Exalted: Essence — An Excess of Exigents

About the adventure

This one-shot game introduces players to Exalted: Essence, a streamlined version of Exalted: 3rd Edition. It casts players as a Circle of Exigents — the unique champions of lesser gods, each created in response to an urgent need by desperate deities willing to risk their own destruction. Character sheets will be provided, and the game is intended for both experienced Exalted players and newcomers to the game and setting.
