So they would more or less become full fledged Abyssals, Charm-wise, except with the Ability to take animal forms, and no ability to do any other shapeshifting?Sherwood said:Also, they would replace their Charms with ones from the Abyssal book, and any new ones would come from there also.
Do as you like. I suspect a friend of mine who's running Abyssals has something similar up his sleeve, insofar as we fought Dragon-Blooded whose Essence was clearly tainted by Oblivion. At the same time, the idea of having an Underworld Aspect seems very silly to me, since the DRAGON-Blooded were spawned by the five great elementals of Creation and that the Underworld doesn't have its own elemental poles/ forces - just wan reflections of what exists in Creation. But as Uncle Al says: do as thou wilt.Sherwood said:Hanat, not to get into a arguement with you, but in my world, I have a fair number of Underworld-aspected Dragon-Blooded that serve the Deathlords. Â Some have volunteered to join from various armies of Creation, and some have been born to citizens living in various Shadowlands.
My point was that the Deathlords have already corrupted the most powerful Exalts around, and that as such specifically crafting a necromantic ritual to taint Lunars or DBs seems superfluous. The greatest death-powers available have already been discovered. Why taint a Dragon-Blooded and waste time developing Void-tainted elemental powers when you already Abyssal Lore Charms that suck the life out of Creation? More to the point, you don't have to magically taint an Exalt to press - or manipulate - her into your service, so why bother? A Deathlord could easily suborn a few outcastes and breed a line of Dragon-Blooded that ascribe to his version of the ancestor cult, using culture to control them instead of motes and hoodoo. Yes, they have a lot of motes at their disposal... but why buy milk when you can indoctrinate the cow for free?Sherwood said:The reward of having more Exalts serving under the command of the Abyssals seems obvious to me. Â If there is a necromatic ritual to twist a Solar shard, why won't it work on the lesser powered Exalts? Â Why not have the advantage of leigons of the dead being sent forward by not just the fallen Solar, but the Lunars and Dragon-Blooded too?
