![]() European From the beginning of humanity's exploration of the Great Wheel, a collective of cultures so strange and ancient spread their customs for anyone willing to adopt them. Those who do find themselves realizing the greater lifestyle they've been missing out on all their lives and consider themselves exalted because of it. They are called Europeans, named after the ancient lands from which the cultures originated. Power Stat: Heart Grace Resource Stat: Glamour Tell: A European's tell is a gradual exaggeration of their cultural traits like accents and mannerisms, becoming more like a stereotypical caricature of their adopted nationalities as Glamour is spent. Powers
![]() Wacky Masque: Begin play with Speak Language (European) and Peer (European). The specialty provided by Unearthly Countenance to social characteristics is European Extravagance instead of Fae Perfection. Stereotypical Quirk: Every European has deep ties to their culture. Choose one of the following options when building your character:
![]() European Nationality Assets Dual Citizenship Choose another Stereotypical Quirk (England, France, Germany, Italy, Poland). You gain the benefits of that option with none of the drawbacks. Superpower Choose one of the following instead of the normal Stereotypical Quirk choices.
During Character Creation, you may place four dots in attacking skills before other bonuses are applied. Instead of its normal effects, Unearthly Countenance allows you to go up to six dots in physical characteristics and gives you a free specialty (Wartime Training) in each of them. You get a free raise to combat actions (e.g. attacking, dodging, casting attacking spells) but suffer -1k0 to all other tests. You may purchase this as a second Exalted Asset. Prestige Loan You may make a TN 10 Wealth test as a Full Action. If you succeed, you regain one point of Glamour plus an additional one for every raise but you must roll for Wealth Strain afterwards.

Extremely Confused

I feel like part of the Tell should be that their accent becomes far more pronounced. Supernaturally pronounced. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I feel like you need a fifth Asset. Dunno what country it would be, though - Italy? Greece? One of the Scandinavian ones? Russia (probably not, since this is more Western Europe The Exaltation?) By the way, European Excellence should probably say that it lets you take an extra Exaltation Asset rather than just straight-up an Exaltation. Also, you should probably add some verbiage about how they can bypass the normal only-two-Assets limitation if you're forcing them to take a Nationality Asset. Or just make that into a Dragonblooded-esque multiple choice power. ...Also, since when are you unable to spend resource points to improve social tests? Did I miss something in the base rules, or is that something from the Tuatha? |

Along with mannerism changes and exaggeration. I've added one for now. I'm trying to template off of Eisenwritter's creation, although France and Spain does feel interchangeable. I'm not well-versed in European stereotypes so I'll probably add more once I learn more about them (and figure out their gameplay niche). Good catch on the assets thing, I totally did not mean another exaltation. Also, the assets starts to feel less special if I allowed up to three. Also, as for the resource bit, I think it's inspired from the Tuatha. It's their gimmick, eldritch beings in a masquerade. |

Oh, nevermind about the asset thing - I mixed things up, it's only Hindrances that have a limit on them. For some reason I thought that applied to Assets as well. (Maybe it was a thing in an earlier version? I dunno.) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

So this has been sitting untouched for a while, but I just came up with a dumb idea about 30 seconds ago. A healing ability entitled "Free Health Care". Mind you I have no idea for what this should actually do specifically, because I'm exhausted right now, but I felt it was too fitting not to pich | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Hmm, easier/faster healing, or probably something to aid in wealth. A good ability to replace Iron Bane with. Currently in vacation, will try to check back next year. |

With two Joke exalts (Mary Sue, Toon), I'm inspired to bring back this piece of junk. I've retooled the exaltation assets to be different from the original material, probably focusing on skills and specializations with random quirks attached. I need suggestions though, I really don't know my Euro memes. |

I see Roko online every now and then, but he hasn't touched his iteration of my homebrew. Well, in that case I'm going to finish what I started. I'll go to sleep so I can finish this tomorrow, open for suggestions. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Thanks to Username for helping me fill in the gaps. This alt. exaltation is now complete for the most part (not satisfied with some of the asset names but I'm okay with that). Funny, the way the assets are arranged makes this seem more like an alternate Dragon-Blooded. I don't remember the reason why I initially made this, maybe it was the idea of sufficiently-alien foreigners? |
