Add [Ability] dice to an applicable roll. You may buy this charm for multiple Abilities, but must choose a new Ability each time. This is a full Charm purchase and not a repurchase. During combat, this applies on Step 1. Outside of combat, it may be used freely.

After resolving a Close Combat attack, the character makes a second Close Combat attack against the same target or a different one. This attack is treated as though it were part of a flurry. The initial attack is not penalized.

Cost	Commit 1m
Step	(1)
Type	Buff
Duration	-

The Infernal may suppress one ongoing effect that transforms or weakens her body, such as her wound penalties, dramatic injuries, or forced transformations.

Ten Ox Meditation

Cost	1m

When Ten attempts a feat of strength, reduce the difficulty by Essence+1, to a minimum of one. If this reduces the difficulty below the need to roll, the attempt happens automagically.

Presence

Dread Tiger's Symmetry

Cost	Commit 1m
Step	(1)
Type	Buff
Duration	Scene

The Exalt adds her Essence in bonus dice and gains Double 9s on any threatening Influence Actions. If a character has a Tie of fear toward the Exalt, add bonus dice equal to its intensity. The bonus dice from Ties do not count toward the limit. Mundane animals and extras flee from the Exalt outright unless compelled to remain through training or magic.

ARTEFACTS

The Nameless Nails

Sixty-Four spikes of hellish brass, forged in the demon city by its incomparable smiths. When hammered into the efficacious meridians of the body they impart a terrible strength to the recipient – provided she survives the procedure.

• Type: Light Melee Weapon / Light Armour
• Tags: Artefact, Natural, Balanced, Paired
• Hearthstone Slots: 1

When implanted into the body, the Nameless Nails reinforce it. The user's unarmed attacks count as artefact weapons with the above stat-line, and their naked body becomes as tough as a splendid suit of armour. The Hearthstone slot is found at the base of the throat.
