Played GURPS and some WoD since I was 12, beggining play with those book-games where you skip to numbers. Played a Supers campaign that spanned 8 years and countless rewrites and seasons, where godhood came and went, and the stakes managed to always get higher. Tried doing it in fantasy with an original setting named Ashes of Eternity.. when Selina, the great Dark Angel, threw Exalted in my lap. And it was so alike AoE, it hurt. And so, I became an Exalted addict, due to the fact it is the perfected version of most of the things I like, the perfected version of the vision I had myself for fantasy!

Solars, the shiny heroes. I love them, and the heroism and coolness you can be with them, to death. Finally, a force of light in a game that isn't candyland. Dragon-Blooded, the nobility, the elementals. How can you not love being all elemental, burning, hard as rock, like the water, jumping to the air...? Lunars, the shapeshifters. I HATE their book, but love their idea and concept. We need our changers! Abyssals, the dark coolness! Unleash darkness and void, cover yourself in blood, and celebrate! And Sidereals... Fate ninjas, mystery men, hollywood spies from heaven.
 +
 
 +
What is there not to like? ^_^
 +
 
 +
I am biased towards Solars or Lunars ( Used to be Sidereals, but while running it shifted! ), but... by such a small margin it doesn't count! Oddly enough, I tend to do more things for Abyssals and Dragon-Blooded and Lunars, but... they need it! ( and I wanted to place my own spin on Lunars! ) Solars already have Sol Invictus, anyway!
 +
 
 +
I would probably like to make a Martial Art, but it feels so WRONG when Lunars needed decent mechanics, DBs need proper Elemental Charms and tricks, Brawlers need defense, Abyssals need ways to absorb and play with souls, and, and, and... well, you get it! I did get to contribute to MartialArtsRelay recently, though!

I design Dragon-Blooded Charms with an eye to Elemental Control in a manner that fits the thematics of the Ability: My goal is to have a complete suite of control on each Aspect, following from the Air Aspect Charms, by far the best in the Dragon-Blooded hardback, where Linguistics is about communication in the air, Thrown is about using Air to fight (including creating 'hard air' armor). So Awareness involves perceiving the world through the Earth, Sail about controlling the waves and moving through them, Larceny about the mysterious, elusive aspects of the water, swallowing things whole and reflecting them, and Survival is about control and mastery of the Woodlands and Medicine about growth and substances.

Hey, Cat-san, fantastic work on the Lunars.  I'm really impressed by your re-envisioning of the splat.  Two questions... do you feel you're done, that you've covered all the charms that need to be covered? And two, what kind of playtesting have these charmsets undergone? I have no head for sizing up mechanics by looking, I only determine things are broken when my players turn my stories into smoking craters.  Thanks! --[[UncleChu]]

: Yay~! Thank you, thank you! And, well.... I am pretty much done, yes! I keep editing things, smaller things, as I am very indecisive, but overall, most of it is done(although I still intend to add one or two other charm cascades). I am going to playtest them now, actually... in Little Silver Lie *Points up!* Going to use them in A Dance of Angels, but that is too bizarre to count as actual playtest(it is a game that is mechanically... weird). But, being the people that I asked the help of while making it, I do not think there is anything there *broken*! - [[GoldenCat]]

Hey [[GoldenCat]]!  You still post around here?

: Hey, been awhile, Arius! And yep, lots and tots of progress. With Little Silver Lie working, and the Lunars on Dance of Angels, I have been able to work out lots of bugs(and boy, were they there ^^; The 'extra limbs' stuff still worked as an artifact of a bygone age, thus being horribly broken. I lowered the ceiling for Ascension's insane attributes a little bit, tweaked the Breeding a bit and made lots of name, balance and such changes)... and got to begin the work on the [[GoldenCat/Chimerae|Chimera]]. Which I am mighty pleased with, so far!<br><br>And as for 1e... yes! 2e's mostly retreading the ground so far. We'll have to wait a few years to get shiny Sidereals. 1e has stuff like SI and Children of the Shifting Moon and all Exalted types and suchlike! That, and 2e fluff / style leaves me, and lots of people I know just... cold. I am in lots and lots of 1e games, and I don't see any of them converting anytime soon. 2e has some good fixes, like DV and ticks and the social combat system... but it has just as many bugs, if not more(and so the same patching work, and we're ahead on 1e, at least. Also, the Charms... just aren't the same)... so, far as I have seen, it fails before 1e.... so, again, yes~! -- [[GoldenCat]]

But really excited to hear that 1E is still going strong.  That was the sense I got about it... any new game's gonna be broken, and 1E's already got so many great fixes.  Interesting that the new charms aren't up to snuff, as I understood it they were expanded a great deal and made a lot more usable.  Though I did notice the generic 3 charms did seem to take some sparkle away. In any case, glad you're well. --[[UncleChu]]

Revision as of 02:01, 19 March 2008

AKA Colapso, Delwyn, Daniel, 'That guy', Medic, Priest, Whitey, Sleepy...

