Ja. It happened in Rosario Vampire. Tiger isn't quite sure how it happened, he blames Frisk and Kurumu, who he should have never introduced to one another.

I honestly can't tell if it's a troll attempt or not.
Opinions and all that, but I dun like it.

>>53118070
I don't remember the God-Warriors having rooms built into them. Was this in the concept art of their insides?

>>53118169
Boi, are you just fukken picky.

>>53118169
What is it that you don't like about it?
>>53118179
This was in the manga, they had controls, gun mounts and interior doors

>>53118158
Shh, don't fight this, Tiger. Just enjoy your fluffy waifu.

>>53118179
>>53118190
Though to be fair that was just one of them, so I kind of ran with it.

>>53118190
>This was in the manga, they had controls, gun mounts and interior doors
I read the manga, I just don't remember Ohm having that. Then again, he was hatched premature, so I guess maybe he didn't grow them yet?

>>53118091
Vandread!

He does enjoy it, and is rather happy. Doesn't mean he isn't confused on how it happened.

Sadly I know nothing of the series. Do you or anybody else happen to know anything you'd like to say or talk about in regards to it?

>>53118230
I do as well. One of my friends is very into mecha anime, and told me about it once because the concept is so goofy. Never seen it myself.

>>53118183
Maybe. It's roughly Familiar of Zero tier to me.

>>53118190
It's extremely basic. Like half the perks are just you can do thing well. If that's what you were going for then I guess it's alright.. Jumps are "supposed" to be just to go to the setting. It's just really barebones. I'll admit the majority of the reason I thought it was a troll attempt is because of the "ironic?" shitposting from the last thread or so ago.
If it's not then I guess my opinions don't matter.

Also 300cp tier perks a shit even with 50cp items

>>53118243
Giant-mecha space series that initially revolves around two planets being at war - one planet's made up of men, one planet's made up of women. The rest of the galaxy regards these people as WEIRD.

Also, Earth is an irradiated and horrific mess that goes out on expeditions to capture / murder others and harvest their organs.

I do. It was a fun little mecha anime. The whole "literal battle of the sexes" thing felt a bit forced at times, but I liked the characters and the mechanical designs and fights were great for early 2000s CGI.

>>53118243
Okay, so you've got these two warring planets, Mejerre and Tarak. Due to a falling out between the husband and wife who colonized them way back hundreds of years ago, Mejerre is all women and Tarak is all men. One day Hibiki, a Tarakian engineer, takes a bet to steal a "Vanguard", a type of giant robot. In the process he winds aboard the Tarakian capital ship as it goes to war against Mejerreian raiders. Said capital ship was actually built from the remains of the colony ship that brought humans to Mejerre and Tarak, and as such contains the Paksis, a weird crystalline lifeform that served as the colony ship's engine. The Paksis reacts to the fighting by fusing the Tarak and Mejerre ships together into one super-ship, while also upgrading Hibiki's Vanguard and three of the Mejerre forces' "Dread" fighter craft. But then things go wrong and the hyperdrive engages and teleports the new ship halfway across the galaxy.

>cont.

>>53118263
What kind of perks would you rather have then? I tried to make them fit to the backgrounds as best I could but I guess I just value skill too much.

>>53118190
Not him, but having only three perks for each background, which are mostly short descriptions of mundane skills, charging punishingly huge costs to import companions (800cp for a full 8), charging ludicrous amounts just to get what the main character has (1400 and a +800cp drawback for just one item of hers) and being limited to two drawbacks instead of 600cp. All of those are things that were standard in the very earliest jumps but which we've moved past in the few years.

Also, I do not think it is possible to survive the Seven Years of Fire drawback, short of just getting really really lucky.

>>53118070
A lot of the perks are very barebones. I get most of it because I watched the movie, but I feel like I'd have to watch the movie to get some of it. It really could use a bit more flavor in the description of things. It doesn't have to be bombtastic, you could just cite examples from the work.

>>53118219
A harem anime among the stars. Also, giant fighting robots fusing with space fighters due to some weird space entity.

>>53118355
Genetic sciences and cloning vats. Tarak had them all contribute genes into the vats while Mejerre had lesbian couples.

>>53118307
Honestly I don't know. Something that doesn't feel like I'm wasting cp. You did a good job making the capstones seem worth buying. Maybe effects that aren't just being a skill monkey but not on that level would be appropriate. If you don't want to scrap anything you could always drop the skills to 200cp tier and fill in 400 with new things. At least if you want to take this suggestion. I won't throw a fit if you don't.

If I were good at this I'd be making my own jumps so don't feel pressured to take it seriously.

>>53118355
Men used clone tanks, women had some method of... getting it with each other.

It caused a looooooooot of culture shock when people from two sides met.

>>53118355
The men had cloning vats and the women just fused eggs and used in vitro fertilization to have live birth. It's a plot point.

>>53118301
So things are awkward between the women and the few men who didn't evacuate the ship when the Paksis started going crazy. They reach an unsteady truce after Hibiki uses his upgraded Vanguard to help fight off bizarre cubic robots that seem oddly common to the region of space they find themselves in. In the process, it's also discovered that the Vanguard can fuse with one of the Dreads at a time (though the Dreads are so large that it's more like the Dread transforms and the Vanguard pilots the new bigger robot) to form more powerful super robots, the Vandreads. Together, the male and female crew of the newly-renamed Nirvana set out on a long voyage to return to their home solar system all the while fighting off the cubes, all the while Hibiki getting into weird harem anime situations with the pilots of his companion Dreads.

Along the way they discover that the cubes are some sort of harvester drone, existing to consume the flesh of humans spread throughout the galaxy by Earth's diaspora and return the harvested organs to Earth to sustain the lives of the horribly ill population of the post-apocalyptic world is became. The reason why they're doing this bizarre plan instead of just cloning organs is that it's all being lead by another Paksis, which doesn't understand humanity well and so is going for an overly cruel plan because it thinks that's what Earth humans want. In the end the Nirvana crew unites Tarak and Mejerre along with forces from other human colonies throughout the galaxy to defeat the rogue Paksis with the power of friendship.

>>53118355
Tarak uses cloning, Mejerre uses bioscience to fertilize eggs with other eggs (something that can actually be done with real modern technology, though it hasn't been used on humans yet).

>>53118310
In my view importing mass amounts of companions will quickly break a setting like this. A god warrior is too much to be considered just one item belonging to the protagonist and taking drawbacks shouldn't just be "I'm going to take all the ones my perks, items and companions can mitigate so I can get all the cool stuff". Finally, Seven Years of Fire is supposed to be hellish (no pun intended).

