  • (Investigation) Efficient Secretary Technique (Abil 1 Ess 2 p162): 2m, Simple, One Miscellaneous Action.

  • (Larceny) Avoiding the Truth Technique (Abil 2 Ess 1 p163): 3m, Supplemental, Fate, Illusion, Virtue (Conviction), Instant. This charm adds Larceny in successes to a social ability roll. If the result exceeds the targets MDV, he thinks he saw through the lie and believes that whatever the Sidereal said isn't true.

The character receives a vision from the Maiden of Secrets, understanding how he fits into the Maiden's plan. Upon waking, the character gains three relevant bonus specialties that can be divided among up to three abilities. The dice from the specialties may also apply to the effect roll for Sidereal astrology that involves the corresponding college.
  • (Stealth) Soft Presence Practice (Abil 2 Ess 1 p170): 2m, Supplemental, One Action. This charm divides the number of motes spent by two for purposes of calculating the effect on a character's anima.
