... You mean apart from being one of the premier Lunar combat forms?...

Friendly Ess 6+ Alchemical? It can also be the arcology, if need be.

Like for sure there are some/lots of *EVIL, EVIL, EVIL* Deathlords (I submit that you can still make the Mask of Winters play that role).

But I wonder if maybe Oblivion doesn't have to be inherently evil this edition, just the antithesis of Creation (which would definitely be enough reason to fight against it if you were so inclined).

I mean, the 3e core already has Death Knights focusing on the Romance of the Grave, so maybe thats the direction we're headed towards.

So just something that came to mind while I was discussing the subject on the Exalted Discord. Could the Deathlords be... not complete and utter douchebag-bosses this edition?

I mean:

1. The relationship between Abyssal and Deathlord is supposed to be closer in 3e, and not necessarily antagonistic.
2. Previous edition "bad examples" have been given a makeover to keep their essence but bring them more in line with what players want in a mentor (see Raksi)
3. Previous edition "fake religions" like the Immaculate Philosophy have been rendered...

To your question, so simple, I offer answers, in Triple!

1. He’s possibly still there, they didn’t get around to mentioning every elder Lunar from past editions, after all. (Silver Python and Rain Deathflyer also didn’t make the cut)

2. He’s been written completely out due to the problematic nature of his character. (Who’s Desus?)

3. He’ll make a reappearance in a later supplement covering the region.

There is nothing in Food Gathering Exercise that either:

1. Says it doesn't work in the ocean, where heck you can probably scrape barnacles off the side of your boat if you are desperate.
2. Says you can't use it while riding/moving in a vehicle.

So go nuts. Survival doesn't end at the shore as far as I am aware....

Chompy’s Solar mate is one IIRC....

They did take all those instances of "prana" out....

[prototype00]

The Drive Thru version got updated to the final version if you backed it on KS....

And if you were in the Kickstarter, you’ve already received the final copy on DT RPG.

Everspace on the Exalted Discord was kind enough to compile the changes which I faithfully copy here:

Glossery:
