Prerequisite Charms: Self as Cyclone Stance, Who Strikes the

Replace the text of the Charm with the following:
In all of Malfeas, among all races of demons spawned of every
Yozi, one prayer unites the best and worst of Hell in common
terror: “May the peace of Adorjan not fall upon me.” Their
desperate pleas are prayers to her, empowering her to bestow
her unique instructive kindness upon them. Upon activating
this Charm, the Infernal’s body achieves ascetic transcendence
as it dissolves like eroded stone. In the blink of an eye, the
Exalt reappears as a crimson-hued gale swirling with mirage
distortions, before coalescing into a perfect rendition of herself,
sculpted from violent, blood-hued winds. This form confers the
following benefits:
• A silent wind swirls around the Infernal, a killing cyclone
with only her in its eye. This wind is identical to the destructive
aura of Pellegrina’s Fury, but with a range of (Essence x 50)
yards. All benefits of Wind-Daughter’s Wrath that the warlock
has access to also apply to this effect. Mass units are especially
vulnerable to this wind, doubling the damage they take each
tick and the mote cost their commander must pay to protect
them.
• As a creature of living, semi-solid wind, she is immune to
mundane attacks, and reduces magical attacks against her to
minimum damage. Attacks that have no physical component
or that have an area of effect bypass this protection. Any equipment
she carries takes on the same wind-like nature, allowing
her to use it normally.
• She cannot be affected by clinches or Blockade Movement
actions unless they use magic that could reasonably constrain
the wind itself, nor can she take such actions herself. Any Poison,
Sickness, or Crippling that could not reasonably affect a
being whose body is living wind cannot affect her.
• She adds her (Essence + sum of all Virtues) to her dashing
speed. She must move at her maximum dash speed on each tick
or this Charm ends.