>>53118327
Thanks for the feedback, I'll pad out the descriptions for things at some point and start adding images. Hopefully.

>>53118368
I might swap around some of the 100 and 300cp perks and have a play with 200cp and 400cp tiers. My main issue will probably be thinking of new perks to put in the jump.

Hey Mardukth, is it possible to design new Shintai Charms for existing Yozi?

>>53118382
Shit. I need to use my Paksis Proxy perk a lot more often then.

>>53118429
No idea why there's an L in my name field.

Yeah, you can create custom Shintai just like you can other charms. Just has to fit their themes.

>>53118393
>In my view importing mass amounts of companions will quickly break a setting like this.
...okay. Can you explain to me how 8 people going through this jump is enough to break the setting, keeping in mind that they don't even have enough CP to buy their own background's full perk tree?

>Finally, Seven Years of Fire is supposed to be hellish (no pun intended).
How can you survive this drawback other than through ungodly amounts of luck? You can't run or hide from the god warriors, you can't fight them, and none of the perks in the jump can help your survive, except to a small extent Heedra. Even the God Warrior Egg requires 5 years to hatch, and you'll be long dead before you get to that point, not that a single god warrior would be enough to protect you from the armies of them coming after you.

Thank you kindly for taking some time out to explain the series to the thread.

Is Avatar Cycle good for anything? I remember someone trying to mix it with Making of Myth or whatever.

>>53118429
Not him, but yes. They will have to be within a essence 5 level, however. With some upgrades at higher essence maybe.

But closer to Heuristic Logos Shintai than 50 Mile dragons (but Matdukth has said to treat that one like a generic one every Yozi has their own version of)

SHLiHN could probably have a 'You are your own Manse' thing no problem. Malfeas also.

Cecyline could maybe have a shintai that embodies the desires of everyone who beholds it among other things.

Adorjan could give you a form where you are physically a wind indefinitely like her 4 daughters.

First, obtain sample of Paksis. Second, propagate Paksis and hook three of them up to a Third-Generation Jurian Tree. Y/N?

Second... HOOLIGAN. YOU AREN'T AN ORK. STOP TRYING TO SMASH YOUR MECHA INTO EVERYTHING AS A FIRST RESPONSE.

>>53118529
It's good for when you decide to stop jumping and someone magically fuck up in a way you die for good.
Other than that it's just for flavor.

>>53118553
>It's good for when you decide to stop jumping and someone magically fuck up in a way you die for good.

So basically, an impossible scenario's the only thing a shitty perk is useful for.

>>53118546
>First, obtain sample of Paksis. Second, propagate Paksis and hook three of them up to a Third-Generation Jurian Tree. Y/N?
Third Generation tree? Well, you might be safe, then. Just one is enough to make a blackhole-smashing super robot, though, so you're dealing with a lot of power here.

Fuck, now I'm thinking about all those cool early 2000s super robot anime that had kind of sub-par animation but were still fun. I should make a Gravion jump. Or maybe Godannar. Or Gun x Sword, that one was good. Really, any show from between 2000 and 2010 that started with a "G".

>>53118564
Do you just want to scream about a perk that doesn't have much practical use?
It's for the cool factor. That's about it.

>>53118510
Eight people with 400cp each in this jump would give you the capacity to potentially take over the continent or completely destroy it through spreading the miasma, taking over the existing empires, taming an army of insects or the like.

Should you live off the land and stay mobile, away from cities, towns, convoys, etc, constantly travelling and escaping notice you should be able to survive long enough for your egg to hatch, the other God Warriors to start dying off and then clawing a little corner out of the world for you to survive in. If you play smart it should be possible.

Hey, I know this is gonna cause some grumbling, but I have to ask anyway; is the Spirited Away jump kosher, even if it's on Dirge's drive and not ours? Because I really like the look of that Witch background.

>>53118690
Get the fuck out.

>>53118539
>SHLiHN could probably have a 'You are your own Manse' thing no problem.
Doubt it. Buildings are Malfeas' thing, the only truck She Who Lives has with them is hacking their AI.

>Adorjan could give you a form where you are physically a wind indefinitely like her 4 daughters.
Errata'd Scarlet Rapture already turns you into a wind, but is only for a scene. Probably won't get that indefinitely at E5.

But shintai based on her other daughters (Pellegrina's charms already being prereqs for Scarlet Rapture) seems like it could work, building of Racing Vitalis, Kalmanka's Grace, and Sacred Kamilla's Inhalation.

>>53118690
It was on our drive for a while, but was lost in a the drive migration.
although I think the one on his drive has been updated since so someone will bitch anyways.

Everything is kosher in your head so stop fucking caring what some autistic fucks care about when playing your imagination game.

>>53118690
Go for it. All the assholes in this thread can do is scream. And frankly? We're used to the screaming at this point, because that's all they do.

>>53118690
Drives are just for storage. Nobody is going to show up at your house and kill you for deciding to use a jump.

>>53118740
I dunno. With how dickish and zealous some people here get...

>>53118690

Sure. It's your adventure.

>>53118429

The creation of new charms for their Yozi patrons by Infernals is an integral and important component of being an Infernal.

>>53118752
If it were possible for someone to do that we wouldn't have shitposters anymore.

>>53118752

And those losers could stand to be less emotionally invested in this particular form of escapism, because they're pathetic even by the standards of 4chan.

Just ignore them.

>>53118584
A Jumper with 8 Companions and a few Jumps under their belt can destabilize nearly any setting. That doesn't mean Imports have to cost 4/5th of your entire budget. They should cost, at most, 400 CP.

>>53118776
Yeah, they'd all be reading bad fanfics and xianxia novels in their free time instead :^)

>>53118798
Get out. Just get out.

>>53118797
That doesn't mean I want a first jump stomp option, personal preference, ya dig. You can still bring them in normally or (heresy) just use a house rule if you like companions that much.

>>53118815
Yeah, I heard that film was really good. Thanks for the tip, Anon.

>>53118564
It's somewhat useful if you're afraid of death after failing your chain, though now you can get a better version from Generic Creepypasta. It is odd that it has no use inside the chain itself, like giving you previous lives who you can meditate to get advice from.

