The Shattered Land - An Exalted Hexcrawl

Exalted 3rd Edition | Campaign

About the adventure

The news of a new continent in the uncharted seas of the West spread like wildfire across the Realm. To you, newly graduated from the halls of Secondary School, it seems the perfect opportunity—a chance to prove your worth to your House, to carve your name into the bones of Creation itself. You and your peers have been chosen to journey into the unknown, to stake your claim on this wild land and return triumphant. Or so you’ve been told. The truth, veiled beneath the polished words of your superiors, is far more complicated. Ancient ruins from the First Age lie buried in this land, whispering of forgotten power and dangerous secrets. Your Houses have chosen you, their sharpest young blades, and sent you into the crucible of this uncharted land. Here, among the jagged cliffs and labyrinthine jungles, the harsh truth of your strength will be tested. But the land itself is no quiet prize. Its dense jungles, jagged cliffs, and mist-shrouded valleys teem with dangers: fierce native warriors who will not surrender their home, creatures born of chaos and nightmare, and other Chosen who stalk the shadows, their motives as unclear as their loyalties. Even the land itself seems alive, its treacherous terrain and untold mysteries conspiring to undo the unworthy. Here, alliances will be forged in fire or shattered like brittle glass. Glory awaits those who triumph, and ruin waits for the careless. But you were not sent here to fail. You were sent to be tempered, sharpened into the weapons your Houses will wield in the storm of war that looms on the horizon. The land is wild. The stakes are high. And the only question that remains is whether you will rise to the challenge—or be broken by it.

How to prepare

As this is an online game using discord and FoundryVTT, players will need access to both as well as microphones to play. While reading the rules ahead of time will help, it is not required.

What I provide

The Books, A Flexible Mind, A Whole Bushel Full of Patience, and FUN!

Gameplay details

With the number of Tags we have, it's important to note that we will absolutely be doing a session 0 to discuss the Overall tone of the Campaign. Character Creation will also be done during Session 0. Players who join after Session 0 has been conducted can schedule a meeting with me to get caught up on the game and go through character creation and whatnot together.

How will character creation work

This is going to be a little more than a standard Dragon-Blooded start. * Essence 2 Start * 1 Free Signature Charm (Ignoring the Essence requirement, but not ability or charm prerequisites) * +5 Charms * A total of 4 starting specialties (+2 from background, if appropriate) * All players start with 55 character creation experience (replacing Bonus Points) as per Crucible of Legend. For those who don't know how Heroic XP works, it can be spent on all the same things normal XP can be spent on EXCEPT your Splat's charms.
