 This is pretty cool.  There's a couple of things I'm wondering about

 Is this called Born Under A Full Moon because there's an actual superstition
 that being born on the night of a full moon makes you weak-minded, or just
 because it sounds cool?

 Actually, same question for the Knacks in the rules...

 This seems a little clunky, and also not likely enough to be worth the
 investment of a chip for the Marshal.

 I really like this, actually, now that I read it again.  Might use that in
 my own game at some point.

 Have a fate chip!
