Whenever the Solar activates a Resistance charm, she temporarily ignores the Overwhelming tag of attacks targeting her and reduces the minimum damage of attacks against her by ½ her essence. This effect persists for a number of ticks equal to either twice the number of motes spent activating the charm or the character’s stamina + resistance, whichever is lower.

The Lawgivers inherit the power of Sol Invictus, greatest of the Incarna. As his chosen avatars they are able to draw upon their divine heritage and bring their animas to bear as a powerful shield. The Solar’s caste mark flares into streaming brilliance and he becomes lambent with the scintillating light of his anima. Reduce the raw damage from all sources by an amount equal to his Resistance + Essence. This effect occurs in step 7. The effects of this charm may be augmented via the first Resistance Excellency on an attack by attack basis

By calling on his divine heritage, a Solar may infuse his flesh with the essence of the sun, transmuting it into that most unmatchable of metals, Orihalcom! While under the effects of this charm, all raw bashing damage is reduced to one die, all raw lethal damage is reduced to bashing, and one half of the raw aggravated damage is reduced to lethal. This effect occurs in step 7. Attacks capable of harming one of the magical materials ignore this reduction.

So perfect are the forms of the Lawgivers that they possess no weakness or flaw for a cunning or skilled foe to exploit. Activating this charm causes the attacker to treat his attack successes as zero when determining raw damage. This applies to all attacks against the Solar in the tick in which it is activated.

A Solar’s anima is intimately linked with the defining characteristics of his very being. With a focus of will, a Lawgiver can render the area his anima describes sacrosanct; none may violate this sacred personal barrier. The Solar may activate this charm in response to any action or effect targeting his person. Refutation of Harm causes the effect to be ignored entirely, as if it never targeted the Solar.

Pre-Requisite Charms: Refutation of Harm

So perfect are the bodies of the Solar Exalted that the base weapons forged by mortals will twist themselves apart in shame rather than touch them. The Exalt becomes immune to damage from mundane weapons. Any such weapons that hit the character are destroyed. Opponents striking the character with natural attacks that are not enhanced by charms or other magics receive dice in bashing damage equal to their own strength upon striking the Solar. This damage bypasses armor.
