An image of the Lunar's tattoos are pulled from the body.  The Lunar then shapes and grows the image until it forms a diameter 10 circle, which must be "anchored" on a person or object.  The circle remains centered on the object as long as the Lunar commits Essence to the Charm.  The area within the circle is immune to being reshaped by the Wyld.

The Lunar stares at the howling teeth of the Wyld - and howls back.  The Lunar may shape the Wyld to his wishes, as one of the Fair Folk might

+

If you're using Shaping Combat, this is a Shaping action.  Substitue a Virtue for a Grace, and add the Lunar's Essence in bonus dice.  The Lunar may use this Charm only once per scene.  

+

If you're not using Shaping Combat, treat this as similiar to the Solar Charm Wyld Shaping Technique.  Except, roll the Lunar's Virtue+Ability+Essence, with Virtue and ability being determined roughly by the effect desired.  Objects created with this Charm are not real and may not be taken out of the Wyld.  Fair Folk may counter the effects of this Charm with their own strange magic.

+

The Lunar draws some blood forth from his body and gives it to another to drink.  Most Lunars spit the blood up from their mouths, but some perfer to cut themselves.  The recipient converts all Lethal wounds to bashing.  For the next 24 hours, they may make rolls to resist disease and infection using the Lunar's Stamina+Resistance pool.  Lunar's may not benefit from this Charm.

The Lunar carves off a piece of his flesh.  The person who consumes this meal instantly heals up to the Lunar's Essence worth of health levels of any type and recovers one point of temporary willpower.  If they are an Essence Channeler, they recover 10 motes of Essence.  If they are a Fair Folk, they gain one Gossamer.  The meal stays good until the Lunar ceases to commit Essence and health to the Charm.  Lunars may not benefit from this Charm.

<b><i>Wearing the Skins of the Fallen</i></b>

<b><i>Heart Drinking Kiss</i></b>

+

 <b>Cost: 5 Motes</b> 

+

 <b>Duration: Instant</b> 

+

 <b>Type: Simple</b>

 <b>Min. Ability: 5</b>

 <b>Min Essence: 3</b> 

+

 <b>Prereqs: Wearing the Skins of the Fallen</b> 

+

The Lunar drinks blood and eats flesh directly from the beating Heart of an Exalt.  By ancient agreement among the Incarna, this can only be done with the consent of the Exalt involved.  This adds the Exalt to the Lunar's library of forms.  The Exalt who sacrifices a piece of his heart survives the process, but takes three levels of aggravated damage.  The Lunar's physical form and anima banner warp to conform to their new shape.  The Lunar gains the Exalt's minor Anima powers (such as telling time), but not the Caste specific power.  This effect ends if the Lunar's Anima banner flares in the 7+ range.

+

A Lunar may only have one Exalt in their library of forms at any one time.  Removing an Exalt currently in their library costs 3 experience points.

=== Comments ===

What happens when the lunar eats the heart and drinks the blood of... say a solar whose attuned to a gem of incomparable wellness? Would the donor in this case be alive after this act? And if so, would the lunar be able to put the skin of the donor exalt on?<br><br>Also, bear in mind that the exalts DO have a limit on their abilities/attributes, until they hit essence 5+. Ie. no going over 5 unless you've got some funky merit in place. ~ [[Haku]]

:Wow, talk about fast service =P  I forgot to include one thing - Heart Drinking Kiss doesn't kill the "donor".  Exalts are tough, after all.  Under this version of Lunars, Attributes may go as high as 7 by default.  Its a feature of being a HumbleLunar.  I'm not sure I like this.  But, Attribute based trees don't make much sense when Attribues run from 1 to 5 - cuz everyone has at least Attribue 2 or so.  I also like it because it puts Lunars in line with Dragon Blood in terms of die adders.  (since DB include specialties.) -MeiRen

+

:Um....yeah, so it occured to me that having Attributes above 5 really didn't work.  I love the idea, it does some cool things, but I think it breaks a rule of Exalted, so..... -MeiRen

+

::Better fast service then no service, yes? ^_- In any event, you could allow Lunars to have a merit or a charm that unlocks their physical ability, up to say... 5 + essence. As for not killing the donor, that's a good thing, I suppose... but then, it seems a tad odd that said exalt doesn't die. I think it's one of those situation where a fellow exalt is dying and gives permission to drink of his blood and eat of his heart, to carry on his quest/mission in his name... etc. ~ [[Haku]]

:::It was intended to be something you do to your Solar spouse, so you can be their body double.  (or just have kinky sex.)  Doing it to an Exalt who is dying for other reasons would be cool too though. -MeiRen
