By touching a target, which may require a Martial Arts attack, and activating this Charm at a cost of one mote the Exalt inflicts no damage but rolls Charisma + Bureaucracy against the target’s Dodge MDV. Success inflicts a compulsion to fulfill any and all duties the target has associated with their position in an office, place of authority or other formal job. Such actions are completed faithfully and without corruption, either active or passive. Duties for those without the Backing Background usually entail whatever they do for a living even if it affords no firm rules for conduct; those with Backing can at times ironically exercise more freedom, as their organization will have enumerated the rules of their comportment. A target may ignore this unnatural influence for a scene by paying one Willpower, and after paying (Sidereal’s Essence) Willpower the Charm lapses. Alternately, the target may spend (Exalt’s Essence, maximum five) Willpower immediately upon coming under the effects of this Charm to throw it off entirely, but once it is in place it must be resisted per scene. In the Mandate of Heaven a Sidereal sorcerer may enhance his dominion’s Tiger Confounds Bear Legislation with Icy Hand to improve the efficiency of the government. This adds extra successes to the action equal to the Exalt’s Essence, and for the action’s duration the Government-based difficulties of the dominion’s Constructive actions are reduced by two. | + | *1m or 5m 1wp, supplemental, 5 days.