>>53118584
>Eight people with 400cp each in this jump would give you the capacity to potentially take over the continent or completely destroy it through spreading the miasma, taking over the existing empires, taming an army of insects or the like.
I assume you mean "taking over existing empires" through intrigue with the Drop-In capstone, which I think is quite a stretch to say a talent for intrigue will let a person from a small community outside an empire (or someone with no past at all) control the government within ten years. But fine, I get one companion with Shadow That Guides as a political advisor, one with Friend of the Innocent to raise an army of Ohma for me, and someone else to grab some Weaponized Miasma for some bio-terrorism. And hell, let's get a Heedra bodyguard just to be safe. That's only 400CP. How would importing 8 companions for that price instead of four significantly improve the build? At best I'd get a couple more advisors and bodyguards.

>Should you live off the land and stay mobile, away from cities, towns, convoys, etc, constantly travelling and escaping notice you should be able to survive long enough for your egg to hatch, the other God Warriors to start dying off and then clawing a little corner out of the world for you to survive in. If you play smart it should be possible.
How am I suppossed to "stay mobile" while carting around an egg containing a robot that's a quarter of a kilometer tall. while being chased by an army of giant flying robots who can shoot radiation at people and who are trying to wipe out all society, for seven full years? And even if it hatches, how is one God Warrior going to protect me from multiple god warriors?

>>53118815
Psssst.

That's the exact thing he does.

And we're talking REALLY shit fanfics.

>>53118715
>Doubt it. Buildings are Malfeas' thing
It's not one Yozi per thing, famalam, there is overlap. And her things are both living inside herself, and not needing things because she is the thing.

>Probably won't get that indefinitely at E5
Shintai being indefinite forms by E5 is already a thing.

Oy.

Any progress on Silent Hill from the anon who picked it up?

>>53118832
If you're just going to shit post at people instead of answering some of the valid complaints against your Jump I agree with >>53118815.

>>53118834
The Drop In capstone is pretty much what the hidden power of one of the empires (Dorok) has, if a bit more powerful. His brother eventually shanked him and regained control, he had the Worm Handler capstone. Nausicaa was able to be regarded as a heroic figure straight from prophecy thanks to the rough equivalent of the Valley Dweller capstone and the Forest People capstone would have you straight up revered as a god by 80% of people in this setting.

>>53118837

>Brown Minions - Worm Handler
(Free) - Mushi-Blue
(Free) - Mercenary Appearance
100 - I Heard It On The Wind
300 (Worm Handler) - Heedra

Basic plan is to play shadow games from a safe zone somewhere. The Brown Minions will be my arms and legs while my Waifu and the Cultists start on purification projects.

I'll tinker away rebuilding stuff brought in by my companions with various repair and reverse engineering perks I have. Then sell said items back to allies who I hope to establish trade and have THEM bring me more stuff.

Everything will be recorded, saved and produced in a timely fashion. With knowledge of what will happen in setting, I can start by saving a plane full of refugees and have a princess in my debt. From there, see how things play out. I'm fairly certain my Brown Heedra can tank just about anything shy of one of the God Warriors which I'll also be studying.

Hard Mode would be going Drop In, taking the Immersion Tank, God Warrior Egg and Importing 2 Companions. Waifu with Purifier and Green Thumb, Brown Minions with Heedra and Heard It On The Wind.

From there work with Waifu purifying the surrounding area and planting seeds for food. Sending Brown Minion Heedra out for supplies. Other companions tasked as needed. Focus on getting the egg safe and hatched as quickly as possible. Stay mobile if possible, see if we cant transport the egg with us or secure it if need be. Survive by trying to be where skyscraper tall mechs aren't.

Possibly stealing a cargo ship or something, getting the egg aboard and then going mobile around the oceans.

>>53118887
>The Drop In capstone is pretty much what the hidden power of one of the empires (Dorok) has, if a bit more powerful
You know what other advantage Miralupa had vis-a-vis controlling the empire? Being born the emperor's son. That doesn't mean any random country bumpkin with the same skill and powerset can achieve the same thing.

>His brother eventually shanked him and regained control, he had the Worm Handler capstone.
Being a Heedra himself was a lot less useful than having an army of Heedra backing him. No individual normal Heedra is a force that can destabilize an empire on its own.

>Nausicaa was able to be regarded as a heroic figure straight from prophecy thanks to the rough equivalent of the Valley Dweller capstone and the Forest People capstone would have you straight up revered as a god by 80% of people in this setting
So having companions who can easily become a messianic figure for 100CP apiece is fine, but that same companion for 50CP is horridly broken?

>>53118998
It isn't that it's /horribly/ broken, just that it isn't at a level that I was happy with for the jump. Again, if you want to change things, feel free to make your own variant of it.

Heck, should enough people do so we can have a little Nausicaa folder with different editions for people to choose from.

>>53119037
Do you even pay attention to the community or does your dumb ass just have no filter?

>>53119037
>Heck, should enough people do so we can have a little Nausicaa folder with different editions for people to choose from.
Have you been keeping up with /jc/ for the past like two years or so?

>>53118070
This jump reads like a low quality jump made in 2014.

Get rid of number based drawback limits, choose a CP based limit.

No, your super spechial whatever is not worth more than 1,000 CP.

Get over it and add companion import options. It is integral to most jumpers needs nowadays. If you think 8 more people break the setting, you probably shouldn't be the one making the jump.

> (or does she already do both?)
She kinda does. The four elements are more like generic representations of themselves. It's just the rings don't really have enough power to represent the disaster side of things.
The kids still fuck shit up on a localized scale pretty frequently, though. All the shit you see in the intro -- shooting up huge spikes of rock, localized whirlwinds that can pick up a car, that's all shit the rings do on an average day.
Honestly half the time summoning Captain Planet is extreme overkill for whatever they're trying to do.

That said if you really want to go into natural disaster territory, that's exactly what the Iron Fists do. They're based off an episode where the God of War shows up, gives the kids all iron gauntlets with stronger powers, and just tells them to have at it. They're able to do absolutely sick amounts of damage with them, but they start becoming more megalomaniac as a direct result and willing to use that power as a response to small shit.
Only the Heart kid chooses not to use his, and he ends up being the one to bring the other kids back to the side of good and not exploding shit just because it's in their way.

Are there any other jumps like Sburb where you can become a god by accomplishing some task? Not just being granted it by other gods, but earning it like that. Or like the Test of the Starstone from Pathfinder.

>>53120078
There's a couple different cultures in creation it's just all filtered through a weeb lens.

Like the south is basically arabian nights and the west is pirates of the caribbean this time with more demons.
It really depends where you are, but the closer you are to the center the more weeb it's going to get.

