MY LIEGE! Glad to see you again! Shall we conquer the north-lands now?

Yes, lead our armies forth in conquest. The barbarians of the north-lands will know my wrath and fury!

YAY! Now, the question is, who is Kesler's Lunar mate? Also, shall we begin where we left off?


If you guys want to. Or we could start again if you're not feeling like picking it back up.

Cool. Well, Vince and I have some characters we've devised in our off-time of our ongoing game we'd like to try, if that's cool. Our idea?

Something like this


Also, this is fun!

I may miss half your jokes but I simply must ask... why does Utsuho have a single black mana over her head? As broken as she is, I would've assumed she costs a lot more than that.

@Dietaku-
*Looks up Fist of the North Star*
...
*Comes back three days later*

That manga is so awesome! I haven't gotten to any parts where Toki or Raoh show up yet, but I trust you guys to not be "That Guys". And yeah, you can have 50 exp too.

Fist of the North Star is pretty cool. Although, for me, Kenshiro's ability to beat everything and everyone, assuming his ability to punch them, made the story silly, especially in the later half. I dunno how far you're in, but...

Not that I KEEL U Kung Fu wasn't silly to begin wtih, mind...

Also, I'm game to play some chop-sockey action. If Infernals are allowed, I'll riff off of Shachi, the Raksha who devours demons, and make an Infernal Monster style-using Kimberrian Scourge or something.

Glad you enjoy the manga. I really liked it, and truth be told, that series is part of why I dig Martial Arts as my attack ability of choice in Exalted. Also, "That Guys?" Pshaw. Having played alongside a "That Guy" Solar who was twinked for combat and little else, it doesn't look that fun. So, yeah. Hope that helps.

Other than that, I have a charm I'd like to run past you for my Solar to get.

Sun King Radiance Palm
Cost: 5m
Minimum Abilities: MA 4, Essence 3
Keywords: Combo-OK, Obvious, Holy
Type: Simple (Speed 4)
Duration: Instant
Prereqs: Solar Hero Form
Mortal martial artists despair when their opponents flee from their reach. Not so with the Solar Hero, who strikes down his opponents with fists of light. This charm is a magical ranged MA attack with an effective range of the Lawgiver's MA*5 yards, and an accuracy pool of Dex+MA+Essence, dealing Successes+Essence Lethal damage. This attack deals aggravated damage to Creatures of Darkness.

What do you think?

There's more Nanto down the line, huh? I just got to the point where Ken met up with Toki in Cassandra, so the only Nanto people I've seen are Shin and Rei. Oh, and the Captain in God-land, but he died like a punk. The more I see, the more I realize that Fist of the North Star is pretty much a Martial Arts-based Exalted series. Tons of weird dudes with esoteric powers, and regular people get exploded left and right. It's AWESOME.

And yeah, I didn't read Shachi's page, to avoid spoilers, but go ahead and make your character. I'm cool with an infernal, too, if that's what you're set on doing.

I think that charm looks familiar.
*double-checks Core Book and Scroll of Errata*
Yep, it's a pre-errata nerfed MA Blazing Solar Bolt. Errata made BSB hit harder, you know. I'm fine with it as is, but if I were to make it myself, I'd make the damage (Successes+Essence+WP)L, like post errata BSB. Since it doesn't impose a huge DV penalty or negate most cover, I'd say it's fair to cut out the WP, especially since it costs more essence.

Hahaha, you got me. I wanted a ranged energy attack MA move, a la the Kamehameha, Hadouken, or a million other such moves, and looked over BSB for guidelines. Truth be told, it probably DOES deserve the damage increase, but since I'm taking both Tiger and Bear Unity, as I envision my Solar collecting DB disciples like pokemon, and the damage up Solar Hero gives, shit could very well get ridiculous with how many damage dice I'm rolling.

How about this: In addition to the aforementioned charm's abilities, add in WP to damage, up the cost by 1 WP, and add in an auto-knockdown effect unless you save on an (Dex+Athletics) roll with successes equal to the Solar's essence? This would gel well with Solar Hero style being all about brawling, and the ability to smack people down at range would always be a plus.

Yeah, to say there's more Nanto is something of an understatement, but there it is. I also have a charm to put up, too!

Buffeting Gale Ideal
Cost: 3(+1)m
Required Attributes: 3 Essence
Type: Reflexive (Step 2)
Duration: Instant
Keywords: Combo-OK, Virtue(Compassion)
Prereqs: Who strikes the Wind?
Adorjan's kindness is such that she will shield those in danger with her blossoming winds, only to flay them to ribbons with the slipstreams their enemies' swords and crooked tongues produce. This charm allows the GSP to ignore all penatlies to their Dodge DV or MDV, or add (Compassion) dice to their Dodge DV or MDV. If the GSP pays an additional mote, they can gain both effects simultaneously.

How's that?
