Dreams of the Second Age

[Seeker of the End]

I'm a bit sad there's no Lunars in this game though.

 

[PirateLexi]

That's ok, we can just get the talky talky to get beast men. And if that doesn't work I'll just threaten them with a plague.

 

[Seeker of the End]

Zen actually hates the bond, he's seen it abused too many times in the case of Lilith and among others. In his opinion, it's just another form of essence-reinforced slavery rather than a partnership like it was originally intended.

 

[PirateLexi]

Well i was talking about convincing them with a rousing speech, followed by a plague that causes all their fur to fall out.

 

[Seeker of the End]

... No thank you. Have you seen furless dogs or cats? Plus you'd probably piss all of them off.

 

[JayTee]

I actually kinda like how we only have one non-solar. Makes it easier for a conversion if we decided to do so once 3e comes out.

 

[Sherwood]

True. I am sooo looking forward to the new book.

 

[JayTee]

Apparently there will be rules for playing elder exalts in the corebook, so the conversion might be pretty easy.

 

[PirateLexi]

Hmm I'll have to rethink my plague strategy. Maybe one that makes them all grow nose tentacles.


Or......OR......hear me out!


A plague that sits in wait for twenty years, and then turns them all into an oak tree.

 

[JayTee]

Oh yeah, I forgot how much this dice roller hated me when it came to exalted games. >.>;

 

[Seeker of the End]

Is there a difference between the Exalted roll and the regular roll on the dice options?

 

[PirateLexi]

The exalted one shows successes, and lets you set targets/willpower spending/etc.

 

[Seeker of the End]

Sweet. I'll make sure to do that next time.

 

[Sherwood]

The Exalted roll is what you want to use here. It gives you the option of changing the target number from 7 for those Sidereals, and it indicates successes for the roll, not just the total of the roll.

 

[JayTee]

My bad, I forgot about that option. I'll be sure to use it in the future (If I keep using this dice roller >.>)

 

[Sherwood]

If you use a different one, just make sure you provide me a link to see what you rolled. I don't want anyone to be accused of creative accounting with the dice, and having the rolls public takes care of that problem nicely.

 

[PirateLexi]

I should have taken more of the "Wtf" charms. For the lawls.

 

[Seeker of the End]

I hope I didn't take too much of a leap in knowledge to guess around how many years we've been in stasis. It seemed fairly obvious to me, from my character's point of view.

 

[Sherwood]

Not a problem.


 
I did not post the details of the past 1500 years, mostly because everyone in the game already knows them and that would be one hell of a long post to make if I did. With the effects of your Judges Ear, he comes across as truthful.

 

[Seeker of the End]

Speaking of which, does anyone have those Dragon-King awakening charms? Unfortunately I can only do army stuff, and most of the armor suits I have require essence.

 

[Rykon]

The rate this game is going is both refreshing in the activity, and horrifying in how easily and quickly I could get left behind =P


This should be fun.

 

[PirateLexi]

I'm enjoying it. I'm definitely not trying to let people fall behind though.

 

[Rykon]

Don't worry about it, we should be fine.


We gotta regain our old footing, though it's interesting to see how differently this round may turn out.

 

[Seeker of the End]

I'm regretting not having a Night Caste now... we need information ASAP. Any ideas on how we should proceed?

 

[JayTee]

I'm mostly putting myself on standby at the moment, as this is the third or fourth time I've been through this scene and I'd rather let the newcomers take all the fun ( )


As for gathering information, we do have a Sidereal on hand, and as far as the immediate area is concerned I can summon minions of the Eyeless Face to act as scouts for us.
