Current Status

Attributes

PHYSICAL:

• Strength 2 (average strength; lift 160 lbs)
• Dexterity 5 (almost inhumanly swift and graceful)
• Stamina 4 (can march all day without being unduly tired; soak 4 bashing / 2 lethal)

SOCIAL:

• Charisma 2 (average charisma)
• Manipulation 2 (average manipulation)
• Appearance 5/7 (by nature, even the most jaded sovereigns turn their heads when she enters the room. However when wearing her Stone of Inhuman Beauty, she can not be made to look anything but divinely gorgeous. If dressed in rags and covered in mud, she appears stylishly disheveled. If disguised to look horribly scarred, she seems to bear noble wounds that must obviously have come from performing some grand feat of heroism.)

MENTAL:

• Perception 3 (keeps careful track of what's going on around her)
• Intelligence 2 (average intelligence)
• Wits 2 (passable at thinking on her feet)

• Melee 5 (can defeat a skilled soldier while standing on one foot and blindfolded)
  • Swords 1
• Presence 3 (can inspire completely demoralized troops before a battle)
• Socialize 2 (can hold her own in court without committing any serious faux pas)

Favored Abilities

• Martial Arts 3 (can skillfully fight multiple opponents)
• Occult 3 (can recognize the difference between real and fake talismans and successfully bargain with moderately powerful gods.)
  • Demons 1

Other Abilities

• Archery 2

Willpower and Virtues

Willpower: 6 (confident but not unflappable)
Virtues:

• Compassion: 1 "Poor child, at least you're safe from the demons now."
• Conviction: 3 "What you have done with your mighty essence, I have undone with my bare hands"
• Temperance: 2 "Any Realm legionnaire could drink the lot of you yokels under the table without breaking a sweat"

Essence and Anima

Essence: 3

• Essence Pool: 66 (see Beacon of Power)

Breeding: 6

• This superb ancestry adds 6 motes to her Personal Essence pool and 11 motes to her Peripheral Essence pool. In addition, she reduces the cost of activating her anima banner by 3 and adds 3 to the roll to determine if her children Exalt. The physical signs of Legendary Breeding are patently obvious, conferring an additional die on most Social rolls with other Dragon-Blooded and mortals who respect or fear the majesty of those chosen by the Dragons. However, the distinctiveness of such breeding adds two to the difficulty of all attempts for Yuusuka to disguise herself as someone else.
