  • The Dragon-Blood speaks into the wind, sending their voice afar on subtle currents of air. Spend 1 mote. The Exalt may send a spoken message of no more than a few sentences to a chosen target within the same narrative location (such as a town or city). The message cannot be overheard or intercepted by mundane means. Magical attempts to do are made at Difficulty 7. To reach their hearthmates, the Exalt may send a message much further such as a neighboring city or town.

  • The Exalt may gaze into the world’s Essence and unravel the patterns of magic that make up Creation. The secrets of Creation’s mystical workings, spirit magics, and sorcery are unveiled. Commit 1 mote for the scene. The Exalt perceives the presence of Essence, including dematerialized spirits and borders between worlds such as the Wyld or shadowlands as gauzy distortions. Attuned artifacts appear as though lit from within, and hearthstones burn like embers. Whenever a character uses Essence to power Charms or any other effects, these are always visible to the user as though the character had an active anima. They may make Force + Sagacity rolls to try to understand spirit magics, sorcerous workings and other strange phenomena like those produced by demesnes, the Wyld and the Underworld or to identify the use of a Charm. Such effects may have variable difficulty — typically three plus the creator’s Essence or a difficulty modified by the effect’s nature and complexity.

The sorcerer gains the ability to learn and cast First Circle Spells. With each purchase of this Charm, the sorcerer also gains a free Spell and shaping ritual.

Sorcery & Spells

• Shaping Ritual: The sorcerer gathers strength by ritual offerings. Tokens grant one Will; valuable sacrifices grant two; and exotic, unique, or powerful sacrifices generate three. (Modified Pact with Ifrit)
• Virtuous Guardian of the Flame
• Cost: 5 Will
• Duration: One Day
• The sorcerer draws a flickering sword of lightning from her own heart, shaping a blazing sentinel to keep vigil over her. As she completes the spell, the blade collapses into a will-o’-the-wisp no larger than a torchlight — the sorcerer may conceal the Virtuous Guardian of Flame by commanding it to rest within an existing lit lantern or torch she carries. Should she be attacked, the wisp flares back into sword shape to fend off her enemy, protecting her as per the defend other action (Exalted Essence, p. 126) with a Parry of ([higher of Essence or Sagacity] + 1). The virtuous guardian can even notice threats of which the sorcerer is unaware, rolling (Essence + Attribute + Sagacity) to detect hidden enemies. Wooden projectiles or weapons successfully blocked by the guardian are burnt to ashes. If it parries an unarmed attack or other natural attack, the attacker suffers one die of lethal damage, ignoring Hardness. Even when its parries fail, its energy blunts the force of attacks against the sorcerer, adding (Essence) natural soak against all but unblockable attacks. The guardian has soak (Essence + 5), Hardness (Essence), and (Essence + Sagacity) −0 health levels. It cannot take any actions of its own. If the guardian is crashed, it dissipates for a scene, unable to protect the sorcerer, but reforms after that. If its health track is filled with damage, it’s utterly destroyed, and the sorcerer cannot resummon it until its full duration has elapsed.
  • Rules converted from 3e DB Book
• Stormwind Rider
• Cost: 5 Will
• Duration: One Hour
• Bending the winds to her will, the sorcerer creates a servile dust devil to ride. The Stormwind Rider is treated as a flying mount, although it cannot take the sorcerer to more than short range above the ground. (Attribute + Sagacity) replaces the usual rolls for all combat movement actions. The whirlwind can carry up to (Essence x 2) additional characters, or one hundred pounds of cargo in place of a single passenger. While it cannot soar as high as the Cirrus Skiff, the Stormwind Rider can travel at nearly 100 miles an hour and maneuver through forests or cities. In a race with other characters, the sorcerer rolls (Attribute + Sagacity + Essence) for each interval. In combat, characters within the Stormwind Rider are treated as having light cover against attacks made from outside of it, and vice versa. A passenger who is crashed or hit with a decisive attack is knocked out of the whirlwind, and suffers falling damage if applicable.
