Mind-Blanking Fear Technique
Cost: 6 motes, 1 willpower
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Minimum Charisma: 3
Minimum Essence: 3
Prerequisite Charms: Perfect Fear Scent
The Lunar's force of personality is great, and when forcefully applied, may break the minds of his lessers. The Lunar alters something about him to be so terrible that he forces the mind of his opponents to deny anything just seen, their memories muddled by a vague, yet overwhelming recollection of utter fear. The Lunar rolls Strength or Charisma+Presence, with a difficulty equal to the victim's Willpower. If successful, the Lunar makes the memory fade away. They can recall it dimly by spending 1 willpower and rolling their willpower against the Lunar's Essence. Success allows them to recall vague remembrance.

Terrifying Lunar Truth
Cost: 3 motes
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Minimum Charisma: 4
Minimum Essence: 3
Prerequisite Charms: Mind-Blanking Fear Technique
Some are perceptive enough to witness a Lunar's Tell. They pierce the veil of the Lunar's illusion and shapeshifting and see the anchor of their True Soul... but powerful Lunars know how to silence those with their might. The Lunar's Tell becomes the discovery of something terrible, and the Lunar's murderous gaze is enough to ensure the silence of any creature. When an opponent notices her Tell, the Lunar may activate this Charm and roll her Strength or Charisma+Essence in a constested roll against the opponent's Willpower. If the Lunar wins, the opponent will not tell anyone of her Tell. He may only watch the Lunar in dread needing to succeed in a Valor roll at difficulty 2 to initiate any physical action against the Lunar, and having a hard time resisting the Lunar's intimidation attempts. The opponent makes a new Valor roll every dawn, and when he achieves as many successes as the Lunar's success margin on the contest, he is free from the effects of this Charm, able to tell anyone about the Lunar's Tell. A botch makes the effects last for a Lunar month.

Terrifying Lust Infliction
Cost: 5 motes
Duration: One Scene
Type: Supplemental
Minimum Manipulation: 4
Minimum Essence: 2
Prerequisite Charms: Ascendant Manipulation
Lunars bring out people's desires. This Charm supplements a social roll to rouse emotions or hunger, lust or some sort of physical craving in one of the targets, using either Presence or Performance. This roll is at +1 difficulty for every 20 individuals within it. Anyone within it with a willpower less than the number of successes accumulated are affected by the craving. A target may spend 1 willpower for every two successes the Lunar achieved in the roll past their willpower to throw off this effect.

Ideal Mate's Instinct
Cost: 8 motes
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Minimum Manipulation: 4
Minimum Essence: 3
Prerequisite Charms: Terrifying Lust Infliction
The Lunar designates a target, which he must taste something of – a droplet of blood, a part of hair, a goblet of sweat, even leftover saliva left on a cup. He understands that person’s instincts, and changes his shape slightly – his build, his scent, everything that is important but nearly invisible – to match the person’s instinctual responses, becoming the victim’s ideal mate, overriding all logic or reason. For the remainder of the scene the Lunar converts a number of dice into automatic successes equal to his Manipulation in any seduction attempt against the victim, and she victim must roll her Temperance every turn not to give in. Spending willpower equal to the Lunar's Essence(or half the Lunar's Essence if the victim leaves the Lunar’s presence) cancels the effect, and every successful Temperance roll counts as a willpower spent for those purposes.

Even then, there will be a lasting longing on the victim. This may sour the victim on the Lunar – even if the victim does not know shapechanging magic was involved, few rational beings like to give in to their basest instincts. This Charm has no effect on automata, ghosts, or other beings that possess no response to pheromones. It does, however, affect Gods, Demons and embodied Raksha, if the Lunar can be considered of the right species.
