Older D&D/AD&D and Other SystemsThe forum for discussions specifically related to the rules and procedures of either any of the older editions of Dungeons & Dragons (1e, 2e, BECMI, OD&D) or any other non-D&D roleplaying rules (Vampire: The Requiem, Dread), including non-fantasy d20 systems (such as Mutants & Masterminds).

Gryffon has made some mention of redoing the picture with the new Doctor and some of the newer characters. I believe River Song may have been mentioned.

Or you know it could just be the game contradicting itself, not like that's never happened. But personally I prefer the above.
It's only said that he refused it, and then goes into multiple possible reasons as to why, including "He was fated to do something horrible, but only after he should have died." which is a good opening for Chejop KeDeathlord.

When, at a given rough tier of demigodness, you're more demigodly than all the other demigods.
Your mileage will vary between games.

High-power Hearthstones, one of those abilities is that they auto-attune to whomever's in contact with them.
They're also in a hearthstone-poor setting, making them even more potent in contrast.
Also, suggestion:
General Exalted Discussion V: Errata'd to "Shenanigans-Ok"

Step 1: take Chaos-something Pattern from Solars
Step 2: Put it into Sidereal Charm set.
Step 3: rename it Loom-Loyalty Protection
Re: General Exalted Discussion IV: Roll Join Debate
I think it should be GED V: There's a Raksha For That.
'Cause not everything that guy does is cenetred on graces. Sometimes there's charms involved!

Re: General Exalted Discussion IV: Roll Join Debate
One thing to keep in mind would be that permanent Essence rating jokes are already used in Keychain threads, so we should probably go with something else here.

TSR, TSR after being bought out by Wizards of the Coast, Wizards of the Coast.
Fifth edition will naturally have the Hasbro logo on it.

your done. *rolls eyes*
First of all, Chaos-Repelling Pattern doesn't actually protect you from Shaping. It makes the area around you effectively part of Creation. If a Terrestrial's going to punch your soul off with martial arts, Chaos-Repelling Pattern will do nothing to stop it.
The Charm you're looking for is Integrity-Protecting Prana.
Second of all, it isn't (nor should it be) that simple; Integrity-Protecting Prana is an Integrity 1 24-hour Shaping defense with no prerequisites that only costs 5m, 1wp; chances are that it'd have to be mechanically re-tooled to be appropriate for a Sidereal. And no, I don't just mean nerfing it because nothing gets Charms as good as Solars', I mean that it should be just plain work differently.

They cannot make one though, because as of canon, they cannot create new charms. They can make a martial arts style based around reflecting shaping attacks though.

Not entirely true. Sidereal charms simply have to be written into the loom by the maidens. Not an easy task, but it is possible to make new charms.

Re: General Exalted Discussion IV: Roll Join Debate
They're no longer considered a mortal for charm effects. This is pretty useful.

Re: General Exalted Discussion IV: Roll Join Debate
You forgot Shadowlands Circle Necromancy, for the aspiring sorcerer who would like to have less options at his disposal.
Also, I'm suddenly getting an idea for my Devil Tiger's charm tree. "Colorful Egg Full of [Nouns]". A crafting charm that allows you to lay eggs full of stuff! Like "Colorful Egg Full of [Pants]", or "Colorful Egg Full of [Daiklaves]".
