== Charms ==
*'''FIRST ARCHERY EXCELLENCY''' <br/>
1m per 1 die up to attribute + Ability

*'''PULSE OF THE PREY'''
Cost: 3m or 5m; Mins: Archery 4, Essence 1; <br/>
Type: Supplemental <br/>
Keywords: Combo-OK, Mirror (There is No Wind;
Exalted, p. 187) <br/>
Duration: Instant <br/>
Prerequisite Charms: Any Archery Excellency <br/>
No distraction can keep an Abyssal from his quarry. His
attacks unnaturally twist in flight with a predatory hunger of
their own to find their mark, negating all penalties except
wound and multiple-action penalties. <br/>

*'''WITHERING FEATHERED MAELSTROM'''
Cost: 2m or 4m per attack; Mins: Archery 3, Essence 2; <br/>
Type: Extra Action <br/>
Keywords: Combo-OK, Mirror (Trance of Unhesitating
Speed; Exalted, p. 187), Obvious <br/>
Duration: Instant <br/>
Prerequisite Charms: Any Archery Excellency <br/>
His fingers an unnatural blur of motion, the Abyssal
draws and fires a barrage from his weapon. <br/>

*'''DOOM DRAWN AND IMMINENT'''
Cost: 3m Mins: Archery 3, Essence 2; Type: Reflexive <br/>
Keywords: Combo-Basic, Emotion, Mirror (Flashing Vengeance
Draw; Exalted, p. 188) <br/>
Duration: Instant <br/>
Prerequisite Charms: Withering Feathered Maelstrom <br/>
When an Abyssal archer draws his weapon, panic ensues.
Death is coming, its cold fist tight on the hearts of those who
might be prey. Activating this Charm instantly draws and loads
an Archery weapon the deathknight has available, either on
his person or banished Elsewhere via Banished Bow Arsenal
(see p. 124). More importantly, if this Charm is used during a
Join Battle action, all other combatants who beat the Abyssal’s
player’s roll feel overwhelming dread at the thought of initiating
hostilities against the suddenly armed deathknight. As a
result, they suffer an internal penalty equal to the Abyssal’s
Archery rating on all attacks directed against the deathknight
until he takes his first action. Any attacker willing to reflexively
spend three Willpower can end the Charm’s unnatural mental
influence over her (gaining Limit or Resonance if appropriate),
allowing her to attack the Abyssal without penalty. <br/>

*'''VOID STARES BACK (tainted)'''
Cost: 3m (2xp); Mins: Awareness 3, Essence 2; <br/>
Type: Simple <br/>
Keywords: Combo-OK, Obvious, Taint <br/>
Duration: Indefinite <br/>
Prerequisite Charms: None <br/>
The Abyssal’s pupils ooze outward to stain iris and
white alike with featureless and pitiless darkness. Enemies
who stare into this darkness sometimes see their own death
reflected within, the death they fear or perhaps the death
the Neverborn wish for them (though such visions carry no
true prophetic power). More practically, the deathknight can
see perfectly in the dark without any penalties or reduction
in visibility. He is no better able to see through fog or other
visual obstructions. <br/>
The Taint drawback to this Charm is that the Abyssal’s
eyes become painfully sensitive to direct sunlight within
Creation, imposing a -1 internal penalty to all non-reflexive
actions while so illuminated unless he closes his eyes completely.
His eyes also immediately betray his supernatural
nature if he cannot somehow hide their stain. The Taint
costs one bonus point or two experience points. <br/>

*''' FIRST PRESENCE EXCELLENCY''' <br/>
1m per 1 die up to attribute + Ability. <br/>

*'''POISONING THE WILL''' <br/> 
Cost: 10m, 1wp; Mins: Presence 3, Essence 2; Type: Simple <br/>   
Keywords: Combo-OK, Compulsion, Mirror (Hypnotic
Tongue Technique; Exalted, p. 203), Social, Stackable, Touch <br/>  
Duration: Abyssal’s Charisma in days <br/> 
Prerequisite Charms: Any Presence Excellency <br/>  
Deathknights delight in making their victims the instrument  
of their own suffering, burying hidden commands in 
the deepest recesses of their psyche. Both this Charm and its   
Solar Mirror have the Compulsion keyword (although it was   
erroneously left out of the Mirror’s write-up in Exalted). <br/>

*'''FIRST RESISTANCE EXCELLENCY'''
1m per 1 die added up to attribute + Ability <br/>
    
*'''INJURY-ABSORBING DISCIPLINE''' <br/>   
Cost: 10m; Mins: Resistance 1, Essence 1; Type: Supplemental <br/>   
Keywords: Combo-OK, Mirror (Body-Mending Meditation;   
Exalted, p. 208) <br/>   
Duration: Until the night ends <br/>   
Prerequisite Charms: None <br/>   
Having died once, Abyssals quickly shrug off lesser   
wounds as inconsequential. <br/>   
     
*'''SPIRIT-HARDENED FRAME''' <br/>   
Cost: 3m; Mins: Resistance 2, Essence 1; <br/>   
Type: Reflexive (Step 7) <br/>   
Keywords: Combo-OK, Mirror (Durability of Oak Meditation;   
Exalted, p. 206) <br/>   
Duration: Instant <br/>   
Prerequisite Charms: None <br/>   
Having returned from death, an Abyssal sneers at   
feeble attacks. <br/>
