Thorn Darkblade
I know lots of things. Lots of things...
So, I now have more time than before, and, as promised, will do that newbie Exalted game. So, here's what I'm looking for:
-NEW PLAYERS ONLY. This is the big one. The less experience, the better! Never played Exalted? Good! Never done a dice based game? Even better! Still scared of RPing a bit? Don't worry, I don't bite!
-Ruleset will be 2.5 New players may ask what this means? Well, not a whole heck of a lot. It just means we're using the most up-to-date rules, which have been refined over the years.
-Cosmology and Metaplot will be trimmed. New Players: This means you won't have to memorize the entire history of the game world. It'll still be there, but simplified. It will mostly be about developing good characters, learning good RP skills, and learning the mechanics! Solars only, which means less variety, but more simplicity.
-Looking for up to 4 players. There will be one of each Caste (Character Archtype), except Eclipse, as I'm cutting out Social Combat for most of the game. One thing at a time.
-Players must be able to post once every 2 days, preferably more often. I will try to keep myself to this standard as well, but college events do pop up sometimes. I swear I will inform all players if a temporary absence will occur, but please be willing to not vanish when I do return.
-Players must either have access to the Exalted 2nd Edition Core Rules and Errata, or be able to communicate with me on TeamSpeak or AIM to go over character generation and rules primers. I'd love to just post them up here, but copyright infringement and stuff, :tongue: I can point you to where you can buy a legal download of the PDF, or if you're really willing to splurge, a hard copy, here, and the Errata can be found for free here.
Interested? Great! Give me your current RP experience, and a first and second pick for Caste choice. I'm looking for a well balanced group, so am going to also pick people to fill in these archtypes. Note that these archtypes are not ALL your character can be. Exalted has a very free-form system, and you can make a armored sorcerer, or a ninja priest, or whatever. These are just basics simplified for new players,
The four castes and their archtype are- Dawn (Warrior), Zenith (Priest/Monk), Twilight (Sorcerer/Healer), and Night (Thief/Ninja). Mind you, these are super basic generalizations, and there is a lot more customization...a Twilight can be a heavily armored sword-wielding badass, it's just that Dawns tend to be that more frequently.
Any more questions? Ask away!
