The Lawgivers define others' reality. This Charm is a Performance-based social attack that encourages a specific belief—for example, overwriting the audience's memories and convincing them that the Solar has always lived in their town. This Charm exerts unnatural mental influence on every valid target of this roll. If their MDV is less than the extra successes on the roll, this Charm inspires them to believe. It also creates an instant commitment to that belief. Shaking off the illusion requires one Willpower per scene, and the effect lasts until the targets break their commitment to the false belief.

Lies that Tell Themselves

The same as an Abyssal Exalted Charm. Adds Mirror Keyword.

The greatest lie ever told is that life has meaning. Next to this, the Abyssal's deceptions might as well be the sincerest truths.
