==Lore== '''Avoiding the Truth''', pg. 35. *3m, reflexive. Illusion. Makes listener disbelieve the Sidereal's statement. Any listener with Dodge MDV less than Exalt's (connections or backing in Bureau of Secrets) + Lore + Essence believes this is statement is false. 3 wp to ignore, or 1wp if compelling evidence, and if incontrovertable evidence, then breaks automatically. '''Systematic Understanding of Everything''', pg. 33. *2m 1wp, reflexive. Lasts until Sidereal next sleeps. The Exalt sleeps and receives a vision of the world as it must be according to the plans of the Bureau of Secrets. Upon waking, she walks in a world that is filled with portents, the emerald threads of destiny draping everything in their own secrets. This Charm can only be activated when the Sidereal goes to sleep, and it can not be deactivated voluntarily or by any effect until the Exalt next goes to sleep. While it is active the Exalt’s non-reflexive rolls to find or recall information lower their target number by one, to a minimum of four. This includes reading someone’s motivation (Exalted, p. 131), diagnosing a patient (Exalted, p. 137) and most thaumaturgical rituals of the Art of Astrology (Exalted, p. 138). This reduction applies only to actions whose purpose in whole or in greater part is to find or recall information; it would not apply to rolls to create an artifact or build a manse, even though research is a vital part of those actions. '''Of the Shape of the World''', pg. 35. *2m per -1 TN & 1wp, supplemental. This Charm can enhance any roll during the creation of a Sidereal astrology, reducing the target number of the rolls it is used to enhance by one, to a minimum of four. It may be used to enhance the Effect roll. '''Of Horrors Best Unknown''', pg. 35. *10m 1wp, or 10m 5wp 1hl, simple. Shaping. A Sidereal can make an unblockable Dexterity + Lore attack with these threads at a cost of 10 motes and one Willpower, binding the target in the bad luck of the target’s unwantedness. If it hits the Exalt names a circumstance with the same scope and purpose as World-Shaping Artistic Vision (see p. 14). Within the next year and a day for the rest of the scene in which that situation comes up, the target number of others to attack or oppose the actions of the victim are reduced by one, to a minimum of four. A single Exalt may not stack this effect on a target, but multiple Exalts may affect the same target at the same time. This Charm can target anything less powerful than a titan (Primordial, Yozi, etc.), including Deathlords and Third Circle demons. Instead of its usual activation cost a Sidereal may pay ten motes and five Willpower to make this Charm’s attack both unblockable and undodgeable, and to extend the lifetime of the binding indefinitely.
