Like Oblivion, Dark Messiah Style doesn't focus a practitioner on petty ideas like cruelty or bloodlust. The nature of Oblivion does not seek to kill but to destroy. Other, weaker martial arts might focus on the torment and manipulation of their victims, Dark Messiah Style is used to feed on them.

   While it's possible for a Dark Messiah to tear an enemy's soul apart, with a greater Charm it's possible to tear it out of their body completely.
     Resolve the damage from an unarmed martial arts attack with an external penalty equal to the sum of the target's Virtues. Victims of Chakra Violating Blow cannot be affected by this Charm since a part of their soul has already been destroyed and replaced with Abyssal Essence so it cannot be stripped away. If the attack succeeds the Dark Messiah tear the opponent's heart from their chest and their soul with it killing them instantly.
    The power of the victim's soul now becomes their's. While the magically preserved heart is still in their possession they may use the soul's Virtue channels for their own dice rolls as if they were their own (these cannot be combined with the character's own Virtue channels) and use the number of the soul's remaining Virtue channels in place of the own Virtue rating for a related roll. They may use any Willpower points the target has and gain no Resonance for doing so (the dead soul of another Exalt no longer has an Exaltation to cause the tormented spirit Limit Break.) The character may also bite into the heart consuming it's Essence as a Miscellaneous Action and decreasing it's Essence rating by one. Doing so gives the character access to ten extra motes of Essence until the end of their next action. A spirit reduces to zero Essence is destroyed and it's heart shrivels and dries up into dust.
