If we let Aika into the group she can learn Lore charms while we're busy with other things and cover our hacking needs for us. Just sayin'.megrisvernin said:[X] Relax and enjoy tranquility
It's fun to realize we've added another blonde to our horde. Glad to see we're continuing our theme.
So question. Now that we have a way of empowering our allies...do we want to add Aika to our ranks?
She's at least a little at risk given her association with us and we know of at least one organization investigating us now.
...so. We just became capable of ridding devils and fallen angels of their weakness to holy weapons.
Smuthunter said:Oh Mittelt. Get your wings back and immediately see if you can lose them again? I'm not sure whether to laugh or shake my head.

We are now officially the most eligible bachelor in the Underworld. Azazel is probably going to ask if he can have our babies. Rias probably won't wait long enough to ask. There is nothing that Raiser can possibly offer the Gremory family that would be more valuable and more earthshakingly game-changing than this.
[X] Tell Rias about this! (But wait until she's sitting down and has a cup of tea ready!)

Alexander has flat out said we need to teach then TMA, then use the charms used to let Dragon Blooded learn CMA before they can learn CMA, as for Ruby learning melee charms, I figure anything like that she will learn on her own, like we would, because we teach her martial arts, not melee, which we suck horribly at currenly
Nah, Azazel won't ask that. He'll just throw every single attractive female Fallen Angel at Issei.Smuthunter said:...so. We just became capable of ridding devils and fallen angels of their weakness to holy weapons.

Solar Hero Style isn't just a CMA, it also counts as the native Solar martial arts charms. Like, for everyone who isn't a Solar, learning SHS is learning "how to punch people like a Solar" but for Solars it's just "how to punch people." They can't learn other CMAs perhaps but the rules as written permit Yang to learn Solar kung-fu.EternitynChaos said:Smut...

For the other Exalted, this Charm tree is a Celestial Martial
Arts style that emulates and imitates the power of the heroes of
the dawn. Celestial Exalted and Immaculate-trained Dragon-
Blooded can learn these Charms, but they cannot develop or
learn additional Charms for this tree.
Because they're half-castes, not dragon-bloods. The rules they work with are different. In fact I'm looking at them right now, and the only restrictions on Solar half-castes are that they have to meet the ability and essence prerequisites (just like everyone else) and they can't learn perfect defenses or scene-long defense-boosters.EternitynChaos said:...if the Dragon Blooded exalts need charms to make them able to use CMA what makes you think Half-Castes don't?
Scroll of Heroes, page 113. Solar Hero Style (or Fist of the Daystar, whatever) are natural Solar charms, therefore half-castes can learn them like any other Solar charm.Half-Caste: The children of the Chosen can learn nearly any of the Charms of their parents as long as they meet the minimums for each Charm. There are a few exceptions. Half-Castes cannot learn perfect defenses or Charms that grant a persistent scene-long defense. Sidereal Half-Castes can learn any Sidereal Charms other than Sidereal martial arts, but many Charms with the Maiden keyword are academic exercises and cannot be used except in the rarest of circumstances. Lunars Half-Castes do not possess their Exalted sire's ability to shapechange naturally, but they can learn the Deadly Beastman Transformation and Finding the Spirit's Shape. They are limited to no more than two alternative forms when selecting these Charms. No Half-Caste can learn Solar Circle Sorcery or Void Circle Necromancy. As with all God-Blooded, Storytellers should feel free to limit any Charms they feel are inappropriate for their games.
God-Blooded can learn supernatural martial
arts of various styles, but they can only learn Terrestrial
styles as skilled mortals can.
Alexander said:For that I made up some rules:
-In this quest Half-Caste can reach up only to Essence 3. Becoming Gods is the only way to surpass the limit.
-They don't learn native Charms, but thematic Spirit Charms, which you players can created: but they must be weaker than proper Solar Charms.
-Excellencies are the only exception to the above rule: they can have the same effects as their Solar parent Charms.
-All Charms are Unfavored and costs 10 Xp.
Eiko is a good example: after you finish the Familiar Contract (tomorrow In-Story) she will gain the Half-Caste status (together with Familiar benefits). In her case, raising Essence above 3 happens after living for a certain number of years.
Fixed for you.BFldyq said:...Just thought of something. How big a boost will this and being able to boost devil's fertility cause Rias's status to rise?
Alright, I suppose that's a better source than what Eternity was trying to shove at me. That rules out Aika being the hacker guru for us. Or rather, she could but she probably can't learn a perfect stealth charm that would prevent any possible reprisals on us. :'(The Slumbering Crocodile said:No, Half-Castes can't learn Solar Charms, other than Excellencies:
Over on the official forum, one of the devs posted in a thread about what charms look like in action, using other media as inspiration. He posted this for Solar Brawl, which is just Fist of the Daystar by another name.iamnuff said:question, what exactly is fist of the daystar, thematically.
As I understand it, it's a martial art made for super-humans to fight large groups of weaker opponents, as much as it is for them to face their equals.
I'm picturing across between Hercules from his live-action tv show (picking up dudes in one hand and throwing them at other dudes) and Neo in the burly brawl.
A bunch of dudes all Wire-fu-ing at one guy, who's launching them flying with each punch and kick.
it's like "superman VS a bunch of normal dudes" except the normal dudes are also superhuman (just less so than the Solar)
Is this it, or am I completely off base?

PFFTHAHAHAHAHA! Oh god. Imagine the next time Mittelt meets any Fallen Angel.
"Issei-sama fucked the Darkness out of me."
"...What?"
