Exalted/oWoD X-over

#1
So, I got it in my head to cross-over oWoD and Exalted. Here are my general rules for the fanfic, so that the two cosmologies make sense and has the characters actually doing something, being at the centre of world-shaking events like they should be in Exalted. I want to preserve the general 'Exalted' ambience.



1. The Exalted are Immune to Paradox

This is a basic rule, because it allows the Exalted to do cool, physics-defying things without having Paradox busting them.

2. There are lots of impostors

This is how I reconcile the cosmologies. oWoD Malfeas isn't Exalted Malfeas, the Deathlords and Neverborn are just impostors of the real deal, etc. Autocthonia may be Autocthon, however. It depends on my planning.

Any things I'm missing, things I should be wary of?

And here's a sample:

The world is a cesspool of despair.

But once, it was not like that.

It had heroes and champions.

They called themselves...

THE EXALTED


Malfeas

In the Demon City, nothing sleeps. The demons themselves ply their trade, work and mingle with the Akuma that have lessened greatly in recent years. They live, work, and die under the watchful gaze of Ligier, the Green Sun of Malfeas. There is Oramus, and the Ebon Dragon, She Who Lives In Her Name and the lightless waters of acidic bile that make up Kimbery. Isidoros tramples through Szoreny, while Adorjan blows and Sacherevell slumbers still, dreaming strange dreams of prophecy.

Cecylene forms the barrier, but none have left, as the rites of summoning have been forgotten by all except the Infernals. And so, to pass the time, they speak of what little knowledge they can glean from the now-isolationist Heavenly city of Yu-Shan.

They do not speak with words, they speak with thoughts, the will of the Demon City, Malfeas himself, dominant above all.

Any word from Yu-Shan? She Who Lives In Her Name thinks.

With the tear in that accursed Gauntlet, the God-Blooded are regaining their powers. It is most amusing. The Ebon Dragon responds.

And what of the Solars, the Celestials? She Who Lives In Her Name thinks.

They will return. It comes from no-one in particular, just a feeling of fear.

The thought moves throughout Malfeas, as the Demon-King screams in rage at the very thought. Towers shatter, buildings crash as layer after layer of Malfeas is torn apart and falls into Kimbery to be digested and devoured, along with all the unfortunates within.

He will not suffer this. He moves, to call forth the Infernal Exaltations. They will go to this new world, and take it over, by force. He will not have the Solars take it...

1. The Exalted are Immune to Paradox
Paradox ONLY affects oWoD Mages, and ONLY when they are using Magick (sic). So this doesn't even need to be a rule. Every other splat in the world is immune to paradox, so there's no need to say this. (If you're primarily familiar with Mage in oWoD, the exalted would be considdered 'hedge mages', and therefore their 'magic' is part of the world and not subject to paradox)

2. There are lots of impostors
There are already a bunch of irreconcileable mythology/histories amongst the oWoD splatbooks. The common approach is 'somebody is lying, or more likely, everybody'. Don't come up with a way of reconciling all the myriad 'truths'. Who ever said that the history of the world has to make sense?

Should be interesting.

I'm primarily familiar with Mage, but I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for reminding me.

I know, and I'll likely keep it that way. There will be gaps in the mythos, I can assure you.

I think the hardest part about making this work is the power-level difference, really.

For example, the low level Charm 'Rising Sun Soul' allows Solars to generate Sunlight for no cost. Permanently. Which fucks over vampires in general.

More importantly, do to how lethal the Exalted Setting is, the defensive powers are made to be really, really good. The biggest example of this are the perfects, but even non-perfect defenses are pretty badass. Five-Fold Bulwark Stance, for example, will allow you to pretty much ignore everyone in the oWoD.

If you have Elusive Dream Defense, Seven Shadows Evasion, Integrity Protecting Prana, and two or three other Charms I don't remember the names of right now, then you can basically ignore all non-Exalted opponents.

