Prerequisite Charms: Whirlwind Armor-Donning Prana

On each round of donning armor with the prerequisite, the Lawgiver can attack without a flurry by doing a stunt in which she attacks while putting on a piece of armor. If she knows Call the Blade or Summoning the Loyal Steel, she may use either Charm reflexively for free while Armed and Ready Discipline is active. On Armed and Ready Discipline The backer wanted a Charm that would let him use Whirlwind Armor-Donning Prana and Summoning the Loyal Steel at the same time, and I thought "why stop there?" It was actually a tricky Charm to work out, since those other Charms are about as efficient as you can pos¬sibly get. In the end I decided to value-add this Charm by allowing you to arm yourself while attacking, punching through vambraces to snap them on, clapping on a breast¬plate while delivering a spinning slash, drop-kicking into your greaves, and so on.
