Salamander's Diet
Cost: 1 mote, 1 willpower Duration: Special Type: Simple Min Presence: 3 Min Essence: 3 Prereqs: Lovely Burning Gaze
Refining his inner connection to Fire a Dragon-Blooded can distil the physical manifestion of that Element into its essential Essence and use it to fuel his own powers. This Charm can be maintained for as long as the Dragon-Blooded is in contact with a burning fire at least as large as that produced by a torch or lantern. During each turn of contact the character regains his Essence in motes as he converts the energy of the Fire. This Charm provides no protection from the damaging effects of such contact and if the character is not otherwise protected, it takes a willpower roll to maintain contact each turn. The difficulty of the roll starts at 1 and grows by 1 each turn until it reaches 5. The animas of Fire-aspected Terrestrials, undead ghost-fire or pyre flame and similar un-natural fires are not suitable for this Charm.

Comments
Any reason (besides game balance) why you're not allowing Fire-aspect anima as a source of flame for these charms? I mean yes, 3 Fire-aspect DBs all using this style side by side would be horrendously broken, but I could see this as being a side benefit of the charm. Of course you couldn't use your OWN anima for fueling them, but I see the anima banner as "Essence Burnoff", the side-effects of wielding godly power. ~ Brigand, just curious to see the inner workings of the mind of Telgar
Because the anima banner itself is not fire, it is simply an anima banner. It produces fire, but it itself is not fire and the Charm only works on natural fire. It also makes the Charm more situational, you have to find a real fire. However a Fire-aspect can just ignite stuff with their anima, that's perfectly fine. - Telgar