Well, you're Destined to be a Heroic Mortal even if you don't actually take any of the Destinies and only get CP from drawbacks (which is fucking stupid, by the way), so... better odds than you'd expect considering how expendable mortals are in the game. But still worse odds than an actual mortal would have of living a full life without seeing any real danger.

>>53120265
Mortal Hero Gauntlet is one of those things where if you don't know exactly what it is you're getting into you're prolly going to get pasted. It's hyperlethal, but if you know what you're doing it's not that bad. You just can't expect to roll over everything as a mortal.
Protip: Ranged combat is your best friend.

There's no real overarching plot in the same way that the world of darkness doesn't have a plot. By that I mean there's half a dozen apocalypses ready and raring to go but they won't actually start until the person running the game decides they do. You "probably" don't need to deal with it, but a lot of the prep work is enough to be a bother.
Demonic cults don't normally let people go when they get found out.

That and creation is normally filled with all kinds of monstrous bullshit which only gets worse the farther away from civilization you get. If you've got options due to your perks combat isn't suicide, but you'll want to avoid it as much as you can.

Assuming no reponsibilities you could lead a normalish life if you don't mind knowing your place and keeping your head down in the more civilized places in the world.
Lookshy ain't a bad place to start if you know your shit with regards to magitech.

That's pretty much what I was saying, yes. It's not a bad jump overall, but it could still use some polish here and there.

>>53120395
Not that bad actually. The guys that are strong at the start generally remain so and simply show more of their power over time. The strongest beings in the setting have generally been so for centuries and centuries of time and everyone is playing catch up. For a shounen, it's quite good with it's escalation.

>>53120364
Sort of, not really though. You see you are a heroic mortal, which is like being an exalt without the cool powers. As you might imagine this is hazardous to your health in the extreme. Sure you are better off than other mortals but that just means that you are a mouse instead of an ant to the more powerful beings in the world. Harder to squish but not by much and they are a great deal more likely to bother squishing you than any individual ant.

This along with the fact that you'll be dragged into "interesting" events by fate is a bit of a problem.

My advice is to take the Solar and Lunar Daughterus, they make things more "interesting" but having celestial exalted on your side is a big deal even if they are children. The CP from that can buy you something nice and let you import a good weapon or armor to protect you from the worst of it.

Alright, let me lay out the cultures for you. This mostly includes racially too:

Blessed Isle is China.

Scavenger Lands are Asia in general.

The East is Amerindians.

The West is Polynesia and Chinese pirates.

The South is mostly Arabia, with some Africa.

The North is Europe and Conan the Barbarian.

The Southeast is straight up Africa.

That's it for distinct cultures, but before you ask:

The Northwest is more West, then more North. Not unique by itself.

Same with the Northeast, it's Conan interacting with some Canadian Taiga people influenced by Lunars.

Southwest is Lintha. Basically part-demon incest pirates. There's also an inhabited strip of land separated from the rest of the southern continent by some mountains that's mostly jungle, but I don't think we're EVER given a description of what the people there are like.

>>53120490
If someone is an exalt, do not attempt to fight them on your own for any reason.
Even if they're "just" a dragonblood.

Maybe if you have some horribly min maxed build or super bullshit imported armor going into the fight, but mortals just straight up lose to exalts.

The Hundred Kingdoms, which is North-East of Lookshy but not super North-East, has tons of different cultures. You could easily have Knights, Barbarians, or Spartans there.
Not so much Pirates, that's entirely for the West.

>>53120490
If anyone ever tries to communicate with you in any way, immediately kill yourself before they can inflict identity death on you. Exalted has diplomancy as an in setting power.

>>53120538
You could, but the Hundred Kingdoms is still mainly Asian-themed. You could swing people running around in plate armor but I wouldn't go full Europe. That's the North's thing.

Creation is a very diverse place.

You can shut down social combat by spending some will and telling them to fuck off.
You're also expecting every single supernatural being in setting to have social charms, which they don't.
You're also implying that you can't "fight" back in social combat by arguing agaisnt whatever is being said or at worst just slamming your hands over your ears and running.

I know you like to overstate how social combat is mindrape every time it comes up, but it's really just a poorly done measure of quantifying debate into a game system.

You're a Heroic mortal with Awakened Essence. You are allowed to resist an Exalt, and since you are 90% of the time going to be dealing with a Dragonblood whose Essence is no higher than your own, you aren't being dominated by someone infinitely better than you.

Anon, you literally don't know how social combat works. In exalted, there is no significant difference between talking to someone and beating the shit out of them until they bend the knee. In both cases, you are taking away their capacity for agency and forcing them to do what you want. An Exalt can walk up to someone and just tell them to sell their children into slavery and the other person will do it because that's how social interactions work in exalted.

>>53120758

Across the world, five teenagers (who may or may not be with attitude) gain elementally-aligned rings, a sense of where each is, and the knowledge that they can be something... more.

Across the world, a number of people wake up with foreign tongues in their mind, and find they have the ability to transmute matter, uplift animals as their familiars, and create tools to manipulate eldritch energies readily.

Across the world, a musical language embeds itself in sleeping minds, and in a distant corner of the ocean, a tower begins to grow toward the heavens.

Across the world, in dark corners, rituals speak of dark obscenities and for the first time in memory are answered by a mark burnt into their skin and arcane energies abruptly at their disposal.

Across the world, many find themselves suddenly inspired to invent things that they never had imagined before.

Let the dead husk of the Deparmtent of Unified Protection come. Conduits are the LEAST of their concerns now.

If you lost all your perks, how much Willpower will you have? Integrity? Presence? Even if you assume normal training from other jumps has left you with maxed out stats, you're one Presence Excellency away from an attack that could cost 3+ willpower to resist. And it's natural mental influence, so getting your mind control immunity perks back in your next jump won't undo it.

And Incarnae help you if that "Dragon-blooded" is a Celestial Exalt in disguise. Or a member of the Wyld Hunt who wants to kidnap you and brainwash you into the Immaculate Faith so you'll turn in your Anathema allies. Or someone figures out how your chain works and makes corrupting you a priority.

Can you really trust She of Fair Eyes not to be training social Charms in secret so that she can co-opt you before the tables turn and you become stronger than her?

Exalts who are supernaturally persuesive running on charms can maybe do that after a long argument.
The person in question would also have to not be capable of essence use and unable to resist that magic as well as having his will broken through excessive abuse.

It isn't a thing that literally anybody can do by opening their mouth in someones general direction.

Not quite. It's suicidal, which is slightly different.
One means you can't order someone to hang themself, but can order them to go fight a Solar when they are a Mortal.
The other means you can't do either.

