"Before you go," said Tiger. "I have one quick question of my own: Given my inherent nature as a priest, what would be Yu-Shan's reaction if I were to visit? He asked. "Especially the reactions of the Bronze faction and what maneuvers they or the other anti-Solar gods could make against me."
Unless I completely missed what she said, all she was talking about was sending an Infallible Messenger. Otherwise, it'll take a bit more than "a moment."
 
Yeah, she is going to use the spell to let her boss know that the trip was a success. If you need to edit your post to reflect that, go ahead.
 
I would like to take this moment to point out that Rose is an Eclipse caste with Manipulation 5 and Socialize 6. Do not believe every word she says, or that I write, in any way reflect her opinions.
 
Don't worry Mr serious, we just haven't run in to a situation that'll showcase Tiger's arrogance yet.

Ignore the crazy redhead. Got it.

Riiiight, let's ignore the girl with enough social charms to make peace between Halta and Linowan or make Mnemon drop all claims to the Scarlet Throne. She's sure to take that nicely and not try to grab the center stage right back :P
 
I wonder, once we get enough information to decide what to do next, what are gonna be some of the goals each character will put for themselves? I get a feeling that not everyone will share a single point of view, and we might see a 3-4 way race to fix creation according to each character's personality.
 
Rose, for one, will argue strongly in favor of deciding the Big Picture between us and letting each roam free with what they like. Creation has too many external threats for the solars to fight each other.
 
Tiger is a solo guy, so he's not used to working groups. Given the situation however, he'll probably support they person who seems like the know what they're doing.


Edit: failing that, go forth and punch evil in the face
 
Aurora will probably start with cleaning Rathess, but afterwards her interests might take her in one or two directions, first is back to the North, specially if she hears anything about the Bull of the North and his circle and what they've done in the last couple of years, second, Thorns, such an abomination seems like a rather important error that must be erased from Creation, but then again, it all depends on what kind of information she gets from now on.
 
More concretely, Rose's two first projects are restoring the Dragon Kings and fixing Filial Wisdom, though she obviously doesn't know about the latter one yet.
 
Storm will be all for cleaning Rathess and Thorns, after which he'll be looking towards cleansing the South of Yozi taint (and wherever else he can find it).
 
Skadi will stick around Rathess for a while, despite the skin-crawling humidity -- she respected the Dragon Kings back in the old days, and the situation with the local Fair Folk will hold her attention.


Other concerns: the Fair Folk, obviously. Skadi knows how much they resent the Exalted for "greedily" seeking to expand Creation...a resentment mixed with bewilderment, for how could the toys they perceive Creation-dwellers to be have succeeded in defeating real people like themselves? It's as if the NPCs from your Mac game started building a bigger and bigger computer system, crowding you out of your own room, while refusing to allow you to play with them due to your exploitation of Video Game Cruelty Potential.


The Silver Pact. Skadi is the last Half Moon in Creation.


Finally, if Skadi ever goes to visit her manse (and she should, she's stockpiled a lot of stuff there), she'll be very, very annoyed at the way the Bishop has set up shop practically in her backyard...
 
Given how I seem to be inclined to play my character and so far the game has primarily been talk would I be able to take the flaw Greater Curse at 2 points and funnel those into conviction? Also, Sash, has a good point in regards to just announcing ourselves openly in Yu-Shan and seeking audience with the representatives of the Unconquered Sun. They wouldn't dare attack us (openly) at first and it would certainly throw them off balance as they evaluated the impact to all their stratagems.
 
Would you guys do me a favor? When making an IC post, start with your character's name. With so many characters to deal with, it will help me keep you all straight.
