Hi all, and welcome to my wiki page
  
−
I'm Søren Nissen. I've played Exalted since about the last quarter of 2002, I think. That campaign, "the Sunlit Garden," is still running. It's very fun.
+
While here, please observe the following rules:
  
−
This page will generally hold five sections:
+
1) Don't edit my stuff. Leave comments, and I'll edit it myself if I agree with you. Please? I know I can't stop you, but I'd really prefer to have it this way
  
−
*Houserules and custom Charms
+
2) Nevertheless, please DO leave comments, ''especially'' if I've written something that is incorrect. While I dislike being corrected, being wrong annoys me even more.
−
*Other Exalted discussion, both rules and setting related
 
−
*Material for the Sunlit Garden campagin
 
−
*Random stuff, including useful links ;)
 
−
*Commentary
 
  
−
I've been re-arranging this page a lot, and I occasionally forget to mark "minor edit." If you come here and find that nothing much has been changed... That's probably the reason. Sorry.
+
3) Have fun! If my stuff doesn't please you, go elsewhere ^.^
  
−
While you're here, I'd like you to observe the following rule: Don't edit my stuff. Please? I don't mind comments, in fact I ''love'' comments, but I'd prefer it if you don't edit my other stuff. Yes, even typo's. I know I can't stop you, but it would make me much happier if you didn't.

==== al Haqim ibn Said ibn Asai ibn Haqim ====
 +
This is the raw, un-edited prelude for my character, Haqim ibn Said, cut directly from the mIRC log. It is ''very'' rough, and written in two languages. I include it only because aspiring ST's might want to see what a prelude looks like when it's being performed. It has text lines in wrong order, OOC stuff that should have gone in the OOC channel and other stuff like that. In short: Abandon all hope, ye who enter here - [[SRN-HaqimsPrelude01]]

This is the Prelude for Crimson Mane. His player is going to ST some group or other, and he wanted experience with preludes, so I ran one of his characters through a short one. [[SRN-CrimsonManePrelude01]] is the MSN OoC Chat log, [[SRN-CrimsonManePrelude]] is the IC mIRC Chat log.

Here goes custom Charms and revised Charms. I haven't made too many yet, but they're slowly coming as my Sunlit Garden character runs out of official stuff to spend his XP on. You can primarily expect this to be about Bureaucracy, Dodge and Martial Arts.

Since Melee gets fantastic defense, I've toyed a little with the idea of a Dodge offense, which mostly consists of counterattacks. [[SolarDodge/SRNissen|You can find them here]]. [[/SrN_Dodge-Tree|This is the tree they're all on]]

I ran a prelude for Bigeshus character Crimson Mane. He wanted me to teach him how to run preludes for Exalted, so he could run some for his own players. This is the [[/SrN_Bigeshu01|out-of-character]] log, cut-and-pasted directly from the MSN logging system, and [[/SrN_Bigeshu02|here]] is the in-character log, cut, pasted, edited, cut and pasted from mIRC. Tip nr. 1 for online RP'ing: Keep IC and [[OoC]] discussions not only in seperate windows, but also in seperated programs. That way you won't accidentally post fart jokes in the In Character window. Oh: Bigeshu is a guy from the rpg.net forums

Revision as of 21:19, 5 October 2005

Hi all, and welcome to my wiki page

While here, please observe the following rules:

1) Don't edit my stuff. Leave comments, and I'll edit it myself if I agree with you. Please? I know I can't stop you, but I'd really prefer to have it this way

2) Nevertheless, please DO leave comments, especially if I've written something that is incorrect. While I dislike being corrected, being wrong annoys me even more.

3) Have fun! If my stuff doesn't please you, go elsewhere ^.^

Preludes

al Haqim ibn Said ibn Asai ibn Haqim

This is the raw, un-edited prelude for my character, Haqim ibn Said, cut directly from the mIRC log. It is very rough, and written in two languages. I include it only because aspiring ST's might want to see what a prelude looks like when it's being performed. It has text lines in wrong order, OOC stuff that should have gone in the OOC channel and other stuff like that. In short: Abandon all hope, ye who enter here - SRN-HaqimsPrelude01

This is the edited prelude for my character, Haqim ibn Said. This is the version I recommend reading, if you want to know about my character - SRN-HaqimsPrelude02

Crimson Mane

This is the Prelude for Crimson Mane. His player is going to ST some group or other, and he wanted experience with preludes, so I ran one of his characters through a short one. SRN-CrimsonManePrelude01 is the MSN OoC Chat log, SRN-CrimsonManePrelude is the IC mIRC Chat log.

Rules discussion

Some people don't get how virtues and the Great Curse works. Here's a thorough analysis for Solars SRN-Virtues01

Grasping Mantis Defense is a really hardcore evil Charm. Read why I think so here: SRN-GMD01

I've made a revised version of Grasping Mantis Defense for Players Guide powercombat: SRN-GMD02

Setting discussions

Travelling is a big deal. You don't do it just for fun, and especially not if you're leading an army. SRN-Travel

The ages of Exalted are varied, but they're not as abruptly changed as some would have you believe SRN-Ages01

Random stuff I want a link to

QuotesofGoodness is for funny quotes

QuotesofCoolness is for useful quotes

Commentary Section

- I just wanted to put in a comment so the commentary section didn't look so emtpy medivh

HOOAH! Welcome to Wiki! Remember BestPractices, and you might want to nest your entries instead of making them their own root folders and all that mess. If that made sense. Y'know, like SRNissen/Foo instead of SRN-Foo. Anyway, welcome and *enjoy the sauce*. -Raksha Boy
