Finally, everything is ready for the main event: the dance.

You and Tia return to the castle's courtyard, where the musicians and the other entertainers that will follow your palanquin down Main Street are also getting ready. This time, the tense glances that are shot in your direction aren't motivated by fear or faith, but merely by the natural nervousness of performers a moment before stepping in the limelight.
Considering you never rehearsed with them, and don't even know them, you have to admit that they are right: for them, you're just some hitherto unknown woman who suddenly shows up and gets to be the star of the show they've spent the last three days preparing.

They are professionals, of course, and these personal considerations won't get in the way of their performance. As you approach the decorated palanquin, you're still greeted and cheered by them, with several exhortations of "good luck" and "break a leg" that you reciprocate.

And there, you meet Dancing Smooke, overseeing everything with one of the most smug grins you've ever seen on your life.

The goddess seems to have gotten slightly taller than last time you saw her, now being about as tall a you. You have to wonder if she tried materializing into a more imposing shape, or if all the prayer pouring into her as part of this festival is actually making her grow. She is practically glowing, and you don't know how much of that is smug satisfacion at having so many mortals at her feet right now, and how much is genuine Essence.

"Whenever you want, dear." Smoke says, nodding in your direction as she takes her place on the throne at the back of the palanquin.

>Who are we?
Maka, an exiled noble recently Exalted as a Zenith-caste Solar. She's in the western city of Tianna as a guest of queen Amata (DB), an old friend. Abyssals are targeting the city for conquest, Lintha pirates have infiltrated it with spies and agents, and half the island is controlled by paranoid Lunars. Fun times.

>Solar? Zenith? I don't know Exalted...
This quest is as newbie-friendly as possible, and I want it to work as a newbie's intro to Exalted. If you have ANY question, ask in thread. For the setting, google "1d4chan exalted".

>Archive?
http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=zenith

>System?
Dicepool-like system. When performing an action, everyone rolls 1d10 when posting. the first X rolls are considered, where X is equal to attribute + ability. Yes, this means that the more people are posting, the stronger Maka is, up to a limit of her attribute + ability.

>XP?
Attributes cost [current score x5] xp. Abilities cost [current score x3] xp, except Zenith costing [(current score x3) -1]. Charms cost 10 xp, except for Zenith-based charms (related to charisma and physical/mental fortitude) which cost 8 xp. At the end of every "session" (thread) you will be presented with a list of possible acquisitions.

You're ready.

You help Tia, who is still quite nervous, on the palanquin and the platform you're to dance on. Dancing Smoke steeples her fingers and nods. The castle's doors are opened and the parade starts flowing out and into the square, surrounded on both sides by a vast, roaring crowd.

The palanquin starts moving, its braziers and torches burning low, barely lit, but as soon as it's in the middle of the plaza, probably controlled by Dancing Smoke, they flash and burn tall and brightly in a beautiful display of pyrotechnics.

You grab Tia's hand. "Let's go."

"Y, yes." She replies, following you in your first step. You let go of her, and she continues, keeping your pace as you start your performance as well.

Flowing with the music and the beat and the din of the crowd, your mind and body lose themselves in the dance.

[Social + Zenith + IPS = 8 2 10 10 4 8 8 6 1 7 = 8 successes]

The spinning images before your eyes, the cheering population of Tianna, Dancing Smoke's smug face, the torches and braziers, spinning flags, the roofs and walls of buildings, and Tia keeping your pace with a nervous, focused expression, mix and meld together in your mind, leaving you in an ecstatic daze.

The dance plays out as you planned yesterday, your movement taking full advantage of the increased strength, agility and endurance of your Exalted status.

Your mind is still hard-wired to consider several of the things that occur to you as dangerous, impossible, or stupid. The thrill of pure terror you feel as Tia casually lifts you and throws you ten meters in the air is genuine, even though you know that she will catch you, and even if she doesn't you'd probably survive the fall with barely a scratch.

It also dawns of you that you don't feel any exhaustion anymore. You're not short on breath, you're not sweating or tired or anything. And you're not missing a step or a beat.

(cont.)
>>
Your mind can't help but focus on that fact. You've been Exalted for... what, it's been about a month now?

You did a lot of good in this month, and you're not feeling like you're wasting your talents. At the same time, you also had a lot of fun. You wonder if you've struck the right balance between fighting the good fight, and... indulging in your gifts a bit? You don't feel guilty about that. You did right, right? You can take some breaks, right?