Basically anything they think could end in their death is an UO

You're really moving those goalposts hard there.
You went from calling casual mindrape something everyone in setting can do to something that only a select few godlike people can do.

Even then you must be a very paranoind person to think that everyone is going to social fu you at any opportunity.
You must not have very many friends.

>>53120265
>Speaking of Exalted... How survivable is the Mortal Hero Gauntlet?
A Mortal is low on the totem pole of the setting. Now many can live long lives, but to get anything good you need to take drawbacks to get CP to spend, and most of the stuff draws attention to you. It is a trade off, getting CP to become more powerful vs attracting the attention of Gods, Exalts, and other power things in the setting.

There are some things you can to if you are really familiar with the setting, like using stuff from one complication to protect you from other complications. If you don't know a lot about the setting, one thing you can do to help you out is take the Weapon/Armor import option, if one of those is really OP, like you have Iron Man Bullshit level armor you can just live in for ten years, especially if it can disguise itself while it is worn.

And don't be afraid to run away. Exalted does not really have long range teleportation or fast travel outside of fixed a few fixed portals to Heaven you can cut through.

>>53120929
>And don't be afraid to run away
Unless you piss off a Lunar. They have a charm that makes them faster than the person they are chasing.

No really how fucking stupid do you have to be to tell someone that in fucking Exalted of all places?

And why the fuck would a little girl be assaulting her Ally and potentially only companion with the social equivalent of a bludgeon?
Your whole theoretical just doesn't make sense.

>>53120925
Because it's part of the intrinsic mechanics of creation that social interactions are literally fights for dominance, with the loser being at the total mercy of the winner. People are summed up by there intimacies and their Motivation, they aren't anything else as far as social interaction is concerned, and an exalt can change all that however they fucking please.

>>53120925
That "select few" includes huge portions of the endless hordes of Raksha around Creation's borders, many of the millions of spirits who live in Creation, tens of thousands of Dragon-blooded, and a few hundred Celestials.

An average person is unlikely to have to worry about it. But there are many drawbacks that make it likely or even guarantee that you'll be meeting people from those groups. Worse, you can't tell who is a normal person and who is a magical being pretending to be a normal person.

No they aren't.

>>53120883
Ah, burning down the guild will be a fun time.

>>53120963
You don't have to tell them. They can figure it out on their own. Exalts aren't just Hercules and Cao Cao, they're also Sherlock Holmes. All you need is one person hitting you with an Investigation Charm and reading a Motivation/Intimacy that makes it obvious you ain't normal in order to draw attention to yourself.

>>53120982
To be fair, the Great Curse means the daughteru in question is fated to go mad with power.

>>53120973
So it's a game mechanic?
Why are you getting so upset then when it's the same kind of sillyness that results in housecats being a serious threat for grown men in D&D?

>>53120880
The only real reason for She of Fair Eyes to do that is when she inevitably realizes how frail you are by comparison and decides to force you to stay out of harms way. This is a problem but your daughteru isn't going to be hostile towards you.

>>53120995
And thus you have learned the secret. The thing 4chan hates the most, is itself.

>>53121015
The Great Curse takes centuries to come into effect outside of Limit Break.

>>53120952
>Unless you piss off a Lunar.
There is also a Adorjan charm that does that, and a Sidereal one in Quicksilver hand of dreams.
But remember not every Exalt has every possible charm available to them, and there only 700 Celestial Exaltation in all creation. So running is still a smart play. You should have done it before you pissed of the Lunar for example.

>>53121016
One of the many powers of the Exalted is super charisma, jumpers know how useful that is and are instinctively paranoid about the possibility of someone else having it and using it on them.

Social combat is just a game mechanic but it represents something that is a real threat, though anon's fear of it is a bit exaggerated.

>>53121004
The Guild is an institution of Greed and Evil. I have no problem ripping it out of Creation like a weed.

>>53121015
>To be fair, the Great Curse means the daughteru in question is fated to go mad with power.
That's not how the Great Curse works. The Great Curse effects each type of Exalt in a manor appropriate to the Thematics of the Exalt type. Becoming a Solar makes everything that was Good about you Great, the Great Curse makes what was Bad Worse.

TLDR:You're not gonna turn into a mind-rapey monster via the GC, unless there were already seeds of that in your personality.

So, Spyro... I don't really know a lot about this world, but he's pretty distinctive. Apparently there's some sort of evil corrupted dragon hanging about, wrecking havoc as evil corrupted dragons are wont to do. I guess I'll help Spyro out if I can, and lie low if shit starts to hit the fan.

Having the dragon alt-form is nice; it gives me a trump card if things start to get heated, without really affecting my base form.

Friendly reminder that normally you can't social combat in exalted when someone is fighting you in regular combat.
If someone tries to get you to do something stupid punching them in the shnoz is a viable tactic.

Given that you can get the ability to social combat while fighting in the jump itself. You should never be at a disadvantage while talking to someone so long as you keep punching them.

Truth, a round of Social Combat takes about 5 minutes if I remember correctly, under normal circumstances.
Combat takes place in 'ticks' which are about a second.

>>53121133
No. I'm afraid of the setting full of horrible mind-rapists who regularly brainwash mortals into their cultists or slaves, not that Cardcaptor Sakura is going to murder me for no reason.

>>53121019
I can imagine her starting a big fight over the jumper wanting to be protective or the frontline combatant about five years in, when she'll be comfortably in her teens and hitting the rebellious stage.

What's the minimum violence requirement? I have no interest in Exalted and have no idea how Social Combat works, but the idea of pinching someone's cheeks or lightly slapping them being a viable counter strategy to something that could prove lethal amuses me.

>>53121143
Just checked by books. Combat takes place in 'ticks', which last a second each. Social Combat takes place in 'long ticks', which last a minute each.
So yeah.

>>53121185
That would be long ticks, about a minute of time, which is how mass combat *Shudders* reads things.

>>53121187
But then they could knock me out, tie me up, and force me to listen to them for a few days. Then I'm fucked. Suicide is really the safest option.

>>53121205
You can just punch them, it's an Unarmed Attack and counts as Combat.

>>53121220
Mass Combat isn't THAT bad. ....OK it is, but I like the idea of it damn it.

What are some of the things you do when hanging out with your companions? Here are a few of mine

It needs to be enough to interrupt someone from trying to say what they're saying.
A punch is good, and doing something enough to make their mouth stop running ought to do just fine.
A heavier slap should do, but pinched cheeks is probably too light.

