Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
[Recruit] Exalted: Infernals

That's part of why I was so excited about Fasara getting Loom-snarling Deception and its upgrade.
Well, I know what I want next now.
"Do as I command or live out the rest of eternity as a slave demon. Your call."
but Resplendent Destinies make a Fate, at least.
Other Sidereals are blind to Resplendent Destinies though. Also, Loom-Snarling Deception!
Shmuck: Man, I'm so busy! I wish I had a third arm.
*wish granted ala Scoured Perfection of Form/ Verdant Emptiness Endowment*
Shmuck: ONO! I'm a freak!
Me: I can take those away. Really.
Shmuck: I wish you would.
*Arm taken away*
Me: Congratulations! You now owe me two favors! I think I'll take your bank account and your wife.
Shmuck: No way!
Me: Fine.
*turns Shmuck into a demon ala Inner Devils Unchained*
Me: Enjoy eternity as my slave.
That's when you impersonate the WIFE, have the baby, then put the wife back and force her to raise your demonbaby. *nod*

Theoretically you could develop some Charms that let you do both at once.
Eldritch Secrets Mastery seems to imply that Loom-Snarling Deception doesn't prevent things from knowing you're a creature of darkness. And Eldritch Secrets Mastery wouldn't be available to me, as an Akume of She Who Lives In Her Name. Your call, though, INNS. If I could grab that to hide my nature, I'd totally do that.
Everything should be right with my character now, though. This is literally the most complicated character I've made for any game, ever. Still awesome, though.
The part about SWLIHN's Excellency in Constructive Convergence of Principles is just there to say that you can treat the Essence + Willpower roll as (Attribute + Ability), letting you add a number of dice equally to your base pool or half that in successes, etc.
And I'm pretty sure that spell from the Infernals book would do it, but only at Essence 5+. Meh, I'll live. I'll just have to be comforted by the army of demons I create.
Indeed it is. You do kind of pay for the high accuracy with low damage though. Still against foes that don't tend to have hardness (or have high armour but low enough DVs that you can take the external penalty for using weapons with telekinesis) it's golden.
I'll have to rememeber to build a Charm to cloak other people's CoD status.
(why no, I would never use the threat of terminating that Charm while you're busy in Yu-shan as a manipulation tactic, why would you think such a thing?)
Constructive Convergence of Principles is Wyld Cauldron Technology (well, the immediate pre-req for it, but if I take it again, it's Wyld Cauldron Technology) that works in Malfeas as if it were the Bordermarches, but instead of Intelligence + Lore, it's Willpower + Essence, which is fan-fucking-tastic when combined with the first Excellency that allows you to treat it as if it were Ability + Attribute (in my case, 28 dice if I put the mustard on it). It also says that you're explicitly allowed to make demons with the power, no one in Malfeas gives a shit, and they come into being with an Intimacy towards you (either like/respect or fear/respect, your choice). It's not quite as solid as binding them to you, but it's the next best thing. Especially when you can eat their soul if they get uppity.
Man, I'm excited for this game to start. I like this character way more than the Solar I was making, INNS, even if he is way more work.
I'm really liking the Infernals book. It's got some incredibly solid charms in here; I like the way they did it. Very different flavor from any of the other books; it's not so bad having to take one or two pre-req charms that you'll never use when you've got a tree of fifteen charms you get to with them, and you want all of them. Even most of the pre-reqs are decent.
I don't think I'm going to be spending any experience on abilities anytime soon; it's all gonna be charms. I want to pick up a few more Sidereal charms, too, like a couple of the Socialize ones (the "no one will ever love you" charm is great).
Now, however, I'm just killing time while waiting for this game to start.
When is Alchemicals supposed to come out? Amazon says December, is that accurate?
I am looking forward to watching this game.
<3
But December sounds to be in the right ballpark. Let me do some digging.
EDIT: As usual, WW has no fixed release date, but it's slated for Q4 '09, so December seems likely.
But the show must go on
I'm shooting for late tonight, but it might be as late as tomorrow.
So I might god mode your characters a little bit to get things moving.
And She Who Lives In Her Name knows we've got reason to be in Malfeas.
So, y'know, I'm fine with that.
And yeah- most of us have either a Motive or an Urge relating to Nexus. So going there or uniting for that would be a good idea.
The Long Way Down: Clank, Warforged FighterWait, dammit.
It will be up before I go to bed, which will be tonight or so early tomorrow morning it might as well be tonight.
Nights after exams/breakups should be spent getting wasted with friends, not writing up OPs for RPGs.
i got an email from her with an activation link for 12 months of a suicide girls subscription
she said "think of it like flowers"
i pretty much came to the conclusion that if my long ex-girlfriends were more thoughtful than the girl i was breaking up with
it wasn't worth getting worried about anyway
in conclusion, the OP is almost ready.
I wrote most of one tonight but I can't seem to concentrate on it so