She's complete gender-fluid and we default to female because that's what she generally identifies as.

(Yes, she, er, he is, I forgot to mention that. Using "she" out of habit)

You conclude, in your heart, that you've being doing well this far. You helped and saved people and fought bad guys. You're securing a position of power for yourself from which you'll be able to do more good, and help steer Creation in the right direction.

Besides, your body has needs to be satisfied, and no good can come to you out of denying them. Exaltation has made your sex drive shoot through the roof, sure, but has also given you the tools to satisfy it, so it's a self-solving problem in a way. Besides, you consider that a weapon in your social arsenal, and all weapons need to be sharpened and practiced with.

You're perfectly in control. It's not like you're taking Tia, in mid-dance, in front of the entire city right, right now, no matter how much you want to.
Or Dancing Smoke. Or both of them together.

Even though you could. After all, you're Exalted now, aren't you?

You're slowly adjusting to that, too. You're no longer mortal. Many of your limits are self-imposed, after all. Not just physically, but mentally, too. Or are they?

>You've become something more. You can't let mortal morality and customs define you anymore.

...You are no longer mortal, and that's an indisputable fact. It's not about being humble or being full of yourself: it's pretty obvious. It's silly yo hold yourself to their same standards.

At the same time, you recognize, you SHOULD HAVE some standards. Just in order to not lose sight of yourself.

As much fun as wallowing-

Your idle train of thought is suddenly interrupted as Dancing Smoke's palanquin is roughly halfway through its parade down from the castle to the docks, and you almost skip a beat and miss a step from the surprise. (Which, considering the force and speed and momentum of your dance, would have resulted in you accidentally throwing Tia through a house's wall across the street).

You fix your gaze onto a particular point in the middle of the cheering crowd, standing far to the back of it, in a dark corner of a deserted alley. A figure covered in a black cape is pointing a bow at you, pulling a notched arrow about to be let loose.

The bow seems a normal hunting bow, not a war bow or an artifact. The individual seems to be acting alone. If you dodge the arrow, it's going to fly across the street and almost certainly hit someone on the other side, given how packed the crowd is. These three thoughts flash across your mind as the arrow is loosed at you.

You have a split-second to react.

>Brace and just take the arrow (perhaps using soak charms)
>Maneuver Tia onto the arrow's flight path
>Try and dodge the arrow
>Try and snatch the arrow in mid-air

Combined with:
>Act fast while distracting the crowd with your dance. You don't want them to notice, the show must go on.
>You don't care how this action is seen/perceived by the crowd.
>Make a big show of it, but without interrupting your performance.

[Physical + Night = 7 2 2 10 9 = 4 successes]

Everything happens in a flash.

You exaggerate a bit one of your planned movements, which draws attention to the tassels of your bikini as they shake and lift. Simultaneously, you throw your arms out, away from everyone's attention, and take an extra step away from Tia to distance yourself.

You spin, and grab the arrow in mid-air, immediately tossing it down and sideways. It hits the metallic platform you're on, producing a ringing noise that fortunately is immediately drowned by the background noise, and rolls down.

Tia and Smoke give you a glance, but stay silent. They noticed, too.

You focus your attention again on the would-be assassin. Your eyes meet for a moment. Caught by surprise and with a terrified look on his face, he turns and runs.

...This wasn't a very well planned assassination attempt. Probably just a single person acting on the spur of the moment.

You look around, now. Someone in the crowd MUST have noticed- there's just too many people staring at you. But the vast majority seems to not have realized anything.

Your dance continues without incidents, reaching a climax as you reach the square where Main Street ends, splitting in two smaller roads, one heading to the docks and one leading to the southern city gate.

As everyone cheers, Dancing Smoke stand up from her throne and walks up to the edge of the palanquin, arms planted on her hips, wings spread, tail slowly waving left and right. Man, she's so full of herself right now.

"People of Tianna! This festival marks my holy day, from now on. Every year, a parade will be held, with fires and dances!"

She lifts a fist to the sky and the crowd's roar becomes deafening.

"This will be a reminder of the day I destroyed the Black Marsh and delivered your island from the Wyld." My, isn't she getting cocky. You can tell Tia isn't liking that remark, but she's letting it pass, instead just shooting a glance at you.

