Dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download
For the last millennium and a half, they were the unquestioned rulers of Creation itself. Despite being the weakest Exalted in terms of raw power, the Terrestrials are the most numerous Exalts by far.
Once the soldiers of the Exalted armies that fought the Primordialsthe Terrestrials murdered the Solar Exalted at the behest of the Sidereals and took over the reins of Creation.
The Dragon-Blooded are easily the most numerous of the Exalt types. Unlike the Celestial Exalted of whom set numbers exist, the Dragon-Blooded may breed among each other or the masses, with the children of such unions having a chance of Exalting at some point during puberty.
The purer the blood is, the more likely a child will Exalt. While approximately of all the other Celestial Exalted types exist in total, there are easily more than 10, of the Princes of the Earth, and there is no absolute force preventing them from growing more numerous.
While they are the champions of the Elemental Dragons, the Dragon-Blooded are not truthfully the "Chosen" as the Celestial Exalted are. The Dragon-Blooded are not imbued with the Dragons' power, but rather born with it through descent from their Dragon-Blooded parents and ancestors. The Terrestrials are thus the only Exalted who can pass power on to their descendants. The name Terrestrial is also somewhat of a misnomer: unlike dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download Exalted, dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download, who are imbued by for example the Unconquered SunLunathe Five Maidens or Autochthondragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download Terrestrials are not Exalted by Gaiabut rather via the Elemental Dragons who were themselves created by Gaia.
The Dragon Blooded were created by the Gods as foot-soldiers in the war against the Primordials; since that time, they have served primarily as soldiers and servants, aiding the more powerful Celestial Exalted by forming the bulk of the armies of the First Age.
The Terrestrials' raw numbers, and their ability to increase them, aided much in the Usurpation. At the end of the First Agethe majority of the Sidereal Exalted determined that the Solar Exalted were beyond repair, and fanned pre-existing flames of discontent among the Dragon-Blooded to the point that they rose up during Calibration and overwhelmed the Solars.
The Sidereals felt that as the Dragon-Blooded lived shorter lives, and dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download weaker individually, their rule would be peaceful, if less wondrous than the First Age that the Usurpation put an end to. Creatures of duty, the Dragon Blooded did this deed primarily to save Creation. With the fall of the Solars, the Dragon Blooded established the Shogunatethe last civilization born of the First Age.
Some information on the Shogunate is available in the various Dragon Blooded splatbookswhich indicate that the Terrestrials of the first age were organized in a society strongly reminiscent of Tokugawa-era Japan. Arguments about duty appear commonplace, dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download, and in many cases, high-ranking officers committed suicide over matters of honor.
The technological level was only slightly behind that of the Solar Deliberativealthough even then the Shoguns were aware of how far they had fallen.
During this time, the Scarlet Empress activated the first age defenses of the Imperial Manse and founded the Realm. With her accession to the throne, the Dragon Blooded can be divided into roughly three groups: the Terrestrial Exalted of the Scarlet Dynasty, the remainder of the Seventh Legion quartered in Lookshy and the remaining Outcastes scattered throughout the Threshold.
It should be noted that from the perspective of the Realm, Lookshy is also filled with outcastes. In the modern era, Dynastic Dragon Blooded are the absolute masters of the Realm, at the pinnacle of both the political structure of the realm and the theology of the Immaculate Philosophy. In the modern Realm, the Dragon Blooded are all ideally raised in one of the Great Housesalthough given their dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download and position, Lost Eggs regularly appear and are inducted into imperial society through other well-defined channels.
While Dynastic Dragon-Blooded may initially appear decadent and lazy to an outsider and a good number are decadentthey are still creatures of duty dedicated to the advancement of the Realm and their own personal goals. With the return of the Solar Exalted and the rise of the Abyssal Exaltedthe Dragon Blooded are coming to terms with the appearance of Anathema in a number unseen since the introduction of the Wyld Hunt. The realm is on the brink of civil war, and Lookshy is on the cusp of greatness.
The future of the Dragon-Blooded promises to be eventful. The Dragon-Blooded have five elemental Aspectswhich are functionally identical to the system of castes which the other Exalted share. Each correspond to one of the five elements of Creationand each is attributed to certain personality and skill tendencies:. The Dragon-Blooded Shogunate that formed in the ruins of the Usurpation lasted over years, nearly as long as the Scarlet Dynasty has now, in Realm Year However, the Shogunate crumbled with the arrival of the Great Contagionand although the Scarlet Empress rose to power and asserted order on the Blessed Isleshe could not establish a firm grasp on the Thresholdespecially the Scavenger Lands.
Many of the city-states in the Threshold now act as Realm tributarieswith varying amounts of influence coming from the Imperial City. These houses field armies, manage commerce, dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download, support the Immaculate Order which preaches both the divinity of the Dragon-Blooded and the evil of the Anathema.
They are also, by and large, quite decadent—marriages are a political alliance, and it is not uncommon for both partners in a Dynastic marriage to be having an affair. In fact, many Outcastes are born on the Isle and the Threshold because of dalliances between a Dynast and a peasant or Patricianthough often an elaborate ruse follows the pregnancy along to pretend that the child is born to a legitimate marriage, if the dynastic parent is part of such a thing.
Thus such a child grows up with noble education and upbringing, and if he or she experiences her Second Breaththen she does so not as an Outcaste, but as a Dynast.
Other Outcastes are born apparently spontaneously. These Lost Eggs are feted, and then given an option: serve in the Legionsor join the Immaculate Order. While those who chose the former may perhaps one day mingle their bloodline with the dynasty's, those who choose the latter take the vow of celibacy that all Immaculate Monks do. While the Dragon-Blooded are most firmly associated with the Scarlet Dynasty, many more exist that are not born into a noble house, or even the Blessed Isle where the Realm makes its home.
Lookshyto the east, is a fortress-city that stands between the Realm and the Scavenger Lands. Further east, the Forest Witches exist in a half-dream world in which they are invincible gods. Throughout Creationin fact, people occasionally spontaneously Exalt in their teenage years, though this is rare, dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download. Such Outcastes are usually better at whatever they turn their hand to than the mortal equivalent, and are thus easily capable of making a name for themselves, and often do.
With the disappearance of the Scarlet Empress, the Realm is thrown into upheaval as the Great Houses try to jockey for position to make a grab at the dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download claim enough deniability so that if the Empress were to return, they would not suffer the fate of House Iselsi or House Manosque. Currently, Regent Tepet Fokuf supposedly has the power of the throne. He lacks ambition, political experience, or competence in any arena, along with any blessing of the Dragons, making him an excellent pawn: none will weep for him, dragon blooded what fire has wrought pdf download his own house, if and when he dies to some power-play.
For those who choose to view a connection between the Age of Sorrows and the World of Darknessthe Dragon-Blooded correspond to modern Kuei-jin or perhaps to mages.
