The Lawgivers govern wisely. This Charm supplements an organizational effort that the Solar leads—a dramatic action taken by a bureaucratic, mercantile or governmental organization. This Charm reduces the external penalties on that action by the Solar's Essence. It permanently reduces any internal penalties that organization suffers due to endemic corruption or inefficiency by one. The Solar must have sufficient authority to lead the effort. For example, the Solar could lead a nation's effort to build a network of roads, reducing the penalties imposed by bandits, uncleared wilderness and reluctant labor. This Charm incidentally purges the least useful members of the bureaucracy.
