So, an essence 2 Solar, an essence 5 DB, and an essence 3 Sidereal walk into a bar... Which one has the biggest cock? In my games, essence-wielders can all get a general idea of eachother's power levels for free if they interact.  This is an innate facet of nature, but power does not...

So my (100+ XP) players killed the Perfect of Paragon and EVERYONE saw them.   Now that they have auctioned off his wardrobe and raided the armory and are beginning to hold court there (no one has actually said they want to be in charge), they have been marauding around the countryside taking...

My party seems to have run afoul of Dukantha during calibration.  What possessed them to be out on open ocean during Calibration is completely beyond me, but to teach them the error of their ways, they ran into Dukantha.  Instead of running like any sane person, they fought, and they gave an...

I despise the resources system and it's complete lack of realism.  If Exalted were in a modern day setting with modern day banking establisments and modern day engineered economies, I could see a blanket resource rating doing the trick. I fairly drowned my gaming group in semen when I got my...

Okay, this might make me sound a little homosexual, but... I don't think anyone has really addressed fashion in Exalted yet.  I may have to be the first. Earlier, I posted a question about who did the bellybutton piercing for the Lover Clad in the Rainment of Uselessly Long Titles. Which...

Preamble:  My players want to play a Dragon Blooded game and they want to play it in finishing school. I started my write-up and I started my cast of characters, and I realized that no matter how much I tried to vary everything, that something was missing. Enter the following books...

For those who follow these threads closely (as I wish that I had time to), I've been doing some soul searching.  After concluding that I'm so twisted and Malfeasant that I meet myself coming around corners, I have also concluded that my love for gaming is dwindling. The cycle goes something...

Somewhere, I read an Exalted FAQ that asked the following question: Is Exalted the secret history of the World Of Darkness? Everyone knows the old WoD ended, but has anyone ever tried running one into the other or the other into the one? I was running a game of Mage: TA when I was...

Yes, it's a cheesy name, and every genre has its own witch hunter/secret police/arctic SCUBA ninja assassins from vietnam, but I see a great deal of real potential here. A house laid low and pressed into service, intensely trained and mind-broken Jason Bourne-type assassins and spies, any one...

I pride myself on my flexibility.  All RetConning (emphasis on con) aside, I recall asking for players who didn't treat Exalted like DBZ or a video game.  Now it seems I've been given enough rope to hang myself.  Now I come to this glorious and venerated forum not as the Master of...

Creation is flat, and conveniently defined in terms of five elemental poles. But several of the books say that Creation used to be much larger... Suppose that during the great contagion, some cities weren't gobbled up by the wyld, but they were cut off from the rest of creation, waiting to...

In Caste Book: Dawn, the final entry in the book is about a Dawn Caste named Senebau who is currently fomenting a rebellion within the walls of the Realm. It says that in the greenhouses, slaves train with mock-weapons awaiting the day they will rise up (probably Tiger Warrior training...

Primoridials create the Gods, Gods create Exalted from humans, big war ensues, Primordials fall, Exalts rule creation. But what if.... a mortal nation (because nearly all humans were strictly mortal at that time) was cursed that her children could never Exalt? The ideas I've been throwing...

If anyone has ever read the Gamma World GM's guide, there is a blurb about the "Art of the RetCon" This isn't so much a topic beginning with a question as it is an explanation of this concept to STs just starting out. Also, all third person pronouns are him/he/his/it.  This is not to draw...

There is a fabulous illustration in the Dragon Blooded book which shows the Scarlet Empress being groped by the Ebon Dragon. Cool.  I make sure I show this picture as part of a vision or foist it up on every unbidden oracle in my group every few sessions.  So far, no one has thought to heed...

Okay, so the Great Contagion and the Fair Folk have pushed the stalwart defenders of creation to its limits.  A young Dragon Blooded leader and her closest allies climb to the top of the Imperial manse.  They figure out how to activate some dormant defense system, she offs her buddies to power...
