Exalted 3E: Rebirth of Brilliance
"You don't understand," Dala says, rubbing her temples. "She didn't appear and conquer our tribe. She appeared in visible brilliance. Like the sky was aflame with her righteousness. Like the Sun himself had leant her his own power. She cowed even the worst of them. With a few words, they bowed to her. And then, amazingly, she went to each of them, raised their heads, and blessed them. As if they weren't there to slaughter us. As if moments before they hadn't drawn steel and spat threats.
"It was life changing. We were given the gift of peace without a single drop of blood shed. And then, she was gone. A whisper on the wind. She asked nothing in return."
Dala stands and draws her blade across her palm. She squeezes her fist, forcing blood between her fingers and onto the earth below. "I vow, by the blood that courses through these veins, to dedicate our people to peace and make the best of this gift for our children. And their children to come."
This is an interest check for Rebirth of Brilliance, a third edition Exalted game that takes place in the Southeast. We will focus on a group of Solar Exalted played by you. Before you post your interest, please understand the following expectations:

This is an interest check for Rebirth of Brilliance, a third edition Exalted game that takes place in the Southeast. We will focus on a group of Solar Exalted played by you. Before you post your interest, please understand the following expectations:
- Respect. All players and the ST (myself) will be expected to treat each other with respect, especially where the RPNation rules explicitly dictate.
- Creativity. This game will be player-driven. Meaning I will not predetermine our game. I will be playing to "find out" like you will be. The players and their characters will need to have an idea of what they want out of narrative. That also includes establishing setting, antagonists, NPCs, etc. The player will have agency to help flesh out the world not only through their characters' actions, but through direct creative input. In addition, the player will be expected to be open to the creativity of the other players. This could include losing agency over details established about their character. As an example: Fellow player to you, establishing something about your character: "Remember the time we fought the tribesman and you took the arrow in the knee?"
- Collaboration. Players are expected to work with other players on ideas. Coming up with locations, people, places by working together to create a shared narrative space.
- Open mind. A lot of the time, while I will be using the mechanics as written, I will take liberty with how we use them to create narrative. As an example, I like to discuss the impact and consequences of the roll before it's rolled. Meaning, you will know what will happen if you fail or succeed before you roll.
