The inspiration for this style was an image I found a while back (I don't know the original source, and so will refrain from posting it in case of copyright issues; just search synthesist summoner on Google Images, it should be on the second row, all the way to the right) and I used the Snake Style in the core book as a rough starting place. The weapons are cesti, fighting gauntlets, and smashfists

The Exalt adopts a stance that expresses his cruel dominance of all before him, and demonic illusions appear around his arms and face.
