That does look like an interesting knack. Hmmm... I've HAD a lunar NPC bypass this by having the heart's blood of someone who looks identical to her human form. ^_^; ~ [[Haku]] | That does look like an interesting knack. Hmmm...

Shapeshifting Refinement Knacks
Assuming the Mortal Coil
Prerequisites: Subtle Silver Declaration, Essence 4, Appearance 5
A Steward with this charm no longer declares their identity to Creation. There are many reasons to do this for a Lunar but the simplest one is sometimes a preference to operate in their true form without letting people know who they are. Lilith is known to possess this knack. The effects of this knack are simple. When the Lunar is in a true form, other then the hybrid war form of course, those who observe them do not treat their MDV as being double as they normally would.
Aspects of Age
Prerequisites: Changing Plumage Mastery, Essence 3, Appearance 3
Normally a Lunar is limited with the alterations they can make to their forms but these are superficial. With this the Lunar lets apparent age be modified. From a young teen to a doddering old senile fool a range of ages is granted to them. Though it will not make them unrecognizeable it can help with a disguise or just for the sake of vanity of the Steward who wishes to controle such things.
Superior Body Mastery
Prerequisites: Essence 2, Wits 3
Lunars with this knack can master their bodies in other ways beyond making them faster and more flexible. They can bring into them their strength and toughness of their own human forms when such things will improve matters. The Lunar can always now replace their human form Stamina for any other forms and when assuming a form that is of at least human size they can use their strength as well in place of the forms strength.
Mammoth Warbody Transformation
Prerequisites: Deadly Beastman Transformation, Towering Beast Form, Essence 3, Stamina 4, Strength 4
Inspired by might of Warstiders but being a purist who would not use such composite devices the Lunar Kamandol developed a charm to build his strength and toughness to such levels without needing such equipment. The characters warform swells to about 18 feet in height. Gets an Armor soak of 20L&B and increases their strength to 12. This form can use Gift charms just the Lunar can in their Deadly Beastman Transformation except for the Armor-Forming Technique charm which only provides a benifit if the Lunar can use it to buy more then 20 soak in which case the soak from that charm replaces what this knack gives. The bonus Strength does not count as dice granted by charms however the Lunar for purposes of dice adders uses their normal DBT strength as the limit for dice caps. As a final difficulty this form is hard to maintain and requires the Lunar committ 15 motes to the tranformation.

That does look like an interesting knack. Hmmm... I've HAD a lunar NPC bypass this by having the heart's blood of someone who looks identical to her human form. ^_^; ~ Haku
