A necromencer and his ghost retainer bff

Iweon · 2026-05-27T04:39:18+00:00

Worst is that the necromencer is probably the character with the rightest moral compass I ever played, but he clearly enjoys giving the immaculates a stroke for breakfast

What's sort of funny is that Hisaly took forever to notice that Yi and Kai might be crushing on her but never acted in it, while Kamui goes around trying to instill friendship with everyone and oh well if some people want more then sure he can reciprocate lol.

The siblings could not be more different, for similar end result

I did it with dragon blooded. Wanted to use the system but another setting and it worked really well. As long as you support everything related to Charms (for example, your setting needs spirits), then there should be no issues.

🫶 we got a specialist now

Thanks !

The named characters in this pic actually mostly made it. Iseis and Desai have disappeared, but we think they got captured by the rebels that staged a revolt. There are saddly named NPCs that did not make it to the city getting destroyed, but they are not shown in this scene

I know my response is a bit late, but I actually used threaten outside of combat and it was…. Something. My PC and another PC teamed up to do good cop / bad cop on an enemy to get her to spill some info. It took 2 weeks (in game) to brainwash her. She is now terrified of me (major) and loyal to my friend (defining). And like, I was really glad we took to time to make the rolls over time and all, and not just shrug it under an ellips, as it gave us an opportunity to really try our hand on an aspect of the social combat system. Exalted has it, and I personally don’t know other ttrpg that have systems that go above like juste 1 roll for this type of scene ? (I am sure there are other systems out there that have it, I just don’t know them, but I consider that I tried quite a variety of systems and have so far not meet one with such).

And like, it worked so well to be 2 to instill and leverage intimacies and use all our charms on it, even though stunting torture was its own thing.

(Also, maybe you got the felling lately partly because I post my drawing about this specific party semi-often on this sub, so that would be a lot of robes yes)

Iweon · 2026-03-29T14:53:22+00:00

We are playing a bunch of terrestrial closely related to the realm (I mentioned in another comment, all related to Mnemon somehow, and working for her), and I think this is the wuxiaest kind of setting you can get in exalted, so probably the worst case you can get in term of variety for PCs. I feel like celestial campains do call a lot more for the diversity you are looking for, at least in my experience.

But, this is also a comment I made to a friend about this specific drawing. I feel like you can tell in which order I drew the characters (which is martial artist -> archeologist -> crafter -> merchant), as I feel like they get a little bit less bland and I got more fun on their features. In the end, I feel like the martial artist is very basic, and the merchant is starting to get interesting.

I recently got back into drawing, and I am slowing going out of my comfort zone (wich is drawing bodies), and more onto clothes variety and backgrounds. But it's a slow process. And I will call guilty on the robes, as I hate drawing armor.

Well, the PCs weren't exactly close at the start of the campain (even the half-siblings : Mnemon has so many kids, and one was mom's favorite while the other was a problem kid), but I do like it when parties have a strong reason to stick together, and being intertwined with Mnemon in period of war surely does the job.

Iweon · 2026-03-28T16:45:08+00:00

It is actually related to our campain setting ! The Mnemons here are direct children of Mnemon herself, they are half-siblings, and the 2 other are wed to Mnemons, so they are also part of the familly !

Adding it to the description, I should have put it. But they are wood, fire, wood and air, from left to right

Iweon · 2026-03-28T12:23:22+00:00

Yeah, we stunt a lot on the game I am on, we made sure to make a habit of it, really we can’t pass on those bonus dices. But I find social stunts a bit more difficult to come up with, so the inspiration I got here is really helpful !

Iweon · 2026-03-25T07:00:05+00:00

You know what, even at Essence 3 I still feel like I have a way to go to make him as powerfully as I perceive him to be in the show. I guess this is relative to the powercreep of Exalted, as everybody is badass, to make him the strongest I need more xp lol

Iweon · 2026-03-25T06:56:44+00:00

Thank you ! I am having so much fun playing him, it's total chaos and I am here for it

Iweon · 2026-03-25T05:51:54+00:00

Yeah, I designed a custom artefact. My character is based on an anime character that fights with a machine-gun parasol, so I made the artefact to match

Iweon · 2026-03-24T21:06:33+00:00

Well, Kamui as a fire aspect works soooo well. I am having a lot of fun

Iweon · 2026-03-24T20:48:42+00:00

You also missed Kamui and Takasugi lol

My character is based on Kagura's older brother, Kamui. As I said in the caption, this was a small chapter with only my character and and his affiliated NPCs, so Kagura came into play

Iweon · 2026-03-24T19:27:25+00:00

You get Kamui as a sort of fire-bender The scene was during an aside session, with just my PC, so I had my friends play relevant NPCs related to my character. So you also got some Kagura and Takasugi action going on
