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 | 3 | Essence | 3 | Essence | 3 | |
Survival | 3 | Presence/Performance | 3 | Occult | 3 | |
Melee/Martial Arts | 2 | Melee/Martial Arts | 2 | Any combat ability | 2 | |
Resistance | 2 | Integrity | 2 | Investigation | 2 | |
Archery/Thrown | 1 | Lore | 1 | Lore | 1 | |
Presence | 1 | Occult | 1 | Integrity | 1 | |
Medicine | 1 | Socialize | 1 | Linguistics [Old Realm] | 1 |
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:
- Any Excellency
- Infinite (Ability) Mastery
- Ox-Body Technique
- Invincible Essence Reinforcement
- Graceful Crane Stance
- Immanent Solar Glory
- Spirit Detecting Glance
- All-Encompassing Sorcerer's Sight
- Durability of Oak Meditation

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.
*Stamina 1: -0/-1/-1/-2/-2/-4/incap (dyingx2)

*Stamina 3: -0/-1/-1/-1/-2/-2/-2/-4/incap (dyingx6)

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:
- -0 health level: 4 punten
- -1 health level: 3 punten
- -2 health level: 2 punten
- -4 health level: 1 punt (max. 1 over alle Ox-Body Techniques)
- upgrade health level uit een vorige Ox-Body Technique: 1 punt
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
- De automatische power van de Twilight Anima reduceert alle damage met 1. De geactiveerde versie blijft onveranderd.
- De automatische power van de Zenith verhoogt alle damage tegen Creatures of Darkness met de Essence rating van het karakter. De minimum dicepools die in het boek worden vermeld omvatten geen damage pools.
Specialties
- Je mag meer dan 3 punten aan specialties trainen
- Je mag geen tegenstrijdige specialties leren
- Er kunnen maximaal 3 punten tegelijk geclaimed worden in een willekeurige situatie
Wapens en harnassen
Voor wapens gebruiken we het supplement het Armorium. Deze wapens zijn beter gebalanceerd dan de wapens in de Exalted boeken zelf. Bijna elk wapen uit de Exalted serie staat ook in het Armorium.
Voor harnas worden de volgende regels gebruikt:

Buff Jacket (leather) | 1 | +3L/4B | Light | -1 | 2 | J |

- S: Silk. The armor looks like normal clothing and does not count as armor for the purpose of Charms. It stacks with other armor as well. No magical material bonuses.
- E(x): Essence force. The armor generates an essence force that protects the character, which is activated by paying x motes. Night caste Solar Exalted can activate it for double this cost, making it invisible. The forcefield does not count as armor for the purpose of Charms, but does not stack with other armor. The armor is built very small at its base and can therefore be easily concealed with the right clothing.
- H(x): x heartstone settings
- R(x): Has a repair rating. The item needs regular maintenance and is not indestructible. R(2): Maintenance needed once a month (2 weeks if used in combat, 1 week if frequent combat). Maintenance takes 1 hour and resources 2 worth of material. Maintenance is automatically successful with Lore 2 or higher.
- Orichalcum/Soulsteel bonus: +2 soak, +2 hardness.
- Moonsilver bonus: Reduces mobility penalty with 3 points. Remaining 2 points are added to soak, 3rd to hardness.
- Jade bonus: Reduces fatigue with 2 points. First remaining point is added to soak, second to hardness.
- Starmetal: Ongewijzigd, zo zeldzaam dat het niet is toegestaan bij character creation.
Charm trees
Lore
- 'Harmonious Academic Methodology' heeft als prerequisite 'Power-Awarding Prana' (in plaats van 'Any Two Lore Excellencies')
War
- 'Tiger Warrior Training Technique' heeft als prerequisite 'Rout-Stemming Gesture' (in plaats van 'Heroism-Encouraging Presence')
Martial Arts
== Dreaming Pearl Courtesan Style ==
- 'Lethal Paper Fan Attack': De optie om speed te verlagen is niet beschikbaar.
Awareness
- 'Keen senses [x]': Deze charm haalt tegenwoordig de external penalties weg voor de relevante zintuigen.
- 'Unsurpassed [x] Discipline': Deze charm verdubbeld niet meer het aantal successen van je awareness roll. In plaats daarvan laat het de gebruiker dingen waarnemen die buiten het menselijk waarnemingsvermogen liggen.
Artifacts
Some artifacts require special rules to deal with either 2.5, or with the campaign setting itself.
Hearthstone Bracers
Instead of the 3-die bonus to dodge, Hearthstone Bracers give a 20% mote discount on activation of Anima powers.
Teamwork
When performing teamwork, characters who grant a die in assistance grant an additional die for each Excellency they have that applies to the roll.
Limits on Attributes and Abilities
The upper limit for buying Attributes is 5 or (Permanent Essence)+1, whichever is higher. Lunar Exalted and Alchemical Exalted can buy up to 5 or (Permanent Essence)+2.
The upper limit for buying Abilities is 5 or (Permanent Essence)+2, whichever is higher. Lunar Exalted and Alchemical Exalted can buy up to 5 or (Permanent Essence)+1.