But then, that might not be a problem as long as you have a way to work in the Abyssals. Remember, the Infernals (while my favorite Exalted) have a bad tendency to get screwed over by Holy and, well, other Celestial Exalted in general. Whereas Holy is basically a waste of time against Abyssals.

I think it would be better to look at the timeline as a matter of Ages. Like this:

Zero Age: Primordials create Creation, mortals, and the Incarna. TUS and his Incarna brethren revolt, creating the Exalted to fight for them. The Exalted win and thus ushers in the greatest Age - the First.

First Age: Everything is idyllic... or would be, if the Primordial's Great Fuck-You wasn't turning the Exalted insane. The Age culminates in the uprising of the Dragonbloods and ends with most Celestial Exalted being ran off(Sidereal, Lunar), or killed and their Exaltations imprisoned(Solar).

Second Age: Age of the Dragonbloods; the Solars begin to return. Malfeas and the Wyld make their plays in the resulting chaos. In the end, it's the mortals, who through a universal desire to not be fucked with by beings beyond them, subconsciously cause a reboot of Creation, changing it. This reboot is called God.

Third Age: Events begin to happen to bring the oWoD about starting with the Angels and leading to the Fall. Thus, Demon: The Fallen.

4th Age: Dark Ages.

5th Age: Modern times, and oWoD. But, see, the God that came into being by the mortals of Creation's desire and subconscious wishes isn't actually all powerful in regards to the real Creation... Yu-Shan and Malfeas weren't destroyed by the reboot, and neither was the Wyld(Deep Umbra to Mages). They were only pushed back for a time. And in the chaos of Antediluvians waking, Lucifer and the Fallen making their latest attempt to battle Heaven, Heaven's response, the Fae meddling again, Malfeas meddling again(Baali, Nepherandi, etc), the Lawgivers are returning. And those in the know begin to fear again.

I have a plan to put in the Abyssals...let's just say there are parts of the shadowlands that Stygia doesn't know about, and with the Sixth Great Maelstrom, secrets long forgotten are coming to light...

I also have plans to put in the Alchemicals, seeing as they're my second-favourite Exalt type.

You know, that certainly would work to my liking, but I need a way to throw in the Wyrm. Perhaps he can be one of the Celestial Incarnae, made by the Ebon Dragon at the beginning of the Third Age as a weapon against Yu-Shan? I don't know about the Weaver though. Also, one thing I'd do is separate Exalted-Malfeas and oWoD Malfeas, because I have plans for the Infernals...

Green Sun Nightclub


The Green Sun Nightclub and bar moved to a techno beat under venomous green lighting, as the people danced in a rhythm reminiscent of a rave. Most of the people within were Goths, and little did they know that other 'creatures of the night' lurked within, staying at the sidelines of the modern version of a Bacchanalia. The proprietor, one Augustus M. Faith, stared at the corruption taking place, the building built according to occult geometry known only to those who still believed in the rightful masters of reality.

He laughed inside, for even with the distance and the Gauntlet and the filthy insect-cultists that were the Mages, Vampires and Werewolves, he served the true masters of reality, and had been initiated into secret knowledge. He served under the banner of the Green Sun, emblem of Malfeas the Demon-City and Ligier, his fetich soul. There was a reason this building attracted so many vampires. There was a reason it smelled of Wyrm-taint to the Garou.

It was built on a demesne, a wellspring of raw essence, blessed by the touch of Amalion, the Manse of Echoes Ascending, summoned in a secret ritual conducted in the dead of a moonless night. He watched as the rave slowed, as the waitresses, dressed in black clothes, carried the drinks (that they, unsuspecting, believed were red wine) to the vampires, who devoured it with aplomb.

He watched as a vampire led a waitress, called Augusta Daybreeze as he recalled, away out of the night-club. Good. Another sacrifice to reality's true gods was about to be made.

