Lock-Opening Touch

Mortal thieves must struggle with lockpicks and thieves’ tools. The Exalted may use Essence. This Charm enhances a miscellaneous action to pick a lock. It makes success automatic even if the character has no tools (though such use makes the Charm Obvious). If this effect is opposed by another Charm or magical effect, add the character’s Essence in automatic successes to the (Dexterity + Larceny) roll to oppose the rival magic.
