care Technique
 +
 
 +
Further developing the Solar's aura of healing abilities, this Charm allows the Exalt to knit the wounds and heal the damage of others around him.  Before invoking this Charm the character must mark out an area no greater than his Medicine times five yards in radius.  Once he is done, the Exalt rests in the middle of the circle and meditates on the healing force of the sun.  For every day a character spends within the circle, getting at least bed rest, that character will be healed of a number of health levels equal to the Solar's permanent Essence plus a number of additional levels equal to the number of successes his player achieves on an Intelligence + Medicine roll. 
 +
 
 +
This Charm does not speed the healing of aggravated damage, nor does it allow regeneration of amputated or destroyed tissue.  The Exalt is not helpless during this time, but any action other than meditation that takes more than ten turns at a time will break the Charm's effects, requiring it to be restarted from the beginning.

 +
 
 +
The Solar executing this Charm falls suddenly into a trance, and rays of healing power pour out of her like the blessings of the Unconquered Sun.  Any being within the Solar's Medicine x 5 yards who consents will be instantly be placed into a trance as well.  During the next hour, they will be in a state of accelerated healing and have no awareness of the outside world.  For each hour spent in the trance, the subjects (not the Solar) heal a number of health levels equal to the Exalted's Essence.  As with Bodily Mending Meditation, this Charm can heal aggravated damage and replace lost limbs and other, similar maimings.  The times required to heal these injuries are as for Bodily Regeneration Prana.  None of the characters involved regains Essence during the healing period, assuming that any of the targets have any Essence to regain in the first place.

----<b><i>Therapeutic Healing Hand</b></i>

  <b>Minimum Medicine:</b>  4
 +
  <b>Minimum Essence:</b>  3
 +
  <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b>  Contagion-Curing Touch, Anointment of Miraculous Health
 +
This Charm will send powerful bursts of curative essence into the subject, curing serious and normally incurable diseases such as the Great Contagion or Essence Diseases.  A single touch is all that is required.  The Exalted's player makes an Intelligence + Medicine roll.  Normal diseases are cured with a single success, while more serious plagues may require as many as five successes.  This effect happens instantly.
 +
 
 +
----<b><i>Triumphant Plague-Slaying Hero</b></i>
 +
  <b>Cost:</b>  20 motes, 2 Willpower
 +
  <b>Duration:</b> One Scene
 +
  <b>Type:</b>  Simple
 +
  <b>Minimum Medicine:</b>  5
 +
  <b>Minimum Essence:</b>  4
 +
  <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b> Therapeutic Healing Hand, Vital Rays of the Sun Meditation
 +
The generous spirit of a medicinal Solar is often severely taxed by the plagues that run across Creation from time to time.  Although careful practice can permit Exalts to generate healing fields via meditation or touch, such Charms require time that victims may not have and Essence beyond even the vast capacities of a Solar.  However, few things are beyond the reach of a Solar, and powerful Exalts with the Triumphant Plague-Slaying Hero Charm can be ultimate blessings for cities and nations under the threat of pestilence.
 +
 
 +
After expending the Essence, for the rest of the scene, the player of the Exalt triggering this charm rolls her Intelligence + Medicine.  The number of successes garnered indicates the maximum potency of the disease (as per Contagion-Curing touch) that the character can cure.  A field of holy solar energy coruscates out of the Exalted, healing all sick (up to the disease potency limits of the successes rolled) within a radius equal to her permanent Essence x2 yards.  The Solar will generate this field for the rest of the scene regardless of what she does, so she is perfectly capable of defending herself against enraged plague-gods, desperate mobs, fanatic Immaculates, and so forth.

Even without the aid of Charms, the character is now a superlative healer.  The most obscure treatments and difficult procedures are easy for her to perform, even internal surgery!  The character subtracts two from the external penalties of any Medicine roll.  This is based on Neph’s suggestion on the wiki; I just fleshed it out.