Some people will say I am a creative romantic,
Some people will say I am a bloody-minded fanatic,
Some people will say I am a nice idealist,
Some people will say I am an explosive hermit,
Some people will say I am a monster,
Some people will say I am a fun pervert,
Some people will say I am a good friend,
Others, that I am a bad friend.

To a degree, maybe all of them are right ^^

Or maybe I am just a crazy 24 years old Brazilian, used to be an aspiring writer, now a History student, who has the urge to create stuff and loves Exalted to death! I live in the wonderful city, the paradise of beauty and chaos that is Rio de Janeiro... it's kinda like Nexus, just pretty.

Played GURPS and some WoD since I was 12, beggining play with those book-games where you skip to numbers. Played a Supers campaign that spanned 8 years and countless rewrites and seasons, where godhood came and went, and the stakes managed to always get higher. Tried doing it in fantasy with an original setting named Ashes of Eternity.. when Selina, the great Dark Angel, threw Exalted in my lap. And it was so alike AoE, it hurt. And so, I became an Exalted addict, due to the fact it is the perfected version of most of the things I like, the perfected version of the vision I had myself for fantasy!

Things to like! : Fruits, Chocolate, Prettyness, Fun, Anime and Manga! (X, Ghost in the Shell, Excel Saga, Naruto, Hellsing, Cowboy Bebop, Fate Stay Night, Saint Seya... and others. Many, many others!)RPGs! Xenogames, Final Fantasy, Suikostuff, Rio de Janeiro, my family, Comics(So few others do on my closest 'net friends.. mwah! Nextave rules! X-Factor is fun! Planetary is cool! Yay for whatever Busiek writes!), Warcraft, GURPS (Yay for ultra-mixed Supers! You haven't lived before playing Authority- level supers mixing In Nomine, Psionics, Ultra-Tech, V:TM and W:TA!), History... Heroes! (Go Hiro! Go Matt!) and stuffs.Lots of stuffs!

... And Milady. The Great Creator, the Mother of Words, the Lady of Darkness. Vally of my heart =^..^=

Exalted to like! : All of them!

Solars, the shiny heroes. I love them, and the heroism and coolness you can be with them, to death. Finally, a force of light in a game that isn't candyland. Dragon-Blooded, the nobility, the elementals. How can you not love being all elemental, burning, hard as rock, like the water, jumping to the air...? Lunars, the shapeshifters. I HATE their book, but love their idea and concept. We need our changers! Abyssals, the dark coolness! Unleash darkness and void, cover yourself in blood, and celebrate! And Sidereals... Fate ninjas, mystery men, hollywood spies from heaven.

What is there not to like? ^_^

I am biased towards Solars or Lunars ( Used to be Sidereals, but while running it shifted! ), but... by such a small margin it doesn't count! Oddly enough, I tend to do more things for Abyssals and Dragon-Blooded and Lunars, but... they need it! ( and I wanted to place my own spin on Lunars! ) Solars already have Sol Invictus, anyway!

I would probably like to make a Martial Art, but it feels so WRONG when Lunars needed decent mechanics, DBs need proper Elemental Charms and tricks, Brawlers need defense, Abyssals need ways to absorb and play with souls, and, and, and... well, you get it! I did get to contribute to MartialArtsRelay recently, though!

Myah!

Weird Dreams

  • A Dance of Angels - An insanely mixed Campaign set on the North, between the Bishop and the Lover, between the unforgiven sins of the Celestial's past and the impossible fight that is to keep anything from being at the present. A game that took a long time to get to the right place, but that now is a source of infinite joy to this cat! (Moved to Char's wiki, but part of it is still Here!)
  • Fated in Dark Stars - A Dragon-Blooded campaign I ran on Open. The first Exalted campaign I ever ran, and in many ways the spiritual predecessor to A Dance of Angels. about a group of Dynasts and their Sidereal who go to Varang after an attempted coup slays the royal couple, leaving an uncertain young girl in the control of a country that stirs to chaos. A very fun game, all told. I miss it.
  • Jade and Emerald - A God-Blooded and Dragon-Blooded game to relax I made on the East... it has now become a round-robin STing game, very different from its original incarnation, and hosted elsewhere. But ah well!
  • Little Silver Lie - A Lunar game whose primary purpose is to be a test for my 'Child of Shifting Moon', with a gathering of Lunars who end up drawn together by the possession of a book that is sought by many forces in heavens and hells, and the threat issued by one of those forces against all of them. In search for the book's truth, they travel Creation, fight all possible things and discover truths Man Was Not Meant to Know, and fighting to remain alive while bringing old, powerful secrets to light...
  • The Diamond Age - Amidst the Age of Sorrows, the lights return... and create a time of adventure, a time of madness! A time of lights that shine with the clarity of diamonds, a time for those who will do anything for what shines like them, even get them out of another's hands! For many that period will be an age of Obsidian or Ice... but for those in the East, in that wild time, it is a Diamond Age! A mixed game with high chargen, about high adventure and epic stakes in episodic installments, which encourages Player Characters to be off-the-wall and unique!

