Green Flame Rising (Exalted vs Dresden Files)

Ah, I should make it more clear then! It was mostly cosmetic, in that it spits out green fire from the talepipe like some theatrical bikes will do normal fire. Sorta a theme. I'll edit that to make it more clear.
I do like the idea.

I'd argue that manipulating our Charms in any way (by making walking-speed Charms apply to it) is stretching things out quite a bit.
It would propably easier from our side to invent a variant on an existing Charm than to get a gadget to manipulate the expression of our power.
If it was a larger vehicle I would veto it, but just a bike with one passenger would I think be more of a boon than a detriment. As strong as Molly is you could always just pick up that one other person than then run with the mobility charm.
Although I guess I should make it clear, any mobility charms will not be able to make the bike any faster than you would be on foot even though it has a higher base speed.

-[X] This man is a talker. Get him talking. Get him ranting. There's nothing so chatty as a man who wants to explain in detail why you're wrong. If you get him detailing what is going on you should be able to pick some clues from it all, or at least give you leads.

So, Like this?
The Dancing Fury (***)
This monstrous bike is a conglomerate of custom built parts and salvaged components melded into a coherent and beautiful black bike that looks both menacing and enchanting at the same time. It is colored a dark black on the majority of it, but has green highlights, with the occasional brass decorations here and there for extra flare. It is designed to be a good all-rounder, capable of long or short trips, and has a very high top speed while being nimble as well. If there's a flaw it's that it requires only the highest grade gasoline to work, though being a custom creation it also requires special maintenance.
Naturally as a creation of an exalted it has more magical features as well. They are as follows.
1) Charms specifically useful for mobility purposes can effect this creation as well. This cannot make the bike any faster than your top speed using those charms on foot, but all other effects will apply.
2) The rider and one passenger can use their defensive skills for each other so long as they are on the same bike.
3) Theoretically the bike can be used as a weapon, either running someone over, or using it as a bludgeon. This will not damage the creation.
4) It spits green fire out of the tailpipes in an impressive, if harmless display of pyrotechnics on command.
Yeah this works exactly.
If you want the flames to do lethal damage that would be one more dot. If for some reason you want the agg of radioactive hatefire that is two more dots and the very edge of what an Exalted can do with the thin Essence of this age
[X] A different kind of intimidation for a different kind of man (Charisma + Occult)
-[X] Scoff at the ignorance of a Necromancer thinking that he deserves rest in death. You can promise him a life after death, though it will not be a pleasant one. Describe the darkness and cold of Kakuri while leaning close enough that he can feel the chill of your body.
-[X] Do directly state that you can send him there, just in case he mistakes you for some kind of fey and thinks you can't lie.
It would be easy for him to think that Molly is a particularly ugly winter Sidhe.

in v20, injury reduces dice numbers, not difficulty.

I mean that'd be a lie we can definitely find a work around to send them there relatively soon though we can just tell our dad we wouldn't send them there. We definitely could though.
Oh... that makes you even stronger. 'Oh no I don't have 4 of my 18 dice, whatever shall I do?'
Cha+ Occult as we have 5 Occult.

It fits the theme.Oh... that makes you even stronger. 'Oh no I don't have 4 of my 18 dice, whatever shall I do?'
We can fight efficiently until we drop dead.
And then once more.

that swings both ways though. if we dont 1 shot an enemy, they still get more time to fight back. that said, here is the relevant excerpt from the rule book:Oh... that makes you even stronger. 'Oh no I don't have 4 of my 18 dice, whatever shall I do?'
As your character gets more and more battered, it's increasingly difficult for him to perform even the simplest of tasks. The dice penalty is subtracted from your dice pool for every action (except reflexive actions such as soak) until the wound heals.

Very nice.

Charisma + Occult is 8 dice by itself and we have a speciality in Kakuri @DragonParadox Does that apply here?
Manipulation + Empathy is 6 dice.
Edit: With speciality that's 9.

It would mean spending 12 XP on a curse that does nothing but prevent healing and send souls to Kakuri.
I think we have several higher priorities.

Well, we aren't lying per se, even if we were Fae.
We COULD theoretically keep him prisoner until we get the Curse and use it on him.
It says nothing about what we will do or are likely to do.

I don't suppose it would be useful to thoroughly explain how real Hell is and how very real the peril is for him?

in fairness we could probably find an occult work around eventually. one which isn't really instant.
