===Golden Barque of the Heavens Form=== <b>Cost:</b> 5 motes <b>Duration:</b> One scene <b>Type:</b> Simple <b>Minimum Martial Arts:</b> 4 <b>Minimum Essence:</b> 2 <b>Prerequisite Charms:</b> Assault's Unreached Destination, Fleet Cavalry Maneuver Adopting the wary yet aloof stance of one who has been everywhere and seen everything, Exalted using this Form gain the ability to defend themselves using a cascading parry and may block lethal damage without the need for a stunt while unarmed. A character who either declares (as a full dice action) or aborts to a cascading parry may defend himself against all attacks in a turn with her full [[Dexterity]] + [[Martial Arts]] pool and ignore considerations of weapon rate. Reflecting Mercury's willingness to be in motion, the character adds his Martial Arts score to his base initiative. As long as he is wielding <b>Golden Barque of the Heavens Style</b>'s [[signature weapons]], the character does not suffer off-hand weapon or dual wielding penalties. Exalted using this form may reflexively spend a mote of Essence to turn any of his Dodge attempts into a hopping defense, leaping his [[Martial Arts]] + [[Essence]] yards away from his assailant after the attack is resolved. Finally, the Maiden of Journeys' connection to objects in motion allows her Chosen to keep firm footing and balance on such things without the need for an [[Athletics]] roll. For example, the Martial Artist could effortlessly fight in the rigging of a storm-tossed ship, in a wagon racing down a treacherous road, or even on the backs of stampeding cattle. Characters cannot normally use more than one Martial Arts Form-type Charm at a time.
