Hand to Hand combat, Lunars may use these Charms with or without weapons, as a rule. A few may refer specifically to a weapon, but on the whole Lunars just treat swords or axes like extensions of their body- they have no need to devolp seperate Charms for going bare-handed instead of armed.

Charms which directly enhance the Lunar's reflexes, speed or accuracy cluster under Dexterity. Those which enhance his raw power or ferocity fall under Strength. Those relating to changing his form fall under Stamina.

Any Charm which grants or enhances a Lunar's parry allows them to parry lethal attacks barehanded without needing a stunt.
