Cost:10m
Target:Alchemical Exalt
Minimum Clarity:4

Ejecting one or more installed Charms with a loud, metallic click, a flash of light and a small blast of steam, this protocol allows the weaver to send those charms through Elsewhere to their Vats, and summon replacement charms. When this protocol is activated, the Alchemical chooses any number of their installed charms to remove, these charms are instantly removed and sent back to the vats. The alchemical also chooses which replacement charms they wish to put in the vacated slots. The Design Weavers take those charms from the vats, and spend (X hours per charm) preparing them to be remotely implanted in the Alchemical. All the charms summoned by one use must be made ready before any can be installed.

When the charms are ready (which the Alchemical is made aware of) it is simply a Speed 7, DV -2 miscellaneous action to have them installed, which happens in a great crackling of essence, as the alchemical's body reconfigures itself around its new additions.

The character loses access to all the capabilities of the charms they have ejected, and does not gain access to those of the summoned charms until they are installed, but other than this, their capabilities remain the same.
