Dice Into the Ruins - Exalted 3e OOC

[Psychie]

Psychie I think I've wrapped up what I can unless I missed something. Intimacies, conflict stats and such have been filled in. Hope the backstory is something you can work with. Let me know if it needs any adjustment.

Only canon Dailkave I could find (and afford) in the core book and Arms of the Chosen to fit a character like this was Adorei, but I'm open to suggestions for a 3-4 dot Daiklave for a spirit hunting adventurer. Otherwise, I think this is perfectly fine as is. Hope I can scrounge up enough points to get some proper armor and a hearthstone or two later on.

My initial read on it looks fine. Are you ready for me to give you the formal thumbs up on your sheet, or do you still have some editing to do?

Everything should be in order now. I don't expect any changes outside of maybe adding intimacies depending on how well our characters know each other prior to the start of the story.

The character looks good. The only thing I saw that needs to be fixed is that you didn't record the number of motes committed to your daikalve in your combat block, and that's a small thing. Other than that, you are good to go.

Eonivar , Chowlett and jaydude How goes work on your sheets? I'm not trying to rush you, so please take your time. We are in no hurry here. I'm just interested in your progress.

Just Intimacies and Specialities left for me.

 

[Chowlett]

I feel your pain. This is why I rarely get to invest enough charms in a supernal to get much past E1 or E2.

And that's without thinking about stuff I can't take yet - some of the Essence 2 Lore charms looks nice, but I don't want to move my supernal for them. In fact, I don't think I can - Lore isn't a Night-caste ability. Have to gain in-play.

I have a fair way to go, but I'm making progress. I have 5-10 charms too many, 4 dots too much of merits, 1 specialty too many; I need to spend bonus points, take Intimacies, and formally pick my shaping ritual and control spell. Feels like a lot, but I should get through it in a couple of concentrated sessions. Life's been quite busy this past week!

I am coming along, I have started building the character and trying to sort out what charms and such to get. I have a backstory and I am trying to keep from expanding it too much to give the character room to grow. Trying to start simple. I am hoping to have everything all situated today and then I can figure out the UI display on the posts to present the character. I mostly write on this site so I have not played too much with the display features.

I am looking at Thrown Weapons now...are there any cool thrown weapon artifacts in the other books beyond Black Wind?

There are a couple different Infinite Chakrams in Arms of the Chosen that usually run 3 dots. I can copy them over for you to look at in a PM if you'd like.

That sounds good, please do, thank you.

 

[Psychie]

Give me a moment and I'll pop them over for you.

When I get paid next, I think I will be giving Onyx some money...

Question, I would have to look in my First Edition book, but didn't there used to be a merit about the ability for a Solar Exalted to remember things from their past life in the first age?

 

[Psychie]

I seem to recall what you are talking about, but as far as I know, there is no Merit in 3e (yet) that is available to do that. You can say that you have memories of your past Exaltation as flashes of insight, or as a justification for having certain abilities that you didn't before you Exalted.

 

[Eonivar]

Ok, to be fair I have never done any sort of game like this before, I have only done 1x1 RP on this site. Is it possible to have duplicate artifacts? I like Sherwood 's Starmetal Change Purse and was interested in maybe acquiring one of my own, but I was not sure if this is allowed or possible or if I need to figure out a way to flavor it differently?

 

[Sherwood]

There are some unique artifacts (like a named Daiklave) and other items like the Collar of Dawns Cleansing Light that are very common throughout both the First and Second Age. So depending on Psychie's ruling on this particular item, you may be able to have one of your own.

 

[Psychie]

The Change Purse wouldn't have the same backstory, but yes, you could have a similar item. It would have to have been made by another god or Exalt to do what he/she saw this item doing.

ok then, I am going to define my character's memories of the First Age and their strong connection to their past life in their Intimacies

Ok cool, the character is almost done!

 

[Psychie]

Awesome. I'm looking forward to the game.

 

[Sherwood]

Yeah, me too.

 

[jaydude]

Just Intimacies left for me!

 

[Psychie]

Like I said before, I am not trying to rush anyone, but I am hoping to have the first IC post by next weekend; earlier if possible.

 

[Sherwood]

The sooner the better. It will make me stop second-guessing my Charm layout and just go with what I have and hope I'm not missing something critical starting out.

 

[Psychie]

I get it. I constantly tweak my characters by adjusting the placement of each point right up to the point of the game starting, too.

 

[Eonivar]

Ok, everyone please take a look and make sure i got everything I need for my character. I welcome a good critique. =-)
