Soooooo, anyway, my character needs a bethrothal to a decently placed dynast, young or widower, any suggestions for interesting hooks?

Uh... uhm... Well I don't think any from Mnemon will accept you easily (But could have a fun series of backstory/plotlines.) Roseblack... I dunno would she?


... Actually I may have to take a peek at the book.


EDIT: A... the other way? Hrm. Uh... dudes? House Cathak? ... Ya book...

How are you going to square that away? Your character is anathema. Even if that status isn't publicly known, your character isn't Dragon-Blooded, meaning you'll have a low social status (despite being a direct member of V'Neef's bloodline) and generally a less viable candidate for political marriage.


EDIT: Nags, all the way.
 
I meant a bethroal put in place back when they thought she was just a very high breeding mortal who had tragicaæly failed to exalt, the marriage was of course cancelled when they learned of her being possessed by an Anathema spirit. Such a tragedy for a promising young woman. Even if she was just a mortal.

I'm pretty sure a massive errata makes it more than just my "opinion".
 
Oh. Just make it up yourself then. Some random mid-level young Dragon Blood in any of the Great Houses would work, though you'll want to avoid a family bloodline that's particularly picky about blood purity.

Nope. There were plenty of things they left in, and a lot of the "Errata" per-say was also a complete revisioning of the system's functionality largely based on the opinions of Errata Team Prime. While I agree with their opinion, I've got plenty of friends who absolutely hated the Ink Monkeys material because of the way it changed 2E combat.


Opinions are opinions, no matter how much they've been reinforced or decided as invalid by the system line. This is why there will always be people who will play DnD 3.5 over 4.0, for example (though this difference is arguably more similar to that between 2E and 3E exalted rather than 2.5 and 2E).

That was my default option, but I know my character isn't the only one with A Realm-y past, so I thought it might be nice to have a tie-in of a sort.
 
Well of course it would be. You could have her marry a Cathak, if you like. We could possibly tie something in there, but its quite possible that my character would have moved to try and kill yours (which back at that time probably wouldn't have been beyond his capabilities). Still, this could have been a turning point for him where he first began to have his doubts about Bronze ideology.

De note that I did say I was being facetious :P

Didn't appear facetious. Sorry if I was misinterpreting.
 
Eh, half serious, half facetious. 2E did have some good points and a lot of cool ideas, but it also had a lot of flaws (hence 2.5 and now 3E).


It's good :)

That might be pretty cool. I imagine her Exalting before the marriage took place, while she was still at the House of Bells, but a bethroathal to a granddaughter of the Empress is a very solid thing. Even if she is a mere mortal.


Any concrete suggestion for the Cathak in question?
 
That could work. My character would have been a personal advisor to Cainan before his death (Chosen of Saturn and all). Just develop your own, or if you prefer dig up family bloodline from MoEP: Dragon Blooded.
 
Sooo I zipped through the thread to see who was making what, considering Sherwood asked about how many of us were Lunars. Startling... we have 13/10 applicants.


Anyway... regardless how our ST decides on us here is the line up. I didn't find who was what caste in most of these and our DTs are weird to begin with so no true castes there.


1 Myl - Infernal DT (Started as a Malefactor)


2 Ebsilon - Solar


3 Sherwood - Lunar No Moon


4 Jaytee - Solar Zenith


5 Lord-Leafar - Solar


6 Mahasuchi - Sidereal Endings?


7 Teggetto - Solar Dawn


8 Millershipper - Lunar/Solar


9 Kaji-Oni - Sidereal Journeys/Secrets


0 SeekeroftheEnd - Infernal DT (Started as Scourge)


1 Wardragon - Infernal DT (Started as Defiler)


2 Feantari - DB


3 Scandinavian - Infernal
 
Terrifying is right. xD We're a small army... or potential several armies.


Oh I need to ask as I noticed this just awhile ago. What does Legendary Familiar give for Demonic Familiars? (is tempted to spend 2BP just for that. xD )

No, you can't have me as your familiar!

I actually meant that air dragon from the Sidereal book :P


Seems like a fitting pet for a Solar Skyship captain :D
 
My new Familiar folks!


Sky goes dark the land shakes, everything goes quiet. Largest dragon ever glares at everyone, finds the DTs... and then....


New day of New Creation! Kittens play in a field of flowers. :P
 
Ah legendary familiar let see:


-Smaller Behemoths, Super Tyrant Lyzards, and other powerful creatures, who happens to be intelligent and powerful and they of course have the essence replenishing property.


-For the demonic familiar, Build him like a second circle demon (lower end, not higher).


For the craft, I indeed did reply about it earlier, craft includes all the regular ones and all the special ones, require you to buy the specialties and meet the prerequisites.