OooOOooOO

Saturnius, Ventrue of the Camarilla, smiled as he lead the young girl into the alleyway. He would drain her of all her precious Vitae, and perhaps make her into a Childe. Yes, that would be a positively delicious thing to do. His Domination of her was complete, soon she would either lie dead on the alleyway, or be transformed into another creature of the night.

Then, for her, something happened, as she fought the Domination with all her might. Time slowed to a crawl, and she was no longer in the alleyway, but in the throne-room of some indescribable being. He shone with light, so much it was almost blinding, and she couldn't see his face. He had four arms, bearing a lance, a shield, a laurel branch and a horn in his hands.

He spoke, in a voice that reminded her of every voice she had ever heard, a torrent of sensations so great it was like bliss.

'The world is sick. Heal it,' he said, and then she was back in the alleyway, facing what could only be described as a vampire. He looked surprised, terrified even. And she punched, with strength she hadn't known she had.

The vampire was thrown back. Light shone, blazing forth from her, and the vampire tried to run, but she was faster. Another punch shattered his rib, another broke his jaw. A kick to the arm sent it hanging limp, the vampire trying to cry in pain but unable to.

She punched down on his chest, pulverising bone and destroying his heart, breaking through his spine as his corpse fell down. The light shining forth from her did the rest, rapidly reducing the vampire's body to dust.

She was quitting this job.

Looks interesting so far, though I'm curious how you'll handle the Exalt's effects on the Masquerade and it's assorted equivalents. Exalted powers, especially higher-tier powers and sorcery, aren't exactly... inconspicuous.

I assume that all kinds of Celestial Exalts are going to show up sooner or later, but what about Dragonblooded? Their process of exaltation is quite different, after all.

As a side note; anyone willing to take bets whether we'll see a character incorporating modern firearms into Righteous Devil or Golden Exhalation Style MA?

Well, the existence of the Exalted is going to be revealed shortly after the first major fight. They're not exactly subtle. Then, everybody's plans will be ruined beyond repair.

As for the Dragon-Blooded, there are perhaps 1000 (mostly Asiatic in genetics) people of pure enough breeding to Exalt. The Alchemicals...well, Autocthon has stabilised, but is still asleep, populated and currently being explored by Iteration X. I'm going with the idea that the Magical Materials are rare (outside Autocthon of course, and Soulsteel is a special case)

And as for guns in martial arts, we will certainly see lots of that.

Hm, why so few Dragonblooded? Depending on the number of Alchemicals, you might end up with mire Celestial Exalts than Terrestrial ones.

Because the old bloodlines have been heavily diluted, and the Dragon-Blooded themselves are now in the realm of myth. And the lack and thin blood of Dragon-Blooded might actually help them...say, if they were fighting a certain Empress with a lot of Dynasty Charms...

Actually, I'm pretty sure that the Weaver got mentioned in Exalted. Or were you talking about something else?

The Weaver is a spirit of order, if I member my one Werewolf session correctly?

If so, it could be linked to Asna Firstborn, mother of the Pattern Spiders.

As for the Wyrm, I honestly don't remember enough to make a good suggestion. Some info would be nice.

That's a good idea for the Weaver, Asna corrupted by She Who Lives In Her Name. The Wyrm can be a Celestial Incarna-level spirit of corruption created by the Yozis as a weapon against Yu-Shan.

It doesn't have to be an intentional corruption; the Loom of Fate (and, by extension, Asna and the Pattern Spiders) were designed for a vastly different reality from the modern day one, causing malfunctions.
Kind of like running Windows on an Apple computer; it might work, but it's not really meant to. (Then again, I don't know much about Apple computers, so it might be perfectly alright to run Windows on one and I'm just shooting my own argument down.)

The Wyrm, as I already said, I don't really know enough about. If it is aimed at Creation as a weapon, though, then there's more than enough potential sources; the Yozis, the Malfeans, the Fair Folk... more than enough to pick from.