While Smoke is boasting like there's no tomorrow, you quietly lean in behind her and whisper, in her ear:

"Hey, what about us?"

She stops, almost surprised, and almost turns back to face you.

"...Of course, the Chosen of the Sun and Moon played an important part in the war against Chaos, and this is why they are here, at the first celebration in my honor."

The noise coming from the crowd in response to her words pleases you.

She straightens herself up. "...Other volcano gods of the West ask for human sacrifice. Ask for villains and criminals to be thrown to them, I have decided that I will reject this custom."

Now the noise is mostly a surprised gasp. Meanwhile, you really want to facepalm.

"I am different. Kinder. More humble. Your love, your worship, your adoration is more than enough for me. I am satisfied with regular sacrifices. Really, your warm, beautiful prayers more than make up for it."

At this point, you're not really sure if you should thank her or punch her.

Well, it's her festival. Leave her her fun.

It's well past midnight when the parade reaches its destination. The palanquin stops, right in front of the future location of Dancing Smoke's temple in Tianna. For now, it's just an empty terrain, probably where an old building or warehouse has been recently demolished or removed. The first signs of a work in progress can be seen, and you imagine it will be complete by next year's festival.

As you stay behind, Dancing Smoke makes a show of stepping down from the palanquin and symbolically laying the first brick of the building, together with a beautiful young woman in a flamboyant red-and-black dress who you imagine must be who Dancing Smoke picked as her head priestess in town.

You have to admit that at least she has good taste.

As the festival ends, the dancers and performers break their lines and start mingling with the populace, and the square quickly becomes a party. Alcohol is passed around and songs are sung together.

You step down from the palanquin and the crowd slams into you like a wave on a cliff.

After having spent the last month with everyone keeping you at arm's length (or a lot more) and handling you with gloves, bathing like this in a jubilant crowd is one of the best things you could think of.

You're not just doing all you're doing to be loved, or popular, of course. But... there's no reason not to feel happy about this. You're carried in triumph above their heads, while a cacophony of cries and screams and whistles accompany you. You feel hands slipping under your slippery, oiled skin, but the sheer pressure of people under you keeps you up.

Your bikini slips, perhaps merely sliding off you from being handled, perhaps its strings maliciously untied by someone's hands.

The realization that you don't really care dawns on you.

Now you start to understand why Exaltation has apparently been slowing eroding your normal sense of shame. Being seen naked, in full display, or touched like this, would be embarrassing if you had something to be embarrassed about. If you had an unflattering figure, or something you were ashamed of, or less than ideal. Or if, despite not having anything of the sort, you didn't feel sure of yourself enough to withstand this kind of attention.

But Exaltation has given you a perfect body. There's certainly space for improvement, but, looking at yourself in the mirror, there's nothing you feel ashamed or embarrassed about, and the confidence that springs from your powers does the rest.

You wonder how many Exalted feel like this. ...Maybe Amata, too? Considering that oddly showy clothes from her past keep popping up from the depths of her wardrobe.

Tia certainly shares your feeling. He has lost his tiger pelt skirt, either lost or discarded it himself while you weren't looking.

You'd dare say that with you two together, like this, you're satisfying the tastes and fantasies of just about everyone.

You want to take Tia. You want to take Tia, right here, right now, in front of everyone. He obviously wants to do exactly the same thing to you, and the lack of a skirt is doing absolutely nothing to conceal that desire.

However, what's holding you back is the proclamation you and Amata (well, mostly Amata) did. You are to be married soon.

Of course, you, Tia, Amata, Samiel, Irene, no one among the people you share your bed with would have any problem with that. But you're worried that the people of Tianna might not like it.

It's mostly the citywide-orgy aspect of it.

The relentless buzzing of the crowd and the feeling of the hands on your skin, all over you, is almost driving you crazy. You feel like you're about to black out and lose all control.

Rather than let the feeling drag you, you decide it's best to ride it.

It's going to be part of the performance, and everyone's going to enjoy it as much as you. You'll make sure of that.

And if this upsets Amata's plans... you'll have to apologize to her, you guess.

In bed.

...Maybe you DO have a problem with controlling your libido.

Or maybe, like you were thinking earlier, this is just the new you, and you're supposed to embrace it.

