TaleOfTwoEmpresses

A Tale of Two Empresses concerns the lives and times of a patchwork Circle of Dragonblooded in the final years of the Scarlet Empress' Realm. Civil strife, invaders from beyond Creation, corruption from within, and the Yozi themselves unknowingly work together to bring low the last bastion of true order left in Creation.

By fate or by chance, this Circle will play a role in the fall of the Realm. The Realm's survival, who sits on the throne, even whether or not the Realm survives hangs upon their decisions.

One thing to mention and be careful of. If anyone can learn Spirit charms, and spirit charms have no real pre-reqs, there's a risk you'll get a lot of people with Principle of Motion, which is, quite frankly, one of those game-changing end-all be-all charms. There are a few other spirit charms that amazing, but PoM is right up there. Just wanted to throw that out there, in case you want to check character sheets for it, or adapt your NPC's to have also learned that oh-so-butter-smooth charm. -- GreenLantern

Essence Plethora, Reserve of Will. - IanPrice, mentioning the other big contenders.

Indeed, I've considered the potential problems. My first line of defense is to ask players, politely, to not make me House Rule it. :) Past that, I've got a few other plans for dealing with them. - Haecceity

I'm guessing a design intent is to make bartering with spirits for power a more interesting affair. -ADamiani

Please, please, please - read BestPractices. You're scattering your logs all over top-level pages, when they really belong as subpages from this one. wikilawn getoffer Moxiane

Oh, don't worry. I intend to move off the Wiki as soon as I can, as I really hate the Wiki format. Its just a convenient place to store crap til I find a better place to put it all. -Hae
