Charge is a keyword that can be found on Creatures in the Elder Scrolls Legends that first appeared in the Core Set. Other creatures must wait a turn before they can attack, creatures with Charge can attack the turn they are summoned.
This allows creatures with Charge to have an immediate impact on the board, before the opponent can react with Actions or creatures with Guard. This can be used to take back the control of the Field Lane or push for the last bit of damage to win the match. Charge works well together with Lethal to easily destroy enemy creatures. Charge is predominantly associated with Strength and Agility.

Synergies[edit]
- Cover: When played in the Shadow Lane, Charge creatures get Cover like all other creatures. However, when they attack that same turn, they will still lose it.
- Unsummon: Charge creatures can attack immediately again after being Unsummoned and played during the same turn.

Notes[edit]
- Charge is the only keyword without any visual indicator. This can make it hard to keep track of when the keyword gets stolen with cards like Penitus Oculatus Agent or Ahnassi.
- A complete list of cards with Charge can be found in the Legends-Cards-Creature with Charge category.