You have the people carrying you put you down, and wade through the crowd up to Tia, who is striding towards you with just as much eager confidence.

Upon meeting, you exchange a deep kiss. You whisper in his ear, barely restraining him from taking you right then and there: "Smoke too?"

He grins. It's a vicious, angry yet cheerful grin. It would scare you if you knew you were its recipient. No matter if Tia's currently male or female, or if the intent is sex or violence; his predatory eyes are always alien and terrifying. "I want to bang the smug out of her."

You can only agree with that statement. Hand in hand, followed by a crowd of aroused people growing in number with every step, you walk up to her, as she's returning from the temple grounds.

She looks at you, still smug but now a bit worried by your expressions.

"...Is something wrong?" She asks, slightly intimidated.

In response, Tia leaps ten meters across the street and slams her to the ground.

That's where it starts, and it doesn't end until way after dawn.

No, they don't. Rating 3 in an attribute is one that mortals can't attain without magic. As such, Rating 1 is 1-3, Rating 2 is 3-5, which would make Rating 3 5-7.

So, our appearance is somewhere in the 5-7 range - somewhere between absolutely perfect and low-range inhumanly transcendent.

Sex, liquor, drugs and gluttony become equally attractive, and the character will not listen to reason or postpone her debauch. She indulges in all vices at hand, regardless of expense or consequences. If she’s penniless or isolated, she’ll borrow or steal or travel to a location where she can indulge. Characters in poor health should make a Stamina check to avoid long-term negative consequences from such an episode.
>Partial Control: The character can be talked into essential duties such as pursuing enemies or leading armies. However, in every spare moment, she indulges in whatever forms of excess are available. She can avoid drinking on duty but not being exceptionally hung over. She automatically says yes whenever offered some intoxicant or other pleasure.

Maka's driving virtue isn't Anti-Temperance, it's Compassion or Conviction. So, during Maka's limit break, she probably either becomes cruel, callous, and merciless, or she becomes weak-willed, flimsy, and just wanting to mope and hide and do nothing at all for a while. Basically, when she becomes too stressed, Maka likely either becomes Bitch Queen or just wants a lazy day where nothing happens, damn it.

I thought your Limit Break just had to be a Virtue at 3+, not necessarily your highest?

In any case EF probably isn't using the literal Virtue/Limit rules anyway. Going full hedonism-mode is entirely fitting as Maka's fatal flaw. She loves sex, she loves pleasure, she loves giving other people pleasure, and she loves making people happy. Overdoing it to the point of shirking her other responsibilities makes sense as a way she would screw up in Exalted fashion.

By dawn, in fact, there isn't anyone left out in the street with any ability to stand.

Although you dedicated most of your time and attention to Tia and Smoke (and in her case, "attention" should be written in quotes. Tia has been especially rough with her), you also lost count of how many other companions you've had during the night.

Maybe you HAVE cut a bit too loose. You didn't literally keep a count, you're not that kind of person. They're people, not numbers. Although if you had to make a guess, you'd make it solidly in the three digits.

Being in charge also meant you has a lot of choice. Recently you've a bit spoiled yourself, being surrounded by Exalted and gods and fae. These people were obviously less physically gifted, but still quite enthusiastic, and you'll admit that quantity IS a quality all of its own.

Anyone who hasn't passed out has long returned home now, and you're quietly moving across the "battlefield" with Tia, careful not to step on anyone sleeping. Dancing Smoke dematerialized a bit earlier, mentioning "business she had to attend to", in response to which Tia issued a particularly colorful threat that you don't doubt will be carried out sometime in the future.

Two things still trouble you.

The first is the fact that you still don't feel tired at all. You know it's Essence-fueled endurance, but your brain is still going "You should be sleeping now. You should be dead tired. Why aren't you?". The disconnect is unsettling, and you imagine it'll take you some time to get adjusted to it. It frightens you a bit, even.

The second problem is that, despite the silence surrounding you, you still hear the buzzing noise of the crowd echoing in your head.

As you retrieve and put back on your bikini from the mass of tangled bodies, you notice someone approaching you.

Amata sighs, with that "whatever am I going to do with you" expression.

"...Did I mess up?" You ask, worried.

"...I don't know. I kind of expected something like this to happen, and you could have made a worst mess than you did, so I guess I should limit myself to being unimpressed." She says, looking rather unamused. "You two are really starting to become more like each other."