Solars are the greatest healers on the face of Creation, masters of medicine who know the secrets of the body unlike any other.  Internal surgery poses no difficulty for those who choose to pursue such an intimate knowledge of the body.  When this Charm is developed, the Solar gains an fundamental understanding of both the wholeness of the body and the parts, as well as an instinct for actually performing medicine inside the body of a patient.  As a result, internal surgery becomes relatively routine, the base difficulty reduced to the normal 1, and requiring a period of only one hour per point of difficulty to perform.  Damage to the patient and the requirements for diagnosis are unchanged.

  <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b> Transcendent Medicine Prowess, Instant Treatment Methodology
 +
The Solar's transcendent, healing spirit reaches out through her hands as she works on a patient, granting them vast recuperative powers.  The holy essence of the Solar Exaltation can work miracles when charged with power and will, invigorating patients to recover far swifter than usually possible.  This Charm supplements a dramatic medical action to treat, monitor, and tend to the patient.  Such tending will take one hour if not modified by a Charm or Stunt.  At the end of the dramatic medical action, the patient will regain as many health levels in as he would for a full day's rest.  This Charm can only be used on an individual patient a number of times per day equal to the <b>patient's</b> permanent Essence.  At Essence 5, this Charm's effects now grant a week's worth of healing in a single hour.  This Charm does not affect the recovery of Aggravated health levels. 
 +
 
 +
If this Charm is used in a Combo with Wound-Mending Care Technique, the target will gain the full effects of that Charm, including the extra health levels for having spent the full "day" at rest.  This Charm does not change the restriction on Wound-Mending Care Technique to be used only once per day, though repeated, non-Combo uses of Heavenly Healer Touch may still be used on the patient.  The Essence 5 effect level will only treat the first day's healing as modified by Wound-Mending Care Technique, with the remaining six days healing as per normal; this also does not change the restrictions on Wound-Mending Care Technique

The Solar infuses his patient with a small portion the majestic and unquenchable spirit of the Unconquered Sun.  Rays of light extend from the Solar into his patient, granting speedy recovery and transcendent health.  This Charm supplements a normal medicine action concerned with damage-- stopping bleeding, prevention of infection, repair of crippling damage, etc.  In addition to the basic effects of the action, the target will recover lethal health levels as though they were all -0 health levels.  Mortals will recover as per Exalted times.  At Essence 6, the patient will recover lethal health levels as though they were bashing, again, with Mortals recovering as per Exalted times.  Any new wounds must be healed as normal.  Ordinarily, this Charm is relatively useless when Comboed with Wound-Mending Care Technique, though it may be a part of a larger Combo with effects that go beyond the scope of that Charm.

  <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b> Glorious Solar Recovery
 +
The legendary power of a Solar healer is such that, at great levels of power, the Lawgiver may arrange for Essence itself to do the work of a doctor, healing the patient without regards to time or any other limitations whatsoever.  The Solar must first "instruct" the body-chakras and essence of the patient to perform the healing on its own, and supercharge both with an infusion of the Solar's own essence.  This Charm supplements a single medical action of any type.  Once the first stage of healing to be done by the target is completed, all stages are done.  Such healing might include, regular health level healing (usually a result of halting bleeding or repairing Crippling damage; this requires at least one health level to be healed), psychological care (the healing will take place as soon as the target makes a significant step in their recovery, not merely when calmed down from hysteria or after the first session), or complex, multiple operation surgery.

Although lesser doctors may need to concentrate on their charges for anything other than brief moments, the Chosen of the Sun are not so hampered.  Though magically-boosted speed and focus is usually the province of combative Charms, medically-inclined Twilights can develop the ability to add just enough speed, just enough capacity for multitasking to enable them to operate simultaneously on many patients at once.  So long as all patients remain within one tick's worth of Move from the Solar, he may use a single dramatic action and a single Medicine roll on up to his Intelligence + 1 in patients at a single time.  This Charm will not reduce healing times on its own.

