Duration: One scene
Prerequisite Charms: Glowing Coal Radiance

With this Charm, the peerless self-confidence of the Princes of the Earth (not Fire?) can be backed up with pure physicality, as the Dragon-Blood's natural charisma physically bolsters his body. For the duration of the Charm, the Dragon-Blood gains +1 bashing and lethal soak and three temporary -0 health levels. The extra health levels are the first to be lost when the character suffers damage, and once lost, they cannot be healed back, even with Charms that permit instantaneous healing. At the end of the scene, the extra health levels fade automatically, even if they have not been used up. A character cannot benefit from this Charm more than once per scene.

Latest Errata: Conferred soak is natural. When the temporary health levels fade, they heal three levels of bashing damage (and/or lethal if Essence 4+) and any remaining damage is reapplied to the character's normal health levels. This can be fatal. The leader use of the Charm only applies temporary levels to the unit's health for its current Magnitude and does not provide healing.
