Performance is in The Musician.

----------
Songs of the Cerulean Lute 
Cost: 6m; Mins: Performance 3, Essence 2; Type: Simple 
Keywords: Social 
Duration: One scene 
Prerequisite Charms: Any Performance Excellency

Music is a source of such support and community for people. Spinning threads of essence into their music those around them can not help but find themselves a little bit more distracted and unable to focus on the conversations around them. This distraction increases the MDVs of those who hear her performance by half her Essence for the rest of the scene.
-------------
Fallen Barriers Songs 
Cost: 5m; Mins: Performance 4, Essence 2; Type: Supplemental 
Keywords: Combo-OK, Social 
Duration: One scene 
Prerequisite Charms: Any Performance Excellency

In Heaven and Hell there are no better parties then those hosted by the Viziers. People are friendly and more willing to mingle and build new friendships and even more. This charm supplements a performance roll. Anyone with an MDV lower then the rolled successes has their Temperance reduced to 1. Furthermore any social botches made by those affected by this are treated as if they were 0 successes instead. Exalted whose Great Curse is tied to Temperance can not have their temperance reduced past 3.
----------
Purity Performance Prana 
Cost: 5m, 1wp; Mins: Performance 4, Essence 3; Type: Simple 
Keywords: Combo-OK 
Duration: Instant 
Prerequisite Charms: Songs of the Cerulean Lute

Health is one of the aspects most important to people. There are even sayings to that effect. Not surprising then that the Vizier's try to foster phyiscal health when they can and stymie the disruptive effects of disease. Those who hear this song, even for a moment, find themselves strengthened against disease for the next month. For those people reduce by one point the ratings of any disease they encounters Virulence, Morbidity, Difficulty to Treat and Treated Morbidity. A person exposed to the plague still faces a great challange but at least their chances are improved.
----------
Ecstatic Gathering Technique 
Cost: 6m; Mins: Performance 4, Essence 3; Type: Simple 
Keywords: Combo-OK, Compulsion, Emotion 
Duration: One scene 
Prerequisite Charms: Fallen Barriers Songs

To help ensure happiness the Vizier's must sometimes induce others into activities their mood would prevent. The Sidereal makes a (Charisma or Manipulation + Performance) roll. Anyone with a MDV lower then the rolled successes suffers a compulsion to gather up with those around and have an impromptue party or celebration. They also fall under an Emotion effect which makes them happy and enjoy the party. This charm can not affect a magnitude of people larger then the Sidereal's Essence. Resisting this charm costs 1 willpower. When the scene is over the Eompulsion and Emotion effect fade but no matter what their situation is now at least they have one more good memory to help get them through it.
-----------
Festival Gathering Method 
Cost: -(+1wp); Mins: Performance 5, Essence 3; Type: Permanent 
Keywords: Compulsion 
Duration: Permanent 
Prerequisite Charms: Ecstatic Gathering Technique

The best parties are large parties. Or at least those who know this charm would have you believe. This charm enhances its prerequisite so that if there could be more people affected by the performance they are gathered to attend. This is within reason of course. If the town only has 20 people in it you can't gather in another hundred from the countryside.
-------------
Saga of the Wise Sage Technique 
Cost: 10m, 1wp; Mins: Performance 5, Essence 4; Type: Simple 
Keywords: Combo-Basic, Social 
Duration: Instant 
Prerequisite Charms: Ecstatic Gathering Technique

It is a bit shameful to admit but not all trust the Viziers. Why they would not trust those who can see the plans for Creation and want to see the world continue is beyond even the wisest of them and so sometimes that trust must be helped along. This charm takes the form of a performance of any kind from an impromptu speach to dancing in the market square. At the completion of it she rolls (Charisma or Manipulation + Performance) and compares that to the MDV of those listening. Those with a lower MDV instantly develop a full strength intimacy of Trust to the Sidereal(or at least her resplendant destiny) unless they spend 3 willpower to resist the effect.
----------
Twisted Fate Transference Performance 
Cost: 8m; Mins: Performance 4, Essence 3, House of Serenity 3; Type: Supplemental 
Keywords: College, Combo-OK, Sickness, Social 
Duration: Essence days 
Prerequisite Charms: Ecstatic Gathering Technique

By the hand of Venus does the world know things like health of the mind. Some who go against the plan for Creation must be punished. This charm enhances a performance roll though it only targets a single person. The Sidereal rolls their Manipulation + Performance and if they roll more successes then the targets MDV the target suffers a Sickness effect. The Sickness effect is that their lowest non-primary virtues(random in case of ties) now counts as if it were three for actions that require virtue checks. Furthermore they get a bonus success on all such rolls.

This improved virtue does not count for virtue channelling however. A target with all their virtues at 3 or more still has one of their non-primary ones get a bonus success on all virtue checks with it. Targets who can gain limit for going against their virtues will gain limit for going against the virtue this charm effects.
--------------
Efficaous Worshipping Method 
Cost: 5m; Mins: Performance 5, Essence 3; Type: Supplemental 
Keywords: Combo-OK, Social 
Duration: Instant 
Prerequisite Charms: Songs of the Cerulean Lute

While as Exalted the Sidereals are Princes of the Earth its also quite true that with the Loom of Fate having been transfered to Yu-Shan they spend far more time there then they do outside of Heaven. Unsurprisingly they are masters of the fine art of appeasement to the Gods. When making a prayer roll to a God if the Sidereal's prayer matches well to that gods Motivation or domain double the number of successes rolled.

== Comments ==

Ah, where to begin...
Songs of the Cerulean Lute seems sort of awkward in that it's a charm designed to ... stop social combat. Which pretty much will probably lead to Join Battle. And so its' purpose can be pretty well replicated by saying "No", spending 1wp, and punching the socialite in the face. Also, its' combat utility is similarly limited by making it harder to inflict MDV-targetting effects as well. 
Fallen Barriers Songs should probably have a disclaimer in that it cannot affect anyone whose Curse is tied to Temperance. 
Purity Performance Prana seems like you're trying to duplicate the "Fate Stuff is Weird" in your "Not Fateful" set. Also, only affects four specific nonmagical diseases in a relatively minor way? ...glad it's not required for any other charms... 
Festival Gathering Method's cost should be -- (+1wp), standard permanent charm nomenclature. 
Saga of the Wise Sage Technique should probably have the potential to resist acquiring the intimacy, spending 1wp most likely. 
Twisted Fate Etc appears to basically be able to make any and all virtues primary for Limit, which similarly works oddly with the great curse.

Any social defense charm can be replicated by punching the talker in the face. Songs of the Cerulean Lute has its uses such as using it on a group before they actually get to talking with others, where only they benifit of its effects. Good catch on Fallen Barriers Songs. You misunderstand Purity Performance Prana, it affects all diseases. It merely reduces the Virulunce, Morbidity, Difficulty to Treat and Treated Morbidity. Tweaked to make that more clear and Serenity is about health so I thought it fit. Fixed Festival Gathering and Saga of the Wise. Remember for Twisted Fate you only get limit by resisting your primary virtue, not any virtue 3 or higher. -BogMod