 +
By symbolically treating a few members of large groups, a Solar may exert her patron's beneficient, uplifting holiness to bless the entire mass.  When using Vital Rays of the Sun Prana, the character may spend an additional 6 motes, 1 willpower so that each "person" who would be treated counts as a Magnitude of patients healed.  A Solar may not heal more than her permanent Essence in Magnitude.  When this Charm is used in a Combo, instead of replicating Combo costs for each individual target, multiply the cost of every Charm to be repeated across the Combo by the Magnitude of the people to be healed.

 +
The Solar develops the ability to work on every problem his patient has at once, being no longer limited to dealing with one problem at a time.  The Lawgiver may approach his patients holistically, treating body, mind, and possibly even spirit, all at the same time.  The Solar may combine a number of different medical rolls equal to his permanent Essence, all of which deal with a different problem (rather than successive rolls) into a single medical roll.  The resulting dramatic action takes as long for -all- procedures as the longest procedure involved; as a result, diagnosis must typically be performed first.  Any Charms are only applied to the single roll, and need not be paid for again for each problem.  This Charm does not allow the combining of different Simple Charms in a Combo.

:We don't like the circle-drawing sort of thing, so we may well have them just as an unsettable radius... drawing circles sounds too sorcerous.

:: Hey, whatever works for you. :)  The only reason that I haven't made scene-longs is that they smack, to me, of regeneration, which is more of a Lunar or Wood-blood thing.  Of course, a high-enough Essence Solar can just take the 'Nyah!  I'm HEALED!' charms here and be done with it. :) --[[IsawaBrian]]

Revision as of 02:38, 13 May 2006

Due to a near-total reorganization of the canon medical Charms, I have opted to re-write this Tree entirely. Although some names are continued, I'm treating them as entirely new charms, and thus all 2E conversions will be found below, even simple adjustments, to better fit into the new trees. As usual, simple adjustments will not be counted as new Charms. However, anyone using this tree, regardless of whether or not a Charm is a simple adjustment or a ground-up re-work, should probably consider completely rearranging their Charms from scratch; in many cases, effects that used to take single Charms now take Combos.


Wolverine Vitality Technique</b>
 <b>Cost:  None
 Duration:  Permanent
 Type:  Special
 Minimum Medicine:  2
 Minimum Endurance:  2
 Minimum Essence:  2
 Prerequisite Charms: Body-Mending Meditation, Ox-Body Technique

Like Ox-Body Technique, this is not actually a Charm, but instead a development of the Exalt’s natural abilities. In this case, Wolverine Vitality Technique enhances the character’s healing speed, making such healing even faster than normal. The character always heals at (1 + (his rating in Medicine)) times the normal rate. This is cumulative with Body-Mending Meditaiton. Wolverine Vitality technique does not aid with the recovery of aggravated wounds. This Charm is based on Neph’s suggestion on the wiki; I just fleshed it out.


Transcendent Medicine Prowess</b>
 <b>Cost:  None
 Duration:  Permanent
 Type:  Special
 Minimum Medicine:  5
 Minimum Essence:  3
 Prerequisite Charms:  Addiction-Cleansing Touch

Even without the aid of Charms, the character is now a superlative healer. The most obscure treatments and difficult procedures are easy for her to perform, even internal surgery! The character subtracts two from the difficulty of any Medicine roll (minimum difficulty 1). This is based on Neph’s suggestion on the wiki; I just fleshed it out.


Second Wind</b>
 <b>Cost:  15 motes, 1 Willpower
 Duration:  Instant
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  5
 Minimum Essence:  3
 Prerequisite Charms: Bodily Regeneration Prana, Anointment of Miraculous Health

In a flash, the Character pumps Essence through his own body, rapidly healing wounds, re-knitting bones, sealing cuts, and so on. This powerful treatment happens in a second, and relies on the raw power of Essence to make it work- the body’s natural healing mechanisms are fueled and driven by the essence. There is no need for food or rest; the character feeds his body with Essence, which allows it to heal swiftly. With each use of this Charm, the character instantly heals a number of health levels equal to his Essence score. This Charm only functions on the Solar himself, and does not speed the healing of aggravated tissue, nor does it allow the regeneration of amputated or destroyed tissue.


