Honorary Lector Excessively Righteous Blossom is a brave but flawed Alchemical Exalted of the Moonsilver Caste. Blossom has been known to be overly idealistic to the point of folly — hence his name — and routinely goes to great rhetorical lengths to defend his unrealistic points of view. Despite these flaws, Excessively Righteous Blossom is a lethal combatant and is always willing to face whatever dangers stand against him or his country. Unfortunately, he has no head for strategy.
Excessively Righteous Blossom has Essence 3 and stands seven feet tall, with a visage much like a human’s. In battle, he fights with a barbed moonsilver daiklave fitted with a mechanical seven-shot assault crossbow in the guard, triggered by a switch on the pommel. This weapon is called the Barisage Device.

Options and arrays
Some alchemical charms come with options chosen when they are purchased or have particular modules that can be installed. Excessively Righteous Blossom has made the following choices:
- Transitory Augmentation of Strength: has three versions in his panoply, one in each array and one for general use.
- Accelerated Response System: has five different versions in his panoply, three for parry, two for dodge. Each array (see below) contains one of each, while the remaining parry version is more general.
- Chemical Fog Generators are contained in each of his arrays, both of which contain the following submodules:
- Knockout Gas
- Tear Gas
- Nerve Gas
- Soul Gas
- Ignition Gas: This gas is invisible (so does not provide visibility penalties), but has a volatile smell (so causes coughing and choking as normal). Once deployed, it can also be easily ignited by a spark, open flame, etc. When this happens, any mundane flammable material within the gas cloud instantly catches fire. Those caught in the initial ignition are subjected to environmental damage as if standing in a bonfire for that turn (core.244).
- Strain Resistant Chassis Modification: All versions of this provide three -2 health levels.
- Subcutaneous Armor Plating: since one of his martial arts styles does not allow armor, each of the three versions of this charm are internal.

Charm activation tactics
Transitory Augmentation of Dexterity
Excessively Righteous Blossom will rarely use this charm directly. Instead, he will use its benefits to activate his anima power to buy Dexterity dice for two motes each. These dice can be used repeatedly for three turns.
Gear
Some kind of gas protection.
