[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8057065, member: 83242"] OK, that is just a portion of the sources in the current rules. You can get QP from fonts, artifacts, and worshipers, in addition to directly from other exalted. Again, it is an interesting idea. Just not the route I'm taking. Yes, that is what I am doing in the current version. Lots of great ideas and similar to what I am doing in the new version; however, you've taken it a bit further conceptually. I am not personally so tied to the idea of "manifestations" as you are - but I do like it and it is not incompatible with what I am doing now. However, I think it would have to be more fully incorporated in issue 5+. I never said they could do anything. My gods definitely have restrictions. Personally I have been vacillating about how much I should limit. Initially it was completely free form and you just spend QP to get/do things. Then I did an almost 180 and made it very similar to standard D&D with set gains at each level & rank with restricted uses based on rest. Now I have a combination of the two. However, I've begun to feel that I have too many subsystems and it is getting overly complex. Maybe your manifestation concept is a method to simplify things and have a unifying concept. I will definitely look at it through that lens after I get the draft complete. [/QUOTE]
