Through the use of this charm a Lawgiver is capable of giving even the most mortally wounded of patients a chance at survival. The Exalt channels his essence through the focus of his medical training fortifying the body of his patient.

Prerequisite Charms:: Wound Mending Care Technique, Patient Stabilization Technique

Even those patients whose bodies have nothing left to give may not be beyond the reach of a skilled Lawgiver. Using his skills as a focus and his body as a conduit, the Solar Exalt channels golden Solar essence into his patient, causing their body to glow internally with a warm light and shocking their systems back into function. The Solar makes a Wits+Medicine roll equal to the number of ticks that have passed since the target’s death divided by two. If he succeeds, the target recovers to his first dying health level after which his status will continue to degrade normally unless other measures are taken. This charm automatically fails if a number of ticks have passed since the target’s death equal to his (Willpower + Essence)x2.

When activating this charm, the character rolls Wits + Medicine; for each success rolled he may remove either two bashing wounds or one lethal wound from his target. He pays 1 mote for each bashing wound removed and 2 motes per each lethal wound. These wounds are removed from the target’s health track as if they had never occurred. This removal is only temporary, however, and after a number of hours per point of the treating character’s Essence elapse, all of the removed damage is immediately and unavoidably returned to the patient’s health track. An additional level of unsoakable lethal damage is also inflicted due to the shock of the damage’s return.

So masterful is the Lawgiver’s skill that he can craft potent medicinal salves and treatments. By infusing a portion of his divine spark into his work, he can create wonders that will shine with his life giving light, even if he himself is not present. The Salves created by this charm can duplicate the effects of Medicine charms already known to the character. When applied by another person, it’s as if the Solar himself were using the charm to treat the patient. Have the Solar make any rolls required by the charm at the time of the Salve’s creation. Creating such a salve takes a number of days equal to ½ the minimum essence requirement of the charm and require the character to succeed at an Intelligence + Medicine roll with a difficulty equal to the duplicated charm’s minimum Medicine requirement. The solar must commit 6 motes per extant Salve and Salves will last for a number of days equal to the Solar’s essence, until used, or until the committed essence is withdrawn, whichever comes first. A character can have up to his Essence in Salves at any one time. At essence 6 the duration of this charm is measured in weeks, the commitment is reduced to 4 motes, and the cap on extant charms becomes Essence x2.
