The Solar Exalted were masters of disguise, stealing even their target's memories. This charm is a permanent charm, permanently enhancing the capabilities of the Charm "Perfect Mirror". When activating Perfect Mirror, the Solar may committ an additional 3 motes of essence. If she does so, she acquires access to the target's incidental memories (names, passwords, etc.). Additionally, she may make a reflexive Wits + Larceny roll, acquiring a number of Ability points equal to the number of successes rolled. This ability points may be applied to the target's favoured skill. If the target does not possess a favoured skill, this ability cannot be used.

Permanent
Keywords: None
Prerequisites: Perfect Mirror
Often, the Solar Exalted were called upon to go undercover for months, even years at a time, without break. This charm enhances Solar disguise-based Larceny charms, such as "Perfect Mirror". These charms change their duration to "Indefinite", and remain active for as long as the Solar has committed the Essence needed to activate them.

Instant/Reflexive
Keywords: Combo-OK
Prerequisites: Stealing From Plain Sight Spirit
The Lawgivers were the final arbiters of ownership, and the spirits of objects still bow to their will. When this charm is activated, the Solar is considered to "own" any object that he just stole - be it an artifact, a boat, or something else entirely - per the Ownership rules in the Exalted corebook on page 238. If the object is an artifact that requires a commitment of Essence, the Solar may instantly commit that essence to attune to the object.
