Picture a problem mortals might have in setting.
Okay, now imaging one exalt of each from type comes along, notices an instance of that problem, throws around some of their native charms, and then leaves.
How did they solve the problem?
That's the game.
Each post gives examples for how each exalt type would solve the problem the previous post, then gives a new problem for the next pot to solve.
Here's an example, to clarify;
((I'm paraphrasing these from something Revlid said on the old forum.))
Problem:
A man, living by a lake, is hungry. The lake is filled with fish, but he has no idea how to fish.
A Solar would teach the man to fish and give him a top-tier fishing rod. The man can fish on his own until the rod breaks, at which point he’ll need to make a crappy one of his own; but he can still fish.
A Lunar just gives the man a lot of fish. This works great until the fish run out, at which point the man will starve unless the Lunar comes back.
A Terrestrial would give the man a fishing rod he needs a friend to use. If the rod breaks, his friend and he can work together to fix it, so it’s not exactly spectacular, but it works. He’ll still have to muddle through on how to fish.
A Sidereal would give the man a mermaid wife. The man sort of understands what the Sidereal was going for here, but he’s not sure what to do with this.
An Alchemical would give the man a machine that fishes for him. The man has to spend the rest of his life keeping it going, because if it breaks, he’ll starve.
An Infernal would give the fish legs and makes them eager to be eaten. The man consumes them as they dance onto the shore, and becomes an amphibious mutant himself.
And an Abyssal would simply drop a live shark on the man. He’s no longer hungry, that’s for sure.
And to get this game rolling, here's a simple one.
Problem: Bandits are raiding a village.
