Humbling Enlightenment Commentary

Cost: 1m, 1wp; Mins: Martial Arts, 4 Essence
Type: Supplemental
Keywords: Decisive-only, Template:Mastery, Terrestrial
Duration: Instant
Prerequisite Charms: Crane Form

The grace of the crane inspires those who bear witness to it. Humbling Enlightenment Commentary adds any stunt dice awarded to a decisive attack to its damage roll as well, as long as the stunt is based on verbally analyzing the enemy's fighting style or the conflict as a whole in the style of an illustrative lesson or parable. If the damage of the attack exceeds the enemy's Resolve, the martial artist may count it as an automatically successful instill action to build a positive Minor Tie to a group or a Principle representing a philosophical or ethical belief, based on the stunted commentary. If the enemy spends Willpower to resist or already possesses the Intimacy the martial artist is trying to create, he loses (the Crane stylist's Charisma) Initiative (which the martial artist does not gain) as his attention is split between physical and philosophical conflict.

Terrestrial: A Dragon-Blood can only use this Charm to enhance counterattacks granted by Crane Form or Crossed Wings Deflection.

Mastery: If the martial artist herself possesses the Intimacy she wishes to instill in her enemy with Humbling Enlightenment Commentary, she adds its rating in bonus dice to the attack roll. Template:Crane Style Charms
