Description:The Solar frees a small portion of his exalted life-force and forges it into arms and armor with his Essence and Willpower. Upon using this charm the user is bedecked in arms and armor the color of his anima, and his banner reaches totemic level (this effect fades after the first round). This charm also summons a weapon equal in all ways to Glorious Solar Sabre, and Armor equal to Glorious Solar Plate. Any of the stats of the weapon or armor may be increased by spending two motes per point of increase. In addition this charm may summon a shield with the same ability and mote cost of the one summonable by GSP.

Comments

A couple of notes: The effects of this Charm are not really worth the cost for activating it, IMO. Granted, it's Reflexive rather than Simple so the armour & sword are instantly available, but there is no real saving on using this Charm instead of GSS & GSP (10m1W1L rather than 10m2W). If you want the effects as is, then I'd drop the HL cost, otherwise I'd give them some bennie over using GSS and GSP to compensate. Also, please note the BestPractices method of organising Charms - it makes far more sense organisationally to use SolarMelee/Issaru than it's current location. - Moxiane

GSP is 10motes and a willpower by itself, and you're not waiting two rounds before you can "do something". Also it's giving the effect of two siple charms at once as a reflexive! That was the point of the costing (as well as the fact i didn't want to have to set the minimum essence any higher). As far as the orginization......this was a lil more convenient for me to place them this way, but since it is on the Wiki (and isn't on something solely devoted to me and my projects) i'll get around to making those changes in a bit. - Issaru
Eep. Yeah. My bad on the costs. Was going from (obviously faulty) memory. chastened - Moxiane
NP! Thats why we own books (happens to me all the time sometimes mid-game.lol) - Issaru
