Poison Charms. A Lunar is capable of self-manufacturing a vast array of toxic substances. They have a library of them, similiar to their Heart's Blood. It includes the venom of any poisonous creature they can assume the form of, as well as any poisons they have ingested and survived through.
Some Lunars will intentionally craft various drugs and venoms and experiment upon themselves. Creating a poison from scratch requires you to spend an experience point, then make a Perception + Survival roll to gather the ingrediants, and an Intelligence + Medicine roll to actually make the poison. The total successes provided may be distributed to build the poison as follows:
0 for Difficulty 1 (on the Stamina + Resistance roll)
1 for Difficulty 2
2 for Difficulty 3
4 for Difficulty 4
6 for Difficulty 5
1 per two levels of Bashing damage on failure.
1 per level of Lethal damage on failure.
3 per level of Aggravated damage on failure.
Divide the Failure damage by 3 and round down for the successful damage.
1 per two hours the poison lasts.
1 per -2 penalty it imposes while it lasts.
Special effects, such as sleeping poison, attribute damage, or drug-like addictive or hallucinogenic qualities should be negiotated on a case by case basis, and usually take between one and three successes to add.

When using these Charms, you must specify which poison you're using. The original vector of entry for the poison is irrelevant, covered by the magic of the Charm.
