to:

* She definitely used every trick in the book and then invented some more to stave off aging effects, including highly immoral, and at least 3e fluff implies that she's kept running by Imperial Manse hearthstone (which she always keeps touching her skin or inset in artifact). Also, Mnemon stopped aging too, and she's a Dragon-Blooded without any doubts. Empress prowess speaks more of ineptitude of other Dragon-Blooded - during the Shogunate she was an ordinary leutenant, just with a legendary Breeding.




to:

* Among other things, he's a full-fledged mortal sorcerer, so at least some of his ineptitude is fake due to the nature of the trials.



* Except this doesn't fit Malfeas' nature or thought process at all. Malfeas is totally solipsistic. "The powerful get to make their own rules" fits Cecylene, not Malfeas

[[WMG: Ebon Dragon is the first and the true Neverborn]]
Actually Lethe COULD process Primordials, but they had to submit to it willingly in a conscious effort. And they would still lose all memories and selves and be reborn as someone else. Being an embodiment of a DirtyCoward newly slain Shadow of the Dragon could not accept it and instead cursed the whole Creation to rot and cease to exist, if only he could live. That's how he learned the power of dying curses he later taught to other Neverborn. His tore a hole in the backdrop of Creation, where it was connected to shinma Nirguna, and there he hurled his own death, inverting his existence into the Dragon, Shadow of which he was before. Because he technically became himself, his charmset went relatively unchanged and thus whole thing was overlooked. While he was inverted into life, Lethe was broken during the act and the next Primordials to be slain could only stew in their rotting Essence, unable to do anything and driven insane. Now, if you kill him again, he will simply reform in Underworld, betraying his most closely guarded secret. And while you have to unweave Creation whole to fully get rid of the damage (Eye is right about Neverborn's plans on Fair Folk invasion), you can supposedly plug the hole to at least stop it leaking - by dragging the Dragon into the Void, kicking and screaming (most likely Neverborn will assist), possibly fed several protoshinmaic vortices prior to that.

[[WMG: What the Getimians are]]
Known spoilers draw them as an intrinsically linked counterpart to Sidereals, with same starmetal affinity and, apparently, even greater grasp on Sidereal Martial Arts, but with powers opposite in theme. Fluff-wise they're fates that should not exist, and they were sealed away until Thulio rediscovered and freed them.
So, remember how Sidereals were created? Maidens took greatest threads of their purviews from the Loom and wove them into Exaltation, forever removing these destinies from the Tapestry. Now, how do Getimian Exalt? They wake up one day and discover that their previous life does not exist.
Putting the two together: Getimian Exaltations are made of remains of destinies sacrificed to make Sidereals. They were tied into knot and hidden by Maidens, until Thulio found and untangled them. As to their patron - it's Loom itself and Pattern Spiders. Their fates are still required to exist, because they're linked to Sidereals, and so they're Exalted each time such a thread runs its course.

[[WMG: Rakshas can make functional analogues to Exalted]]
They just don't know it, because they never tried, and the process sacrifices the Heart Grace, which is remade into ersatz Exaltation. Or it's a secret, known only to most influential Nobles.
These Narrated (why not?) have their charms based on Virtues, like fae, and as a special power have access to shaping and glamour/gossamer manipulation by default. They're also outside Fate unless forcibly bound to Loom. Their analogue of Limit is Consistency - at the moment of exaltation they're bestowed some narrative or archetype, and must adhere to it, emulating Rakshas' lifestyle, with penalties for acting out-of-character and resetting the story with some dose of MindRape once it hits zero.

* If you've every had played a dungeon crawl, you know that players can have their characters engage in objectively sociopathic behavior: cheerfully invading someone's home to murder them and take their possessions, getting frustrated and angry when they defend themselves, committing over the top or downright bizarre acts of violences, waiving around ten-foot poles... or if your fan of video games: helping yourself to other's possessions, putting baskets over their heads, or telling people ''exactly what they want to hear'' in order to maximize a relationship value. Even the slave trade with the Guild is comparable to buying and painting miniatures for use in a game.

* Perhaps the Unconquered Sun was once the Ebon Dragon's Fetich, back when he was the Dragon's Shadow. As his most powerful Soul and yet his antithesis, the Proto-Sol Invictus crushed any dark spirits produced by his Primordial Oversoul (perhaps driven by an intimacy of hatred instead of the usual 3rd Circles' intimacy of loyalty). To impose the ultimate virtue upon Creation, he ripped out his own heart, imposing Fetich death upon himself, and had it converted into a god without peer. If the first Gods were made out of the Primordial's component souls, it would also explain the similarity between Gods and Devas/Demons. In any case, he cast out his own grand heart in order to separate his darkness from his light, claiming it would serve as a testament to Theion's own glory, and set it to protect Creation from external threats while the newly born Ebon Dragon's darkness deepened and took shape.


Added DiffLines:

*** Ink Monkeys has some information on Mardukth, Who Holds In Thrall. It presents the first King of the Primordials (before Theion) as one who drew the world to him, calling existence into being with him. The title isn't elaborated on, but it is surely no coincidence that it is shared with one of the Neverborn. Possibly the first Primordial to be killed, perhaps He Who Holds In Thrall is the Primordial/Shinma (who may or may not be related) that forged the first piece of the Underworld with his passing; but as he died, he asked one last time "Who am I?" and that dark new world provided him with an answer in the form of Oblivion: "Nothing."