The Shadowlands

Lord Midian of the Dark Kingdom of Iron looked into the sky and beheld the great Maelstrom, a force that every mortal storm ever dreamt of was nothing before. Dark lightning flashed in the sky, as the howling winds continued blowing in a great circle, around the former Vampire city of Enoch, once home to the True Black Hand.

Now, Stygia was ruined and desolate, annihilated by the power of Oblivion.
But, rumours told of a city flying above the Tempest, and legends had long told of a substrata, a foundation for the Shadowlands, overlaying and overlapping it. Had the Maelstrom awoken something best left undisturbed? Had it opened a portal to another realm?

Midian was terrified by the thought. For all he knew, there ware Wraiths there older than prehistory. What was there to be found? The ghosts of demons and gods? Then, it appeared before him. A great city, with towers of screaming soulsteel, so that they wailed in agony, built around the grand maw of Oblivion itself. Thirteen towers higher than the rest, 5 palace-tomb-bodies hovering over the well, whispering to him. For dead gods can still dream.

These were older, more terrible than even the Malfeans. The other wraiths were looking, trapped in rapt horror, and a positively massive figure appeared before them. His face was not seen, for he bore a mask, made of frigid, glacial ice, grinning maniacally. He wore tattered funerary robes, and black armour made of soulsteel, with a positively gigantic sword, longer than six feet, covered in ice and frost.

He then made a pronouncement, his voice as solemn as the grave.

'You may know me as the Mask of Winters.'

Masquerade? You're kidding, right?

A Celestial Exaltation generates iconic anima flare. The kind that can be seen for MILES. Anytime a Celestial lights up their anima to the 16+ level, the same display is created.

When the Celestial Exalted return, everybody is going to know about it unless they are really god-damned good at denial.

Upper East Side, New York

Lucien Xerxes was a made man. He was handsome, but his sins and vices were many, even when he wasn't out being a hitman. He didn't care about the money, he only cared about the fun of mowing people down, and in many ways, this made him a viable candidate for an Infernal exaltation.

Of course, he didn't realise that it was gonna happen till the demon appeared right next to him. It was ape-like, its fur the colour of blood, and it looked like it was gonna hit him.

'Master has sent me,' it said in a high, whining, nasal voice. 'Will you go with me and receive the spark? Will you receive the shard of power?'

'Uhh...yes,' Lucien said.

Then, in a flash of green fire, he was gone from the world.

OooOOooOO

Lucien looked around, the place was bizarre, like a waking dream. The air was hot and humid, and a green sun burnt in the sky, its baleful light filling the sky. In the streets, what could only be described as demons of all shapes and sizes walked around, plying their wares, working and travelling. The thing û Lucien had elected to call it a 'blood ape' û was leading him through the streets, toward a distant palace.

The building was built of black, green-veined marble and corroded brass, and looked like it had seen better days. Its style could best be described as 'Psychotic Gothic Neoclassical' -flying buttresses and arches and gargoyles and all that as far as the eye could see, but the columns and faþade ahead could have been from Ancient Greece.

Lucien walked toward the door, terror filling him. He opened it, stepped into the corridor, and was suddenly in a throne-room in which two men and three women sat, all far taller than regular humans.

'You have been brought before the Throne of Reclamation,' the foremost, central man intoned, in an arrogant, rage-filled voice.

'Analysis of Essence of body and soul is complete. Subject is ready to receive the Exaltation-shard,' said a woman, in the tone of an intelligent scientist.

'How...did I get here?' he asked, fear filling him.

'You have been found worthy of a great honour, Lucien,' a man dressed all in black stated in a conniving, sneering voice. 'You are ready to become a Prince of the Green Sun.'

'How?' he tried to say, but it was muffled as unholy fire coursed through him, he realised he was floating, as suddenly a sensation like burning heat and freezing cold at the same time filled him, then he fell on the black basalt floor, shock filling him.

