The four standard charms are slightly different for Dodge and thus appear below.

Graceful Bishonen Dodge

• Cost: 1 mote / 2 dice
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Re-Fun
• Minimum Ability: 1
• Minimum Moe: 1
• Prerequisite Charms: None

Add two dice for every mote spent to any pool of this Ability, to a maximum of the Bishonen's Ability + Attribute. This can be used to build a dodge pool from nothing.

Superior Bishonen Dodge

• Cost: 6 motes
• Duration: One Scene
• Type: Speech
• Minimum Ability: 2
• Minimum Moe: 2
• Prerequisite Charms: Graceful Bishonen Dodge

The Bishnonen adds his or her Moe to all Dodge dice pools for the scene, within the normal Bishonen dice adder limits. This also effectively grants a reflexive dodge against all attacks with a number of dice equal to your Moe.

Unfailing Bishonen Dodge

• Cost: 2 motes, 1 WP
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Subtle/Mental
• Minimum Ability: 3
• Minimum Moe: 3
• Prerequisite Charms: Superior Bishonen Dodge

The Bishonen automatically dodges any attack, whether or not he is aware of it. This is a perfect defense.

Invariant Bishonen Excellence of Dodge

• Cost: 1 mote / die, 1 WP
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Subtle/Mental
• Minimum Ability: 4
• Minimum Moe: 4
• Prerequisite Charms: Unfailing Bishonen Dodge

The Bishonen adds 1 die to all Dodge pools for a scene for every 2 motes spent; he can add up to his Dodge + Attribute to any given pool. This generates a reflexive dodge against all attacks equal to the number of dice bought, if he doesn't chose to use a dodge action of some kind.

Instinctual Avoidance

• Cost: 2 motes
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Re-Fun
• Minimum Dodge: 3
• Minimum Moe: 2
• Prerequisite Charms: Graceful Bishonen Dodge

Being hit is never elegant; the Bishonen instinctually avoids stepping where he will be hit. This grants a free Dex + Dodge defense against an incoming attack you are aware of. This can be declared after the foe has already rolled to hit, but always before damage is rolled.

Too Pretty to Hit

• Cost: 6 motes
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Re-Fun
• Minimum Dodge: 4
• Minimum Moe: 2
• Prerequisite Charms: Instinctual Avoidance

As your foe's assault heads for you, your eyes get really big and pouty and you ask them pretty-please not to hit you and you are just too cute for them to finish the job. This may be declared after your foe rolls to hit, but before damage. This automatically dodges any attack which you are aware of.

Invincible Wall of Brooding

• Cost: 3 motes, 1 WP
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Re-Fun
• Minimum Dodge: 5
• Minimum Moe: 2
• Prerequisite Charms: Instinctual Avoidance

When you sink into a cloud of self-doubt and self-pity, even weapons don't want to meet you. You gain a full dicepool dodge against all attacks you can perceive.

All-Evading Stance

• Cost: 5 motes, 1 WP
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Speech
• Minimum Dodge: 5
• Minimum Moe: 3
• Prerequisite Charms: Invincible Wall of Brooding, Avoiding the Unobserved

Tied into the fundamental essence flows of the universe, you dodge every possible threat, even if you don't know it's coming. You receive a reflexive dodge against every single dodgeable attack on you at your full dice pool.

Can't Touch This

• Cost: 9 motes, 1 WP
• Duration: One Scene
• Type: Speech
• Minimum Dodge: 5
• Minimum Moe: 4
• Prerequisite Charms: All-Evading Stance, Run Before the Tide

You become so supremely nimble that you can dodge even the undodgeable, receiving a full reflexive dodge against all attacks, even undodgeable ones and ones you don't notice. Even if you pass out. Even if you DIE. Your corpse KEEPS ON DODGING LIKE A DODGING MACHINE. It's just that good.

Pre-Emptive Defense

• Cost: 1 mote
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Re-Fun
• Minimum Dodge: 2
• Minimum Moe: 1

Anticipating trouble before it happens, you strive to not be around for it. This charm must be declared before a foe rolls to hit, and allows a dodge at full dice pool.

Avoiding the Unobserved

• Cost: 3 motes
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Re-Fun
• Minimum Dodge: 3
• Minimum Moe: 3
• Prerequisite Charms: Pre-Emptive Defense

You have such keen anticipation of danger, you avoid attacks you can't even see. This charm automatically kicks in when you are attacked by surprise, allowing a full dice pool dodge against an attack you can't even perceive.

Run Before the Tide

• Cost: 3 motes
• Duration: Instant
• Type: Re-Fun
• Minimum Dodge: 3
