All your life, you have never really wanted for anything. Looking back, you realize that you never really had a choice to make. Your childhood was fine. When you grew bored, something exciting happened. When you got lonely, a new friend found you. When you really wanted to get something, you eventually got it. When you lost something, before you could give up you found it. Your childhood progressed more-or-less happily onto adolescence and then into the first breath of adulthood.
Then the world went to hell. Terrorists started attacking and the economy tanked. Your life seemed invincible and then one day you lost something and it was never going to come back. Something blindingly traumatic happened suddenly, without warning. In that moment of despair and crushing sorrow, you realized that you had never actually made a decision in your life. There had never been a significant choice to make...until now. Something within you is surging forward, pressing against the normalcy of your life. You feel it and realize it is you. You don't know what you are pushing against, what resists you so strongly...but something has to answer for what has just happened. You have to fix it somehow.
Today is the 30th of December, 2008. The world is being consumed by entropy. Weather anomalies are on the rise; earthquakes, hurricanes, and blizzards slaughter and destroy. The world economy might fail any day; once mighty countries look upon their treasuries to realize there is nothing left. Terrorists strike the fat, exposed underbelly of modern nations; shattering the dream of peace and prosperity. Hundreds of outbreaks of the bird flu have been reported worldwide this year all across Asia; the world looks at its neighbors and wonder if they will bring about their deaths.
And you have no idea what you are. In distant ages their might have been guidance, a flicker of insight or memory. Now there is no help. Still, you look upon your hands and face and see that they are not as they were. You understand things on a scale you could never have conceived of before. Memories, books, tv-shows, half-heard conversations, and more have woven together. Always there behind you and within in a warmth; a fire that will not let itself be put out.

I need 2-3 players. Exalted PBeM situated in modern earth. Frequency is fairly chill, around 3-5 per week (it could spike, but no pressure). I am looking for players that are interested in character development, role playing, and writing. Character Gen is largely handled by the personality/history you submit with me coupled with your decisions during the prologue. It has worked out great for the first player. I have another player getting ready to start the prologue. I am looking for all 4-5 players to link up in a month or so, and then the first Chapter will begin. It is based in New York, New York, USA. I am using a custom, google map to track locations and gdocs for character sheets.
