What I've got so far:Aspects replace Intimacies. (Rather, an Intimacy is just a specific case of an Aspect.) PCs get some fixed number of them rather than a number related to their Compassion. I'm thinking 5-7.Each Aspect is tied to one of your four Virtues.Examples: <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Honor and Protect Lily Hoarsdotter, a Maiden of Whitewall -- probably Compassion</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Thwart and destroy Seven-Eyed Bloodblossom of the Fair Folk -- probably Valor</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Disseminate Truth -- probably Conviction</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Lead by Example -- probably Temperance</li> </ul>To use an Aspect, spend a point of Willpower. If it's a dice action, gain dice equal to the relevant Virtue on this action. If it's not a dice action, you simply succeed. (If success would normally be impossible, you get a dice action instead.)(The fun part): the GM can use an Aspect against you. This is like a mini-Limit Break. If you go along with it, you regain 1 Willpower and reduce your Limit by 1*. If you suppress the aspect, you lose 1 Willpower and gain 1 Limit.Now, what are some good Aspects for Exalted? And on the other side, what kind of things would be appropriate for SotC, but terrible in the hands of Creation's God-Kings?Thanks, -- N*) "... reduce your limit by 1". That's pretty freakin' strong right there. I'm tempted to give the Willpower free but use a roll to reduce Limit. Perhaps: roll the relevant Virtue (difficulty 2), success = reduce your Limit by 1.</blockquote>
