About me

GM since 1980, I run games you haven't heard of. Indie and non-Hasbro games are my gig! I wrote 'How Humakt Learned to Grieve' for the Jonstown Compendium. I run Star Wars, RuneQuest and other non-Hasbro games. I use safety tools such as lines and veils, X-card, brief and debrief, bleed management tools and others. My table is an explicitly safe BIPOC/ND/Queer/Trans/LGBTIA+ space as I am queer and nuerodivergent myself.

Character creation

Creating your character

Characters should be created as Essence 1 Exalts as per Exalted Essence Core. Rules from the Exalted Essence Core and the Pillars of Creation supplement are allowed, as are any Exalts from the Exalted Essence Core. Please note that this campaign is for Exalted Essence, not Exalted 3rd Edition.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

You should have: -Stable internet -A Discord handle -A Zoom account (free) - Access to the Exalted Essence core rules Character creation will occur during session zero, and during session one, an introductory session will be run detailing the player character's Exaltations. Use of Cameras during ths game will be encouraged, but not mandatory.

What Chris brings to the table

I do silly voices. Game play will take place on Zoom, and we will use a DIscord dice roller. Generally, I play Exalted Essence loose, but will try to keep to Spirit of the Rules (SOR). In session Zero we will discuss, lines, veils and safety tools. This is a LGBTIA+/Bipoc safe space. Please plan according. Exalted is a queer friendly setting, be prepared for this.

Homebrew rules

None as of this time, but I leave open the development of house rules

Safety

How Chris creates a safe table

We will make use of X-Card, lines and veils, stars and glimmers, and use other tools. Please note that this is a LBGTQIA+ and BIPOC safe game. If you are a fascist or have an issue with queer folks, minorities or women, this isn't the game for you. Please note the content warnings below, but we will discuss which are off limits when we go over lines and veils and chronicle tenets. My goal is to make this game as fun and safe as possible, while still maintaining it's adult, challenging edges. This is a 18+ game. Lines and veils will be discussed in Session Zero.
