Fantasy Exalted 2.5 or 3e Sidereal game 1x2

[Sherwood]

I had originally planned to run this game with another player, but she decided to back out.

This game is a higher level of Essence than the typical starting game. You are an Established Exalt using Dreams of the First Age creation rules with a starting Essence of four and 27 Charms. You also get one complete Celestial Martial Art style for free so you have the needed prerequisite Charms to be able to start with a Sidereal Martial Art.

Once someone expresses an interest I'll link the OOC and character thread here so you can see all the details on the attributes, abilities and backgrounds that are different from base.

Edit: I can also give this a try in 3e of that is more appealing.

Sherwood Hey Bud? Maybe post a little about the world you're playing in, people one might meet, challenges that might be faced, and rewards that might be found (that'sa lotta might!)? Maybe that'll generate interest? I mean... besides the powers and such, what's the point of the game? Why adventure here? That's what players like to know sometimes, right? =)

Good luck! =)

Honor and fun,
Dann =)

I can add some details.

I have a Return of the Scarlet Empress game planned, where the player character is one of the last surviving Sidereal Exalted left after the surprise attack on the Fivescore Fellowship. You would be trying to establish a resistance against the Demon Empress, rallying the Exalted of Creation in a desperate effort to stop her from opening up a portal to Malfias and bringing the Ebon Dragon out of his prison.

As I posted earlier, this was originally planned for a 2.5 edition game, but I'm willing to adapt it to 3e instead.

I'd definitely be up to play a 2.5e game. I've been looking for one for a long while.

How much experience do you have with Exalted? Just so I have a good idea of what to expect.

I’m pretty familiar with the lore, and know the mechanics well enough to homebrew things that others have not immediately declared horribly broken, but have never actually gotten a chance to play, since the one 2.5 game I found before this flopped, while 3e/Essence eschew those parts that I most enjoyed.

 

[Sherwood]

Cool deal. Give me a bit to make up an OOC thread and we can bring the discussion there.

Excellent. Any existing houserules/homebrew I should be aware of?

One house rule in 2.5 that I use is if you pick one of the Sorcery Charms, you get a spell of that Circle for free.

The OOC thread is up.

Would this be play by post or voice?

Were you interested in joining in?

 

[keeperofkore]

Potentially yes. To be clear you are using the sma as written not any of the fan rewrites?

 

[Sherwood]

That is correct that we are not using the rewrites.

 

[keeperofkore]

I do love sidereals and enjoy rotse. Are you open to homebrew martial arts charms?

Not for this.

 

[keeperofkore]

So I could not make expansions for throne shadow style?

 

[Sherwood]

No. I hate custom Charms.

 

[keeperofkore]

Would astrology charms be opened since this is around the lotus massacre?

 

[Sherwood]

I will think on that, but it is likely that I'll ok them.
