Path Magic : Path magic is taken directly from Moxianes Mortal Sorcery page, I will use most of the rules therein with the following changes:
**Gaining Sorcery - This is now covered by gaining the Merit "Brass Circle Sorcey" (see below)
**Purchasing Paths - Paths are purchased at the same cost as (Favored) Charms for Exalted and Godblooded, and 8BP/16XP for Mortals who have the Brass Circle Sorcery Merit. If Occult is a <nowiki>Favored/Caste</nowiki> Ability for either Exalt or Mortal the cost lowers itself by 1BP/2XP, and If the second application of the Prodigy Merit is possessed for Occult the cost for learning a path is further reduced by 1BP/2XP.
**Rotes are purchased at a cost of 1BP per two points of dice pool penaly alleviated, or 1XP per point of dice pool penaly alleviated.
**Warding & Summoning will be covered with the Arts provided in the Exalted Players Guide.
**The Paths of Conjuration & Conveyance will be covered with Rituals as I have no access to the Sorcerer book from M:tA, or the patience to create my own Path whole cloth.
**Paying The Cost - Path Magic costs 3 Motes, or 1 Willpower per "casting." If a particular effect calls for additional Willpower this cost may be paid by exalts with an expenditure of an additional 3 Motes; Mortals, even with the Essence Awareness Merit , do not have this luxury.
**Available Paths - 
<nowiki>The Path of /Healing

The Path of /Hellfire - Wall : Cost 3 Dice, Diff 2, Duration
{essence}rounds, Area 1' wide
{essence} tall, and {esence x 3
} long; 1 die to add Essence to
any dimension.
Weapon : Cost 2 Dice, Diff 2,
Duration {Essence} rounds,
stats all at +0 except damage
which equals Essence + Occult
in lethal, and rate equal to
Wits. Damage dice may be lost
to increase other stats of the
Weapon on a 2 for 1 basis.
The weilder of this weapon
attacks using their Essence +
Melee as an atack pool along
with any relevent specialties.
Strength does not add to the
damage of the created weapon.

The Path of /Light

The Path of /Shadow - Fully-Solid objects created by the
Solidify ability of this path have
{Essence} L/B Soak and, if applicable,
{Essence} HL's.

The Path of /Nature - w/o Weather Working

The Path of /Sight - w/o Divination.

The Path of /Fortune</nowiki> 

Thaumaturgy : I will be using the rules created by FrivYeti on [[FrivYeti/HSMortalMagic|this page]]. These rules will be changed as follows :
**Purchasing Arts : Exalts of all types purchase arts at a rate of three dots per Ability, or bonus point at character creation. The Purchase of the second application of the Prodigy Merit lowers cost of purchasing Arts in the standard way 1BP/2XP.
**Purchasing Rituals : Exalts of all types purchase level 1-2 Rituals at a cost of 2 per BP, level 3-4 for 1 BP each, and level 5 for 2BP each.
**Purchasing Sciences : Exalts of all types purchase Sciences at half the cost of Mortals. The second app of the Prodigy Merit for Occult lower costs by an additional 1BP/2XP.

Mortal Charms : This I have also borrowed from FrivYeti. The general rules of which can be found on [[FrivYeti/MortalCharms|this page]]; the rules therin will be changed as follows :
**Essence Expenditure - Mortals,and Exalts may spend 3 Motes to use an effect as opposed to 5.
**Purchasing - Mortal Charms are purchased for 5BP or 10XP by mortals, and 2BP or 4XP for Exalts. Favoring an ability reduces this cost by 1BP or 2XP. The Prodigy Merit has no effect on the costing of Mortal Charms.
**Martial Art Forms - The Martial Art Form Charm purchaseable by Mortals now has
Prerequisite of knowing the Crown Chakra (see Below) associated with that Form. In addition the forms effects can be used with all of the weapons of that particular
style/MA. 

Mortal Martial Arts : These come from the combined efforts of IanPrice and SteveMatson and can be found [[MortalMartialArts|here]]. 
**Purchasing Mortal MA's - Mortals may purchase Chakras for 5BP or 10XP. Exalts
purchase Chakras for 2BP or 4XP. There is no known way to reduce the cost to purchase Chakras. Dragon-Kings have the same restrictions on Chakras that they do on learning Terrestrial Martial arts.
**Paying The Cost - An Essence weilding character may spend 5 Motes as opposed to the 1 willpower to activate a Chakra.
Merits & Flaws : 
. Ambidextrous - Omnidextrous characters gain a +3 to the
Defense rating of Kick attacks; this
effectively increaces kick defense to +0. This
bonus also works for God-Kicking Boots. Also
any weapons held in the feet take a - 3
penalty to speed, and accuracy.

Immunity to a specific Poison, or Disease now