Yeah that might work too, just strike to Mark actually!.

Now here's the question for the paranoid one.

What makes YOU so much more important than the other dude standing over there that the Exalt's gonna focus on social combat'ing you.

You are literally an ordinary human.

>>53121315
As I said you could strike to Mark, which is something you can try in canon so a dinozzo slap should do the job. The in fact is a style with a focus of attack dealing no damage, it's called White Veil. It's a FUN Terrestrial Martial Art.

>>53121304
Barring bad luck, it's unlikely to happen to you as a regular guy. But the second you take any drawback that puts you in contact with the supernatural, the odds of someone targeting you go way up.

>>53121305
But people in other gauntlets lack the superhuman deductive capabilities to figure out that they should put in the effort to brainwash me.

Okay, this bugs me everytime I see it, but it's so much worse with Exalted considering White Wolf's travesty of a system.

Why the hell do people not have any concept of story and gameplay segregation. I know that the mechanics in a tabletop RPG are often one of the only ways to try and get any kind of concrete sense of what feats are possible in a setting, but I keep seeing people taking the worst and most nonsensical parts of the mechanics and treating them as inviolable as gravity.

I just don't get it at all. White Wolf especially is a damn trainwreck and my enjoyment of exalted as a franchise has it's biggest opposition in actually trying to wrestle with the constant fuck-ups, poor decisions, and in-built problems with the systems they make.

It just kinda boggles me that it's taken so literally here in JC where half the fun is you can imagine the actual setting and stuff without the constraints of a medium's mechanics.

>>53121341
>Hahahahahahahaha How The Fuck is Social Combat Real Hahahaha Nigga Just Walk Away From The Exalt Like Nigga Close Your Ears Haha

>>53121372
There's at least one guy who just hates Exalted and shits on it whenever possible, even lying/exaggerating to do so.

>>53121372
People are weird.

>>53121372
Because Exalted's Mechanics basically are equivocal to the laws of physics for that setting.

>>53121372
This is the correct way to do it, but since mechanics are "supposed" to emulate how things work that's all people have to go on sometimes.

I think most people just treat things as normal and try and avoid most of the crunch where it would be nonsensical, but then there's this where it's just an unfortunate consequence of how the system handles debate and it's rather difficult to reconcile how social charms even work without it.

Right. Resuming work on the World of Warcraft Update now that I'm not feeling like I've been hit by a shit brickhouse because of work. One last call for items, I got a shit-ton on hand already but there's a chance I coulda missed something. What items are you wanting to have added?

And now for the real reason I posted this, because there's a motherfucker who specifically asked and I know they're reading thread right about now. This is for you.

Lady Lissanna (300 CP):
“Yessss. Let my voice wash over your mind like a comforting embrace. Be at... eassssse.”
A sea witch is almost always in reverence to Queen Azshara, their faith to her and in the superiority of the naga race that which grants them power. Yet it is this odd one who instead thrives from her opposition - indeed, Lady Lissanna exists as one of the nigh non-existent rebels to Azshara’s rule. And for... one of the oddest reasons, too.
Indeed, her power seems to come from a newfound and deeply-felt love for none other than you, regardless of your form or face. She is gentle and kind to you, with even her mane of snakes being playful rather than fierce. To your foes, however, she brings to bear her full might as a sea witch of the naga, commanding arctic ice, ocean storm, and arcane power through song and gesture. In these situations she finds it very hard to hold back, if it means protecting you.
As well, she wields a bow carved from jade coral and the bleached bones of a forgotten beast, using it as a powerful spell focus and conjuring arrows made of pure lightning to nock. The coral still lives despite being above water, with portions of it pulsing and shimmering with a rainbow light along the bow’s surface. If tangled into melee combat, the bow’s jagged and rough edges also serve it well in melee - if a... bit clunky and awkward.

>pic very much related.

>>53121372
Exalted warping everyone around them with their superhuman charisma isn't just a gameplay thing. It's a part of the setting. The Immaculate Faith teaches Dragon-Blooded to be lenient to mortals who follow Ananthema because they literally lack the capacity to resist their temptations. One of the Cult of the Illuminated training centers' head teachers is already can't resist falling in love with one of the Solars she's training. Several young Solars/Abyssals/Infernals have already corrupted multiple kingdoms each and set up cults inside them.

The rules only make them as strong as the fluff implies they are.

That's not really how it works. Firstly, the act of social combat is the act of debate, through the lens of rules and mechanics, you can at any time decide not to Join Debate, actual term there. Now the Exalt can keep trying to open the debate again but as long as you refuse to even Join Debate he can't strike your Intimacies. Secondly, spending a Willpower will make it impossible without social charms, and more difficult with charms. Thirdly, are you sure you're not Paranoid-Anon?

Is there a halfway decent wiki for Exalted anywhere?
I can barely find any clear information about it on the Internet.
At this point, my greatest sources of information on Exalted are this thread and associated jumps, Keychain of Creation, and Exalted Slut Life.

Like, what are the different stats in the setting, and what would a 1 be the equivalent of? How does scale, what's the cap for humans and Exalts?

What about history? I know Primordials basically willed Creation into existence and used humans and other creatures as prayer batteries to generate more energy for them. And that eventually Autochthon got pissed off by his older Primordial siblings and created superweapons to give the gods when they rebelled, who handed them out to humans, and the Exalts completely wrecked the Primordials' shit so bad they turned into different things.
And then Autochthon felt super guilty and ran away, and is slowly rotting outside of Creation.
The Solars were arrogant and their civilization fell at one point, the fucked up Primordials are now called Yozi or Neverborn and have corrupted some Exaltations into Infernals and (I think) Abyssals.
And that's it.

Is that all there is?
Between dandwiki.com and forgottenrealms.wikia I can learn almost anything I need to know about D&D. But Exalted is as opaque as concrete.

Alright, this is still the 'simplified' version.

Once upon a time there was Chaos. Pure chaos, there was no form to anything. "within", for lack of a better term, this chaos dwelled beings. These beings were living stories, and could Shape the chaos to their desires. These beings would one day be known as "Raksha" and came in many sub-types, with Ishvara being the very strongest. Then, something new appeared. These beings were akin to the Raksha, but different. How these beings came to be is never made clear. They might have sprung up from nothing, they might have been Ishvara who Shaped themselves. We don't know. These were the first Primordials. These beings came together over time, and began to seek the "Shining Answer", the Question has never been revealed.

