Man is a social animal. Lunars come from man stock, and many inherit the pack sense and alpha drive of their totems. The leaders of barbarian people, these Lunars would often be as adept at manuvering through the depths of a noble's court.

Fearful Lunar Form

Mind Blanking Fear Technique
Cost: 6 motes, 1 Willpower
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Minimum Manipulation: 5
Minimum Essence: 3
Prerequisite Charms: Unspeakable Aura of Dread

Mind Blanking Fear Technique causes people to become so afraid they wipe their memories of the recent horror- even if it wasn't that horrific. It effects everyone who can see the Lunar. 
Compare the target's Willpower to the following chart, reducing it by one for every point of Permanent Essence the Lunar has more than them. They will remember the scene as follows
1 or less: No recollection. The entire scene is gone from them, as though they passed out; which they will do now.
2 - 3: Only the vaugest of recollections. The person will never voluntarily remember, and if questioned would only know it was horrible.
4: The person will never voluntarily remember, but if questioned will remember the scene overall relatively accurately- but omit the Lunar's presence entirely.
5: The person can voluntarily remember the scene, but the Lunar is still removed from it. However, they can pierce the fear enough to know they've forgotten... something!
6: The person can voluntarily remember the scene, and even have a vauge impression of the Lunar themself. If they see the Lunar again in the same form he wore then, he will remember the whole scene.
7 - 8: The person mostly remembers the scene, but cannot readily describe the Lunar beyond vauge generalities of height, color, claws, etc.
9+: The person remembers the scene exactly.

Brotherhood of Lake and River eliminated, as it steps too closely the Dragonblooded toes.
