Breeding

Seed of the Feral Soul
Cost: 5 motes, 1 willpower
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Minimum Charisma: 2
Minimum Essence: 2
Prerequisite Charms: Totem
The Lunars may pass part of their power through blood, that part of the Beast-Soul within them, creating the hybrids known as Beastmen. Used during mating(with any form), the Lunar assures that the mating will produce offspring. The offspring will then be a Beastman - a hybrid between the Lunar's Totem Animal and a Human. Beastmen are made with the Totem's Mutations, except that it loses No Manipulators and Prey, and all size mutations - the most Beastman can get are Small and Large. Aquatic ones receive the Denizen of Beyond flaw, but it applies only to time spent outside of the water. The Beastman will breed true, passing its Mutations to its offspring, creating a new race. The offspring will be a Lunar Half-Caste if the rules for them are used and the Lunar has Essence 4 or above.

On Lunar Half-Caste
Lunar Half-Caste do not possess a Totem. Therefore, they may not get the Charms that require a Totem, such as Breeding and all of the Totemic Cascade. They may not receive a Totem in any circumstance. They have no True Forms or Tells. They are unable to learn Fair Folk Charms as Lunars do, and are not natural shapeshifters, not receiving any of the benefits and powers Lunars get from it, barred from the Blood Library Background. Finally, they cannot Ascend. They have full access to all other Charms, however.

Shifting the Green Branch
Cost: 15 motes, 1 willpower, 1 health level
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Minimum Charisma: 3
Minimum Essence: 2
Prerequisite Charms: Seed of the Feral Soul
Soaking his palm with his own blood and setting it over a pregnant woman's belly, marking her, the Lunar uses his shapeshifting power on a mere seed on a womb, creating a beastman out of an already-conceived Child, which may or may not be his own. This requires the Mother's consent, and the physical touch of the Lunar's blood-soaked hand. The mark of the Lunar burns for a moment like acid, and it remains there until the child is born, the blood of the Lunar making its way to the child and changing it. The child is changed into a Beastman, as if he had been sired by the Lunar. However, it will not be a Half-Caste - the Lunar only passess his feral nature, not his Celestial one. The Beastman is still child of whatever parents, and may be another sort of God-Blooded as well if one of them are of Supernatural Heritage.

God-Beast's Favor
Cost: 12 motes, 1 willpower
Duration: A Lunar Phase
Type: Simple
Minimum Charisma: 3
Minimum Essence: 3
Prerequisite Charms: Shifting the Green Branch, Tatoo-Cutting Wisdom
The Lunar, as the leader of his people, gives his favor to one of them, so their offspring shall bear his mark. The Lunar tatoos a willing creature - for the remainder of the Moon, the creature will be extremely fertile, and any females it impregnates(if male), or children it finds itself pregnant with(if female) shall be Beastmen, as per Seed of the Feral Soul.

Children of the Silver Moon
Cost: 10 motes, 1 willpower, 1 experience point
Duration: Until Birth
Type: Simple
Minimum Charisma: 4
Minimum Essence: 4
Prerequisite Charms: Seed of the Feral Soul.
The Lunar may pass a heavy part of his Celestial Prowess through blood. The Child that is born from Children of the Silver Moon is not only a Beastman - it is also born with the Awakened Essence, Magical Attunement and the 10-point version of God-Body. They are also always born with the Aura of Power flaw. The Lunar also doubles his Essence for the purpose of determining the God-Blooded Beastman's Inheritance. This Charm should likely be used even if the rules for Half-Castes are not being used – it is a magic that creates powerful servants, much like many Celestial Sorcery effects.

Artisan of Generations Prana
Cost: None
Duration: Permanent
Type: Special
Minimum Charisma: 3
Minimum Essence: 3
Prerequisite Charms: Seed of the Feral Soul.
Using this Charm, the Full Moon Ofaniel sired the race of winged mortals of the North, the Windians. Upon learning it, the Lunar becomes an artist of flesh, able to make minute adjustments to the Beastmen. A beastman of a hawk needs not look like an anthropomorphic bird anymore, but lose all feathers not in the wings, appearing as winged humans with sharp eagle eyes. The Lunar may take out Mutations at whim, and make them more unobtrusive. Moreover, the Lunar may add a number of Mutation Points equal to twice his Essence in Glorious Hero Form or Surpassing Excellencies - doing so costs 1 Experience Point, however.

Seed of the Endless Wild
Cost: None
Duration: Permanent
Type: Special
Minimum Charisma: 4
Minimum Essence: 4
Prerequisite Charms: Seed of the Feral Soul.
The Lunar understands the lifeblood that runs through him, that of the many living creatures he has consumed. He understands life, the lineages, the truth about blood and the creation of the shapes he has within his soul. With this understanding, he becomes able to create any of them, able to gift his children with any of this lifeblood. After purchase of this Charm, the Lunar is not limited to creating beastmen of his Totem anymore - they may be of any species in the Lunar's Blood Library. The rules for creating them are the same as the normal ones, however.

Blood of the Chimerae
Cost: 6 motes, 1 willpower
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Minimum Charisma: 5
Minimum Essence: 5
Prerequisite Charms: Seed of the Endless Wild.
The Lunar's understanding of the various lineages and lifeblood of beasts becomes even greater, and now, he is not only able to choose which lineage to impart upon his children, but becomes an artist of lifeblood, every lineage a different color in his pallete, which he can mix and match to produce fantastic results. With this Charm, the Lunar can pay 1 experience point in addition to that of Seed of the Feral soul to add another creature, with all of its mutation points, to the Beastman, creating his own hybrids, his own gryphons.

Silver Apotheosis Prana
Cost: 20 motes, 1 willpower, 1 health level, 1 Experience Point
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Minimum Charisma: 6
Minimum Essence: 6
Prerequisite Charms: Blood of the Chimerae, Children of the Silver Moon, Wondrous Lunar Transformation, Silver Calibration Marking
A powerful blessing possessed by few of the Chosen of the Moon, a blessing of great power. With this Charm, the Lunar tatoos the body of another, adding part of his lifeblood with it, part of his form, his might and power. The tatoos shine with the light of the soul they are engraved in, and it beguns to... change.
