Stewards make the most of limited resources, including people. When leading a unit, the Lunar can invoke this Charm to make her soldiers or followers appear more numerous than they really are. Each soldier may bear two torches or paint figures on his shield; socialites can talk loudly or dance to seem twice as numerous. This Charm targets another unit and calls for a (Manipulation + [War or Socialize]) roll at a difficulty equal to the Perception of the target unit's leader. If the roll is successful, the targeted unit treats the Lunar's unit as double its Magnitude for all purposes until the Charm ends.
