	The character channels his Essence into not his senses, granting him a cat's ability to see in darkness and an awareness of subtle changes in his visual environment. For the charm's duration, the character suffers no penalties from lack of lighting. Fog, snow, and the like may still obscure a character's vision, but a lack of light will not. In addition, the character can instantly perceive anything in his line of sight that moves, even if it were otherwise hidden. So an animal stalking though underbrush using its natural camouflage, or a person moving about while hiding in a bush will become visible to the character. Other attempts at stealth function normally, but even the slightest movement is visible.

	~~From the~~ Low Stance (one of the two stances most often associated with Leopard style), the character becomes capable of catching any limb extended in attack and using it to throw or hold his opponent. The character may immediately make a clinch or throw attack in response to any hand-to-hand attack directed against him. The roll for this counterattack is made after the roll for the incoming attack and any applicable defenses, but before damage is determined. Determine the difference (''D'') in successes between the incoming attack and the counterattack (thrown counterattacks still subtract 1 success, as usual). If the counterattack scores more successes, then the incoming attack misses completely and the counterattack is resolved as if it had scored ''D'' successes. If the incoming attack scores more successes, it is resolved as if it had scored ''D'' successes. The counterattack still succeeds (though extra successes are ignored) but, if a throw, the initial attacker gains ''D'' dice on the test to avoid knockdown or, if the counterattack was a clinch, gains ''D'' dice on his next attempt to control the clinch. Only one counterattack can be made against each incoming attack. This charm may not be used against another counterattack.

In addition, the incoming attack has a number of successes equal to the exalt's Essence negated. The counterattack is made after the opponent�s roll to hit, but before damage is determined.

	This charm may also be used to augment standard (i.e. normal attacks, not throws or clinches) counterattacks gained through other means, such as those provided by [[Leopard Form]]. The bonus dice so provided are considered Martial Arts dice for the purpose of calculating pool limits.

	Leopards avoid combat whenever possible, seeking to catch an opponent off-balance and flee. But when cornered or outnumbered a leopard can be a deadly and furious opponent. With this Charm, the character may internalize his Essence, becoming capable of lashing out at multiple opponents at once. Upon activating this Charm, the character may make one attack against every opponent within reach. It is up to the Storyteller to determine who is and is not within reach, but anyone who can be attacked by the character will be. The character utilizes his full dice pool for each attack, and is only limited by the number of possible targets. The player need not attack everyone within reach � he may decide to spare allies or certain opponents.
