I mean, I'm really not at all familiar with the Alchemical Invasion. You're welcome to have it be a part of this setting if you want, but you're going to have to walk me through the details.Before I get too far into my background planning, what is the status, if any, of the Alchemical invasion in this setting? Do you want me to be an old Exalt that was left in Creation in stasis for a while, or can I be a newly minted Exalt from Autochthon as a part of the invasion force?
I'm going to say that it only boosts it by one for now, same as a suit of Silken Armor. Also, it'll be a Secondary Merit.jaydude I want to get a hearthstone to up my Soak, like the Stone of Resilient Bamboo from Arms of the Chosen. Would that still boost my Soak by two, or would it be less than that in this setting?
Sneaky Ranged Combat.
If there's material already around, I'm not particularly fussed about homebrew.What is your stance on homebrew for Essence, jaydude ? Looking around there are some pretty extensive extensions to the Charmset people have put up. Lots of new Martial Arts, Exalt Modes for a lot of Charms that don't have them, lots of new Exalt Charms. The game straight up says every character can and should make Personal Modes for their Charms. It seems to strongly encourage writing our own material, but are there any special rules or constraints you want us to follow besides seeking your approval?
Lol, was wondering if someone would pick up on the fact that this was inspired by Final Fantasy X.jaydude obviously we should all be ready to fight a giant flying whale and play blitzball...
It's honestly up to you. Like I said in the interest check, I'm largely going with the Avatar Legends mantra of "play to find out what happens". I provide a basic plot idea, you come up with characters for it, and then I create and plan around that party composition....but should we worry at all about non-combat utility or just go all in on murder?
It's got me really excited to see how this story plays out. Been enjoying XVI recently also.Lol, was wondering if someone would pick up on the fact that this was inspired by Final Fantasy X.
I’m going for the speedy guerilla fighterSneaky Ranged Combat.
It'd depend on the charity of another, but aside from rushing between multiple targets, there is also the Ensnare gambit to pin down a target if they are liable to remain on the field for a good while.Right then, so two sneaky ranged murderers, and a fast melee murderer who is incredibly terrifying if the enemy can't move for some reason, or if he somehow gets the ability to move and rush in the same turn.
Nonsense, what better house of destiny to guide the deeds of mighty warriors than Battles? If it's what you want to play, go for it. We'll find a way to make the dynamic work.Maybe Chosen of Battles isn't the right call here Unless we all want to be primarily focused on murder.
I have good news! In Essence, if a Hearthstone doesn't need to be socketed into a weapon, it comes with free jewelry of your choice to socket it in (unless the Bracer is an artifact in its own right that's giving you useful bonuses). You could socket it in your Pulse Cannon (presumably on loan from Ein) too, of course.Secondary - Resources - Backing from the Paratopolis of Ein
Secondary - Hearthstone - Stone of Resilient Bamboo
Tertiary - Contacts - Spy Network
Tertiary - Artifact - Hearthstone Bracer
