Cost: —; Mins: Occult 5, Essence 3; Type: Permanent
Keywords: Obvious
Duration: N/A
Prerequisite Charms: God-Slaying Torment

This Charm enhances its prerequisite, allowing the Abyssal to steal motes with attacks against the Fair Folk and annihilate their bodies and Essence on a fatal attack, as per a spirit. Against humans, this effect only steals motes from those who have them (such as an Exalt), but obliterates their higher souls with a fatal attack, leaving flesh for reanimation and lower souls that automatically rise as hungry ghosts.

If the Abyssal has Essence 5+, whenever a valid target dies within (Essence x 10) yards, the deathknight may activate God-Slaying Torment as an innate power rather than requiring a Charm activation in order to annihilate that being. Doing so does not provide Essence unless the Abyssal actually struck the deathblow.