In search for the Shining Answer they created the First World, of whom's name I forget. It was not like Creation, it did not have solid Rules and Laws, it was more akin to the original Chaos. But then They came. The Trio of Law. Theion the Holy Tyrant, She Who Lives in Her Name lady of Hierarchy, and Ceycelene the Law. They crossed the oceans of Kimbery, who surrounded the First World, with her permission. They then usurped power from the existing King of Primordials. They then spoke of a world of Order, of Rules, of Law. A place with Laws laid found its' very foundation, laws that could not be changed. A stable Reality, anathema to the original Chaos.

Part 2 next.

The Primordials, now headed by Theion, began to craft Creation. Laying down the Laws that would be its' foundation. Some of the Primordials had more to offer to this process than others, with SWLiHN being in-depth into the actual Rules-creation process. One thing of note is that when the "Elements" where being decided Theion spoke up, one of the few times he did, and offered up an Element of his own creation to be one of the core Elements of Creation. Theion-to, an element of Mutation and Change, that would allow a being to overcome its' natural boundaries. In this we see some of the mentality of Theion, he believed that things should be able to rise above their station. The other Primordials, primarily Gaia, denied Theion-To as a core part of Creation. As they added more rules and laws to Creation, they found they needed a way to ensure everything continued to work properly. So they created the Gods, both the Terrestrial Gods to run individual matters, and the Celestial Gods to run large over-arching important matters. The greatest of the Gods would be the Incarne. Now this is where I am fuzzy on some things. The Incarne did not come into being through the normal method, but I'm not sure how. Sorry about that.

But now that Creation's Foundations were made, and the Gods were made to keep it running, they began to populate it with life. Most of this was done by about three Primordials. Autochithon created his own Mortal race, a race that could provide worship. Now Autobot was...different from his siblings. Many of the Primordials considered others to be 'kin', and were close to them. Autobot had no 'kin', and was often mistreated by the other Primordials. He made this mortal race to be his Kin. But Autobot has a curse, a Story tied to his existence that he can never be rid of. Autobot builds things, often these things will grow beyond his wildest expectations, and often they will betray him in some way. So did these mortals.

...I'm pretty sure Victorian London is the only part of that which should be homebrew.

Well, unless the actual Solar Exalted, and not the Solar Exaltations, were what was being corrupted into Abyssals.

The xi.co.nz wiki is almost entirely homebrew from what I can tell, but it's a neat place to mine for custom charms and such anyway.

They sought to become equal to the Primordials. This in and of itself would be acceptable, both to Autobot and to Theion. But they sought to do so by killing Autobot, and using his corpse to fuel their ascension. Their creator, their father, the one who made them to be his Kin, they sought to kill for their own gain. Autobot was ENRAGED, he took his World Body and turned it into a weapon, destroying their entire species in hours. But he did not stop there, he took their very Souls and bound them into Iron, where the metal became imprinted with their faces, forever screaming in agony. Thus the first 'Soul Steel' came to be. It was from this event one can see the depths Autobot will go to for revenge if pushed far enough, but it was a lesson the Primordials did not learn.

Autobot eventually began again, wanting Kin more than anything else in existence. So he crafted a new race, one of Jade. But this race, this race caught the eye of his 'siblings'. Gaia in particular. She took most of his Jadeborn, and changed them. Twisted them into something different, yet at their core the same. From this came Humanity. At first Autobot was disappointed. His creations twisted into something so different from him. Of Blood and Flesh, not Metal and Oil. But, humans might be flesh and blood. But we dream of machines. In human Autbot found the Kin he had long sought. We were so similar to him, in so many ways. We loved him, and he loved us in return. Though one must never forget, we might be similar to Autbot, but he is NOT human. He does not think as we do, even if it is similar. But it is that similarity that provides the danger, because we can be fooled into thinking he likes as we do.

The hell is Exalted Slut Life?

>>53122137
/cyoag/ has a cyoa called slut life which is about becoming a super slut.
There's an exalted version which is much better depending on who you ask, but it's still pretty much the same kind of thing.
I don't know what you expected it to be.

>>53121592
Well they would have a "leg" but its more like there's no leg. Assuming their skeletal system is similar to a snake's, then they wouldn't have any hips. Instead it's just ribs & spine. Maybe vestigial hips, but mostly ribs & spine.
The cloaca of a reptile & bird are basically their urethra, anus & vagina combined. So it's like doing anal & vaginal at same time. Plus she'd probably have ton of muscle control.

>>53122171
Oh i thought it was another one of those actual books made by White Wolf... like Exxxalted.

Seems so. Theion wanted to give mortals the potential to not suck, but everyone else stonewalled him.

Oh. They weren't humans. They were living bags of dicks.

From what I remember...

The Maidens just started existing one day. They were the clear craftsmanship of the Primordials, so they took their existence as a sign that they would one day build them in the future, and that their rulership of Creation would be unquestioned.

The Primordials as a whole... or just The Ebon Dragon, it is a bit unclear, created the Unconquered Sun to illuminate the world in a gentler way than Ligier (and maybe Theion's other Fetich?) did. UCS was a chump at the time, so The Shadow of the Dragon got really buff and everpresent due to UCS casting shadows with his light (where Theion's Hearts simply shined through everything), and Theion took pity on him, powering him the fuck up with his own unbridled Perfection. This later bit him in the ass.

Luna was made by Oramus taking many- MANY- impossible moon gods from the Beyond and placing them in a jar, so that the greatest would seduce, devour, or otherwise assimilate all the others and become the best lunar deity possible for Creation. This was partly done for Luna's regular duties of fucking the Wyld's shit up and protecting Creation from Fae, but also partly done so that she could seduce Gaia and keep her tied to Creation with that hot bod.

...I think. Might be getting some stuff confused due to Luna seducing Gaia with the Moonsilver Pantaloons.

>>53122097
Autobot made the prototype being that he'd base Jadeborn on, and the other Primordials stole, tore this prototype apart, and then based humans on him.

Autobot nor this prototype hate humans for it, though. They both kind of like them for this kinship they have. The prototype hates Exalted for some reeason, though.

>>53122097
Yes, but this first race was not Humans. They were more akin to Dwarves, or the Dwemer from Elder Scrolls.

>>53122135
Aye.

