'''Prerequisite Charms:''' [[Righteous Devil Form]]

Closing her eyes, the Righteous Devil perceives the ebb and flow of [[Essence]] around her through a mandala of blue rings, nine notched discs of silver-blue light that spin around her foes in her mind's eye. If her [[anima]] banner is at the bonfire level, this azure abacus becomes visible to all within its light, the silvery rings orbiting around the stylist and aligning as she lines up a shot. Firing through this reticule mandala hones in on an enemy's weakest point, granting benefits commensurate to the enemy's level of [[cover]]. 

* Enemies that do not benefit from [[cover]] lose all [[soak]] against the [[attack]], except for that provided by [[Charm]]s and other magical effects. [[Artifact]] [[armor]] is not considered a magical effect.
* Enemies under [[light cover]] halve their mundane soak against the attack.
* Enemies under [[heavy cover]] subtract -1 from their mundane soak for every extra success on the attack roll, but not below half their full value.
* Enemies under [[full cover]] are unaffected. 

[[Azure Abacus Meditation]] may only be used once per scene, unless reset by successfully landing a [[decisive]] attack against an enemy under light or heavy cover and then building up to [[Initiative]] 12+. 

'''Terrestrial:''' A Dragon-Blood always treat enemies as having at least light cover with this Charm, preventing her from fully negating soak.
