Howlin' at the moon (OOC thread) [Lunar Fury]

My friend ordered for me the Exalted board game 'War For the Throne'.


I can't wait to tear it open and get a game going!
 
Now that the hollidays are winding down, lets see if we can get the game moving again. Or, should I wait until after January 1?
 
Yeah, the whole 'family' thing seems to have taken its toll. The game should get rolling once the new year has come.
 
I should give you points just for the chuckle factor of that one, Laundreu. Too funny. :lol:
 
Tome is the next one up in the fight that I'm waiting on. I'm going to give everyone another week to get over the insanity of the hollidays and new years, then I'll bump the next person(s) on the Order Of Battle and get things moving again. I hope you guys don't mind, but I'm enjoying this game and I want to keep playing. :D
 
I meant re: Dragon Bloods here to murder us all and take our stuff. (We're PCs, that's just not on.)
 
Especially since Najya and Amina were having a nice, quiet meal with a cute boy, while other people were out stirring the hornets' nest.
 
I had a request for a new player, name of Braydz. Once the character is ok'd, I'd appreciate it if everyone can avoid killing him/her off right away once I into 'em to the game. Wait for a few posts, then kill em. :lol:
 
What exactly qualifies as "superior" in the way of trousers?


p.s. Hi, all! Thanks for letting me play!
 
I doubt if a lack of pants would help that, it being the jungle.


Pants of awakened blue jade, however, might be just the thing.
 
Quick note: I'm going to be cut off from the internet until January 15th. Just stick Laughter on NPC until then.
 
Now it's time for an actual, related-to-game post!


Wound-Mastering Body Evolution! The charm makes no sense at all - Exalted lacks the sort of weapon-damage categories the charm relies on.


INSTEAD!


I request that we make the charm functionally identical to Adamant Skin Technique. Giving Lunars a Perfect Soak seems in-theme, and it's not terribly overpowering - Perfect Soaks are not terribly Perfect, after all.
 
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEWW!!!!


You're right. Pants are wonderful in the jungle.


But awakened blue jade pants are better; built-in AC.


As to WMBE, it is an odd charm considering the general lack of reference to types of sources of damage in the rest of the game, but it's not that bad. I don't think it requires any more "out-of-the-box" thinking than Sidereals changing the target number of rolls, although I haven't actually seen it used, and being able to say to Darkly Radiant Glow-Worm, "That first hit sucked, but from now on I ignore your Soulsteel Grand Goremaul," is pretty awesome. And a general perfect soak would definitely be in keeping with high-Essence Lunar style, except that in 2E Luna is painted as very much a "Don't be such a baby," kind of goddess. She gives her chosen the tools, but they have to do it all themselves.


[Tosses a tupence into the hat.]
 
A note to Braydz: go ahead and post your character for approval. Also, when making a IC post, make sure you put your character's name at the top of the post to help me keep players and characters clear.
