Matching her movements with those of her opponent's as if the two were dancing partners rather than mortal enemies, a Sidereal can predict the completion of an attack's choreography and so avoid the sting of a stray blade. For the rest of the scene, the Sidereal adds her Performance score to the equasion that calculates DV, and is immune to onslaught penalties as lng as the Charm is active. Assuming her specialties apply, the Sidereal is allowed to add those to her DV calculation also. This charm can apply for either DDV or MDV, whichever is appropriate. | Matching her movements with those of her opponent's as if the two were dancing partners rather than mortal enemies, a Sidereal can predict the completion of an attack's choreography and so avoid the sting of a stray blade.

Matching her movements with those of her opponent's as if the two were dancing partners rather than mortal enemies, a Sidereal can predict the completion of an attack's choreography and so avoid the sting of a stray blade. For the rest of the scene, the Sidereal adds her Performance score to the equasion that calculates DV, and is immune to onslaught penalties as lng as the Charm is active. Assuming her specialties apply, the Sidereal is allowed to add those to her DV calculation also. This charm can apply for either DDV or MDV, whichever is appropriate.
