Charms/SenjiSiderealMartialArts
This is kinda like a holding place whilst I put this tree together, once I've finished I'll create a MartialArts subpage for it (or possibly just once I've got a name for the Style...
The basis of the style is the Sidereal learning how to fit their actions closer with the Loom of Fate. As such it has links with Stealth.
Weapons and Armor
Charms in this Martial Art work well with weapons that are easily concealable, including most weapons shorter than the length of the Exalt's forearm.
This Martial Art cannot be used while wearing armour.
Disciple Charms
Subtle Weft Prana
Cost: 1 point of committed Willpower Duration: Permanent Type: Special Minimum Martial Arts: 5 Minimum Essence: 4 Prerequisite Charms: Walking Outside Fate
When the exalt learns this charm she dedicates a part of her being to minimising their effect on the world around her. Essence she gathers from the world is selected so as to minimise the disruption to the weave of the Loom of Fate. This has the most noticable effect when that essence is then used to aid her to blend in with that weave.
Up to one half of the exalt's peripheral essence may be used as if it was personal essence for the purpose of Stealth Charms and Charms in this tree.
Shadow Strike Technique
Cost: ?? Duration: Scene Type: Reflexive Minimum Martial Arts: 5 Minimum Essence: 4 Prerequisite Charms: Soft Presence Practice
The exalt steps into a shadow, however small, and vanishes from sight. He may make Thrown attacks with concealable weapons, or Archery attacks with a bow no larger than a handbow as if they were Martial Arts attacks. While he is concealed he gets an initiative bonus equal to his permanent essence, however should someone notice him then they gain the advantage of surprise, and strikes before him in combat if they are attacking him. The exalt is considered to be in full shadow while under the effects of this charm, however if there are no available shadows then the charm ends.
