Prerequisite Charms: Any Manipulation Excellency

Lunar Exalted are master dissemblers. When someone takes an action opposed by a difficulty or a roll based on the character's Manipulation, such as trying to read the character's intentions or motivations, the character may activate this Charm to make that action automatically fail. When the opponent's action is supported by a Charm, the character must spend an additional point of Willpower to activate Mask of White Jade.

Multiple characters might use (Perception + Investigation) to detect a lie or deception from the Lunar. When that happens, the Lunar need not activate this Charm multiple times; one activation suffices to make the character unreadable to all observers for a single lie or deception.
