Exalted!

Frankly? Sounds like exactly what that guy's after.

Even better: Take over a bunch of places. Once built up, set them to conquer their neighbors. Each cardinal direction until you have conquered the rims, then pierce the Dynasty and final stop the Blessed Isles and the Imperial Manse!

And that's Phase One.

CONQUER THE WYLD.

Expand the border of Creation so yes, you conquer the Wyld.

Phase Three is hypothetical but in case their is anything beyond even the Wyld then their that as well.

Looking at the various supernatural martial arts styles, I ntoice that alot of them are animal-themed. Any reccomendations for a homebrew Crocodile style?

I'd say a Crocodile Style would have a mechanical focus on clinches ("seize them like the jaws of a crocodile") with a minor focus on deception and surprise attacks ("the crocodile feigns being a log, and then he strikes").

Beyond that no idea.

Are there unnamed and undescribed Deathlords that are 'fill in as the story-teller feels like'.

Yes, there are in fact 13 Deathlords, but only 8 are described. The rest you can go wild on.

There are, of course, some rather good fanmade ones around- I remeber seeing a rather cool one with a pseudo-Egyptian theme and a massive pyramid carried by countless undead slaves...

Finally got the Broken-Winged Crane. (OK, I should have gotten it earlier, but I was distracted by Magic The Gathering.)

FUCK. YES.

>DORKU: Ascend.

Honestly, now I'm tempted to build a blade-dancer Slayer using Malfeas and Adorjan Charms.

Considered that style myself. Adorjan Charms are wonderful, I'm gonna do some very cruel things to my Infernal with 'em- he's shortly going to get quite worked up about the morality of exploiting the Lunar Bond, then decide that he'll just reciprocate.

With Tragic Love Amusement.

There's weird shit in them thar Yozi Charmsets.

Gods yes. It's really quite fun to play around, particularly with Adorjan.

I had one very mean idea- get Tragic Love Amusement and the SW Li HN Charm (my guy's a Defiler) that messes up people who try to read your Motivation and Intimacies. Constantly switch Intimacies around with TLA and Freedom Lets Go. Either they don't learn about them and can't exploit it, so you get cheap stunt-upgrades and Compassion channels... or they run the risk of taking persistent dice penalties and damage...

Fellow Exalted player here. Exalted is the best RPG ever. There's no subjectivity to that statement. Fuck D&D, it's a boring peace of shit that's slow as hell. Exalted lets you be awesome.

I am now setting up to run my Empire in Scarlet and Steel alternate history in an IRC game.

Should be fun...

Are people near or in the wyld subjugated to fate? Just wondering.

Edit: Thanks Dorku.

Near, yes. In, the Loom is a bit disrupted, and by going far enough in you can get it to lose track of you for a while.

Likewise Autochthonia, the Underworld and Malfeas.

So, hypothetically speaking, would any mortal born outside (Like in the Border-Marches or deeper in the wyld or Autochthonia, the Underworld and Malfeas) of Creation be able to fuck over destiny then. That would be pretty interesting.

Edit: Oh well, would have been a cool idea otherwise.

After a while, they get integrated into the Loom. You leave you drop off after a while; you enter, after some time, the Spiders weave you in.

Aren't Tainted Exalted (Abyssals and Infernals) outside of Fate?

They are, but I was thinking of a massive invasion of people who could Screw Destiny, leading to... I don't know what but defiantly something awesome. It always is in Exalted.