People!

Links to pages of people who are way more creative than me! :


Charlequin - Is a genius. Great worker of charms, nice person, and able to create original and wondrous things. Has my admiration.
DarkheartOne - Shelby is as much a pervert as I am, and our perversions intersect in many fun places! He is someone I wish only the best to, and who plays such fun characters as the woundrous and fun Child of Wyld Days! Really lucky to have met him.
DarkSirenSally - Mieu has a great Irc channel, and a knack to beautiful, descriptive writings. She is plays healers with *feeling*!
FourWillowsWeeping - I disagree with half he says, I dislike him a third of the time, but the rest of it, he is a fun, fun person able to create the most *beautiful* imagery in Charms and Martial Arts. Just do not mention 'soak' , 'Lunars' and 'Mortals' around him!
Greymane - Is a genius. In many ways the best writer I know, able to create complex and original personalities and places with a bare figment of an idea, and write tons of pages about it in a blink. Pehaps my best friend those days, and someone I care for deeply.
JDuel100 - Social-addict plays fun characters with gigantic social numbers, and an equally great figure. Worries me a bunch, too! >.>
Kazuki - My other brother, the raven is like me, a protector by heart. He is a creative person of many, many talents, who does not give himself half the credit he deserves.
Kraken - One of my greatest friends those days, Skwid is someone who is always there to help me in this insanity that is my game life, one of my gurus, and someone who really knows how to lighten up and just have fun. A great, great person.
PassengerPigeon - Comes up with very interesting mechanics! and plays a great character and a fun game!
Selina - Milady of my heart is one of the best writers I know, able to pour so much emotion into something, to create writings suffused with it, with her coolness, able to switch between being scary and cute so fast... and to care and love for her creations in ways I can only hope to match one day. My muse.
SlipNine - Rin is someone I care for a whole lot, a child of chaos able to make me laugh and create wondrous creatures of chaos and shadows, with originality to awe all, and sarcasm that can make anyone snicker.


Morrigu - Demon girl is a force of creativity in many arts, who really should think better of herself and her work!
Raccoon - Slade is a fun person who popped up in Tower, and a good friend of Mieu. He is fun.
Seiraryu - Is a fun person, even if he comes from that horrible country! Made nice rules for things, along with cool and wordy bios, and someone I would really like to play with, even though we disagree on Lunars!
Telgar - A genius with the Dragon-Blooded, who made them with much wonder, creator of the only few Terrestrial Martial Arts that I see on the level of the canonical ones.
UncleChu - Very creative person, helped me greatly in his input on my Lunar Charms, and whose calendar - a very, very good calendar - helps me greatly in A Dance of Angels! ^_^


CrownedSun - Solar Creator Guy. Creativitive!
David. - Set out to make the longest MA ever! Nice guy, and likes ADoA :O
Haren - Abyssal Biochemist Lady. Lots of Underworld-y goodness. I still say she is a Daybreak!
Ikselam - Half the Hearthstones I have ever seen used come from him. He creates them very, very well.
Moxiane - Does wonders with artifacts, the best high-grade ones I have ever seen, nice MAs, and a great Elemental Bolt system!


Comments

Hey, Cat-san, fantastic work on the Lunars. I'm really impressed by your re-envisioning of the splat. Two questions... do you feel you're done, that you've covered all the charms that need to be covered? And two, what kind of playtesting have these charmsets undergone? I have no head for sizing up mechanics by looking, I only determine things are broken when my players turn my stories into smoking craters. Thanks! --UncleChu

Yay~! Thank you, thank you! And, well.... I am pretty much done, yes! I keep editing things, smaller things, as I am very indecisive, but overall, most of it is done(although I still intend to add one or two other charm cascades). I am going to playtest them now, actually... in Little Silver Lie *Points up!* Going to use them in A Dance of Angels, but that is too bizarre to count as actual playtest(it is a game that is mechanically... weird). But, being the people that I asked the help of while making it, I do not think there is anything there *broken*! - GoldenCat

