The first section is basically my take on Exalted. Right now I'm just copying up my notes so everything's very raw while I put down my ideas. I'll work on editing everything and making it more coherent later. As a result things will contradict the in game canon and even be self contradictory especially since not all my notes are copied in chronological order. They've been typed up without editing to remain as close as possible to my original vision.

Apocalyptic Spectral Slaughter

Keywords: Mirror (Rout-Stemming Gesture)

The Legions of an Abyssal should fear their master more than any enemy. As long as they do so they will never flee from battle. Many times the ranks of an Abyssal's army have been thought to waver and yet by the use of this Charm they've fought back with unshakable ferocity...
This Charm is used in response to the unit the Abyssal is leading failing a Valour roll. The Abyssal makes a supernatural attack on her own unit, arcs of black Essence tear through the ranks before anyone can flee reminding them of the greater terror that waits at their backs should they fail. Roll the character''s Charisma + War. Each success inflicts one level of lethal damage on the unit she is commanding. If the unit loses a greater number of health levels than the difficulty of the Valour roll they failed, they automatically pass the roll and do not need to make another for the remainder of the scene unless it's difficulty was greater than that affected by this Charm.

   Apocalyptic Spectral Slaughter
An Abyssal general has no mercy for cowards. If a unit she commands fails a Valour roll and tries to flee the Abyssal summons an army of shades that surround them on all sides and slaughter the trapped force until not a single member is left alive. After witnessing such a hellish massacre the opposing unit that caused the Valour roll must immediately take a Valour roll of their own with an equal difficulty or a difficulty of the now annihilated unit's Magnitude if that was lower.
