Also... look at the flower that she has on... it might be that her soul-gem is there and is decorated to look like a flower. :twisted:

"House rules country", eh?Jukashi said:*whistles nonchalantly*Flagg said:Where is her soulgem, anyway?
The Alchemical Exalted were created to serve somewhere between ambassador' date=' administrator and priest for the Autochthonian people. Unlike the Exalted of Creation, the Alchemicals were explicitly created to fulfill a role of assistance; the Alchemicals do not rule the Autochthonians, and were never intended to. Instead they serve as the foundation of Autochthonian society - as heroes, bureaucrats, administrators, inspirational guides and, eventually, cities. The Alchemicals help to intercede between the often-hostile mechanical lifeforms of Autochthonia and the humans living within - Alchemicals are recognized as part of Authochthonia, and as such they are granted further access to the deeps of the Machine God than mortals[/quote']
Is that accurate?
Why is there yet another WW wiki?merle said:
Er...how does that fit with:Pretty much.
Do they go nuts if they leave Autochthonia, or something?Not really. As far as Creation is concerned, Alchemicals are bad news all around.
About as destructive as Abyssals, but harder to feel righteous about fighting. ^^;
Not, it's just that their god/world Autocthon is dying and needs souls to keep him alive, while the human nations they watch over are running out of food, so now they've come into Creation the Autocthonians are engaged in a "Locust Crusade" which is stripping the south bare of humans and vegetation and anything else that's useful, and leaving behind naught but icky pollution. Since Exalted are in charge everywhere in Creation, the Alchemicals have to step up to the plate and they get seen as representative of the whole thing.merle said:Do they go nuts if they leave Autochthonia, or something?Not really.

...eep. Thanks for the heads-up, I hadn't even heard of this "Locust Crusade" before. I'll have to ask some of my more Exalted-savvy friends for more info...Jukashi said:Not, it's just that their god/world Autocthon is dying and needs souls to keep him alive, while the human nations they watch over are running out of food, so now they've come into Creation the Autocthonians are engaged in a "Locust Crusade" which is stripping the south bare of humans and vegetation and anything else that's useful, and leaving behind naught but icky pollution.

The reason it's so hard to feel righteous about fighting them is that they really do mean the best for their people, and they don't really know any better as far as Creation's concerned.
Oh, but they do go nuts sometimes if they get a bit too much Void in 'em.
Because Autocthon functions as a reincarnation mechanism once he "digests" the souls.ShadowDragon8685 said:Why is it hard to feel rightious about fighting them?
Frankly, at that point, they're just like the Fae invasion, intentions be damned. They're scything through Creation to feed something the souls of the mortal population of Creation, which means they need to be treated as any other Outside Invasion - that is, destroyed.
So what?The Fae ravage Creation and try to destroy it for fun. The Neverborn try to kill everything because they don't want to suffer any more. The Yozi try to break out and overtake Creation so they can mistreat everything that exists again (and probably more this time around.)
Compared to that, Autochthonians simply want to survive.
That's a thought that generates wars in any world.ShadowDragon8685 said:So what?The Fae ravage Creation and try to destroy it for fun.

Motives don't really matter much.So they want to survive? That's nice.
They commit atrocious and appallingly vast acts of genocide to do it? *Daiklaive*
Next?
