  Water totally neutralizes any fire-based attacks and gives +1 to L+B soak.
  Wood surrounds the Dragon-Blood with a thick cloud of irritants hand-to-hand attackers who fail a (Stamina + Resistance) roll suffer a -1 penalty for the rest of the scene.
  A Dragon-Blood of the same aspect is immune to these aspect-related effects or any DB at 8+ mote level. Only one version can be maintained at a time, and the activation of a different version cancels out the prior one. He knows them all, no out of aspect mote charge.

• SMOLDERING KARMA STRIKE 3m; Type: Reflexive (Step 9) Combo-OK, Counterattack Instant Whenever the Dragon- Blood relies on his Dodge DV and the attacker fails to hit him, the Dragon-Blood can make a reflexive Martial Arts or Melee counterattack with his full dice pool.

Second, each of the five Unassailable Body of (Element) Defenses is vulnerable to a particular type of weapon or attack or else suffers from a situution in which it will not apply.
  Air is vulnerable to Earth-aspected elemental attacks and to extremely large melee weapons that carry the Overwhelming tag, as the strong breeze caused by the passage of such weapons disrupts the Body of Air.
  Earth is vulnerable to attacks with wooden weapons such as arrows or clubs and to Wood-aspected elemental attacks, as even the toughest earth must yield to the burrowing roots of trees.
  Fire is vulnerable to Wateraspected elemental attacks, and also will not function while the Dragon-Blood is in the water or is otherwise wet.
  Water is vulnerable to Air-aspected elemental attacks and also will not function in conditions of extreme cold, as water inevitably loses its fl uidity in such situations.
  Wood is vulnerable to Fire-aspected elemental attacks or simply to fire attacks such as flaming arrows.
  He knows them all, can only use one at a time, no out of aspect mote cost This is a refl exive Charm that can be used freely without the need for a Combo. It can be activated on any tick on which the Exalt is subject to an attack.

On a successful melee attack, the Dragon-Blood may also infl ict an elemental effect appropriate to his aspect on the target.
Air buffets the target, subtracting two dice from her next action.
Earth triggers a tremor beneath the target’s feet, forcing her player to roll (Dexterity + Athletics), diffi culty 4, to keep the character from falling.
Fire sets the target ablaze for a single action, giving a +4L bonus to the Dragon-Blood’s damage dice pool.
Water fills the target’s lungs with seawater, adding three ticks before her next action due to violent coughing.
Wood poisons the target’s blood, causing her to suffer a -1 penalty on all actions for the scene if her player fails a refl exive (Stamina + Resistance) roll. Regardless of the specific elemental version learned, this Charm
is always considered to be a Fire-aspected Charm for purposes of determining whether the one-mote surcharge for out-of-aspect Charms applies, and Dragon-Blooded can learn only the version associated with their aspects.

• Terristrial Melee Reinforcement A Dragon-Blood with this Charm can improve the ratings of his allies in the relevant Ability for brief periods of time, effectively transferring the benefi ts of the First Excellency to another person for the duration of an entire scene. All allies to be affected must hold hands at the time of the Charm’s activation. The Dragon-Blood must spend one mote for every ally to be augmented and one mote for every two dice that are added to each person’s rating in the relevant Ability. The maximum number of allies who can have their Ability ratings boosted at one time is equal to the Dragon-Blood’s permanent Essence. The Charm has two limitations. First, no ally’s Ability rating can be raised above the Ability rating of the Exalt who invokes this Charm. Second, no ally’s Ability rating can be increased to more than twice its normal rating. Therefore, the ally must have at least one dot in the Ability for this Charm to affect him at all. The extra Ability dots apply for an entire scene for all purposes. If the augmented Ability affects one of the ally’s DV ratings, the relevant DV should be recalculated for the duration of the scene.

The opponent is blinded for the following action, -2sux to attack rolls can make (Wits+ Dodge) roll to look away and just lose 2 dice. This is a reflexive Charm that can be used freely without the need for a Combo. Can be used when which the Dragon-Blood acts, an intervening tick when a Counterattack Charm is used or on any intervening tick when the DB parries

Cutting Sound ●●● Attune 4.
Perfect Sanxian. This sanxian is made of polished kauri wood and strung with silver and gold. The snakeskin covering its soundbox came from a serpent-god. The soul of an old master performer is bound into the strings, which never break or need tuning, and aids performances. When attuned for three motes, playing this sanxian adds two successes to Performance rolls. These add to whatever bonus an Exalted player can add through Charms. Any duffer can sound good playing this sanxian; a Solar musician could make Deathlords weep or call stars from the skies.
Two successes are about equivalent to four dice. The commitment is a little less than normal, but not enough to alter anything. Also has a short Daiklave in it.

Prism of focused passion;●● This prism-shaped carnelian allows the bearer to inflame passions in others.

The bearer of a prism of focused passion gains three additional dice on all Presence or Performance rolls designed to inflame emotions. Also, for purposes of resisting these inflamed passions a target’s Temperance is treated as if it were two points less than it is (to a minimum of 1). The latter effect works only on a single target at a time. Oadenals, 93.
