| − | Let the Unconquered Sun fight by virtue and honor, Mars is the Goddess of War in all its forms and is not above cunning tricks to win a fight. Placing a well placed head blow the Sidereal can momentarily dim the vision of an enemy enough that they can not tell friend from foe. This charm generates an attack that has effects if it should damage a target. If someone damaged by this charm does not spend a Speed 5, DV -2 unflurryable action clearning their eyes on their next action their next attack will be against another target of the Sidereal's choosing within range. If the Vizier doesn't trust their skill enough to cut their enemy they can cut themselves and flick their own blood and essence at the enemies face. This changes the cost of the charm to 5m, 1lhl and renders the attack non-damaging and unblockable but in all other ways the same.

| − | Mars trains with all weapons so she might know in its completeness how each weapon will work in an engagement. Her Chosen do well to emulate this philosophy. For every mote the Sidereal commits she counts as if she had a dot in a Melee specialty towards a single weapon. As usual she can get no more dice from specialties then the normal limits for any roll. These dice do not count as dice added from charms.

| − | This charm supplements an attack againgst a dematerialized target. It allows them to be hit though it provides no ability to sense them. On a successful damaging strike the Vizier may roll (Melee + House of Battles + damage inflicted) against a difficulty equal to the dematerialized being's essence. Success means that the creature materializes for no cost and must stay materialized for the scene. This can also be used against a willing target, in which case the Difficulty is 1 and the Sidereal can do a pulled blow to do no damage.
