Dice Exalted 2.5 - Sidereals OCC

[D. Rex]

My concept:
A Chosen of Serenity, who is a matchmaker made in Heaven, literaly. Focus on Crane Style as a CMA, and Sapphire Veil of Passion as the SMA.
She's not one to kill opponents. She prefers to have them married, and in love, with someone of her, or Heaven's, choice.

What book the sapphire veil of passion in?

 

[Red Shadow Claws]

Glories of the Most High: The Maidens

 

[Sherwood]

Sherwood A question, are we limited to maximum 3 dots with the 40 Ability Points?

Hmm. I'll go ahead and let everyone go to 5 without tapping into their Bonus Points. I'll add that to the character creation thread.

 

[Sherwood]

D. Rex Since you were asking about Sapphire Veil of Passion style, I posted it from the Glories of the Most High book for you to look at.

 

[Psychie]

I really like the Charms in Sapphire Veil. I may have to go with that one, too.

 

[Sherwood]

That's fine with me. I did say that there is no restrictions on who can take what Style, so long as you follow the guidelines, of course.

 

[D. Rex]

Given it's a 2.5. Would it be allowed to take traits from a 3e form harness to apply to a 2e firm charm?

Or, like with the world and lore, 2e books only is preferred.

There is a lot of materials available for 2e that I want to just stick with that for now.

 

[Sherwood]

I also need to add that if anyone gets Sorcery as a Charm, you get a spell for the Circle for free.

 

[Sherwood]

One more thing. The Sidereal Charm Ox-Body Technique sucks. I am house ruling that along with the -0 Health Level it gives, you also gain a -2 Level. I will add it to the Character thread.

Thank goodness. Would have left us pretty squishy.

So it's normally 15 favoured 20 general ability dots for a total of 35. If I understand correctly you added five dots worth of general abilities, and possibly made the 15 favoured dots general dots. Is that right?

Yes, so long as you still follow the required Ability scores for your particular Caste.

 

[Sherwood]

Upon further reflection, I have decided that since I am requiring you to have at least the Form Charm of a SMA, I will not make you pay for it, and you can use those Charms in other places. I'll make the edit to the Character Creation rules now.

 

[Psychie]

Sweet! That frees up seven more Charms for me to put somewhere.

 

[Psychie]

I am debating on which CMA I should go with. My initial thought was to use Violet Bier of Sorrows, but I'm not sure. Anyone have thoughts on this?

 

[Sherwood]

VBoS is a good style, nice and solid. It has the added benefit of being only taught to the Sidereals, so no other kinds of Exalts will be able to have it.

 

[Psychie]

True. But I'm still pondering my options.

 

[Sherwood]

That is fine. We have lots of time to get characters finalized.

Knowing your concept would help in suggesting suitable CMAs.

 

[Psychie]

Still forming that in my head.

 

[Sherwood]

Ok, just to double check on the number of players I have committed here so I don't get overwhelmed with too many people.

We have:
Red Shadow Claws
Psychie
D. Rex
jaydude
Random Word

Is this everyone?

 

[Psychie]

Well, I'm in for sure.

 

[jaydude]

I'm in as well.

 

[Psychie]

I have an Endings Caste, and I see we have a Secrets and a Battles. If we get a Serenity and a Journeys, we'll have a Perfect Circle.
