Prerequisite Charms: Spirit Strengthens the Skin, Iron Skin Concentration

Driven by her purpose and her Virtues, the Exalt becomes invincible. The Solar invokes this Charm immediately before the damage of a physical attack or similar effect is rolled. This Charm is a perfect defense against the raw damage of the attack, reducing it to zero after all other effects.

This Charm has one of the Four Flaws of Invulnerability.

As a point of clarification, this Charm (and its Abyssal Mirror) reduces the raw and final damage of an incoming attack or similar phenomenon to zero after all other modifiers and effects. Damage added to an attack after soak is applied, such as by Fire and Stones Strike, cannot harm a character who activates Adamant Skin Technique.

Wounds Mean Nothing

Same Charm for Abyssal Exalted.
Adds Mirror keyword.
Prerequisite Charms: Any Resistance Excellency, Injury-Absorbing Discipline, Spirit-Hardened Frame

Death has no power over those who have cheated its clutches. The Abyssal activates this Charm immediately before damage is rolled against her. All damage appears to apply normally, seemingly wounding or even slaying the Abyssal—which is appropriately spectacular when he falls from a great height or stands in the path of Solar Circle sorcery. His injuries are a lie, however, as the Abyssal heals back all of this "damage" less than a second. The net result is that the Abyssal perfectly defends against all damage from the attack.

This Charm carries one of the Four Flaws of Abyssal Invulnerability.