"We do?" You turn to Tia, who looks back at you. He hasn't bothered putting the tiger biking back at all, and, while he does look a bit more tired than you, he still looks like he could pull a loaded wagon across a desert at 100 kph or something similarly strenuous without many problems.

"Tia's a lot more calm, controlled and refined than the impulsive, crazed barbarian she was when you first met her." Amata points out.

Tia acts like it was a compliment. Well, it was, in a way.

"And I've been getting a lot more impulsive and crazed?" You reply.

"You said that." She smiles, pointing at you. "But anyway: Let's see what the fallout of all this will be. I hope that it will just start a tradition where Smugface McVolcano gets ritually gang-raped once a year in Seaside Square all night long, and I endorse that."

You really can't do anything but laugh at that one. "Get Samiel to participate next year." You suggest.

"We'll see about that." She cuts things short. "I think you could both use a bath, and then, well, up to you. As long as it's about work: I say your break was long enough."

Geez, she's so strict when she gets like this.

Right? We're treating the erotic/seductive options as frankly mandatory, and it's just getting... I don't know. Bland.

Early-quest Maka got embarrassed when she accidentally flashed a guard after dancing naked for the Sun. That's was cute, and fun, and a little lewd.

Current-quest Maka fucked literally hundreds of people in the middle of a city street and walked it off - if anything - bored, like it's no big deal.

To me, that's a sign we need to cut back, not dial it up. Like, for real.

Amata accompanies you back to the castle as the town slowly wakes and start picking up the shattered pieces of your nightly rampage.

Looking back on it, yes, you wonder if you really have a problem. You never really meant to go THAT overboard. A bit, sure, but...

You... should probably start being more careful now. Kick back a notch. At least, you hope you can. You hope it's not a problem.

Damnit, now all this made you conscious.

Not feeling all too well (mentally, not physically), and troubled by these thoughts, you take a rather long bath and a rather large dose of maiden tea.

"...What's wrong?" Tia, now back in her usual dress and shape, asks you.

She probably noticed your troubled expression. You... you're not sure if this is something you can talk to with her, not because she could take it badly, but because... well, you don't really trust her to give you solid advice concerning your sex life. Considering the circumstances.

Besides, it could worry her as well.

Well, most of the issues were "this isn't what the voters wanted", which is actually exactly what should be happening with the Great Curse. That would mean that EF isn't not listening to us, it's just Solar Badness kicking in (especially since even Maka is concerned about it).

Some confirmation would probably help mollify the angrier parties, though.

That's not how that works. The middle ground is where both parties get less of what they want. In this case, the no-sex crowd would get less chastity, but at least we're not getting gangbanged, and the orgy crowd would be getting less-than-total-abandon.

That you can't see the obvious middle ground is concerning, to put it lightly.

You explain your problem to Tia.

You explain to her that you lost control. That you didn't want to go that far, that you're worried that you might lose control.
the more you talk about it, the more you're worried. Exaltation changed you a lot. Who's to say that the Immaculate Order isn't at least a bit right about the Anathema? After what just happened?

No one was hurt, but what if next time you lose control someone is? What if it happens in a battle, instead of at a festival?

You're not sure how much sense your rant is making. You just talk and talk and talk. Tia, staying silent, listens to everything, sometimes just prodding you along to let you know that she's still following you and to make you feel like you're not having a monologue. Which you are, but it does help.

"I never worried myself about these problem." Tia admits. "Because I'm dumb, probably."

"You're not dumb, Tia."

"I don't think things through. I act on impulse. I've been relying on my powers to dodge consequences for myself, and did not care about others along my way." She continues. "...You can't do that, Maka. Because you can't just think about yourself. You're a boss. A leader."

"...What should I do, then?" You ask her.

"I think you've already decided what you should do." She replies.

You take a deep breath.

She's right, of course. Maybe this experience was really just what you needed.

You wouldn't have learned about... well, this problem, otherwise, and it's best to make this kind of mistakes in a controlled environment, right?

No one got hurt, not much was ruined (probably), and the damage was (hopefully) contained.

As far as learning from mistakes goes, you've hit the jackpot here. Just helps to remind you that no matter how powerful you are, you can never be immune from making the wrong choices.

