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

I dont see a reason why there would be a problem with it. Its not like you are picking up Solar level sorcery, or something like that.

Cool, but to be clear is that with Graceful Crane Stance as a prereq or not? Though Laundreu indicated it is a prereq, Monkey Leap Technique actually has no prereq.s.


Now to figure out where I am as things moved along so quickly...
 
Right, how much does Laughter know about Erembour? I know her 1e write-up, but 15 Successes might not be enough for that.
 
You know a decent chunk. It is a 3rd circle demon and is normally not able to be bound unless its by a Solar level spell.


What would the Fae be doing with something like this, hmmm? :twisted:
 
So I know the basics then?


That she's one of the souls of The Ebon Dragon, and that she walks in his shadow playing her horn, calling to the creatures of darkness and transforming those who hear it?
 
Time for more xp. 6 more points for you.


Merry Christmass.
 
6 XP for everyone?


As much as I hate to say it, we seem to be gaining xp awfully fast. Perhaps we should slow down a little? Gaining what's basically 2 new charms for a fight and an exploration scene seems a little bit much.

Die!
 
I was going by 3 points per page, but I can slow it down if you want...
 
Why not 4-6 XP per week? That puts it at roughly equivalent to what we'd be getting if we were playing in person. In-game we would still be skyrocking in power-level compared to our fellow Lunars.
 
Besides, that way we can just roleplay/have IC conversations without worrying about gaining too much or too little XP.
 
Per page might not be the best way to do it because it encourges post count (active players are never bad though, per page is nice). But per week isn't good because there isn't a great incentive to be active.


Slowing it down after 100xp or something isn't bad though, but lets get a few basic charms, combos, etc. I'm pumped up to fight a million fey and build an empire, etc. And you can't do that on 4-6xp per week! :)
 
Yeah, let's stick with 3xp per page, at least until we get to about 100xp. Otherwise I'll never get all the stuff I want... :P


Oh, and I now have enough for another Charm. I'll be taking the Second Intelligence Excellency. Next up: Abilities, Attributes and Virtues.

Good, that clears things up.

In a "even as Lunars we have had some deep, hard doo doo dropped on top of us. Granted with krunchy bits" sort of way.


Eying that Inevitable Genius charm down the way Tome? :)

Inevitably. :lol:


I dislike how they've done that personally. RLF, the physical cap raiser, can be taken without any real prerequisite, but IGI, the mental cap raiser, requires two Excllencies. One wouldn't be so bad, but when am I going to need two? And RLF also gets all those nifty Fury Charms, making it far superior AND easier to get than it's mental counterpart.
 
As long as you have to get two you might as well gets the one that allows you to buy specialties. Like a specialty in sorcery or something.
 
Wait, those two count as excellencies?


I though it was just the First/Second/Third Excellencies that counted, not Instinctive (Attribute) Unity and Flawless (Attribute) Focus?
 
I guess not per the rules, but it's kind of useless if they're not counted. But I've always favored the PC's in rulings like that when they're not obviously going for twinkery.
 
Since the main book refers to Excellencies and Related charms, I think only the 3 are excellencies for any exalt and the extra are related.


Gotta agree though that requiring 2 is dumb. I can along with some prereq.s. RLF is kinda one of those that makes Lunars Lunars and gives them an appropriate edge. Not that intelligence is far outside the realm, but it's not as in theme, so some prereq.s for it is okay.


But I hate pure fricking speedbumps.


Anyway, check with Sherwood if "related" charms count on the prereq.s
 
An excellent proposal.


SHERWOOD! :D


EDIT Question answered via PM. Verdict: Yes.


Oh, and a summary of Laughter's actions during the downtime, in order of importance:


-Conduct proper burials for the dead soldiers.


-Learn Relentless Lunar Fury (12xp)


-Learn Second Intelligence Excellency - Essence Triumphant (10xp)


-Summon an elemental using Sorcery, to assist him for the month.


-Using Alchemy, and using motes to pay the resources cost, make 3x Blood-Staunching Compress, 1x Fox's Ear Potion, 2x Bloodhound's Nose Potion, 3x Ardent Embrace Resin and 2x Munificent Antivenin. Done over several days.


-Have a shot at repairing the Artifacts we found, assuming there's a tool set mixed in there somewhere.


Feel free to ask me for any rolls/RP necessary.
