Legends of the Second Age is a play-by-post game. I'm running it a bit differently than a "standard" Exalted game...instead of having all the characters together, the players decide where their characters start out, and the game goes from there. They all exist in the same continuity, and could meet one another, if they happened to be in the same area.

I decided to go this route in running the game for two reasons. First of all, it's a break from the standard campaign type. While it's a bit more work for me, I think it makes creating the illusion of a living world easier. The second reason is...well, to be perfectly honest, I've never liked the whole "There are 100 Solar Exalts in all of Creation...and a half dozen of them all happen to be from the same village" thing.  :)

House Rules

Shouldn't really need to say much in way of explanation, eh?

When: All threads are currently starting on the 1st Day of Descending Air, RY 768

Who: Solars, Lunars, Abyssals, Sidereals, Dragon-Blooded, heroic mortals (including thamaturgists) and heroic ghosts are all available as characters.

House Rules:

• 4 is the cap for starting abilities
• Due to the nature of the PBP format, training time is not used
• Out of "type" martial arts (ex: a Solar learning one of the Five Glorious Dragon Paths) always requires a tutor to learn. A character may begin with out of type MA, but requires a three-point Mentor to do so.

The only request I have with character backgrounds is that you don't try to pull a Lyta or Yushuv and break what few (and rather lax at that) bounds of believablity that Exalted has. Anything other than that is pretty much fair game, subject to my final approval of course.

XP: XP is awarded when characters accomplish significant events, either releated to themselves or to the over-arching plot of the game (yes, there is one.  :) ). I'm also quite willing to hand out bonus XP for writing backgrounds, posting stuff to this page (particularly in-character stuff, which I love, hint hint), making me laugh or being particularly entertaining, etc.
