Infernal Conundrum: [Exalted/Worm] - Part 2: Hell is Other Exalts

Reader mode
[X] Just imagine becoming the way you used to be as a very young child, before you understood the meaning of any word, before opinions took over your mind. The real you is loving, joyful, and free. The real you is just like a flower, just like the wind, just like the ocean, just like the sun.

People, before you bandwagon remember there are a lot of Yozi and we are only limited by QM approval of a charm selection (fanon or not).

Here is a list, and try to find something that doesn't vomit Taylor's problems all over the universe or conflicts with SWLIHN like Kimbery (you're trying to mix the primordials of hierarchy/order and freedom/chaos/borderline_personality). For the same reason TED is a terrible choice, etc.

I want:
[X] Szoreny, the Silver Forest

I advocated this before the vote was open, and if the Charmset is allowed, it's an almost perfect fit. Genuinely benevolent, wanting the best for everyone as a default before they annoy him, but his idea if improvement is "make you more like me", while Taylor wants to help everyone, but has great difficulty accepting alternate points of view and compromises. He copies the equipment and useful traits of his enemies, while Taylor copies everything that is both useful and not conflicting with her current point of view. His blood is poison, but it is also the means of transmission for his aid, and it's impossible to tell whether a particular dose is poison or medicine without drinking it or using magic. From the outside, it's impossible to tell whether Skitter is trying to help or to rot away and gain control of an area until she's done. The ability to clone himself is more power related than personality, with the swarm clones, but it's still a connection.

Edit: started typing when there were no posts after the vote, interesting timing with the above.

You don't have to worry about all the mental side effects with Kimbery until you start taking Intolerable Burning Truths. Am I right? Of course if we go down this road we can't get Kimbery's shintai or anything like that, but something to consider.
 
As a side note: fair warning, but Taylor's parahuman power is somewhat complicated by her Exaltation. It certainly doesn't function as per Worm canon.
 
Hmm...

I'd vote, but I'd probably either just end up hopping on the most well-thought-out bandwagon or end up asking for advice, receiving it, and trying to read it until my head spun. :V


So, Kimbery is the yandere ocean lady. Adorjan is... the wind of murder-buddhism? And I don't remember who cece is at all. V:

Szoreny sounds neat though.
 
Well, distilled to powers:
-Kimbery - Acid powers, water powers, poison powers, making monster powers.
-Adorjan - Go fast powers, go faster powers, yandere love powers, melee only murder powers
-Cecelyne - Sand powers, hostile environment survival powers, cult-raising, wish granting powers.
-Ebon Dragon - Darkness powers, deception powers, betrayal powers, ranged only murder powers.
-Malfeas - Fire powers, radiation powers, durability powers, LISTEN TO ME powers and SO FUCKING ANGRY powers.


[X]To see a world in a grain of sand and heaven in a wild flower. Hold infinity in the palms of your hand and eternity in an hour.

Has some interesting synergy with SWLIHN's society shaping powers. Assuming those are still present. It's the one for someone who wants to build and shape a society.

excuse me, we did not pick [X]Simurgh :V

Honestly, I have no good idea why Taylor would fit with anyone in particular, so.... eh. I'll figure it out eventually. EVENTUALLY.
 
[x] I love the sea's sounds and the way it reflects the sky. The colours that shimmer across its surface are unbelievable.

I just like wish-granting. Szoreny is a close second for me.

Why are all worm crossovers and quests abysal or infernal?

Not counting the "you magic robot nao" one. That one is acceptable. Autochton is a bro.

I have yet to see any quests or stories with a Scourge or Adorjan-favoring infernal, and I'd really love to see the directions that Taylor would go if she was one.

Well, for the preset options:
-Cecelyn is the Rule of Law tainted by the Rules of Nature. She believes laws and order should be enforced and followed, but she also believes that the strong set whatever rules they like. This is what led to Warlord of Brockton Bay in canon, in part. Through the failures of the system, she no longer believes in it, but still desires a sysstem.

-Kimbery is that of poisonous attachments, grudges and relationships. Emma was one, Lisa, in canon, is another, as were the dysfunctional mess of how she dealt with everything. It also means the option to spawn monsters for whatever happened to Queen Administrator here. She fixates upon people, things and objectives, and sees them through, come hell or high water.

-Adorjan is instead a step back into youth. Love hurts, so you love fast, you love hard, and then when you no longer need it you let it go, and sever old relations with the same ease you form new ones. Laugh, because everything hurts, and it is good. Let nothing bind you, cut yourself free, murder the now-stranger and feast upon their death.

Though given SV being SV we're naturally pretty Kimbery/Cecelyn/SWLIHN.