Heavenly Healer Touch</b>
 <b>Cost:  15 motes, 1 Willpower
 Duration:  Instant
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  5
 Minimum Essence:  4
 Prerequisite Charms:  Second Wind, Healing Trance Meditation

Even the harshest of wounds are not beyond the reach of a healer blessed by Heaven. This charm fills the target’s body with Essence not too dissimilar from the refined extract of Celestial Wine known as Frozen Heart of Yu-Shan, an extremely potent drink that even most gods reserve for medical emergencies. As a result, the Solar may heal her target of a number of Health Levels equal to her Essence score instantly, with just a touch. This will cure aggravated, but cannot be used on the Solar herself. This will regenerate lost limbs and destroyed tissue. Count each such regeneration as a equal to a number of health levels as proscribed under Bodily Regeneration Prana.


Unyielding Spirit</b>
 <b>Cost:  15 motes, 2 Willpower
 Duration:  Instant
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  5
 Minimum Essence:  5
 Prerequisite Charms:  Heavenly Healer Touch

Now the character’s regenerative capabilities have reached a superlative level. No wound can slow his endless recovery to health, and the only limitation on how fast he heals is how much Essence he can pump through his body and how strong his Will is. The character instantly regenerates a number of health levels equal to his Essence score, including aggravated damage! This will regenerate lost limbs and destroyed tissue. Count each such regeneration as a equal to a number of health levels as proscribed under Bodily Regeneration Prana.


Total Care Discipline</b>
 <b>Cost:  15 motes, 2 Willpower
 Duration:  Instant
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  6
 Minimum Essence:  6
 Prerequisite Charms:  Unyielding Spirit

A healer with this knowledge is truly a blessing of heaven. Her healing powers are miraculous, and no injury or illness is beyond her touch. If she chooses to reveal the extent of her powers, her fame will be widespread- perhaps as much or more dangerously so than someone who knows Youth-Restoring Benison. With just a touch, the character heals her target completely. All lethal and bashing damage is healed, all diseases are cured and poisons purged from the target’s body. This Charm does not affect aggravated damage or lost limbs, and cannot be used on the Exalt herself.


Glorious Solar Recovery</b>
 <b>Cost:  20 motes, 2 Willpower
 Duration:  Instant
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  7
 Minimum Essence:  7
 Prerequisite Charms:  Total Care Discipline

In a brilliant display of Essence, the Solar completely revitalizes his entire body. Wounds seal as though they had never been, diseases, toxins, and other damaging foreign elements are removed in bursts of golden light. All lethal and bashing damage is healed, all diseases are cured, and poisons are completely purged from the Exalt’s body. This Charm does not affect aggravated damage or lost limbs.


Phoenix's Tears</b>
 <b>Cost:  20 motes, 3 Willpower
 Duration:  Instant
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  8
 Minimum Essence:  8
 Prerequisite Charms:  Glorious Solar Recovery, Youth-Restoring Benison

This whispered Charm has not been heard of in millennia. It was rare enough in the First Age after the fall of the Primordials; rare was the Solar in the latter days of the Deliberative willing to expend so much power on even allies when slower, easier methods could get them back on their feet and healing themselves. Still, the master of this Charm would become a resource of great power in this fallen age. Her touch alone can restore complete and total health to even the most ravaged body. Illness, poison, and any damaging foreign elements are simply removed; all injuries, even lost limbs and the worst aggravated damage, unhealable by any other means will simply be restored. Insanity will be cured; virtues lost to the Fair Folk or other sources renewed. Any possible damage the target has taken will be healed. If the Solar chooses to expend 3 experience points, the target is restored to youthful maturity-- the equivalent of age 18 in humans. (This has no effect on Exalted and similar magical creatures, who are, after all, roughly the same until they die).


