The Children of Ahlat

Ahlat, the Southern God of War and Cattle, only occasionally sires God-Blooded children -- with a few exceptions, he attempts to hew rather closely to the ideals of the Celestial Bureaucracy and avoid getting too closely involved with mortals. Thus wars in the South tend to be resolved through the might of humans and Exalted alone, unless other Spirits are involved or the God of Southern Warfare chooses to get involved for some other reason.

However, in Harbourhead, the God of War and Cattle is on... much more friendly terms with the local populace. Sometimes one of the Royal Guard finds themselves "blessed" by the God, and gives birth to a child.

The Specifics of Parentage

Typical Inheritance: 4
Typical Patron: 3-4

Background Notes: Influence is certainly possible, and Backing might even be possible if the character is also a female (though children of the God are probably NOT his virgin brides, it's not inconcievable that they are part of the Royal Guard in some way). Especially favored servitors might have War Aurochs as Allies, and could be given various combat artifacts by their Father.
Charm Notes: Ahlat is listed as having every Charm printed, though his Children are perhaps most likely to have charms directly related to Combat. Principle of Motion, Donning Spiritual Armor, and Uncanny Prowess all make a good deal of sense.
Other Notes: Legendary Strength or Stamina are not uncommon, and some of his line probably have both! Prodigy with a number of combat skills is probably common, though neither Martial Arts or Thrown is favored by the Southern God of War and Cattle. God-Body and Divine Resiliency/Ox-Body are a must.
