Chakras: The Building Blocks of Exaltation

by CallMeCal
(Based on an adaptation by my Storyteller of the Renown system from cWoD.)

Synopsis
Shards of Exaltation are made of Essence Patterns. Chakras define and delineate those patterns, and express how they relate to each type of Exaltation.

Chakras

There are ten Chakras, each defined by a type of action and defining a state of being.

Glory

"History shall sing of my greatness for ages to come"

Honor

"Truth, Justice, and the Integrity of Creation"

Shift

"The more I change, the more I stay the same"

Mystery

"That you have never seen me is proof that I exist"

Synergy

"United we stand, divided we fall"

Logic

"There is no greater joy than a well balanced equation"

Jhor

"Ask not for whom the bell tolls..."

Penitence

"Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned"

Plot

"I opened the book and I read about me"

Quintessence

"I am that I am"

Defining the Shards

Each type of Exaltation is defined by three Chakras. Every Exalt can gain and store any Chakra, but she can only use those that define her Exaltation. Also, at the end of every session, she loses one Temporary Chakra of any type not defined by her Exaltation, if she has any. How to pick which one is lost is up to the Storyteller (Player's choice, Storyteller's choice, or some method of randomness). Every Exaltation has Quintessence.
