* ''Synopsis'': [[Determinator Sesus Ulyssian]] is the first mortal student to ever step between the gates of the Imperial Naval Academy. The story chronicles his desperate struggle to measure up to his Exalted peers, dodge reprisal from the Immaculate Order, and prove that a mere human can make a difference in the face of an uncaring and oppressive society.

** I don't recommend this. In general, it's a pretty generic story, but still better than most, so YMMV on that. The real kicker, though: the main character, the SOLAR EXALTED, is raped by a MORTAL. Not a heroic one. Just some mortal. A Solar. Was raped. By a mortal. It's really, really goddamn stupid.

** What's interesting about this fic is that it uses all the bits of Exalted power that don't get as much attention. Shinji's Solar Hero Style isn't that useful against the Angels, but he gets to show off Solar Medicine, Solar Bureaucracy, and even Solar ''Cooking''. His powers affect every aspect of this story in some way.

** I second this fic. Before i read it, I had no idea what Exlated was, nor did I have any desire to play it or any other tabletop RPGs. Now, I have a strong urge to do so. The [[BigDamnHeroes purpose of]] [[ScrewDestiny the Exalted]] blends seamlessly with facing the threat of the Reapers. Even more remarkable is the fact that, even with all the added powers, Shepard still comes off as a realistic character with minimal [[MarySue Sue-ish]] qualities.

* "Comments": Well written, but not flawless. Commendable for taking certain characters in directions that are simultaneously logical from a character development viewpoint, and also almost unprecedented in the realm of Evangelion fanfiction (or at least, what Evangelion fanfiction I've read).

* ''Recommended By'' Fenix, Gamerex27, @/{{Andyroid}}
* ''Synopsis'': The Exaltation of the Unconquered Sun is a tricky thing. Especially when it doesn't come with an manual. Jane Shepard, who was able to talk Spectres into suicide before getting a spiritual superweapon grafted to her soul, has a new advantage. Crossover with Exalted.
* ''Comments'': It's written by the same author who wrote NobodyDies. Notable moments include [[spoiler: Shepard literally punching the Kepral's Syndrome out of Thane.]]

ponies might really have had their origins in Creation. There are a few spelling and grammar errors here and there, but they don't detract that much from the story, at least not to the point of throwing one entirely out of it.
