Oath of Devotion [Honor] - Paladin
I once decided to save a life of a succubus. She sworn not to betray an oath she made to me (Not to do ill to unarmed people) and we had an affair for a while, she used to travel and adventure with me. But one day when we faced a strong opponent she teleported me out when I was in danger. I came back to see the monster killed and her gone, now I seek to find her so we could reunite one day. Suspicious that the demons got her under the influence again I became a sort of a demon hunter,

The swashbuckler wants fame, glory, and to do everything and everyone worth doing. Also good fights, she loves good fights.

The socialite/diplomat just wants daddy to approve of her. He is a fae merchant prince with dozens of half-human children who all crave and fight for his approval. Fortunately she Exalted as an Eclipse Solar, unfortunately he fears her now and exiled her. That just means she must try harder.

The Vampire merchant/socialite wants every kind of power she can get hands on, to the point of being downright fanatical in the pursuit of her ambitions. Though what she really wants is to be safe from anyone being able to hurt her ever again.

The Romulan starship captain wishes dearly she could have been an space opera singer. Now all she wants is that her duty be taken care of, so she can finally absolve herself of her guilt via suicide. She's manipulated, killed, and betrayed so many people for the good of the Empire, and she hates it, but she has to keep doing it because all the other nobles care only by their petty ambitions.

The space pirate captain wants to find a way to free her crew, the only thing in the universe she cares about, from the blond brat who is holding them hostage to force her cooperation. Ideally before he's finished reconquering his kingdom and makes her his queen. His bedchambers are loathsome enough already without being married to him.

The combat engineer Cybertronian mercenary just wants a fat paycheck for doing the only thing she's good at. Though she is also funding research into backing up Cybertronian conciousness in a bid to attain immorality. Yes the paychecks are that fat, millions of years of combat experience are expensive.

The Night Solar starfighter pilot wants to kill the Tyrant Sun for killing her queen (whose Exaltation she now holds). She also really wants the Sovereign who fell in love with her in battle, and switched sides to be with her, to fuck-up so she can kill him. This time she won't miss.

Also as to how they did in accomplishing their goals:

>Swashbuckler is so far on the path of getting exactly what she wants.

>Daddy caught magical sickness and was dying, leaving him scrambling for a worthy successor. He hoped his exiled daughter would be it, but she told him she was too mindfucked to be more than a more powerful version of her siblings, but she would try her best to hold up his domain regardless.

>The vampire is thus far is successfully climbing the power ladder, and has even ascended to Princedom, but she is also slowly realizing that she'll never, ever be safe.

>The Romulan is probably going to wind up Empress just to keep all the other idiots off the throne, and hating every minute of it.

>The blond brat already won. There's no way the captain can escape, and given time his powers can bend even a will as strong her's. The pirate crew are are already his. Eventually she shall be his as well, so she will be his queen and she will like it.

>Mercenary Cybertronian can keep doing what she's doing until someone gets lucky and kills her, but copying her spark will prove effectively impossible, so that will be the end. It was a good life though.

>Falls in love with the Sovereign in spite of herself, but refuses to admit until he forces her to by raping her. It works because she can't bring herself to kill him, or even hate him, thus proving her feelings. Defeating the Tyrant Sun is close to impossible even for Exalted, so this may take a while, but she could conceivably do it.
