'''Irresistible Silver Spirit''' 
'''Cost: ''' 5 motes, 1 willpower 
'''Duration: ''' One Task 
'''Type: ''' Reflexive 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 2 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 2 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' None 
When a Lunar focus his efforts, he can accomplish great feats in molding people and cultures. Activating this Charm, the character's personality becomes attractive to those around her. People want to help her, the things she says make more sense and she seems very convincing, wether she acts outgoing and positive or distantly alluring.

When the character activates this Charm the player declares a single objective she can accomplish through the use of social prowess. While this Charm is active she adds one success to all Social rolls, increases her dice-adding limits to her Attribute+Essence and ignores all Fatigue penalties.

As long as this Charm is active the Lunar cannot perform non-Social actions, intent on pursuing her objective above all else. The Lunar may only perform non-Social actions or stop her pursuit for one action by spending 1 willpower for every such action - and even then those are made at a -2 penalty. This Charm ends when its objective is attained. Ending this Charm of one's own volition requires a Willpower roll with a difficulty equal to the Lunar's own Temperance - this roll can only be attempted once for every (6-the Lunar's Essence, minimum 1) Turns (or once per Scene per tasks of longer duration.)

This Charm is a ''Focus'' and is incompative with the activation of any other Focus-Type Charm.

'''Attention-Demanding Presence''' 
'''Cost: ''' 2 motes 
'''Duration: ''' Instant 
'''Type: ''' Reflexive 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 2 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 1 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' None 
Using this Charm, a Lunar can focus the attention of those in the immediate vicinity upon himself without speaking. Doing so requires a Appearance+Presence roll. All characters who can perceive her and whose Temperance is less than the number of successes rolled received the Essence-driven equivalent of a 'look at me'. Those subjects find their attention focused oon the Lunar and instinctively look into his eyes where possible. The Lunar may be specific on who gets the call. Targets with Essence higher than the Lunar's may resist those effect by spending 1 Willpower.

'''Perfect Shape Stance''' 
'''Cost: ''' 1 mote 
'''Duration: ''' Instant 
'''Type: ''' Reflexive 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 2 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 2 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Attention-Demanding Presence 
Changing her shape into something that catches the eye and endears the heart the Lunar increases her social pull with her looks alone even amidst the most delicate negotiations! Activating this Charm allows the Lunar to use her Appearance score for any and all Social rolls despite the Attribute that was to be used in it - as long as those affected this roll are able to see her.

'''Peacock Flare''' 
'''Cost: ''' 3 motes 
'''Duration: ''' Instant 
'''Type: ''' Supplemental 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 3 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 3 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Perfect Shape Stance 
Changing her shape for a moment in a flare of beateous wonder and color the Lunar distracts and awes an opponent into a defenseless target for attack! This Charm supplements a single close combat attack - the Lunar's opponent must suceed in a Temperance roll or halve all defensive pools against this attack. Blind opponents are unaffected by this Charm, although it happens too fast for one to turn his eyes - the obvious activation of a known Combo that includes this Charm allows the enemy this chance, however.

The Lunar can substitute her Dexterity for her Appearance when making this attack.

'''White Peacock Plumage''' 
'''Cost: ''' 6 motes, 1 willpower 
'''Duration: ''' One Scene 
'''Type: ''' Simple 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 5 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 4 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Peacock Flare 
With great feathers that reach to the sky and whose eyes entice even the most jaded soul the Lunar flares with a most perfect and resplendent form! All those who attempt to affect the Lunar physical or socially must roll Conviction unless she has acted first against them - and even if successful receive a penalty equal to the Lunar's Appearance score minus their Temperance score in dice. As a final benefit the Lunar can use her Appearance score instead of her Dexterity, Manipulation or Charisma scores when attacking in close combat or using Social abilities upon those who are able to see her magnificence.

Beings unable to appreciate beauty, such as automata, are immune to this Charm's effects.

White Peacock Plumage is a ''Gift'' that can be activated in tandem with a Hybrid Form with the commitment of 4 motes with the same effects.

'''Silent Speech Method''' 
'''Cost: ''' 2 motes 
'''Duration: ''' Instant 
'''Type: ''' Reflexive 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 3 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 2 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Attention-Demanding Presence 
With an endless syllabary of motions and minute changes to her shape the Lunar becomes able to communicate without words - her body language becomes as eloquent as her greatest speeches! Using this Charm the Lunar is able to intimidate, seduce, make new friends, poison the waters against someone present (by showing disdain towards this person with the barest motions) call attention to herself and even make simple arguments without a word. Those are rolled like any other Social rolls, although they cannot be heard and can scarcely be perceived.

Those not targeted by the speech but closely observing the Lunar roll a contest between their Perception+Socialize and the Lunar's Appearance+Socialize. If the Lunar succeeds in this roll the onlooker does not catch the subtle nuances of the Lunar's silent speech and remains oblivious to her conversation. This Charm is a ''Gift'' and can be activated in tandem with a Hybrid Form for the commitment of 2 to give its benefits to any Social action the Lunar wishes.

