He fears his fate too much, and his reward is small, who will not put it to the touch, to win or lose it all.

Re: General Exalted Discussion II: No Longer Mortal
I did a write-up for a 0 xp Sidereal mountain-hurler, using the Dawn errata. He's built primarily for lifting and throwing, of course, with some attention paid to Astrology so he can keep using that resplendency.
SpoilerName: Propitious Projector of Peaks
Exalt Type and Caste: Sidereal Chosen of Journeys
Anima: A hovering yellow mountain
Lifting ability, so you don't have to wait for it:
5 Strength + 5 Athletics + 3 Specialties + 5 Virtue channel + 5 Cooperation + 2 Stunt + 2 Second Excellency +3 Eye of the First Goat +2 Jewel of Youthful Suppleness = 32, multiplied by The Mast for a final 320 Feat of Strength.
Motivation: To free Creation from the Primordials by moving large objects to more auspicious locations.
Background: Projector was born in midair, as a Solar hurled a field hospital out of a First Circle Demon's reach to save the civilians inside. He was recruited to run messages for the military as soon as he learned to walk, at first in a succession of Sidereal field headquarters and later through active battlefields. At maturity, Projector was assigned to a counter-intelligence unit and rescued tremendous amounts of valuable information from the enemy with remarkable strength and timing, heaving bookcases onto passing yeddim and hurling data crystals onto low-flying airships.
Still, it was only in the minutes after his Exaltation that Projector truly came into his own. There is no need to recount that exploit here; everyone knows how the behemoth Gozmal the Flat got its name. Projector has begun to rearrange mountain ranges across the North in defense of the world, and confidently predicts that demonic forces will retreat from this Direction by the time Gozmal's tail stops twitching. Whether leading a detachment of Sidereal mountain-hurlers or rallying a Talon of adoring Dragon-Bloods, he has become one of the most prominent Celestials in the North mere months since his Exaltation.
Several have asked Mercury if Projector was supposed to Exalt as a Solar, noting his awesomeness and virtue and tendency to shine yellow light everywhere. She always smiles and says she would never steal from the UCS, and certainly not alter Fate to deprive His Perfection of a soul that deserved a more powerful Exaltation than what she can provide. Jupiter always starts giggling around then, for some reason.

Re: General Exalted Discussion II: No Longer Mortal
Probably Devil-Tyrant Avatar Shintai.
Soul-Sand Devil Shintai is also pretty easy, and it nets you (the worst Solar-level) perfect defense on your way there.
EDIT: Just for reference, Devil-Tyrant is Ess 3 with two prereqs (one of which is also really friggin' amazing), and Soul-Sand is Ess 4 with three prereqs (one of which is the aforementioned perfect defense).Last edited by Xefas; 2011-02-05 at 08:54 PM.

Re: General Exalted Discussion II: No Longer Mortal
I just had an awesome idea for a Heretical Infernal game.
The Reclamation was a success, the Yozis were freed from their prison and reclaimed what is theirs from the pitiful gods. The Unconquered Sun was not able too tear himself from the games even as the forces of Hell beat down the doors of the Jade Pleasure Dome, The Daystar doused in the acid waters of Kimbery, Luna was trapped in a prison existing purely in the mind of Oramus. and the maidens were placed in shackles forged from the tainted Starmetal of the deceased Incarnae Nox; crushing their will completely. The 150 Solar Exaltations were captured and twisted into Exaltations of the Green Sun. Those foolish enough not to back the Reclamation remained trapped in the body of their one-time king.
Everything seemed to be going the Yozis way. Until a new concept appeared among their favored servants. Heresy. These new Heretics rebelled against their masters. Even more horrifying, the Yozis couldn't defeat them out of hand. Heaven and Creation have been ravaged by War for the last 1500 years. Both sides have suffered serious casualties, though unlike the Yozis the Heretics can replenish themselves not just their souls.
I'm not sure I want to run it however, because if I run it then I can't play.Avatar by Elagune

Re: General Exalted Discussion II: No Longer Mortal
This was my logic on STing an Alchemicals game - players get to create one dynamic, interesting character to interact through. STs get a hundred.
Granted, this game also collapsed because I stopped posting, so...
I just want to take a minute to apologize to the players of that game. I was going through a lot of issues then. Still am, really. That, of course, doesn't excuse the fact that I let you all down, especially since I was harping on some of the players for doing that very thing. The fact that I haven't done this previously is also inexcusable. Ganurath, Ellas Aramond, DCGFTW, The Blue Guard, and Drascin - if you are reading this, you should know that you deserve better than what I gave you, and I humbly ask for your forgiveness.
I also have internet cookies. They're homeade.Last edited by tonberrian; 2011-02-05 at 09:34 PM.

Aw mans, does that mean I'd finally get to play my reasonably-benevolent Malefactor that Devil-Tigers into Old Testament God? That would make me so happy.

Re: General Exalted Discussion II: No Longer Mortal
Is there a background that gives you something along the lines of a Cohort granted by the leadership feat in DnD? Player in my game wants something like that, and right now I'm using the Ally background to represent it, but I was wondering if there was a better way. Not that the ally isn't as capable as a full exalt(it's a heroic mortal, most likely unenlightened), so it's not like the guys getting two full characters to play around with.
