Exalted campaign run by ResplendentDestiny on irc.thisisnotatrueending.com 6667 #exalted (suptg).


*Moving to '''Wednesday evenings''' Eastern time. Something like 6pm. We'll see when everybody shows up.
Show's over folks, you don't have to go home but you can't stay here.
*If you're not going to show up, '''please''' send a privmsg my way or leave a note with Memoserv or something.
 
Designated Fallout Shelter is irc.rizon.net 6667 #Exalted, since suptg crashes whenever somebody is playing Exalted.

===Premise===
It's midway through the month of Resplendent Earth and it's still snowing. The North is cold, but this isn't that far north. If this goes on, the cold will kill crops and cause famine. The East can ship grain, and the Guild would be greatly pleased by this, but the long-term prospects are not good...

Currently based in Whitewall. An '''[[Campaign:Enfolding Ice/Stuff|NPC list]]''' is available. There are also '''custom [[Campaign:Enfolding Ice/Charms|charms]]'''. The rather long-winded and overly-precise '''[[Campaign:Enfolding_Ice/Houserules|houserules]]''' can be summarized as:


This is intended for the noobs mainly, so everybody can get to learn the system. Basic Age of Sorrows, starting at Essence 2.

====Character creation====
#You can have 1 free BP to apply to one of the backgrounds Backing, Contacts, Familiar, Influence, or Mentor. If you use this free BP, you must explain what these backgrounds mean to your character and how these they tie your character into the world.
#You can have 1 other free BP to apply to starting Resources. (Note: these are BP, not dots. You need a second BP to get a fourth or fifth dot.)
#No Artifact 4 or 5 items at the start; if this is a big problem, talk to me. If you want a Manse, talk to me about what you want first.
#A character can start play with one item that has a Cost rating equal to their Resources rating. Such a purchase after creation would lower the Resources rating as normal.
#Now that we have some established characters, new players start with 25xp and will be ramped up to some kind of balance.
#Backgrounds can be bought with XP, 3xp per dot.
 
====Powers====
 
#The Twilight anima power automatically reduces damage when the Twilight has been involved in caste-related or defensive actions such as Shape Sorcery or Guard actions, not sword-swinging front-line combat.
#The Dawn anima power is strengthened as follows:
#*The Dawn gains +2 DV for each point by which her Essence is greater than that of her attacker's Valor.
#*Non-exalted humans and certain other Essence 1 beings in combat against the Dawn must roll their Valor at a difficulty of half the Dawn's Essence (round up) or flee until they cannot see the Dawn. Innocent bystanders may cower in fear instead of running if they wish.
#:These effects only come into play when the Dawn's anima is at the 11+ levels, or the Dawn spends 10m to activate them.
#Combo creation is modified as follows:
#*You can create any combo by spending a number of XP equal to the sum of the Ability requirements of the Charms in the combo, as normal.
#*You can add one Charm to an existing combo by spending a number of XP equal to the Ability requirement of the Charm. You can repeat this step.
#Certain training times are reduced:
#*Increase Attribute: (rating) weeks
#*Increase caste/favored Attribute: (rating) days
#*Increase out-of-caste/unfavored Ability: (rating * 3) days
#*Increase Essence above 3: talk to me. It'll probably take a while though.
#*Add Specialty dot: talk to me
#*New Ability: 1 week
#*New Spell: first circle, 3 days; second circle, 9 days; third circle, 15 days
#*New Knack: 1 week
#:These times assume the character works full-time without a trainer; trainers will decrease the time needed. Relevant events during a play session will cut these times noticeably; talk to me if you feel you are eligible for a discount.
 
There are some broken Charms out there; if it seems too powerful, it probably is and I'll fix it. Essence Disruption Attack for instance gets the keyword Shaping so that Integrity Protecting Prana blocks it. You want Integrity Protecting Prana. Really. There are fae and things that will turn you into a blueberry, in addition to EDA and such.
 
==== Other stuff ====
#Overwhelming: Divide the Overwhelming by 3, round up, add to Essence: this is the minimum damage. So, 9L/3 in the hands of an Essence 3 character does minimum damage of 4.
#The prerequisites for Adamant Skin Technique are Iron Skin Concentration and Body Mending Meditation.
 
Other than this, I'm using the basic rules with reasonable interpretations.

No Sidereals, one rogue Abyssal maybe with a good reason, others are negotiable but I'd prefer Solars. Players should have a reason for sticking together and for being in the North or Northeast (Halta, etc). The motivation doesn't have to be directly related to the premise, but don't expect to get a personal quest in the South. Once a few characters are set up we'll settle on a place they can all meet.

Exalted campaign run by ResplendentDestiny on irc.thisisnotatrueending.com 6667 #exalted (suptg).

Show's over folks, you don't have to go home but you can't stay here.

Premise[edit]

It's the end of the season of Wood and it's still snowing. The North is cold, but this isn't that far north. If this goes on, the cold will kill crops and cause famine. The East can ship grain, and the Guild would be greatly pleased by this, but the long-term prospects are not good...

Currently based in Whitewall. An NPC list is available. There are also custom charms. The rather long-winded and overly-precise houserules can be summarized as:

0. DON'T BE A DICK
1. HAVE FUN
2. BE AWESOME
3. A HUMOR IS FINE TOO

Other links: mass combat reference, RDbot command reference

Characters[edit]

If you need a char sheet, copy this; you can also link me anything I can read.

Write your name on IRC, and your character caste, concept, and motivation. Link the char sheet when it's done.

No Sidereals or casteless Lunars, one rogue Abyssal maybe with a good reason, others are negotiable but I'd prefer Solars. Players should have a reason for sticking together and for being in the North or Northeast (Halta, etc). The motivation doesn't have to be directly related to the premise, but don't expect to get a personal quest in the South.

Main characters[edit]

These are people who show up enough for me to reasonably plan on them existing.

  • Zeplin666 - Undrowning Bear's Laughter
  • Dif - Rhakekossshkek - Pterok Dragon King looking for mystery and wonder.
  • Kalga - Ralleni- Changing Moon with a sweet hat. Available whenever I'm on. I'm not doing anything important.
  • LawnPygmy - Giselle Vonflamme - Spunky, punky-haired sorceror-technician looking for parts to build her golden clockwork vision of the future. Available from 1730 to 0545 CST.

New folks[edit]

New folks are new.

Warning: people beyond this point should consider themselves on a waitlist. (Though it seems people always disappear.) Feel free to throw yourself in here, but you may not be able to play if there are too many people.

  • Currently full.

Morgue[edit]

Rest in peace.
