With this charm, the disciple of the crane style scrutinizes the ebb and flow of her opponent's Essence, allowing her to anticipate and counter his every movement. The character chooses a single target when she activates this charm. For the remainder of the scene, add a number of automatic successes equal to her permanent Essence score to all of her Martial Arts, Dodge and Awareness rolls for attacking, defending against, or perceiving the actions or intentions of the chosen target. These automatic successes may not be used to initiate a reflexive dodge or parry action. The character may reflexively spend 1 Willpower at any time to change the target of this charm.