The Great Curse is a thing that means Solars have a tendency to go completely overboard with their virtues/vices. Terrestrials are also subject to it, to a lesser degree (they're more prone to extremes of emotion rather than excessive displays of heroic virtues or flaws).

Sidereals' involves making terrible fucking decisions or being blind to the flaws in their plans, I don't really remember.

Abyssals and Infernals don't have a Great Curse, theirs is more "obey your evil masters or suffer".

"You're right." You reply.

She pats your head.
It's such a childish gesture, especially when directed towards a woman almost a head taller than she is, that it ends up being way more endearing than it should ever be. (even if you're on the receiving end.)

"...what do you think about it, though? I didn't even ask."

"Well." She gently hugs you. "You're a queen, and, once you marry Amata too, you'll be a double queen."

That's not how things work, but you decide to not interrupt her.

"But, most importantly, you're a Chosen of the Sun and a Zenith. You should have standards."

You nod.

"And if you're worried that you might have lapses in judgement, then I'll keep you in line."

That... sounded juuust a bit ominous and threatening, but you know she said it in good faith and with every intention of helping you.

There's no way to tell which side is more active/aggressive, though. You could have two people supporting one side, and four supporting the other, but if each of those two people makes three times as many votes as any of the four, they'll win.

Samefagging inherently ruins a vote. The proportions do not, in any way, necessarily remain true to who actually supports what.

"...Do I really need someone keeping me in line? I'm a grownup." You playfully protest. "But... thank you, Tia."

"You do." She replies. "Even if you might not admit it."

After yesterday night, you feel content just spending half a hour together, lying in a couch, in each other's arms.

You doze off for a bit, and when you blink back awake, someone's put a blanket over you two.

Oddly enough, that buzzing noise in your head didn't go away, though it's less annoying now. You wonder what that could be.

You prepare for your trip back to your demesne. Mikahil and this Valeriena character should be back on Tianna in about five days, and your crews and boats are in Admiral Rajan's care, so you're not in a rush.

Your fastest vehicle, in this situation, is still Tia. Flying with her vulture form would be fastest, but riding on her horse form is more comfortable for both of you, and easier if you want to carry other people with you.

Or, you could borrow a normal horse, or a small boat, and go there either alone or with others.

You gather up Regis and Millian (and Millian's luggage, of course), and decide that the idea of tying a small cart to Tia isn't that far-fetched.

Fortunately, she doesn't seem to mind it. Millian, who hasn't seen Tia's shapeshifting before, seems particularly curious, though she's hiding it pretty well.

Before leaving, you change back to your good old tabard. The bikini's strings were starting to get annoying.

You're a bit worried that the cart might not have been designed for the kind of speeds that Tia can reach, but you hope it won't be too rocky and bumpy a ride.

As you're about to leave, though, a soldier calls out to you. Evidently unsure as to what honorific to use, he addresses you as "Milady Maka! Please wait a second!"

You hold, or rather Tia holds, since it's not like you need to give you commands or anything. "...What is it?"

"...There are several individuals who wish to have an audience with you, actually. We weren't aware that you were about to leave."

The news surprises you a bit. Actually, it worries you as well. All the confidence you had yesterday night is gone, and now you're a bit worried of what fallout might be heading your way.
Still maybe you're overthinking and there's no relation.

"Tell me what you know about them. I'll decide if and who to meet right now if it's worth my time, otherwise I must go." You explain the guard. Well, you ARE kind of busy.

"...From Tianna?" You wonder.

"No, a traveler. She said that after witnessing your dance, she was awestruck and wishes to have an audience with you."

You nod, interested. "What about the others?"

"One is a representative of the Denzik Merchants, wishing to discuss about trading and mining rights for your lands. One a wandering martial artist of some renown. one the leader of a small mercenary company. One is a priestess of the Unconquered Sun and the leader of the small congregation of that faith here in Tianna, which has, uh, jumped in membership since your arrival."

Basically all of these people are important. One's an Exalt, one's a political opportunity (though I'd suggest deflecting the merchant to Amata, who'd know how to handle this better), one's a guy we can punch without trying to kill them for once, one comes with a further addition to our personal army, and one is a sun priestess (and we could probably use a discussion with someone who's actually professionally trained at being a sun priestess rather than just winging it on the basis that we're the right caste of Exalt).

Incredible how EF can completely change my priorities by throwing plot hooks our way. I'm impressed by this storytelling.

