Dice [OOC][Exalted 3e] Zhakara, the land of Enlightenment

[D. Rex]

Yeah my Lunar in the Into the Ruins RP has the midnight cloak and the braid , they are pretty cool, highly recommend

I was actually looking at the braid too! Since the ebon shadow style uses chains, my first thought went to the braid. Would be pretty cool to get that too eventually. Make a pretty neat combo altogether. Curses, shadows, and martial arts.

 

[Red Shadow Claws]

Any other Sorcerous initiations hidden in Artifacts like the Cloak? I'd like to update my Sorcery & Necromancy PDF, and add the Alchemical initiations and spells too, so it's a good time to find and add any other initiations I might have missed.

 

[Sherwood]

Red Shadow Claws I have a backstory up pending your approval, and I’m working on Wren’s Intimacies.

 

[Red Shadow Claws]

Sherwood

Love the backstory. Only thing I would change is the names, both personal name and family name. Try for more arabic names. For Family names, you can go with Al-Kamari, the greatest silk merchants, or Al-Thuria, the greatest leather workers. Both are the most effluent merchant families in Huzuz, the capital.


Psychie

I forgot to note, it's better to go with an arabian name, for the feel of this area.

Awesome. I don't know much about Arabic style names, so I'll probably just go to a net search for a site with Arabic names on it.

Behind the Name is a great site for that.

 

[Sherwood]

How does Thamina Al-Kamari AKA Hala sound? I got it from that Behind the Name site.

 

[Sherwood]

Ok, I have version one of my Intimacies done. How do they look?

Looking good. What's your character's opinion of the Grand Caliph? After all, if you come from the Al-Kamari family, that means your family had dealings with him.

Also, the Dragon-Blooded whom you've fought, was he an outcaste, or part of one of the orders? what was his Aspect?

I'll add in something about the Grand Caliph.

The Exalt is a Water Aspect, and I don't know enough about the Orders gage the difference in the two. What works better for the story?

Well, Psychie Sherwood maybe the water aspect hunting for Thamima, is also the one that killed Salwa's father? That could put an interesting spin to this...

 

[D. Rex]

Oho, that would be an interesting spin. That might even imply that the pirate captain wasn't actual pirate. Unless Hala was being married to a pirate. Would imply perhaps the dragon blood was using a piracy as a cover to eliminate an esteemed merchant for some reason.




But! If we are going with ties, I could probably be tied to dragon blooded as well to help that story along. Such as being related to him, or rival family if I went with an elemental style. Or was among those trained for that families secret assassins if I chose the ebon shadow style.

I can go for that. Should make for a fun twist.

 

[Red Shadow Claws]

What if these two events happened about 5 days apart?

 

[Sherwood]

I see no objection to that.

 

[Psychie]

I see visions of a reoccurring villain in our future.
