With this Charm, the Exalt centres himself and concentrates, willing shining Essence to surround his arms, shoulders and upper back. When this Essence settles on the martial artist’s body, it materializes and takes on the Charm’s eponymous appearance, appropriate to the Exalt’s elemental aspect. For example, a Fire-aspected martial artist might adorn himself with rubies and garnets held together in a latticework of shining obsidian, while a Water-aspect speardancer might create a covering of seashells and pearls. Regardless, the Exalt who invokes this Charm adds his Essence to his bashing and lethal soaks for the scene. The effect of this Charm is not armour per se, more like a form of natural soak, so it doesn’t conflict with the armour prohibition for this style.

With this Charm, the Exalt fortifies his weapon toward some noble purpose. He spends a short, quiet period alone, ritually cleaning and sharpening his weapon, then he speaks aloud the task to which his weapon shall be used victoriously. (This task must be a specific one, such as, “Today, you and I shall finally destroy the Lunar Anathema whose barbarian horde razed our village.”)<br>

For the next day, the martial artist may add his permanent Essence to the Damage of his weapon when he uses it in pursuit of his task.

With utmost mastery of her art, the speardancer becomes a living storm of death. His fl uid, acrobatic style lets him position himself to maximize his weapon’s usefulness against multiple foes. When he activates this Charm, the Exalt perceives a graceful, sweeping path that effortlessly connects a number of opponents equal to his permanent Essence. It is but a heartbeat’s worth of effort to trace his weapon through this connection, striking every foe in one long stroke. The character’s player makes a single (Dexterity + Martial Arts) roll—including appropriate bonuses from this style’s Form-type Charm—for her to hit all targets at a -1 internal penalty for each target after the first (to a maximum of -3). Targets apply their DVs individually as normal. The martial artist counts the extra successes from his attack twice when adding them to his raw damage total, and he rolls damage separately against each target (based on how well their DVs defended them).<br>
 +
This Charm provides no special defense against or protection from coordinated attacks performed by multiple opponents. The Essence for this Charm must be spent before making the attack roll.

When a martial artist has invoked the prerequisite Charm, he may choose to invoke the Furious Battle Scythe as well. The flashing pendant created by the Glorious Southern Harbinger of War and Fury Charm crystallizes into the fearsome blade of a magnifi cent scythe. Using this Charm while wielding a polearm grants +1 to Accuracy, +5 to Damage and +1 to Rate, and it imposes a Parry DV penalty of -1. Characters cannot activate this Charm unless they have already activated the prerequisite Charm in the same scene.
