3	''[[http://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/conquest-quest-exalted-worm-thread-9-better-early-than-never.299215/ Conquest Quest]]'' is a ''Literature/{{Worm}}[=/=]TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}'' crossover ForumQuest started on Website/SpaceBattlesDotCom around October 2013. It is the story of Taylor Hebert acquiring a Twilight Caste Solar Exaltation at the beginning of her caped career. She then learns to live with this world-changing power, and will eventually work her way to saving the world - even if she has to Conquer it first!

8	----
9	!!''Conquest Quest'' contains examples of:
10	* AntiVillain: Taylor seems to be heading this way, deciding to become a criminal while still striving to make the city better and eventually save the world.
11	* ApocalypseHow: Creation has apparently undergone a Class 3 by the beginning of the story. ''How'' remains unanswered. %%Any elaboration on what Class 3 meant in this instance?
12	* BerserkButton: Doing stuff that reminds her of the bullying she experienced is a big one for Taylor. Fortunately, she's pretty good at restraining herself when necessary, or using only as much force as necessary. Unfortunately, doing so leads to [[{{RoaringRampageOfRevenge}} Limit Break]].
13	* BeyondTheImpossible: [[spoiler: One of the below [[{{MagicalGuide}} advisors]] managed to physically draw some sketches on paper, ''despite not having a body''. The other one is baffled at how she could have done this.]]
14	* ChickMagnet: One of the benefits of [[TheBeautifulElite high Appearance and Solar Exaltation]].
15	%%* CurbstompBattle
16	* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Taylor's learned how to properly utilize and enhance her looks, as well as being considerably more charismatic. Tattletale and Panacea both seem to have noticed.
17	* EveryoneIsBi: Lampshaded. Reya wasn't even ''aware'' sexual orientations existed until they were pointed out.
18	* HearingVoices: What the below Guides normally act as.
19	* InstantExpert: As an Exalted, she can become an expert at many skills nigh-instantly, and learn anything else at a vastly accelerated rate.
20	* JerkAss: Due to a glitch in her programming, Reya the First Age Solar Queen Guide can only show the living one's [[ControlFreak negative]] [[InsufferableGenius qualities]] when trying to help Taylor. She's actually very competent and wise, but that doesn't mean she isn't annoying.
21	* KangarooCourt: Canary's trial, where it's revealed that her lawyer is corrupt, the prosecution is biased, and the Judge uncaring. Her original lawyer was replaced, the media is being censored, and the District Attorney is on the take. Taylor is ''distinctly'' unamused.
22	* LittleMissBadass: Ladybug, [[spoiler: Taylor's familiar, who has the appearance and mindset of an adorable little girl, but enough power and skill to kick parahuman ass.]]
23	* MagicalGuide: Instead of a normal [[Main/BattleAura Anima]] and a few fragments of her [[{{Reincarnation}} past lives]] memories, Taylor receives two of these, in the form of a First Age Solar Queen, and Taylors Second Age predecessor.
24	* MegatonPunch: Lung is the victim of this at the hands of the one of the above advisors.
25	* OhCrap:
26	** When it starts looking like Firefly is a Dynakinetic who bypasses the Manton Effect, the Wards are not exactly reassured.
27	** After Taylor is a little ''too'' calm in hinting what her plans are to Lisa, the latter's SherlockScan abilities show she's not a parahuman. Seeing as how Lisa does not know a Solar Exalt is human, she leaps to the [[HumanoidAbomination apparent conclusion]] and understandably panics until Taylor gives her some room to breathe (and show that she is not planning to eat her).
28	* OutsideContextProblem: Nothing in Earth Bet is really prepared for a Solar Exalted.
29	* PhysicalGod: The Unconquered Sun, who makes an appearance during Taylor's Exaltation.
30	* RenaissanceMan: Taylor, yet again, thanks to the Exaltation.
31	* ShoutOut: The company bribing Canary's lawyer? [[VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries Sionis Industries.]]
32	%%* SheCleansUpNicely: Taylor, resulting in a boost to her confidence and self-esteem. %%Elaborate?
33	* SherlockScan: Tattletale already has a superpowered version of this in canon. Taylor demonstrates her own version, via the Investigation Excellency power.
34	* ShipperOnDeck: After getting a sense of Lisa, Reya immediately (and loudly) starts pressuring Taylor to take her as a wife, seeing as how her Sherlock Scan is ''really'' useful.
35	* SupernaturalMartialArts: Taylor practices Fist of the Daystar style.
36	* ThePowerOfTrust: [[spoiler: Taylor, despite all her issues[[labelnote:*]]and the Queen Administrator Shard[[/labelnote]] puts her trust and life in Tattletales hands.]]
37	* TransparentCloset: It's becoming increasingly obvious to the readers and some of the other characters that [[spoiler:Taylor]] is at least moderately bisexual, but she's [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday firmly convinced she's straight]].
38	* TranquilFury: Her Limit Break, "[[{{TranquilFury}} Efficient]] [[{{RoaringRampageOfRevenge}} Devastator]] [[{{UnstoppableRage}} Drive]]". [[spoiler: As [[{{MadBomber}} Bakuda]] and the [[{{GangBangers}} ABB]] can [[{{KilledOffForReal}} attest]] [[{{YouKillItYouBoughtIt}} to]].]]
39	* WindsOfDestinyChange: Spending Essence causes a world-wide disruption in precognition, as its usage cannot be accounted for in the local causality engine. This has attracted the attention of ''something''.
40	* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: Taylor's a Solar Exalted. Limit Breaks mean that she's doomed to go nuts every now and then.
41	* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Taylor to Amy, either subconsciously or deliberately. Amy, notable for her self-loathing, seems confused by how much Taylor, a supervillain, trusts Amy - a member of the New Wave superhero family - not to pull an ambush on her. Taylor replies that she trusts Amy ''because'' she's a hero and too good a person to do something like that.
42	* YourMagicsNoGoodHere: {{Subverted}}. As a Solar Exalted, she follows Creations laws, and can enforce those same laws on reality.
