fighting deathlords

Most certainly, one of my favorites. Especially how he shows up if he deems someone to have an ambitious enough project in crafting...
 
so lets say i am playing a nihilistic siddie who has a penchant for killing people and making love to there dead corpses and wants to take control of the realm himself and turn creation into a giant play ground for any sexual or violent fetish and dream one could ever want to act out. If he began taking steps for this... would Ligier appear?

Limiting it to published Charms effectively makes it useless as a model, in any case.
In particular, you can imagine an Essence 8 or 9 abyssal Lore or Occult charm that reflexively cancels charms, sorcery and combos far more efficiently than Sequential Charm Disruption. That single charm would totally change the nature of the FrivYeti/TonyC battle. Use it to cancel combos until opponents are out of willpower and they'd pretty much be toast.


Or, hell, an Essence 8 charm that sucks Willpower directly.
 
the necrophilia thing automatically makes you a object for the Neverborn?


dude that shit is totally evil. he doesnt like death, he just likes to see people suffer before he kills them. and he likes having sex with dead people not because he likes fuckin dead things, but because its better then having sex with a sheep since the corpses are  human... and its the only tang he can get.
 
To Lotus, that Siddie reminds me of a freaky one I saw on teh Freedom Stone forums. One of the artists drew something for a character like that, I'll have to find a link for you.


And yeah, it's mainly wearing each other down in the FaFL fight, which in a way...is kinda boring, makes for a great scene but boring combat unless one can think of some nice attack charms as well to liven it up.
 
dude its weird i have an account on the freedom stone but i never check it out much... its way to freakin pervy in there... even for me lol.


actually maybe its no so much pervy as it is that, its alot of work for people to get to know you. i dont think i would stand out much in there...


everyone else is as nasty as me.


no one would notice me. and it would take a while for me to become famous and a well known name in there.


like in here everyone knows the main players:


Still


Jak


Obsidian


Forn


QS


Lotus


Cthulhu


SiD


Starhawk


Haku


SZZZZZ


Wordman


in there i am a nobody, and i would have to reintroduce myself and let them get to know me and my personality... i am too lazy... and my internet too slow for all that shit.


last time i checked the website the comic was like on a stand still... but if they got a siddie... and a pervy one at that. then i am there!
 
Thing is, Exalted combat, once characters and NPCs have access to perfects, slow down dramatically. It rapidly becomes trench warfare, and management of resources.


 Which is why I suggest taking a gander at Borgy's latest non-Exalted project:


 Weapons of the Gods! (Eos Press; Google it)
 
Perhaps someday. The comic has been on stand still forever and yes there are a lot of people there. Can you believe Melissa Uran draws fucking porn for those people? It's wild. And a little weird. And yes, unless you're a regular, they hardly acknowledge you.

 You're missing Solfi, Hanat, and a number of our Old World kindred (Safim, the Irish contingent)...
 
who is melissa uran? and dont they know any of us? cus i sorta thought our forums were allies, i mean we use the same format, and from what i gather many of the regulars here are regulars there too.
 
Ah yes, the Irish Guard. Who can forget Samiel, I saw him ranting and raving the chatroom mere days ago...how the exams have addled his mind...
 
dude damn i forget, besides Americans ( this is an american forum), we have alot of irish and zealanders huh? hey they maybe from different countries but at least we all speak english right! and we all hate the brits ( i seriously doo man like we have three british guys at our school, we got along great at first... but those guys turn into assholes real quick)


they always refuse to participate in anything american... they think american cars are shit ( they are), and they claim " yea we cant play ultimate frisbee... we are too brit'ish.... :x
 
naw dude FC is a bad ass, i gave him props on my myspace


maybe i am generalizing and stereotyping... for that i apologize... * you bitches better not make a big deal about that, cus i know i never apologize for the rude things i say*


for the record when i went to london i had a splendid time, except with the english lady yelled at me and kept telling me "get in Cue" i am like wtf...


those brits at my school are trouble. two of the three are brothers. they are twins and the older one wanted to come to the US to get away from his druggie friends. the younger is the real asshole.


the other british dude is just a ass for who knows what reason.


regardless. FC you are cool in my book.

i was wondering if anyone has ever actually thought of what to use if you wanted to take on a deathlord in a direct conflict?
i always thought you would get


Kejak


Leviathan


Ahlat


Filial Wisdom


you think that any of them could do it?
In my own opinion, a Deathlord is only vulnrible to two things: The Absolute destructive effects of touching Oblivion, and crafty players.  


The way I've always pictured the demise of a Deathlord goes something like this:  Wearing down his willpower by challenging his Virtues until he comes to face you himself.  Of course, this also involves surviving his servants and long-range Necromantic assaults.  


But once you can get him into your place of battle, you're all set.  The circle has a special setup above the Pit of Oblivion it's self ( I believe there's one such hole in Stygian, as well as one in Each Deathlord Citidel...  whichever makes more sense).  A battle consisting of Knockback and "teleporty dodge charms" (like the Abyssal version, not the Solar kind) where the Warrior-types have a terminal velocity battle  with said Deathlord, and the caster-types use essence smothering charms to restrain the Deathlord...  


The hopeful ending of the fight sees the Deathlord falling victem to gravity and entering Oblivion, and the heroic solars in question hanging by a ledge fighting to climb out.  


The above looks a lot better in my storyboard  picture on paper...


-g3
 
Oh, I don't know...


 I suspect that should a Deathlord ever be stupid enough to come face to face with one of the Incarna, he could very well be permanently removed as well. Or the two remaining Primordials.


 Now, should a Yozi desire to annihilate a Deathlord, whether they could do so out of hand...is an interesting question.
 
The flavour text of... I think it is ghost eating prana states that it was used to kill primodials. primodials. I am sure anything able to finish of a primodial and toss his rotting carcass into the unterworld is strong enough to permanentely destroy a deathlord.