Transcendent Phoenix Heart</b>
 <b>Cost:  30 motes, 3 Willpower
 Duration:  Instant
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  9
 Minimum Essence:  9
 Prerequisite Charms:  Phoenix's Tears

Transcendent Phoenix Heart is the ultimate personal healing charm. Only by wearing down his essence and will through prolonged battle, or by killing him instantly could a master of this Charm be slain. With a simple act of will, all damage, aggravated or otherwise, lost limbs, virtue damage, illness, poison, damaging foreign elements, insanity-- any and all negative states will be instantly and totally cured. Virtually no force in existence can prevent this healing; certainly none from a source with less Essence than the Exalt. This has no effect on the Exalt's age.


Beneficent Gift of Health</b>
 <b>Cost:  5 motes
 Duration:  One Day per dot of Medicine
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  2
 Minimum Essence:  2
 Prerequisite Charms:  Flawless Diagnosis Technique, Touch of Blissful Release

Instead of intensive care requiring the Solar's attention, a Solar with this Charm can lend some of her Essence to aid a mortal with just a touch. By infusing the mortal with an overflow of essence, the mortal will gain some of the vitality and health of an Exalt. Mortal characters with this Charm active resist infection, heal, resist bleeding, resist poison and disease just like an Exalt for one day per dot of Medicine the Exalt has. They still cannot soak lethal damage with their stamina. This Charm has no effect on the Exalted and other beings that already heal at those levels.


Vital Rays of the Sun Meditation</b>
 <b>Cost:  15 motes, 1 Willpower
 Duration:  One Day
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  4
 Minimum Essence:  3
 Prerequisite Charms:  Contagion-Curing Touch, Touch of Blissful Release

By opening her inner Solar soul to the outside world and sending out beneficent, vital rays of life-encouraging Essence, the Exalt can cure numerous people of diseases at once. Before invoking this Charm the character must mark out an area no greater than her Medicine times five yards in radius. Once she is done, the Exalt rests in the middle of the circle and meditates on the healing force of the sun. Anyone who spends a day within the circle, needing no more than a simple bed (warmth, feeding, and drinking will be taken care of by the Essence radiating out from the Solar) will have a chance to be cured.

At the end of the day the Exalted's player makes a single Intelligence + Medicine roll, with successes judged as per Contagion-Curing Touch. Like that Charm, regardless of whether or not the disease is cured, while the Charm is in effect, all diseases will halt their ordinary progression. This Charm will affect powerful diseases such as the Great Contagion, and up to Third Circle Diseases. The Exalt is not helpless during this time, but any action other than meditation that takes more than ten turns at a time will break the Charm's effects, requiring it to be restarted from the beginning.


Blessings of Solar Health</b>
 <b>Cost:  15 motes, 1 Willpower
 Duration:  One Day
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  4
 Minimum Essence:  3
 Prerequisite Charms: Vital Rays of the Sun Meditation, Wound-Mending Care Technique

Further developing the Solar's aura of healing abilities, this Charm allows the Exalt to knit the wounds and heal the damage of others around him. Before invoking this Charm the character must mark out an area no greater than his Medicine times five yards in radius. Once he is done, the Exalt rests in the middle of the circle and meditates on the healing force of the sun. For every day a character spends within the circle, getting at least bed rest, that character will be healed of a number of health levels equal to the Solar's permanent Essence plus a number of additional levels equal to the number of successes his player achieves on an Intelligence + Medicine roll.

This Charm does not speed the healing of aggravated damage, nor does it allow regeneration of amputated or destroyed tissue. The Exalt is not helpless during this time, but any action other than meditation that takes more than ten turns at a time will break the Charm's effects, requiring it to be restarted from the beginning.