>>53122136
During this time period other Mortal races came into being, the only ones of note being the Lintha(children of Kimbery), and the Dragon Kings, who were only 'Mortal' in a very specific sense. The Dragon Kings ruled Creation, ruling the other Mortals. They were the favored of Sol Invictus, and he was their primary God. But also during this time...conflict began to brew between the Primordials, and the Gods. Primarily the Incarne. Here the canon waffles. Some records say the Incarne became disgusted with how mercurial the Primordials were, how they destroyed vast amounts of Creation, butched mortals, or did whatever they wanted with no regards to the consequences. On the other hand, some records state the Incarne hungered for the Games of Divinity, and sought those with everything else mere excuses. Never the less they came to desire to overthrow the Primordials, but they could not. One of the fundamental Laws of Creation was that the Created could not disobey their Creators. They Incarne could attack, but the second they were ordered to stand down they would be forced to.

Autobot though had grown more angered by his 'siblings', the love he was shown by Humanity only served to highlight his mistreatment at the hands of the other Primordials. He heard the Incarne's plan, and came to them. He would craft something that would allow the Law of Obedience to be broken. But they would need another Primordial to back them if they wanted to have a chance. So Autobot went to work in inventing the Exaltations. The 'Alchemicals' are actually a proto-type of the Exaltation we are familiar with. But he crafted them, perfect things that could attach to a Human, for Autobot loved humanity, soul and enhance it. While Autbot did this the Incarne sought allies, they found only one. When Luna seduced Gaia to their side.

>>53122257
He was literally incapable of thinking other people's opinions mattered, but the opinions he did have were pretty swell.
Shame about the whole inversion business.

>>53122018
Wasn't Theion basically their omnipotent god-king whose word was absolute? ...why didn't they let him put the magic growth element in Creation, exactly?

>>53122265
Because fuck the Incarne?

>>53122281
Probably something like the Spiral Nemesis.
High amounts of essence use already destabilizes the foundation of creation, throwing even more at the problem would have probably turned it into spaghetti.

>>53122257
In fairness, I think he wanted it because it would make him look even cooler if they evolved and still obeyed him.

Maybe? It could just be him being butthurt about the oaths the Exalted made the Jadeborn swear after the battle out of paranoia, though. These same oaths tore the Jadeborn apart and split their power among three different castes too.

And so Autobot came to the Incarne with his creations. His 10,720 Exaltations. 300 were given to Sol Invictus to empower with his own Perfection. 300 were given to Luna to empower with her own changing nature. 20 given to each of the Sisters of Fate, 6 sisters in all(some texts claim a brother, but that doesn't matter for this story right now). 2,000 each given to the Elemental Dragons, each one a Third-Circle Deva of Gaia. These became the Solars, the Lunars, the Sidereals, and the Dragonblooded. Each crafted to serve a specific purpose. The Solars would rule as the Kings of Creation when the war was over, the Lunars would be their right hand and were bound to them, the Sidereals would be assistants to the Sisters and advisors to the Solars, and the Dragonblooded would be the armies the Solars would wield.

They made their Exalted, and then they waited. They took time to teach and train them before the war would begin, to allow the Dragonblooded to breed and increase their numbers. They made excuses to the Primordials, they were 'just' empowered Mortals, used to help the Incarne in their duties. But eventually the war began. It was a brutal, terrible war. Creation was forever scared by it. Many a land-scape in Creation is the result of this war, as things were torn apart or blasted away.

But eventually, the Exalted began to win. They began to KILL Primordials, beings that could not die, that had no concept of Death. It was in this moment that Theion doubted, when he saw his subjects being slain he doubted himself for just a moment. And that doubt was all the Exalted needed to bring him down. Theion, at the suggestion of SWLiHN, surrendered. Him and the remaining Primordials were convinced they would be treated fairly if they surrendered. They were wrong. The Exalted tortured and mutilated the Primordials, twisted them into the Yozi we know today.

In like the idea, sue me. Besides 2 Sidereals per circle makes more sense than 1.6.

>>53122386
Theion became Malfeas, and the Theion-To that dwelled within his World Body became Vitriol. The Yozi were then bound in their Surrender Oaths, like chains they could never hope to break, and were shoved into their King, as a prison.

Also I realized I skipped a bit, during the war one of the Sisters of Fate died, and those 20 Sidereal exaltations were lost forever.

Anyway, the Exalted had one. The Celestal Gods left Creation proper for Yu-shan, what had been the home of the Primordials, leaving the Blessed Isle for the Exalted. But something was happening that no one would be able to comprehend the consequences of for millennia. The Neverborn, the dead Primordials, were beginning to go into a deep Slumber, and with their final moments of wakefulness they cast a Curse at the architects of their destruction, the Incarne. But the Incarne were far too powerful for this Curse, and they deflected it. What they did not realize was that the Curse sought out the next best target, the beings filled with the Essence of the Incarne. The Exalted.

I try. '<

>>53122018
Sol was created when The Dragon's Shadow (the Ebon Dragon as a Pimordial) talked to Theion about a neat idea had for this super cool being of holy light that would kick tons of ass and be awesome, which Theion readily agreed to. So those two, with some help from others I don't recall, made Sol by stoking a fire until it was too hot even for Theion to touch.

TDS' motivation for this was probably that, since even then his power was defined by contrasts, creating a being of powerful purity and light would help define him and make him even stronger too.

Anyway, Luna was made when Gaia and some other Primordials decided they needed a super monster that was really good at killing Rashka. So they made a pocket dimension where they caused countless beasts to be born and have to fight and fuck to survive through countless eons, and they took the last standing create and made it Luna. The other Pimordials also interfered and made sure the result would be sexy and charm Gaia so she'd stop wandering around the Wyld so much and stay in creation.

The Five Maidens literally appeared out of nowhere one day. The Primordials assumed it was time travel and one of them must have made them in the future and sent them back, but nobody could figure out anything beyond that. It seriously creeped them out.


And that's where Incarnae come from.

What would happen if you went into Creation with a perk that caused Fate to unravel around you?

>>53122441
But, Nox CAN be real, if you want him to be. Unless they later went and said MoEP: Sidereals' little bit on what Oversight actually is doesn't fly no more. Then I guess I'll sit in the fuckboy corner or something.

Him actually getting Exaltations of his own is a bit too much into assumption territory tho.

>>53122386
Wait, the Elemental Dragons are Gaia's Souls?

Does that mean that elementals are really just demons?

>>53122533
Bad things.
Things like a traveller at an intersection deciding to go left and right at the same time.
Or someone falling off their house but also not simultaneosly.
People turning into ducks. Mass hysteria.

Fate in exalted is causality. I guess you could wank it so that you'd be outside of fate and that you'd also make anyone around you also outside of fate.
That's not so bad, but you should be careful that you don't fall asleep in one place and end up at the top of a mountain 20 miles away.