Quite the change from some other quests where the QM is willing to just allow the players plans to go through.

It seems like it would be most useful in social situations where we would be less likely to use essence normally
But I could think of a few times we could have used them when we were at the dinner party last thread

Rolled 10

>>31516766
>we could have used them
But we wouldn't, that's the point. People are paranoid about flaring our anima banner, about running out of essence, and so forth. Aside from dice-adder social charms, we're almost never willing to actually spend essence on them.

Are they cool as fuck? Yes. Will we ever use them enough for them to be worth the expenditure - or even use them at all? In all likelihood, no.

I want to get something we'll - collectively - actually choose to use.
>>
Rolled 4

>>31516873
I hate that you're probably right
/tg/ will want to save it's essence just in case and end the day with a full tank and they'll use that time in the wyld to back themselves up
I'll still vote for them even if they probably won't win though
>>
Rolled 1

>>31517027
>end the day with a full tank
That always pisses me off so much. We should NEVER be above 4 essence, because when we're at max, that means we're not regenerating essence, which means we're fucking squandering it.

But yeah, people are absolutely fucking terrified of actually spending essence - even in fights where we REALLY SHOULD HAVE.
>>
Rolled 8

>>31517048
Maybe /tg/ will be more encouraged to spend essence when we get that cult rating from sun priestess
>>
What is all this complaining? Haven't we blown essence in every combat, every social situation so far? There's been caution in regards to anima flares in political situations, but we've blown essence at nearly every oppurtunity
>>
Rolled 3

>>31517136
>Haven't we blown essence in every combat, every social situation so far?
No. In half our combats, we've avoided spending any essence until we're already far too wounded when we should have activated our defenses immediately, and in social situations we're almost always unwilling to spend more than a single point. For example, we almost never use BOTH Talking to the Heart and Majestic Radiant Presence, just one or the other. That one time we over-extended ourselves in the Wyld has made people EXTREMELY resistant to spending essence ever since.
>>
>>31517048
>We should NEVER be above 4 essence, because when we're at max, that means we're not regenerating essence, which means we're fucking squandering it.
We don't regenerate essence unless we're resting.

We don't rest often.

This may be fixed once we get Hearthstones/a Cult
>>
Rolled 5

>>31517188
>We don't regenerate essence unless we're resting.
No, we regenerate it FASTER when we're resting. We regenerate it throughout the day even when we're active.

>We don't rest often.
Now that we have an anti-tired charm, our threshold for what counts as rest is probably much lower.

>This may be fixed once we get Hearthstones/a Cult
Yeah, that'll dial up our essence recovery even more.
>>
Rolled 5

>>31517173
>For example, we almost never use BOTH Talking to the Heart and Majestic Radiant Presence
This is a little hard to do if were being discreet but if we activate MRP before we talk to the person at the start of the scene we can use TttH without worrying about anima flares happening, we just have to start preemptively using MRP in social situations

You sigh and crack a smile at your two servants (and your horse). "Well... In hindsight, I should've expected this sort of thing. Sorry if I had you prepare your stuff and everything, but looks like I'll be staying in Tianna for today. These people sound important, and I don't want to blow them off."

"It's okay." Millian nods. "I understand. Should we prepare your room for guests?"

"Uhm." You think about it for a moment. "Meeting them in a bedroom is a bit... suggestive?"

"Isn't that your usual modus operandi?" Regis asks, with the face of someone who just learned that difficult word and was waiting for a chance to use it.

You turn to Tia, who transforms back into human shape (spooking the hell out of the guard in the process) and shrugs. Up to you, apparently.

>Prepare my bedroom.

Let's not immediately jump to boning. But if it leads to that, then whatever.

"Millian, can't you find an office or some sort of business-y room I can meet them in? Just to look more, you know, official. Or see if we can use the dinner room for a bit."

"I'll look into it." She says, dismounting from the cart.

"Regis, please help her out."

"O- okay."

"Tia. I know these kind of things are boring for you." You flash a smile at her.

She scratches her nose. "...A bit, yes."

"Do you want to stay? Or would you prefer to go and spend some time with your tribe?"

"...The tribe can wait. I'll be with you in case you need me or something happens." She says, sounding very sure of that.

"Even if-"

"I won't get bored."

You nod. "...Thank you, Tia."
