02:47 pm - Additional Mountain Folk Artifacts
Given that the Mountain Folk are famed as artificers, I could have written an entire chapter full of cool toys. Unfortunately, I didn't have room to give you anything more than the basics, so I'm going to provide additional material on this journal. Please keep in mind that none of this stuff is canon. Also, please don't repost any of this stuff elsewhere. If you want to reference it, link back. Thanks. Oh, and as always, I welcome feedback and suggestions.

09:27 pm - Exalted: the Fair Folk
This book is now in stores, featuring a chapter on the Mountain Folk that I wrote. Unlike the other chapters, this section is completely self-contained, like a book inside the book. I think it's nifty, but I'm horribly biased.
Reading through the various critiques, someone pointed out that they felt the MF Charms were kind of convoluted in a Lunar way. Thus, with the generous hosting of ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) goldenh, I decided to give you the crude sketches I made when I was writing to keep track of the names. I has not put any information regarding the descriptions of the Charms. If you want that, you'll have to buy the book. Oh, and for the record, if this gets lots of hits, I'll need to find someone else willing to host the images. Volunteers can say so in comments.

Hope you all enjoy!

02:04 am - Celestine High
From a conversation I had with RSB:
rebecca: You know, Peter Parker really would be a much better Solar than Lunar, except for the webbing.
Nephilpal: quite possibly
rebecca: So my theory is, the US snuck into Autochthonia and Exalted him.
rebecca: Probably hiding from Mars, who is normally quite chaste but is a bit too much for even the US when she gets Venus sickness.
Nephilpal: *giggle*
rebecca: And then Peter Parker stole an experimental Alchemical weblauncher Charm.
Nephilpal: *more giggles*
rebecca: She's his equal in battle, you know.
Nephilpal: and in bed?
Nephilpal: I kind of always pictured the Celestines as high school archetypes
Nephilpal: The US was the quarterback with the dazzling smile, and Venus was the head cheerleader who was really a total slut, but the ostensible gf of the sun. Gaia and Luna were titillating all with their taboo fling and everyone seceretly surmised or fantasized that Venus occasionally got in on the action. Mars had a big crush on Gaia, but she wasn't Gaia's type because she was always so bitchy and butch. Mercury was a bit vapid, but ran track and had flings with Primordial college kids when no one was looking. Saturn was a mopey gothgirl that the Sun was constantly trying to get in the pants of, but she wasn't having any. Of course, she was also sarcastically narrating the whole scene like Daria. Jupiter was the bookish nerd-valedictorian who had the whole librarian allure going for her. The sun would have nailed her, too, but just on general principle. Gawky and ever-awkward Autocthon had the biggest crush on her and everyone knew it, but she was so mysterious and into her books that no one knew what she liked.
rebecca: *giggle*
Nephilpal: I'm serious. Celestine High. That's vaguely how I've always pictured them.
rebecca: Makes sense!
Nephilpal: It also explains why Exalted automatically regress into teengae melodrama. It's built into them by their patrons.

01:52 pm - Artifacts Main Page
I wrote the following canon artifacts:
- Soul-Heart (• Kingdom of Halta, p. XX)
- Sky-Cutter (•• Kingdom of Halta, p. XX)
- Vengeful Thunder (N/A Kingdom of Halta, p. XX)
I'll put the appropriate page numbers in when I go home and get them.
Here are a few non-canon Artifacts written for my own amusement and/or my ongoing series:
- Arrow Monsoon Quiver (•••)

01:30 pm - Arrow Monsoon Quiver
This artifact serves as an endless source of enchanted arrows, but is particularly devastating in conjunction with a powerbow. Obviously, certain Charms obviate the need for such an artifact, but the enchantment and ability to generate arrows without using a Charm for the turn leaves it marginally useful even to accomplished archers of the Chosen.

04:27 pm - The Pharaoh of Scouring Sands in the Oasis of His Regret
This is a new Deathlord I came up with. He's vaguely Egyptian in his motif, but he dispenses with the well-worn bandaged/desiccated mummy concept. He's complicated and tragic, but no less evil in his ultimate ambitions than any of his colleagues. He is definitely different, though. I hope you enjoy him as much as I enjoyed imagining him.
