The Three Transcendant Understandings
The Terrestrial Insights are based around enhancing the basic archetypes of the Terrestrial Exalted, using their limitations as strengths to the best effect.
Terrestrial Insights cost 15 XP. Terrestrials may only purchase Insights for Caste and Favoured Abilities.
Transcendant Element's Manifestation</b>
<b>Cost: None Mins: (Ability) 7, Essence 7, Type: Special Keywords: None Duration: Permanent Prerequisites: One Charm in this Ability of each Essence rating, from 1 to 6.
Power comes to those who wish for it, destructive and majestic. Whenever the character spends Personal Essence to activate a Charm of this Ability, she may spend it as though it were Peripheral Essence. If she does, reduce the cost of the Charm by 2 motes, to a minimum of 1 mote.
Transcendant Warrior's Advance</b>
<b>Cost: None Mins: (Ability) 7, Essence 7, Type: Special Keywords: None Duration: Permanent Prerequisites: One Charm in this Ability of each Essence rating, from 1 to 6.
Terrestrials are meant to burn brightly and quickly, and then fade away. This Insight permanently enhances every Charm of this Ability that allows the character to spend a variable amount of Essence, up to a maximum (such as Excellencies, Five-Dragon Wrath, or Elemental Bolt). The character may spend 1 Willpower to increase that maximum by her Essence. She must still spend all motes involved.
Transcendant Hero's Nature</b>
<b>Cost: None Mins: (Ability) 8, Essence 8, Type: Special Keywords: None Duration: Permanent Prerequisites: Transcendant Element's Manifestation, Transcendant Warrior's Advance
For the very greatest of the Terrestrial Exalted, success breeds further success. This Insight permanently enhances the Ability in question. All Specialties of that Ability count as automatic successes when rolled, and if the character has at least one appropriate Specialty for Ability-based Charm caps, she may act as though she had one more Specialty dot than she does.
