Onine/Oninedragonbloods
Craft
Rebellious Earth Expelling Method
Cost: 3 motes
Type: Simple
Duration: Instant
Minimum Craft: 3
Minimum Essence: 2
Charging her hand with a spark of essence from the aspect of earth, the dragonblood strikes the ground at her feet causing a jutting finger of stone to erupt from the ground as if exiled by the Earth itself. With this charm she may expell enough stone from the ground before her to carve a cat-sized statue, or enough dirt or sand to create an obscuring cloud which lasts one round. If she desires, she may also continue the charm to expell more stone in a single piece, however expelling large quantities of stone can create cave-ins and sinkholes nearby, so she must take care when using this charm. The charm itself can only be used against stone and dirt, worked metal provides little effect other than warping and has zero effect on any ground that may be made of the Five Magical Materials. Rebellious Earth Expelling Method can be used in combat to make a strike against an opponent (2xCraft)yards away, using her full Dexterity+Craft pool to attack. Such uses of the charm expell effective but afterwards useless spikes of rock that deal her essence in Lethal damage (for stone surfaces) or Bashing damage(for clay or gravel surfaces). Such attacks cannot be parried except by charm defenses and count as mundane attacks for the purposes of certain defensive charms.
Brawl
Rushing Undertow Strike
Cost: 2 motes per +1 difficulty.
Type: Supplimental
Duration: Instant
Minimum Brawl: 5
Minimum Essence: 2
Striking forward with her fists the exalt allows her attack to crash harmlessly like waves upon the beach and likewise the essence of his attack scatters across his opponent and flows past him. Then like the tide it rushes back below the exalt's arms like the undertow of a tidal wave, sweeping his opponent's feet away in a rush of water essence. The exalt makes a sweep strike at the standard difficulty and every two motes the exalt spends on the attack raises the difficulty of his opponent's Dexterity+Athletics check to remain standing. The essence for this attack must be spent before it is rolled, and the exalt may not raise the difficulty of his attack higher than his permanent essence.
Larceny
Stream-Leaping Salmon Technique
Cost: 4 motes
Type: Simple
Duration: One Scene
Minimum Larceny: 3
Minimum Essence: 2
Like a salmon traveling against the current, a dragonblood can weave through packed crowds as easily as if there were only a handful of people in his path. Under the effect of the charm the character may move through packed crowds at full speed. Even if the crowd is so dense people are ordinarilly unable to move or he is travelling against the flow of a riot he may move as if there are no people obstructing him. This allows the dragonblood to squeeze past guards or evade a stampede of animals if the situation should arise. It however does not allow the dragonblood to attack with ease or attempt complex actions such as picking a lock or reading, it merely allows him to move without obstruction. The charm has the added bonus that it will allow the dragonblood to dodge without penalty in such a situation and also aids the exalt in escaping from clinches. As long as his opponent is not using charms, he may add his essence score to escape a clinch (not gain control).
