Scroll of the Ages

Tales as the scribes would tell them. Facts as unbiased as the victors.

• Prelude: The Return of the Autumn Bringer

Songs of the Ascended

Stories of the Heroes and Villains that color the Age of Sorrows.

The Hall of Arguments

In the Celestial City of Yu-Shuan, the Gods argue over the Laws that bind this realm. In the Hall of Arguments, such debates are vented and settled, for the good or ill of all who dwell in Creation.

• The Law of Familial Heroes
• The Law of Concordant Texts
• The Law of Harmonious Battle

The Eye of Autocthon

• Video and Audio Conferencing: Skype
  • Hands free audio: I love the Polycom communicator for this. We use them at work, they cost about 90 bucks, and free you from the tyranny of headsets by doing echo cancelling right on the unit. I plan on using one for my home setup, so I can relax on my couch like I would in a normal game. Amazon.com sells them.
  • Video. Not neccessarily required, but I think for something this social, it would really help out.
• Documents: This Wiki
• Whiteboarding/Mapping: Unknown
• Dice, etc..: I trust y'all.
• Character sheets: Anathema (Mac users will need Tiger to run this, windows users may need to download some java.)
• Official Exalted Wiki: Shockingly detailed
• Unofficial Wiki: Mostly other people's house rules.
