[OOC] [Exalted 2.5] The Scarlet Sky Conspiracy – An Epistolary Game

[Eura]

Be warned Anathema charges exp for backgrounds and RAW dragon-blooded costs so my character sheet is technically 76 because of that. With Resplendent Wood I have 38 experience. I've been keeping record and can copy the ledger if necessary.

New OOC thread here.

For my sanity I'm gonna say you're all on 20xp. You got free access to edit your own sheets via the 1st post link, put in anything missing and feel free to spend XP as you like. I trust you all! Anything you need to clarify on yell at me now.

Will probably be a post tomorrow as I got shit to do today!

[Fansibubbles]

The fair folk allow you to take significant liberties. I'm sure you'll get your chance though!

Going to try for a post tomorrow. Will also sort out character sheets then too, which I'll need help with and I guess start a new OOC so I can do that. Wheeeee.

[Guancyto]

...shit, that is a hard act to follow.

Let's see Carmela beat playing Gateway with a Behemoth. :P

I still don't see any information on Florivet. :/

Ok, this is weird. When I view the post, it's not there, but when I click "edit" it shows up. :/ The same thing happens with any other edits I make to the post - they show up under "edit" but not when viewing.

Also, loved your letter this month Eura.

Here's the addendum:

----------------------------

Florivet is a Soul of the End of All Wisdom, concerned with military matters and dirty fighting. It will hate anything high-minded or fancy, and prefers 'good old fights'. Its weakness is that it loves to fight, and is easily drawn into combat - perhaps a plan involving engaging it into combat and slowly retreating to pull it away from Mnemon's fleet, where you can bring more force to bear? At the very least, it should be easily distracted from controlling the winds and into fighting personally in the midst of a larger conflict.

(The addendum goes on at some length, mostly dry academic information and historical anecdotes about other Dragon Blooded that have dealt with Florivet. One might suspect Aisa of having read several volumes on the subject, and having trouble containing her enthusiasm for sharing. The essential information is all contained in first paragraph above, however.)

Updated my letter to actually include information on Florivet rather than merely claiming it's there.

Well write up letters and tell me in the PM also what your XP should be after this round and I'll adjust it! May need a new OOC to do that so that'll happen too.

[BlueWinds]

Generally at this point we just all start writing our letters - and once all the PC letters are out, you'd post 1-2 NPC letters (Ryu, Titus, whoever else Guan has been teasing me will do updates) and we start the cycle again.

So far, the rule has been ~4xp per letter/month. From the opening post:

1. One for writing the letter itself.
2. One for revealing details of your character.
3. One for revealing details of your character's setting.
4. One for advancing the Scarlet Sky Conspiracy’s goals.

I think everyone has gotten all four points every month so far. So if you want to keep up that tradition, 4xp each. If you want to change things, then who knows how much XP you owe?

[Fansibubbles]

Think we're at a wrap for PM's more or less. Feel free to post your IC Letters now and also to send me a PM with which Backgrounds you want to get from the past week now you know how it played out.

Someone want to explain to me how much XP I owe and what I need to update?

[Fansibubbles]

Aiming to be wrapped up by end of Saturday so you can do letters. Posts coming in a few hours!

[Guancyto]

I think you meant Ragara Saveria for Ryu's wife. Zara is Aisa's cute recently exalted minion! Unless Zara's been lieing to her about everything, in which case... :single tear:.

Clearly Aisa got the two of their names wrong during their first encounter and everyone has been too polite to correct her all this time. =P

That or I forgot. Fixed!

[Fansibubbles]

PM's are for resplendent wood but if you're waiting on anything from Ascending tell me in the PM.

Target Numbers are back to 7. 6 is a bit to easy, don't be afraid of a little failure it makes the story more interesting and I'll always give you something for trying.