'''Moon-Siren Sonnet''' 
'''Cost: ''' 10 motes, 1 willpower 
'''Duration: ''' One Scene 
'''Type: ''' Simple 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 5 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 3 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Silent Speech Method 
The Full Moon draws the Wyld as Luna whispers to the dreams beyond Creation and brings them home. She shines the brightest as they come to her hallowed will! Becoming as Luna herself the Luna's mien shines in the brightest silver light as all that is dreams and chaos comes towards her unrelenting! Each turn all Mutated or Wyld beings who can perceive the Lunar must suceed in a Willpower roll at a Difficulty equal to the Lunar's Essence not to move all their movement pacing towards her. To attack the Moon-Chosen - or look at anything that is not her (thus taking all other actions as if blind) requires the expenditure of 1 willpower each turn.

Mutated and Wyld beings must suceed in a Conviction roll not to follow all orders given by the Lunar while in this state.

While standing in the Bordermarches or deeper in the Wyld the Lunar increases the Wyld-Depth of up to (her Permanent Essence rating x100 yards) by one. Thus Bordermarches become Middlemarches, and Middlemarches fade into the Deep Wyld. This lasts only as long as the Lunar stands on them - the deeper Wyld fades back into pure chaos once the Lunar departs.

'''Sand Denies Sea''' 
'''Cost: ''' 10 motes, 1 willpower 
'''Duration: ''' One Scene 
'''Type: ''' Simple 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 5 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 3 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Silent Speech Method 
The New Moon pulls the Wyld far away from Creation as Luna hides her face in disapproval of the Wyld dreams! Becoming as the New Moon the Lunar appears to vanish, her appearance clad in unnatural shadows and smiling like the end of all dreams. For the remainder of the Scene all Mutated and Wyld creatures able to perceive the Lunar double the distance they must traverse towards the her or her general vicinity. Their movement rating is doubled if they attempt to move away from her. At any time the Lunar can spend 1 Willpower as a Reflexive action to push a single Mutated or Wyld being she can perceive (her Essence x2) yards away from her - this can cancel physical actions such as close combat attacks. She also deals Aggravated damage in her close combat attacks against Wyld-spawned and Mutated beings - every fiber of their being attempts to break away from the Lunar.

The Lunar decreases the Wyld-Depth of the area up to (her Permanent Essence rating x100 yards) by one. Thus Bordermarches become Tainted Lands, and Middlemarches become mere Bordermarches. This lasts only as long as the Lunar stands on them - the Wyld-tides flood the area with chaos as soon as the Lunar departs.

'''Chaos-Shattering Reef''' 
'''Cost: ''' None 
'''Duration: ''' Permanent 
'''Type: ''' Special 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 5 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 4 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Sand Denies Sea 
Creation has great bullwarks against the chaotic tides from beyond. In nights of New Moon, they shine in silver. This Lunar who learns this Charm and enacts ''Sand Denies Sea'' creates a bullwark around herself - it is hard to move in all ways closer to her. All attacks made by Wyld-spawned or Mutated beings as far out as (the Lunar's Essence x10) yards have their total damage, after soak, halved (rounded down to a minimum of 0) - for it is as hard for them to strike as to swim upstream on the mightiest current.

'''Pied Piper Mien''' 
'''Cost: ''' 4 motes 
'''Duration: ''' Varies 
'''Type: ''' Simple 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 3 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 3 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Silent Speech Method 
The Lunar's allure is so that she draws others to follow her wherever she goes!

To activate this Charm the Lunar makes the ''Piper Roll'' - an Appearance+Performance roll at standard Difficulty. She begins to move, and all those able to see her (and who are not otherwise engaged on riveting or dangerous activities) who fail a Wits+Awareness roll with a Difficulty equal to the Lunar's successes in the Piper Roll must follow. Those who follow are oblivious to the world around them as if hypnotized, making the barest ammount of movement necessary to sidestep any and all obstacles in their path.

Distractions - such as someone who tries to wake them from their reverie, or the followers themselves being led into clear and iminent danger (such as being led to a cliff) prompt another roll from the follower at a cumulative -1 Difficulty, although successes will not accumulate between attempts. Any harm will bring them back to their senses.

Characters can always ignore this Charm if they spend a number of points of Willpower equal to the Lunar's Essence.

'''Graceful Butterfly Dance''' 
'''Cost: ''' 4 motes 
'''Duration: ''' Varies 
'''Type: ''' Simple 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 3 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 3 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Silent Speech Method 
Shifting her shape to Perfection the Lunar entrances all who gaze upon her form!

The Lunar makes an Appearance+Performance roll - if she achieves at least one success all those who can see her can do nothing else but to watch her and lose all awareness of their surroundings for as long as she mantains the Performance. All attacks made against those thus entranced are unexpected. The trance is broken if they are harmed in any way. At the moment the Lunar rolls and for every turn thereafter members of the audience who spend 1 willpower receive a Temperance+Essence roll - once they have accumulated enough successes they wake up from their reverie, although it is not immediatly obvious that magic has been used upon them.

'''Silver-Sealed Lips''' 
'''Cost: ''' 3 motes 
'''Duration: ''' Varies 
'''Type: ''' Reflexive 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 4 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 3 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Graceful Butterfly Dance 
Some men are cunning enough to pierce the veil and behold the Lunar's Tell, the anchor of their True Soul, and expose a Moonchild for what they truly are... but the Lunar's cunning allows her to silence even those with a most dangerous beguilement!

This Charm can be activated at the moment an opponent notices the Lunar's Tell and generates a Appearance+Socialize roll that has a Difficulty of the victim's Willpower score. If this roll is successful the Lunar silences this opponent with the feeling that he has discovered a delicious secret that would be ruined if it were tobe shared. Further, victims of this Charm need suceed a Temperance roll at Difficulty 2 to initiate any social action against the Lunar and double the willpower they must spend to resist any social pressure from the Lunar - they are enraptured by this beateous secret.

The victim can make a Temperance roll every dawn - as soon as he has accumulated as many successes in those rolls as the Lunar had in silencing him the effects of this Charm are broken and he becomes able to speak to all about what he has seen. Should one of those Temperance rolls be a botch the victim will be unable to roll again for an entire Lunar month however.

'''Ambrosial Radiance''' 
'''Cost: ''' 10 motes, 1+ Health Levels 
'''Duration: ''' Instant 
'''Type: ''' Simple 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 4 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 3 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Graceful Butterfly Dance 
Sometimes Gods exist to be convinced more than honored - and Luna's children know how to be ''quite'' persuasive!

The Spirit must behold the Lunar as she shifts her shape into a perfect nothing so much as pure Ambrosia for the barest of instants! This Charm generates a Prayer Roll of Appearance+Performance in a ritual that takes the Spirit's Essence rating in hours during which the Spirit must behold the Lunar's Ambrosial Radiance. If the Lunar has suceeded on the roll at the conclusion of the ritual she must spend Health Levels equal to the Essence of the Spirit as a gift of her own Exalted Essence and the Ambrosia her body now exists as!

The Spirit recovers its entire Willpower and Essence pools and recovers a number of Health Levels (even of Aggravated Damage) equal to the Lunar's Essence. This also increases the Spirit's wealth considerably in Heaven. The God who receives such a gift is indebted to the Lunar - it must fulfill one favor per three successes rolled past the Prayer Roll's Difficulty. This favor must fall under the auspices of the Lunar Phase this Charm is used in (a favor of War or Hunt would be asked during the Full Moon or a favor of mysteries or knowledge in the No Moon).

The Spirit has to fulfill the favor asked unless it involves spending irreplaceable resources or suffering permanent damage.

'''Ambrosial Light''' 
'''Cost: ''' None 
'''Duration: ''' Permanent 
'''Type: ''' Special 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 4 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 4 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Ambrosial Radiance 
The Ambrosia the Lunar turns into is so perfect it reaffirms and purifies the God - it is of Heaven and nowhere else.

This Charm enhances ''Ambrosial Radiance.'' When the God receives its benefits it is also cured of any curse, insanity, debility or trait loss brought by the Wyld, Malfeas or the Underworld as well as any other source not Celestial or Terrestrial in origin -- the God's Essence is purified in devouring the perfection of the Lunar's own.

'''Perfect Yasal Offensive''' 
'''Cost: ''' 10 motes, 1 Willpower, 1 Health Level 
'''Duration: ''' Indefinite 
'''Type: ''' Supplemental 
'''Minimum Appearance: ''' 5 
'''Minimum Essence: ''' 3 
'''Prerequisite Charms: ''' Ambrosial Radiance 
From the food of Gods to the prision of Gods. With a great feat of shapeshifting the Lunar transforms part of her body in translucent yellow gemstone and charges upon a God! The Lunar must touch a Spirit to use this Charm - either having it in a clinch or with an unarmed attack. The Lunar and the Spirit then start a Contest of Wills that works in the same manner as that required for summons - should the Spirit suceed pieces of broken yellow gemstone fall from the Lunar and nothing happens but should the Lunar suceed the Spirit is drawn to Yasal slivers grown from within the Lunar's own flesh!

The Yasal cannot hold Spirits with greater Essence than the Lunar's own but otherwise follows all the rules in ''Scavenger Sons'' page 47. The Yasal Crystal countaining the Spirit will appear on the Lunar's skin in any configuration the Lunar chooses - it can be broken off with a dice action and the loss of 1 lethal health level.
