Do Terrestrial Martial Arts or Terrestrial Circle Sorcery count as mortal Charms?  :V<br/><br/>But, more seriously: if my memory is correct, Re Z L has said upthread or elsewhere that unless you have a Charm that modifies how your Virtues act, then they behave as in the Core book.   Most of the people who have sheets up in the Cast thread have a Virtue spread that merely makes them fairly twisted human beings as the average person would reckon them to be.  Serpent and Thorn are both callous, brutal souls who are incredibly stubborn and enjoy challenges, but you don't need Infernal Charms to do that-- you just need Compassion 1 and high Conviction and Valor.  Wave Conquering Arms doesn't back down from a challenge given to him, and all that requires is Valor 3+; because he has a particular purchase of Intolerable Burning Truths, though, if he had Compassion 3 he would not need to suppress it in order to execute a killing blow if it were someone he hated.   I drew up Minha as a very caring soul who is genuinely interested in the spiritual and physical well-being of the people around her, but I made<em>absolutely</em>sure to buy Cosmic Transcendence of Compassion, and a particular lens through which it could be focused, to allow her the chance to fit in with the bunch of crazies here without spending Willpower every scene.<br/><br/>A number of characters here are at least a little sociopathic, and the rest have superpowers that edge them to and sideways from conventional human empathy, but they remain people-- at least certainly in the same sense that gods and elementals and demons and Jadeborn and Dragon Kings are people (and how raksha are an excellent emulation of people).  More specifically, in relevance to my earlier assertion observation, Black Claw style has hilarious UMI effects that make appearing to be a fragile, vulnerable flower that only terrible people would hurt a viable combat tactic.<br/><br/>...and speaking of which I forgot to designate Minha's Primary Virtue, which is Compassion, and is now on her sheet marked as such.
