Nine gazes up at the sculpture. The strangeness of it, here amid the apparently untrodden sand and untrammelled nature, has a powerful effect on him. He has a vague idea it might be some kind of idol or religious effigy, and he searches his memories for more, trying to think back to his lost...

Nine circles lower, spreading his wide, white wings and coming to rest on a tall outcropping of rock. His yellow eyes take in his surroundings, and, seeing no-one, he hops down from his perch. Wings stretch, pinion feathers spreading and merging into fingers; white plumage ripples and blends...

Nine soars on a high, steady current of air. The call of the winds and the ocean is strong, but his own body is calling to him now, louder and more insistently. He feels the ache in his wings, the heat of the sun on his back, the thirst in his throat and the hunger in his belly. Nine surveys the...

Jackal nods, as though the Duchess's support is only his right and proper due. Now I see why all the Dragon-bloods I ever met were so far up themselves. All this deference could go to a man's head. Aloud, he says, "If you wish to aid me, perhaps you can tell me who Romeo associated with...

The thrusting allows you to do as much damage, under certain cirumstances, as the blunt end. But given the usual difference between lethal and bashing soak, I guess that's about right. I wasn't complaining so much as wondering.

"What did he--" Jackal shakes his head. "No, I'm sure you don't want to talk about all that." He leans a little closer. "Actually, there are people in House Nellens who would like a little talk with Romeo about his... activities. He's been bringing disruption and embarrassment in other places...

BTW, is it intentional that it's more effective to use the blunt end unless you specifically want to do lethal damage?

Ooh - free Excellencies are always good. How did I miss that? :question: BTW - Wanderer's weapon is a wrackstaff, which is from SotM - let me know if you want to make any changes to its stats.

Jackal grins knowingly at the Duchess. "It seems that whatever His Holiness lacks in the sense of humour department, he more than makes up for in piety. Nothing wrong with that, I suppose. It's just a shame he has such a large stick wedged up his most important chakra." Before the Duchess can...

Jackal laughs. "From what I hear of him, the only thing he worships is himself." He composes his face into a more serious expression. "As I said, your Holiness, I seek out interesting people - in fact, my House demands it of me. This Romeo is said to be a great swordsman, for a mere mortal. And...

Jackal raises an eyebrow, hoping his racing thoughts don't show on his face. Typical - I would have to run into an Abbot of the Immaculate Order. Definitely a Dragon-Blood, too. Aloud, he said, "It's a custom I happen to be rather grateful for." He racked his brains, thinking of the few...

Jackal approaches the Duchess, where she is talking with one of the Immaculate monks. He listens for a moment, to catch whether they are speaking High Realm or Riverspeak, then barges in with a superior smile. "Your Holiness." He gives the monk a respectful bow - not deep, but not insultingly...

Jackal looks around at the gathering, putting on an expression of faintly disdainful interest, like a man inspecting a particularly interesting species of insect he's just discovered floating in his wine glass. «Where is the Duchess?» he asks, in High Realm. «I've never met a Duchess before...

So - details on my albatross-martial artist, Nine Winds Wanderer. Give me a couple of days and I'll fill in a bit more detail on his past, his mentor, how he Exalted, how he got his tattoos and his heartstone, but here are most of the relevant stats. Favoured attributes/abilities are in bold...

OK - I've put in a new version of my old post. @Loki_83 - love the dance correspondence course :D

OK - post deleted, and I meant to put the text of that post (spoilered) here for discussion but I seem to have managed to delete it. Balls, as the Duchess might say. OK, so basically the plan was for Jackal to swan in pretending to be an arrogant DB and hope the Duchess falls at his feet and...

Well, I'm still an Exalted noob (I've got Solar characters in a couple of PbP games here and elsewhere), but I'd quite like to try playing a Lunar. I'll throw my silvery shapeshfting hat into the ring. Since it's a Western setting, I'm thinking of a sort of man-with-no-name wandering hero whose...

(We apologise for the break in transmission and now return you to your regular Gidled Jackal post...) Jackal surreptitiously adjusts the jade armour he's wearing. Dynastic armour may have adjustable straps, but attuning to jade feels like wearing a coat made of wasps. Still, wearing it without...