Holy Totality Radiation</b>
 <b>Cost:  15 motes, 2 Willpower
 Duration:  One Hour
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  5
 Minimum Essence:  4
 Prerequisite Charms: Blessings of Solar Health, Healing Trance Meditation

The Solar executing this Charm falls suddenly into a trance, and rays of healing power pour out of her like the blessings of the Unconquered Sun. Any being within the Solar's Medicine x 5 yards who consents will be instantly be placed into a trance as well. During the next hour, they will be in a state of accelerated healing and have no awareness of the outside world. For each hour spent in the trance, the subjects (not the Solar) heal a number of health levels equal to the Exalted's Essence. As with Bodily Mending Meditation, this Charm can heal aggravated damage and replace lost limbs and other, similar maimings. The times required to heal these injuries are as for Bodily Regeneration Prana. None of the characters involved regains Essence during the healing period, assuming that any of the targets have any Essence to regain in the first place.


Therapeutic Healing Hand</b>
 <b>Cost:  15 motes
 Duration:  Instant
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  4
 Minimum Essence:  3
 Prerequisite Charms:  Contagion-Curing Touch, Anointment of Miraculous Health

This Charm will send powerful bursts of curative essence into the subject, curing serious and normally incurable diseases such as the Great Contagion or Essence Diseases. A single touch is all that is required. The Exalted's player makes an Intelligence + Medicine roll. Normal diseases are cured with a single success, while more serious plagues may require as many as five successes. This effect happens instantly.


Triumphant Plague-Slaying Hero</b>
 <b>Cost:  20 motes, 2 Willpower
 Duration: One Scene
 Type:  Simple
 Minimum Medicine:  5
 Minimum Essence:  4
 Prerequisite Charms: Therapeutic Healing Hand, Vital Rays of the Sun Meditation

The generous spirit of a medicinal Solar is often severely taxed by the plagues that run across Creation from time to time. Although careful practice can permit Exalts to generate healing fields via meditation or touch, such Charms require time that victims may not have and Essence beyond even the vast capacities of a Solar. However, few things are beyond the reach of a Solar, and powerful Exalts with the Triumphant Plague-Slaying Hero Charm can be ultimate blessings for cities and nations under the threat of pestilence.

After expending the Essence, for the rest of the scene, the player of the Exalt triggering this charm rolls her Intelligence + Medicine. The number of successes garnered indicates the maximum potency of the disease (as per Contagion-Curing touch) that the character can cure. A field of holy solar energy coruscates out of the Exalted, healing all sick (up to the disease potency limits of the successes rolled) within a radius equal to her permanent Essence x2 yards. The Solar will generate this field for the rest of the scene regardless of what she does, so she is perfectly capable of defending herself against enraged plague-gods, desperate mobs, fanatic Immaculates, and so forth.


Second Edition Charms
Transcendent Medicine Prowess</b>
 <b>Cost: --; Mins: Medicine 5, Essence 3, Type: Permanent
 Keywords: None
 Prerequisite Charms: All 3 Medicine Excellencies, Infinite Medicine Mastery, Essence Medicine Flow

Even without the aid of Charms, the character is now a superlative healer. The most obscure treatments and difficult procedures are easy for her to perform, even internal surgery! The character subtracts two from the external penalties of any Medicine roll. This is based on Neph’s suggestion on the wiki; I just fleshed it out.


Celestial Surgeon Deftness</b>
 <b>Cost: --; Mins: Medicine 5, Essence 4, Type: Permanent
 Keywords: None
 Prerequisite Charms: Transcendent Medicine Prowess

Solars are the greatest healers on the face of Creation, masters of medicine who know the secrets of the body unlike any other. Internal surgery poses no difficulty for those who choose to pursue such an intimate knowledge of the body. When this Charm is developed, the Solar gains an fundamental understanding of both the wholeness of the body and the parts, as well as an instinct for actually performing medicine inside the body of a patient. As a result, internal surgery becomes relatively routine, the base difficulty reduced to the normal 1, and requiring a period of only one hour per point of difficulty to perform. Damage to the patient and the requirements for diagnosis are unchanged.


