== Charisma Hybrid Charms ==

Lunars don't just shape their bodies; they also shape the souls of those around them. With their Charisma Charms, they shape the ways that people react to them, exerting their superhuman power on the minds of those who surround them. These Charms are usually Obvious by nature, simply because anyone encountering the Lunar can feel these Charms at work, but more subtle effects can easily go unnoticed.

=== Authority Charms ===

Alpha Wolf Method
Cost: 4 motes Mins: Charisma 3, Essence 1Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Hybrid, Obvious, Social, Emotion
Duration: Indefinate
Prerequisites: Charisma Enduring
The character makes of herself a true pack leader, someone that people are reluctant to challenge. Anyone with a Valor + Essence less than or equal to the character's Charisma is at -2 dice to all attempts to challenge or attack the Lunar. Characters fighting for a cause may choose to substitute their Conviction for their Valor if they must oppose the Lunar for that cause.

Terrible Beast Visage
Cost: 5 motes Mins: Charisma 3, Essence 2Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Hybrid, Obvious, Emotion
Duration: Indefinate
Prerequisites: Alpha Wolf Method
The character gains the ability to pull up a mask of terror to turn people's fears against them. Anyone looking at the Lunar sees their worst fears reflected in the shadows and impressions of the Lunar's body. Any character who wishes to stand against the Lunar must succeed at a Willpower roll at a difficulty of the Lunar's Essence, or else spend two points of Willpower to ignore the effect for the scene; this increases an Exalt's Limit track.

Inspiring Lion's Mane
Cost: 6 motes Mins: Charisma 4, Essence 2Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Hybrid, Obvious, Emotion
Duration: Indefinate
Prerequisites: Alpha Wolf Method
A true leader inspires his followers to greater feats and pushes them to their limits and beyond. Anyone who considers themselves a follower of the Lunar, while in his presence, has +1 to both his permanent and temporary Willpower for the duration of each scene that they remain in the Lunar's presence. The Willpower recovers at the start of each scene.

Dominance Assertion Techniques
Cost: 6 motes Mins: Charisma 4, Essence 3Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Hybrid, Obvious, Illusion
Duration: Indefinate
Prerequisites: Alpha Wolf Method
The assertion of power can be as intimidating as power itself. Using this Charm, a Lunar relies on the image of her strength to carry her way, as the weaknesses of others let them see the Lunar as stronger and braver than ever. Anyone attacked by the Lunar may not raise their PDV or DDV higher than their MDV by any means short of a perfect defense.

=== Interaction Charms ===

Cheerful Pet Countenance
Cost: 4 motes Mins: Charisma 2, Essence 1Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Hybrid, Social
Duration: Indefinate
Prerequisites: Charisma Enduring
The Lunar simply fits in wherever she goes; doors are opened to her, and strangers welcome her as though she were a member of the family. All Social penalties due to being a foreigner, stranger, or newcomer are cancelled while this Charm is in effect, and anyone who spends at least three scenes interacting with a Lunar who is under the effects of this Charm will continue to think of them as someone familiar even after the Charm ends.

Hummingbird's Dialogue
Cost: 5 motes Mins: Charisma 3, Essence 3Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Hybrid, Social
Duration: Indefinate
Prerequisites: Cheerful Pet Countenance
Sometimes, it is better to wear an opponent away with repeated requests than to make a single request more powerful. With this Charm active, the Speed of all the character's Social Attacks are reduced by 1.

Honest Oxen Mien
Cost: 4 motes Mins: Charisma 3, Essence 2Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Hybrid, Social
Duration: Indefinate
Prerequisites: Cheerful Pet Countenance
Some people are simply trustworthy. By acting in accordance with her straightforwards nature, the Lunar finds a way to connect with that part of others. All rolls to convince others that she is telling the truth or that she can be trusted are considered to be automatically successful as long as she is and can; in Social Combat, the opponent must roll Willpower automatically. However, all attempts at deception or betrayal are at +2 difficulty, and increase Limit by 1.

Peacock's Plumage
Cost: 3 motes Mins: Charisma 3, Essence 2Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Hybrid, Social, Emotion
Duration: Indefinate
Prerequisites: Cheerful Pet Countenance
The Lunar becomes a paragon of sexuality, able to attract almost anyone she chooses. The character automatically converts her Charisma into automatic successes on all seduction attempts. However, the Temperance of everyone who spends more than a few seconds talking with or watching her is reduced by 1 for the purposes of sexual attraction to her; this can cause serious problems at times, as most people make fools of themselves trying to impress the character, and dangerous people will single her out as a target.

Innocent Cub Appearance
Cost: 5 motes Mins: Charisma 4, Essence 3Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Hybrid, Social, Emotion
Duration: Indefinate
Prerequisites: Cheerful Pet Countenance
Strength can be concealed as easily as shown, and a true Lunar understands this. With this Charm active, the Lunar appears to be harmless. Anyone who wishes to attack or harm her, physical or emotionally, must first spend a point of Willpower AND fail a Compassion roll. This Charm fails automatically if the character is demonstrating hostile intent or attempting to assert authority. If part of a Hybrid Combo, only this Charm is cancelled under such circumstances; the rest remain active as normal.

== Comments ==
Very nice. This is going quite well. Few specific comments:

Terrible Beast Visage: I believe the words you are looking for are "unatural mental influence"

Peacock's Plumage: It's not clear how much interaction is needed for the Temperence reducing effect. Turning all charisma dice to successes is incredibly powerful. It feels more like instant charm though. Perhaps increasing effective appearance(+2/3) instead?
: Ehn, the instant Terrestrial version adds five dice for 1 mote. I will clear up the interacting thing a bit; the idea of the Charm is that it's a bit of a double-edged sword. :) - FrivYeti

Harmless Kitten Defense: Intersting. Hate the name though. It also seems to have the wrong pre-req
-FlowsLikeBits
: How about Fawn Eyes defense? ;) The prereq is a holdover from me shuffling the charm names to sound more like, you know, animal stuff. - FrivYeti
::Personally, I'd call it something like Calming Pheromones or something the seems less silly to me. Your call though. -FlowsLikeBits
::: Ehn, the whole idea is literally based around pulling on people's protective parent-instincts. But I'll downgrade the cute factor a bit for ya. - FrivYeti
