Rules

Op deze pagina staat meta-informatie betreffende de Igani campaign.

Basisregels

De spelers kunnen kiezen uit het spelen van Solar of Lunar Exalted.

Alle boeken behalve de Dreams of the First Age serie mogen worden gebruikt voor character creation. De volgende boeken/bronnen zijn voor character creation interessant:

Charms uit het fan-supplement Hundredfold Facets of Enlightenment mogen worden gebruikt met toestemming van de DM. De meeste Charms in dit supplement zijn wel gebalanceerd, maar er zijn een paar uitzonderingen.

Character Creation

We use an experience based character creation process. Characters start out with 450xp, their attributes at 1, their virtues at 1, and no abilities or charms. XP is then spent to satisfy all normal character creation requirements and minima.

Background (increase) NR + 1 Circumstances only

(1): Martial Arts are traditionally taught from sifu to student. Being initiated into a Martial Art requires a sifu to teach you. When you've learned the style up to the form charm it is possible to advance in the style on your own strength as well with double the training time, as with normal Charms (but only for a single martial arts style at the time.) It is possible to self-initiate into a Martial Art with the help of a manual or memory crystal, but this is much harder. Training times become weeks instead of days.

(2): Sorcery and thaumaturgy can be researched as well. Without a tutor or spell instructions, the time required to learn a spell turns to months instead, and this is assuming the sorcerer has a stocked library with plenty of magic theory in it. Without this, the time required turns to years instead. Learning thaumaturgy without a tutor turns the interval to years and requires Occult 5. Thaumaturgic rituals can only be researched with the proper degree and takes one month with a library, and a year without.

(3): When installing a new charm, Alchemicals have to spend Min. Essence + Min. Attribute in their vat. When the charm has been installed at least once, the Alchemical can install it in one hour.

Training Standards

Lunar Exalted of the Silver Faction have deduced that the Cult of the Illuminated trains their Solar Exalted to at least the following skill level (choose one):

Set 1 Rating Set 2 Rating Set 3 Rating
Essence ●●●○○ Essence ●●●○○ Essence ●●●○○
Survival ●●●○○ Presence/Performance ●●●○○ Occult ●●●○○
Melee/Martial Arts ●●○○○ Melee/Martial Arts ●●○○○ Any combat ability ●●○○○
Resistance ●●○○○ Integrity ●●○○○ Investigation ●●○○○
Archery/Thrown ●○○○○ Lore ●○○○○ Lore ●○○○○
Presence ●○○○○ Occult ●○○○○ Integrity ●○○○○
Medicine ●○○○○ Socialize ●○○○○ Linguistics [Old Realm] ●○○○○

Additionally, Cult of the Illuminated Solars possess a number of Ability dots no less than 33 and have no less than 12 Charms.

Three Lunar Exalted trainers, with the backing of the Silver Faction, can provide training in any Attribute or Ability. It is possible to train Sorcery, Thaumaturgy and Martial Arts under their supervision as well. They typically cannot train Solar Charms, unless the Lunars themselves have an equivalent Charm. The following Charms can be trained:

Travel speed

Mode Speed
Caravan 6 miles/day
Mortal/Cart 15 miles/day
Soldier (march) 25 miles/day
Exalted 28 miles/day
Horse 20 miles/day
Horse (no luggage) 30 miles/day
Warhorse 30 miles/day
Marukan horse 35 miles/day
Marukan swift 40 miles/day
Boat (upstream) 40 miles/day
Boat (downstream) 70 miles/day

Huisregels

We gebruiken de volgende huisregels:

Clinch

Je mag verdedigen tijdens een oplossend clinch rol met Athletics.

Health levels

Characters krijgen meer health levels naarmate hun stamina stijgt.

De charm Ox-Body Technique werkt anders dan in het boek. Het character krijgt 7 punten te verdelen per keer dat Ox-Body Technique gekocht wordt:

Tevens krijg je 2 extra dying health levels per aankoop van Ox-Body Technique

Speed

Geen enkele combinatie van factoren kan een speed van minder dan 3 opleveren tenzij dat specifiek in het effect vermeldt staat.

Stunts en virtue channels

De bonussen voor stunts en virtue channels worden automatische successen op de rol ipv. extra dice.

Anima powers

Specialties
