    Quite frankly, the best part was Secret's redemption and the tearful reunion with Marena as their bond is restored. Added a great deal of depth to both of them.

    Nah, the BEST bit was easily when Marena used Abyssal Necromancy to resurrect the fallen Solars, and Secret used Solar Sorcery to return their Exaltations. Most heartlifting sequence ever-and the resulting FIGHT scene! Blew my mind.

    For people who have trouble with Exalted character creation, you might want to try either Anathema (if you're sticking to Solars or DBs) or Ed's Toolkits for Exalted (if you're not.) They make it a lot easier to mess around and experiment, and I think they helped me figure out the system some (I'd say "Why did my points change like that?" and look it up in the book.)

    In my experience, Anathema is a bit more useable but Ed's toolkit has more options - I'd recommend starting with Anathema and then getting Ed's Toolkit once you're more familiar with the process.

    "Hey, those aren't pillows!"

    The thing that bugs me about Anathema is that it updates derived values when you change things one way, but doesn't un-update when you change them back. I drove myself insane figuring out why every time I tinkered with virtues I wound up with "ghost" bonus points, when what was happening was every time I tweaked a virtue it boosted my will power...

    Also, needs an in editor charm addition tool.

    Yeah, that was a bit confusing, but I liked the easy-to-read charm flowcharts and other formatting much better than Ed's Toolkit's lists of lists. I think it makes it easier to consider all my options and see what I need to get what I want.

    It should also be noted that the game is undergoing massive errata right now. Solar char gen has been changed fundamentally, for example, and the Sidereal book is about to receive what will amount to a new charm set from scratch.

    Also a whole lot of new charms have been added. Check out the Scroll of Errata (although there is some problems with it right now; there is a newer version that failed to get posted here, I think it will come shortly) and the Ink Monkeys blog for additional information.

    Exalted: if you can play it and have fun in the process, you're doing it wrong / it needs errata.

    I'm happy they change the game for the better (because I really think they do), but damn it, they just need to put out a 2.5 edition soon. All the cross-referencing is making me hesitant to even read the new stuff.

    Luckily there are many total rewrites.