Heavenly Healer Touch</b>
 <b>Cost: 8m, 1 wp; Mins: Medicine 5, Essence 3, Type: Supplemental
 Keywords: Combo-Ok, Obvious, Touch
 Duration: One Hour
 Prerequisite Charms: Transcendent Medicine Prowess, Instant Treatment Methodology

The Solar's transcendent, healing spirit reaches out through her hands as she works on a patient, granting them vast recuperative powers. The holy essence of the Solar Exaltation can work miracles when charged with power and will, invigorating patients to recover far swifter than usually possible. This Charm supplements a dramatic medical action to treat, monitor, and tend to the patient. Such tending will take one hour if not modified by a Charm or Stunt. At the end of the dramatic medical action, the patient will regain as many health levels in as he would for a full day's rest. This Charm can only be used on an individual patient a number of times per day equal to the patient's permanent Essence. At Essence 5, this Charm's effects now grant a week's worth of healing in a single hour. This Charm does not affect the recovery of Aggravated health levels.

If this Charm is used in a Combo with Wound-Mending Care Technique, the target will gain the full effects of that Charm, including the extra health levels for having spent the full "day" at rest. This Charm does not change the restriction on Wound-Mending Care Technique to be used only once per day, though repeated, non-Combo uses of Heavenly Healer Touch may still be used on the patient. The Essence 5 effect level will only treat the first day's healing as modified by Wound-Mending Care Technique, with the remaining six days healing as per normal; this also does not change the restrictions on Wound-Mending Care Technique


Glorious Solar Recovery</b>
 <b>Cost: 8m, 1 wp; Mins: Medicine 5, Essence 5, Type: Supplemental
 Keywords: Combo-Ok, Obvious, Touch
 Duration: Instant (One Set of Wounds)
 Prerequisite Charms: Heavenly Healer Touch

The Solar infuses his patient with a small portion the majestic and unquenchable spirit of the Unconquered Sun. Rays of light extend from the Solar into his patient, granting speedy recovery and transcendent health. This Charm supplements a normal medicine action concerned with damage-- stopping bleeding, prevention of infection, repair of crippling damage, etc. In addition to the basic effects of the action, the target will recover lethal health levels as though they were all -0 health levels. Mortals will recover as per Exalted times. At Essence 6, the patient will recover lethal health levels as though they were bashing, again, with Mortals recovering as per Exalted times. Any new wounds must be healed as normal. Ordinarily, this Charm is relatively useless when Comboed with Wound-Mending Care Technique, though it may be a part of a larger Combo with effects that go beyond the scope of that Charm.


Tears of the Phoenix</b>
 <b>Cost: 15m, 2 wp; Mins: Medicine 6, Essence 6, Type: Supplemental
 Keywords: Combo-Ok, Obvious, Touch
 Duration: Instant (one healing period)
 Prerequisite Charms: Glorious Solar Recovery

The legendary power of a Solar healer is such that, at great levels of power, the Lawgiver may arrange for Essence itself to do the work of a doctor, healing the patient without regards to time or any other limitations whatsoever. The Solar must first "instruct" the body-chakras and essence of the patient to perform the healing on its own, and supercharge both with an infusion of the Solar's own essence. This Charm supplements a single medical action of any type. Once the first stage of healing to be done by the target is completed, all stages are done. Such healing might include, regular health level healing (usually a result of halting bleeding or repairing Crippling damage; this requires at least one health level to be healed), psychological care (the healing will take place as soon as the target makes a significant step in their recovery, not merely when calmed down from hysteria or after the first session), or complex, multiple operation surgery.


Vital Rays of the Sun Prana</b>
 <b>Cost: 6m, 1 wp; Mins: Medicine 5, Essence 4, Type: Extra Action
 Keywords: Combo-Ok, Obvious
 Duration: One dramatic medical action
 Prerequisite Charms: Transcendent Medicine Prowess

Although lesser doctors may need to concentrate on their charges for anything other than brief moments, the Chosen of the Sun are not so hampered. Though magically-boosted speed and focus is usually the province of combative Charms, medically-inclined Twilights can develop the ability to add just enough speed, just enough capacity for multitasking to enable them to operate simultaneously on many patients at once. So long as all patients remain within one tick's worth of Move from the Solar, he may use a single dramatic action and a single Medicine roll on up to his Intelligence + 1 in patients at a single time. This Charm will not reduce healing times on its own.


