* '''Focus'''<br>Many charms are ''Focus'' and allow the Lunar to become single-minded (in a berserker state, in battle) and receive great benefits until their given task is completed. Those are incompatible with each other but always allow the Lunar one automatic success in all required tasks and increase the dice-adding limits by the Lunar's Essence - although it gives penalties to do any action that falls outside of the focus' instinctual purview.

* '''Kin'''<br>Those whose Essence is mingled with the Lunar's. That require the mingle their Essence with the Lunar - that mingle may require one to be a ''Sibling'' from [[SilverMasks/Pack|Brotherhood of Lake and RIver]] a ''Charge'' from [[SilverMasks/Protector|Eternal Eclipse Guardian]] or the Lunar's own Familiar. Other effects may make another Kin to the Lunar at the Storyteller's discretion.