'Who...who are you?' he said.

'The rightful rulers of reality. Now, the initiation begins!' the foremost man, the one with the voice that made it sound like he thought he was king of everything and was very, very angry, said.

'What-' he tried to say, but found himself falling down and down, as things became even more dreamlike...

Or if they have no idea what is happening, which would be the reaction of most of the oWoD's conspiracies.

South Side, Chicago

Alexander Dawn had the look of a frustrated man. He'd seen too many exsanguinated corpses, and no sign of the serial killer he was hunting. Corpses, exsanguinated through the neck, all across the city. The Green Sun Nightclub was close to where he lived, was a hotbed of crime and vice, and many of the deaths happened in an alleyway near it. He'd heard of a woman who'd survived an attack, just the night before. Augusta Daybreeze, he thought her name was.

He looked into the shadows, and thought he saw something moving. It walked out, and it was wearing a black leather trench-coat, like in that movie, the Matrix or something. He just had to get one of those.

But it was transforming, and now had claws and fangs and black fur, and loomed over him, and was growling something. Instinctively, he fired at it, but it just dodged, and then time stopped instantly, and he was in...

..he was in a barracks, sparring with other soldiers. He had some kind of sword, and his blond hair was waving. A man looked over him, on a throne, wearing bronze armour, with a handsome face, bearing a lance, a shield, a laurel branch and a horn in his four arms.

He spoke with a voice of infinite, just, and glorious authority.

'Go forth and fight with the will of the righteous.'

Thousands of memories and experiences filled him in an instant, a whirlwind that threatened to drown his very being, but it was a soothing feeling, as knowledge of how to fight and what to do filled his mind. He was more than human now. He was Exalted.

When his mind returned, the various colours of dawn shot out from him in a pillar that reached a hundred metres wide and miles high, as sheer golden energy flowed through him and the Werewolf (for that word was the only way to describe such a thing) looked cowed, terrified.

Bullets burst out from his gun without number, striking the weak points, wounding the thing. Before long, they began to burn with golden fire, setting it aflame from outside and inside, as the knowledge of the moves he had just done filled him. Second Firearms Excellency and Essence Arrow Attack. Boy, did they sound cheesy.

But that didn't matter. What mattered was that the werewolf was trying to stagger away in horrific agony. He fired a single bullet, hitting the head, which exploded, undeservedly putting the monster out of its misery.

It fell dead, and he was victorious. But what he really needed to do, was figure out the meaning behind all those deaths at the Green Sun Nightclub.

OooOOooOO

Agent Harrison of the New World Order looked intently at the holographic map of Chicago. Just an hour past, an event had happened in the middle of Chicago, a pillar of light shining with immense amounts of power û about 40 Primes, just 10 less than in the Zapathasura Incident, the destruction of Bangladesh from a battle between two types of Reality Deviant (not to mention the rain of nuclear weapons the Technocracy had unleashed). Then a solid emission of 30 Primes worth of power, with an energy signature unlike anything seen ever before.

This was a new type of Reality Deviant, and it had to be destroyed utterly. He knew that the build-up would alert the Traditions, but he didn't have a choice. Kill, or be killed, that was the way of the Technocracy. Kill-teams were being sent, HITmarks and clone-troopers were being deployed. Soon, this little problem would end, and he would be given a promotion. Soon, it would be Senior Agent Harrison.

So, I'm not a big authority on the subject, having discovered the White Wolf lines of games recently, but I'm surprised that nobody mentioned this little tidbit:

Exalted was originally intended to occur prior to oWoD before White Wolf decided to separate the game lines.

Just thought that might be relevant to you, since there's probably information you could find and/or use for this fic idea. There may not be any concrete information to use though, and you may not care either way, so disregard this if it's not relevant to you.

[edit] Aaaand fuck, didn't realize that this thread was a year old. Saw it was on the first page and commented. Sorry for the necro. :sweat:
