Grand Theft Yeddim[exalted]

If the TED-Adorjan idea wins, then given that we're playing Grand Theft Yeddim, I propose we go for a Moist von Lipwig characterisation. Because he is totally a Fiend, and would totally pull all kinds of hilarious bullshit involving hijinks, social trickery, and awesome theft.

Hmm. Name...

Arid El-Amin? The first being a riff off "Moist", and the second being an Arabic name [1]​ meaning "truthful", which my somewhat warped sense of humour happens to find all kinds of amusing for a Fiend. Also it sounds more or less real-name-like.

[1] Southgame? Gem? Grand Theft Tyrant Lizard?​
 
I was hoping for a Lupin III char. Is that viable or is he more of a night caste?
 
A quick talking fast con artist/thief. Yup the ED/Adorjan combo works for it. But what I mean is the mental state more Night caste and therefore less murderhobo or will it be ok?

The mental state is whatever you want it to be. Not all Adorjan-favouring people are muderhobos. If we want to play a Lupin/Moist-esque Adorjan-favouring Fiend, we're perfectly able to.
 
Chargen, part II
I am extending voting on names through the end of chargen.

Caste: Fiend
Favored: Adorjan
Urge: Cecelynian (Urge to command)

As a Fiend, you automatically favor Bureaucracy, Linguistics, Ride, Sail, and Socialize. This means you ignore training times and may have an easier time Stunting.
Pick five additional skills to favor from the following list: Archery, Athletics, Awareness, Crafts, Dodge, Resistance, Endurance, Investigation, Larceny, Lore, Martial Arts, Medicine, Melee, Occult, Performance, Presence, Stealth, Survival, Thrown, War

[ ] Skill
[ ] Skill
[ ] Skill
[ ] Skill
[ ] Skill

You see your reflection in a nearby puddle. What gender are you?
[ ] Dude
[ ] Chick
[ ] Yes
[ ] No
What else do you see?
[ ]You don't look too bright, but you don't need to be smart to hit things (Physical, Social Mental)
[ ] You are a paragon of beauty. Just make sure to avoid opening your mouth. (Social, Physical, Mental)
[ ] You see a lean well-muscled form. Pity about those vitirol burns. (Physical, Mental, Social)
[ ] You are extremely plain, all the better to be overlooked while constructing your sinister plans. (Mental, Physical, Social)
[ ] Your eyes look like they could cut glass. They might need to since you look like you can hardly lift a sword. (Mental, Social, Physical)
[ ] You look like a leader of demons men. Your minions can do all the heavy lifting. (Social, Mental, Physical)

You make your way back to your home in the Demon City. How do you do this?
[ ]In your Hellstrider, of course!
[ ] On your faithful steed, a fine specimen that may accompany you anywhere.
[ ] Escorted by your minions, naturally.
[ ] Over the rooftops and across the walls, reveling in the speed.
[ ] TAXI!
-[ ]This is a jecking!

Our currently nameless Infernal is not going to be starting out fresh out of RAW chargen with no XP.

We wanted to be a social manipulator and corrupter, so Presence and leadership. Archery and Dodge for combat.

Because I like throwing as a combat skill, and we are a happy medium between damage, range and stealth with it. Archery is not working with some of the Murder-zoom charms if I remember it right but thrown should work it.

I thought you just need to be next to your target, so you can shot them with a bow at close range just as well as you can hit them with a sword, but you can't run away from them and kite them to death.

Why not MA? Wood Dragon heals a lot better than any charm we have. Unless we get it from the fiend anima.

Okay, let's see. If we're still going for Lupin and we're playing a Fiend, Archery is good - Adorjan gives us mobility, and TED is totally okay with shooting people in the back from half a mile away. Thrown sucks in comparison; it's got a fraction of the range and nowhere near as many Charms. Also, Time-Strung Bows are a thing, Archery-wise. Stealth and Larceny are obvious musts, Presence allows us to bluff things up, and Performance means we can totally play to the crowd like a boss.

Now, the "what do you look like" options seem to be Attributes. I think our best bet if we're playing a socialite is to go for plain looks so we don't stand out and maximum social-fu. So...

[ ] You are extremely plain, all the better to be overlooked while constucting your sinister plans. (Vote changed below.)

And of course...

[X] Escorted by your minions, naturally.

... minions are always a must-have.