I went through all your Lunars stuff and copied & pasted it all into Word... and have a 104 page document. Maybe the Lunars book didn't tickle your fancy because they had to cut out tons of stuff! In any case, its saved on the ol' HD if the Wiki ever vanishes. --UncleChu

... I WANT! You are certainly a more patient man than I... could you send? My e-mail is removed so scary web-spiders dont find your e-mail and dumpload all sorts of interesting e-mail about penis growth and loan consolidation --GoldenCat

Just a little note, 'cause I'm David., not Davidl. :) - David. (punctuation will conquer the world!)

... oh damn. I'll go fix it, if you haven't already! SorrySorrySorry, D! --GoldenCat

Hey GoldenCat! You still post around here? Its been awhile. Say, do you have the .doc file I e-mailed to you of your own Lunar work? I had a hard drive crash and lost it, and rather than saving it all again, i was wondering if you could hurl the .doc back at me. I can be reached at shmoo9 WHICH IS AT hotmail AND THEN A DOT com . Or just drop me a note at my user page, i'll be checking. --UncleChu

Done! -- GoldenCat

Heylo again, GoldenCat! I was just ducking in since I've been out of the Exalted loop for awhile (been working on a massive population headcount project of the supernatural denizens of the old World of Darkness). How goes the progress of the Lunar project? And does anyone play 1E anymore? --UncleChu

Hey, been awhile, Arius! And yep, lots and tots of progress. With Little Silver Lie working, and the Lunars on Dance of Angels, I have been able to work out lots of bugs(and boy, were they there ^^; The 'extra limbs' stuff still worked as an artifact of a bygone age, thus being horribly broken. I lowered the ceiling for Ascension's insane attributes a little bit, tweaked the Breeding a bit and made lots of name, balance and such changes)... and got to begin the work on the Chimera. Which I am mighty pleased with, so far!

And as for 1e... yes! 2e's mostly retreading the ground so far. We'll have to wait a few years to get shiny Sidereals. 1e has stuff like SI and Children of the Shifting Moon and all Exalted types and suchlike! That, and 2e fluff / style leaves me, and lots of people I know just... cold. I am in lots and lots of 1e games, and I don't see any of them converting anytime soon. 2e has some good fixes, like DV and ticks and the social combat system... but it has just as many bugs, if not more(and so the same patching work, and we're ahead on 1e, at least. Also, the Charms... just aren't the same)... so, far as I have seen, it fails before 1e.... so, again, yes~! -- GoldenCat
Wow, excellent, glad to hear it. Definitely send me a note when you feel its at a good stable place and needs another archiving, I'd be happy to help you out on such a tedious chore. I never got a chance to use the last archive I made of it, and may not for a long time. We'll have to see. But really excited to hear that 1E is still going strong. That was the sense I got about it... any new game's gonna be broken, and 1E's already got so many great fixes. Interesting that the new charms aren't up to snuff, as I understood it they were expanded a great deal and made a lot more usable. Though I did notice the generic 3 charms did seem to take some sparkle away. In any case, glad you're well. --UncleChu


Saudações! Quem diria que o primeiro comentário na minha página seria de um brasileiro. heheh. --Nabeshin

.. boa ideia. Por que eu escrevi em inglês? Acho que foi por força do habito... nunca escrevo no Wiki, nunca escrevo nada de RPG em português... meio destreinado nisso. Mas, saudações ^_^ Bom ver gente da pátria curtindo brilhar e explodir coisas em Exalted! -- GoldenCat

I notice that the majority of the orphaned pages that start with G are yours. If you get a chance, the UserFriendlyCategories effort would much appriciate it if you added links to your pages in the various "category" pages. - Wordman

Actually, the vast majority of those are logs and parts of A Dance of Angels that did get orphaned when I cut off that game from this wiki(the people who said they'd help me put the logs up refused to use it), I was going to delete them, but there were too many, and I am pretty sure that Kraken and Xyphoid made it so the program that copied them all couldn't just delete them. So I am probably not going through them until I have a looooooooot of patience on my hands. And that is a LOT.

BUT, I see that Sarawasti, Legends, and a couple characters aren't there, so I'll work them in *Nods* ~ GoldenCat
That being the case, could you please take a sec to join the conversation I just started on UserFriendlyCategories about how to handle the Dance of Angels pages? - Wordman

I notice that one of your favorites (GoldenCat/MagicalMaterials) leads to a page with nothing on it. Thought you might want to correct that before the next Favorites update (20 Mar). - Wordman
