From The Whereabouts

Exalted: Solar is our primary game at the moment. Currently we run one storyline actively, and hope to revive the online forum play of at least one more. Our present chronicle is "Song for the Goats", our previous chronicle, unfinished as of now, was the third part of a trilogy of chronicles known collectively as "The Zerund Conflict." It's second installment, the Rise of Sentinel, we hope to play through online. It's worth noting, that as far as general mood goes, the Zerund Conflict chronicles were started when we were all younger, and there's no doubt any readers will notice bold references to any number of roleplaying games out there and a sense of "epic" so massive that it pushes the envelope even for Exalted. "Song for the Goats", on the other hand, is a bit more confined in its scope, though no less grandiose in its events.

Chronicles

Song for the Goats

The tale of a ragtag group of Exalts, drawn together by the most unlikely of circumstances and bound only by their loose ties to the Cult of The Illuminated and the unceasing threats of the Scavenger Lands. Also, it's the only place you'll encounter a Solar, a Lunar, a Sidereal, and Abyssal working together. Well, sort of. At least they aren't killing each other, right? In that situation, that pretty much counts as cooperation.

The Zerund Conlict

The mess begins with unstable Solar Exalt Daedric Cyrus paying an unspeakable price for the secrets of the Great Curse. Upon learning them, he goes mad and summons a dead alien god to "cleanse" the world of its incurably corrupt life forces. Soon enough, cults arise, politicians scheme, deals are made, and the nastiest conspiracy this side of the Usurpation erupts forth in no time flat. As if things weren't bad enough, the Ebon Dragon lies on the verge of a breakthrough in his quest to free the Yozis of their prison. Plenty of big swords, wandering warriors, riddle-talking monks, and enigmatic sorcerers to go around here.