Holy Totality Radiation</b>
 <b>Cost: --; Mins: Medicine 5, Essence 5, Type: Permanent
 Keywords: None
 Prerequisite Charms: Vital Rays of the Sun Prana

By symbolically treating a few members of large groups, a Solar may exert her patron's beneficient, uplifting holiness to bless the entire mass. When using Vital Rays of the Sun Prana, the character may spend an additional 6 motes, 1 willpower so that each "person" who would be treated counts as a Magnitude of patients healed. A Solar may not heal more than her permanent Essence in Magnitude. When this Charm is used in a Combo, instead of replicating Combo costs for each individual target, multiply the cost of every Charm to be repeated across the Combo by the Magnitude of the people to be healed.


Total Care Discipline</b>
 <b>Cost: 5m; Mins: Medicine 5, Essence 2, Type: Supplemental
 Keywords: Combo-Ok, Obvious
 Duration: One dramatic medical action
 Prerequisite Charms: Wholeness-Restoring Meditation, Ailment-Rectifying Method, Body-Purifying Admonitions

The Solar develops the ability to work on every problem his patient has at once, being no longer limited to dealing with one problem at a time. The Lawgiver may approach his patients holistically, treating body, mind, and possibly even spirit, all at the same time. The Solar may combine a number of different medical rolls equal to his permanent Essence, all of which deal with a different problem (rather than successive rolls) into a single medical roll. The resulting dramatic action takes as long for -all- procedures as the longest procedure involved; as a result, diagnosis must typically be performed first. Any Charms are only applied to the single roll, and need not be paid for again for each problem. This Charm does not allow the combining of different Simple Charms in a Combo.


Beneficient Gift of Health</b>
 <b>Cost: 5m; Mins: Medicine 3, Essence 2, Type: Simple
 Keywords: Combo-Ok
 Duration: One day per dot of Medicine
 Prerequisite Charms: Touch of Blissful Release, Flawless Diagnosis Technique

Instead of intensive care requiring the Solar's attention, a Solar with this Charm can lend some of her Essence to aid a mortal with just a touch. By infusing the mortal with an overflow of essence, the mortal will gain some of the vitality and health of an Exalt. Mortal characters with this Charm active resist infection, heal, resist bleeding, resist poison and disease just like an Exalt for one day per dot of Medicine the Exalt has. They still cannot soak lethal damage with their stamina. This Charm has no effect on the Exalted and other beings that already heal at those levels.


Comments

Paging FluffySquirrel... you wanted some nice multiple-heal medicine charms... Here are some, and very nice they are too. I know they're not a scene-long, but this is cool too, and you should look at them... IsawaBrian, you make nice charms, I shall be examining the rest of them later today, good work and such, thanks, I/we will be using some methinks!
-- Darloth

Thanks! I hope your friend uses them. Give me a note sometime later about how they work in play if he does? --IsawaBrian
We don't like the circle-drawing sort of thing, so we may well have them just as an unsettable radius... drawing circles sounds too sorcerous. He's also considering a few scenelong versions of current charms, but they'll be more expensive than area, so I think he might get these first.
-- Darloth
Hey, whatever works for you. :) The only reason that I haven't made scene-longs is that they smack, to me, of regeneration, which is more of a Lunar or Wood-blood thing. Of course, a high-enough Essence Solar can just take the 'Nyah! I'm HEALED!' charms here and be done with it. :) --IsawaBrian
Actually, he's planning a scene-long once-per-person Contagion Curing Touch, I think. Basically, he wants to be able to walk through a city touching people left right and centre, and It's a Miracle! They're Healed!, etc.
-- Darloth
You mean something like... this? (New charm added) --IsawaBrian
