Reaver
One Thousand Club
In another level of reality higher then any known to even the primordials a being of immense power stares at a swirling portal wondering. It sees past the boundaries of time and space and sees the dark end coming to creation. While normally it would not care for such lesser beings the end of creation would remove one of it's favorite sources of entertainment. Yet, chaos, yes add a bit of chaos into the orderly march to doom and it could be entertaining. Why just the waves would entertain it for a few centuries. It turns it's gaze at the multi-verse. Considering it debates pulling a legend from another world. Suddenly the being smiles. Yes that would be a truly chaotic way to mix things up. Also it's from one of the boring verses so nothing truly great is lost from pulling them.
On earth a series of letters are sent out from White Wolf publishing. The lucky winners would receive a fully paid trip to a special convention held in honor of Exalted. Even as the beings it chose begin to get ready for the special event the being smiles as he waits to close the trap. Looking at the glittering shards it caught from that world.
Basically you the person behind the screen are invited to a convention. Once there you are going to be torn from the world and cast back to ten years after the Scarlet Empress rose to power. In the middle of the worst of the hunts and when the sword of creation hangs overhead.
You get sent back with what you'd have going to a convention. I don't mind a bit of meta knowledge to pad the deck just nothing truly silly. Also if you don't feel comfortable being you, then you can make up a new you. Be sure to include a full list of what you have from up-time. More then that your body will have all diseases and medical conditions removed and you will be remade into peak shape. Think erupting in Aberrant.
I am wanting between 3 to 5 players. You don't have to be a perfect circle if you do not want to.
Now onto the nuts and bolts. I am using Firearms and Drive. Do not bother taking any linguistics for real world languages. Any language you speak uptime you have for free. Make your character up as the exalted you.
I am using the Ink monkey's/errated creation rules. Only Solar and Lunar exalted are allowed.
You start as a standard starting Solar or Lunar except you get two extra dots for your mental stats. Past experience of games like this show that people are not good at gauging there own stats. They either highball or lowball them.
For backgrounds you get the full points for them but the only thing you can start with are artifacts and familiars. Anything else you buy will be “found” later in game.
I expect a lot of meta gaming early on, and even later on as most players will likely have either hard or digital copies of their books.

The only differences are that I usually carry a laptop as well (which would quickly become useless in Creation) and I studied fencing and battō-jutsu instead of sōjutsu and SCA spear fighting like she obviously did...
