Mother of Demons (Exalted vs A Song of Ice and Fire)

Introduction/Character Creation - Part 2
Is this what Viserys felt? You wonder as you rise on your feet, ignoring Jorah's surprise. Is that why this feels... familiar?

The green fire doesn't speak anymore; it doesn't have to, as you feel the call with every beat of your heart. The Iron Throne awaits for you - you've always known, but you can feel it now. This is your birthright, not merely to have a home, but to take this world that has bend and thrown you apart and make it bend, make it fall before your knees in supplication.

You need no dragons. You already are one.

You barely notice yourself approaching the flames, can only hear Jorah's shouts as if he were an ocean away, as your clothes catch fire. The fire never touches your skin. It flows around it, becoming a hard shell, like a butterfly's chrysalis.

Or, perhaps, a dragon's egg.

As you form a fetal position, putting your arms around your knees, the shell completes, encasing you in a warm darkness. You feel yourself slipping away, even as you hear cold laughter.

FINALLY


WE CAN BEGIN


YOU WILL BURN THIS WORLD


AND FROM THE ASHES


BIRTH IT ANEW


But how will you be reborn?

[] Draconic Khaleesi

You learned the way of the Dothraki and have merged it with the ideals of House Targaryen. Knowledge and charm are pretty things, but they mean little in the end. A dragon plants no trees.


[] Lovely Demoness
The beauty of the Targaryens were said to have been worthy to wage war for. The darkest layers of the world can ensure this is so. A smile in the right place can redeem the darkest heart, or make the brightest soul commit the wickedest of deeds.


[] Valyrian Sorceress
Once, the Valyrians were the greatest sorcerers in the world. Though that magic led to their downfall, it does not have to happen again. You will discover all the secrets of this world, but beware, for a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing...


[] Plan God-Empress
The God-Empress is Powerful as she is Charismatic. As kind as she is cruel. As empathetic as she is manipulative. She prefers words but has no quams using force if necessary, be they personal or otherwise.



[] Something different, something more (Crossover book can be found here. Page 202 is where you get the steps for making an Infernal. The sheet I am using so I do not have to fiddle around with making dots in the forum is here)

We are dealing with large armies, and large vast regions of territory. Being able to inspire people to follow us is needed.

The only really important charm to get apart from VEE, is endless torment emanation. We can parly with a enemy party then hit them with +2 difficulty before a battle.

So here is my Proposal. The God-Empress is Primarily Social, if the Max CHA and MANI is anything to go by. We also max out DEX and Melee so we can handle ourselves in a fight.

Then we also MAX out some Social stats so we generally roll 10 dice and 12 if stunting. We take Leadership to lead armies and Seneschal, which is Bureaucracy. We take politics and Occult so we can dip into them.

Our only downside is Appearance 1 but we can reasonably get it to 2 via 4xp and 3 by 8xp. We also never roll Appearance so it is basically a dead stat.

In all other stats, we managed to get the basic to raise armies and to manage it. I called it the God-Empress for that reason, it will help us raise armies and conquer Nations. Even better? It helps us manage it, so less headaches there.

It's explicitly directed at bureaucracy and civilian projects - a battle doesn't really qualify. Siege preparations might but that's about as close as one might get.

Sorcery is always the best part of Exalted, and this is an excellent way to draw on the mysticism in Dany's background.

Sorcery is ExWod is....not good. Charms get you MUCH better options. Even otherwise, that plan has only 4 dots in it, so you are not going to be doing much with it.
 
Votes tied. Can I interest any one to vote Plan God-Empress?

It is a balanced plan and you can speck into Sorcery, rule people, raise armies and not suck in combat.

[X] Plan God-Empress

I would request that you add one App dot - through freebie points - as a condition of my voting for this.
That would be the next vote. Though keep in mind that it costs 5 Bonus points to add it, that means we will have to give up charms or more.

Also it costs only 4xp to get App 2. So it will come with costs. So if you are ok with that, I will propose the App 2 next turn.
 
I highly question taking melee 5, and dex 5 in God-Empress. Westros is not a place where a leader takes the battlefield.

Looking at the altered charms Hollow Mind Possession, now functions to animate humanoid shaped stuff. From scarecrows to statues. Anybody know if their are rules for that stuff. But we will need to get a bunch of artists to turn out mass amounts of stone statues to bring to life. Combo with a few years of VEE to get perfectly loyal minions that can take any roll.
