Are all currently printed charms available (barring the ones you've already disallowed)? For instance, I'd like to try out the solar hero build, but to do so I'd like to utilize expansion charms from Lords of Creation, Internals, and Glories most High: Unconquered Sun.
+
[[Sabis]] Just to clarify, Your full moon lunar is NOT tattooed, right? Because if it is, IIRC it cannot benefit from the Pinnacle charm of EDF, as the tattoo's stop any effects that alter the Lunar's body except for their own innate charms and gifts.

It makes me sad tho, because otherwise they are such good candidates for EDF. Untattooed Lunars and Alchemicals (due to their attribute boosting) are by far the best for EDF. --[[Sabis]]

:DotFA Charms are fine. Shame no Solar charms exist in that book. But the Lunar + DB one are cool, taken with any relevant errata. Solar Hero Expansions from SotM aren't recommended, but I suppose they'd be ok if you want them. Jon Chung's revisions of those Charms are fine. :) [[nikink]]

More then happy to Have Aoshi pair up with anybody she hasn't fought yet. Ess 3 preferably, although I can work her into an Ess 5 build if I have to. - [[Muzz]]

:DotFA has no solar charms?? Lords of creation, pages 55-66 seem to have them... some of which I'd like to use, like the solar hero expansion charm and a certain athletics charm.

Hey Nikink, let's do a rematch of TCL vs HULK at essence 3 w/ my new (no PCB) build. Too much downtime between things happening, i can do 2 or 3 matches at once. =) -[[Sabis]]

::I look at those pages and see words written down that make no sense and have no place in Exalted, So nope. :) Jon Chung's Solar Hero Style revision may have that expansion charm listed, in which case you could use that version. [[nikink]]

The Rules

The rules are simple, the fluff nigh non-existent. Pick a splat, pick a Martial Arts Style; FIGHT.

It would be best if all participants in a match were of equivalent power tier and Essence.

  • Perhaps a series of matches
    • Unarmed + Unarmoured
    • Armed and Armoured (No Artefacts)
    • Artefacts
  • Say, 20 Charms total per contestant
    • This includes MA Style (usually 9-12 Charms)
    • Contestants may mutually agree to more or fewer Charms
  • Same Essence level
    • perhaps a match at Ess 3, and a match at Ess 5
  • Double ups are allowed!
    • Nothing wrong with two Solar with Lunar Hero Style pairing off, for example, it just won't prove who's MA style is strongest. :)

This is a potential 6 matches per pair of contestants! But some can be skipped, negotiation encouraged. Depends how long the matches go for I suppose. All for fun. :)

  • Essence 3 Character builds
    • Make a starting character. Simple eh? This should include motivations and Intimacies
    • The Charms and Essence are assumed to be where all your XP has been spent to date.
    • Any Charms you do not qualify for in your Style, you do not have. Duh! But you do get that number of extra Charms if needed to balance with opponent.
    • you get three bonus points to use solely for building a combo
  • Essence 5 Character builds
    • Take that same character,
    • increase Essence to 5,
    • add 50xp
    • Get the rest of Style Charms free, 5 other charms of your choice and character with least number of Charms in total gets bonus Charms.
    • You get 4bp, and then 5bp solely for building combos (Or Arrays, as it were)

Allowed/recommended Celestial MA Styles listed below

Put your name next to any you wish to try out.

  • Ok, bit wonky: Feel free to use, but they have not yet been errated, so more wonky than the others.
    • The Art of Forceful Declaration Style
    • The Art of Meditative Discussion Style
    • The Art of Relentless Persuasion Style
    • The Art of Victorious Concession Style
    • Ebon Shadow Style
    • Mantis Style
    • Tiger Style

Comments and Observations

I would imagine, before any contest has begun, the Immaculate Dragon Styles will be among the most powerful. I would like Storm Crow Style to be slightly more powerful than Snake by Essence 5, and hopefully about equal at Essence 3.

Bencyclopedia has also been pondering a Lunar Clinch god build. Clinchy styles I can think of (without double checking books): IMS, SHS, MS and DMS.

Sabis Just to clarify, Your full moon lunar is NOT tattooed, right? Because if it is, IIRC it cannot benefit from the Pinnacle charm of EDF, as the tattoo's stop any effects that alter the Lunar's body except for their own innate charms and gifts.
