Bumped up the Glamour cap and gave some encouragement to actually interact with the monkeys you were wanting to interact with.

I like the new cap. The resource is alright too. I like it.

Okay, so barring any further input regarding assets or Unearthly Skill, I'm calling this done again?

Is it just me, or is Summer Court worth, like, 400 XP? The free raise on social tests could almost be an asset all by itself.

Probably not just you; my usual method for creation is to take the easiest route to the fluff and then hammer it down as further input is given. I did point out that assets were more important than dicking over languages, after all... :(

That being said, these are based on the Court of Stars from D&D4e. A quick rundown:

  • The Gloaming Court (that's Empyrean, here) is associated with slightly more abstract ideas, but generally with the night, dreams, and sleep. They're led by an archfey that is essentially Luna.
  • The Green Court is made up of classic nature fey... dryads, wood sprites, satyrs, etc.
  • The Summer and Winter Courts are more like traditional depictions of the Fair Folk; here, both are the traditional beautiful, terrible people, but the Summer (led by a queen known for both her beauty and her shrewd tactical mind) place more emphasis on that beauty and caprice, while the Winter should emphasize their callousness.
  • The Unseelie, in D&D4e, are more like Casteless Lunars... they don't really fit into any of the other courts, and here we have the tradition of them being outright horrific instead of merely unsettling.

I would remove the Combat Insight bit in Summer Court. It's an unnecessary addition to the asset.

For Winter Court, I'd just say that you can spend a Glamour (or make it a once per scene power) to add Snare to your weapon, instead of tying it to the Elemental Shot feat.

Edited Summer Court asset per weredrago's suggestion, currently looking into something more suited to the current Winter Court fluff for that one...

Okay, new plan: I recall mentioning at some point that this should also be usable for a character like the TFEIs from Haruhi Suzumiya, but that bit seems to have gotten lost somewhere. With that in mind, would it be so terrible to see about using the Summer and Winter assets for traits reminiscent of Asakura and Nagato?
