Re: New to OVA: A Few Questions
2) Speaking of Knowledge and Ineptitude, how broad or specific should these be? For example, what if someone were making an anime maid type of character? Would they simply take something like Knowledge (Domestic Service) and leave it at that? Or would they take each of their particular maid skills ...

Re: Giving up on OVA
That's unfortunate, I sympathize. I've been intending to run a OVA one-shot or campaign for my gaming group, but anxiety and difficulty coming up with plot is hindering me. By the way, I'm fond of FATE, but what's PDQ?

Re: Setting and System Conversion Thread.
Well I don't know the specifics of what kind of powers the Dragon'skin grants, but I would say use either base zero or a power ceiling, whichever you think appropriate, and grant some free points in Abilities appropriate to the color. Maybe grant some appropriate attacks as well. As a sidenote, I wi...

Re: Setting and System Conversion Thread.
I like all of that. What time period does it take place in? Modern would be cool, but I also have a mental image of Green Dragon Druids fighting against Gold Dragon Romans.

Re: Setting and System Conversion Thread.
Yeah, it is meant to make PC's harder to kill. Exalts take a lot of punishment to put down. I am thinking of making it so that you cannot start with Cult above +2 though. Anything higher than that takes experience and roleplaying to acquire. Plus, it does take a full action to recover, and some enem...

Re: Attack levels?
I believe it refers to the number of ranks you have in the Attack ability. I'm not 100% on that though, so you may wish for a second opinion.

Setting and System Conversion Thread.
Just a general thread to post setting-specific Abilities, Weaknesses, and whatnot. I intend to post stuff related to Exalted at first, perhaps more later. Everyone is welcome to post their own work, and I welcome any critique or suggestions regarding my own stuff. Exalted: I was thinking that the po...

Question about Tough
The rules state that "You can also add your Tough Dice when forced to shrug off pain, or otherwise exhibit your resilience and durability."
Does this mean you can add your Tough dice to defense rolls against physical attacks?

Re: Setting up a Forum RP for OVA
I'd also be interested in a forum-based game, if it's not already overcrowded.

Re: Squishier heroes/beefier mechs
Sorry for posting in a thread that's a couple months old, but an idea struck me. Could you stat the mech as your "main" character, and have an alternate version of Companion or Minions that act as the pilot/crew of the mech? The mech itself would probably have a Weakness that prevents it f...

Re: Pick a character!
Thanks for the welcome, and the advice, although I got sidetrack from my original goal. Here's Frank West from Dead Rising instead. Critique is welcome, btw.

Re: Pick a character!
I'm still really new to the system, and haven't had much experience with character creation, but I'm thinking of writing up some characters from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Afro Samurai.
Also, obligatory "hello everyone!" since this is my first post.
