The dice can also be used to settle a bet. The loser of the game is subject to a curse until the bet terms are met. The game is played with each exalt rolling one die. A roll of their associated metal wins them the game, unless the opponent has also rolled his or her associated metal. In this case, another roll is made. If a player rolls their opposite metal (for Abyssals, Orachalcum, for all other exalts, Soulsteel) then the player loses the game unless the opponent has also rolled his or her opposite metal. In this case, another roll is made. If a player rolls his or her associated metal while the opponent rolls their opposite metal, then the terms of the bet are doubled within reason.

5-sided Dice

Each has a different magic metal: Orichalcum, Starmetal, Moonsilver, Jade, and Soulsteel. An individual can infuse each die with a mote of esence and make one roll per day. Different combinations produce different effects. The duration of the effect is until sunrise, at which time the dice can be used again.

As a general rule for the individual rolls, if an exalt type rolls his or her associated metal, the effect is greater. When both dice show such metals, the effect is maximized. Soulsteel has a negative effect for all exalt types except Abyssal, where it has a positive effect. Abyssals who roll the dice receive negative effects from Orachalcum.

The dice can also be used to settle a bet. The loser of the game is subject to a curse until the bet terms are met. The game is played with each exalt rolling one die. A roll of their associated metal wins them the game, unless the opponent has also rolled his or her associated metal. In this case, another roll is made. If a player rolls their opposite metal (for Abyssals, Orachalcum, for all other exalts, Soulsteel) then the player loses the game unless the opponent has also rolled his or her opposite metal. In this case, another roll is made. If a player rolls his or her associated metal while the opponent rolls their opposite metal, then the terms of the bet are doubled within reason.

    • Others: There is an eerie silence after the dice fall; there is no flash of essence and no immediate effect. But the pattern spiders have been upset, and this exalt's strand in the loom of fate has a knot up ahead, usually within 24 hours of the roll. This roll has no effect if the character is outside fate.

    • Others: The character physically ages at an accelerated rate. By the end of the effect, the character will appear extremely old and weak. Every 6 hours, the character suffers an additional -1 external penalty to strength and stamina rolls and -1 appearance.
  • Jade/Jade
    • Dragon-Blooded: best case
    • Others: good
  • Jade/Soulsteel
    • Dragon-Blooded: interesting

Notes

••• Wonders: Three-dot artifacts confer a great
advantage in a single discipline or a significant advantage in
a broad range of circumstances. These powerful items give
their owners significant abilities denied to people who
lack such artifacts. A character with a grand daiklave,
facing a character with no artifact weapon whatsoever,
gets all the bets. Although truly clever or powerful
characters may be able to best the effects of a three-dot
artifact in its area of focus, it’s rarely a sure thing.

Three-dot artifacts may change the way certain
aspects of the game are played. Artifact weapons are
common enough that possessing one, even a three-dot
artifact weapon, only escalates combat rather than
changing it. But a knot that captures sorcery and paper
that becomes any contract, written and signed, provide
entirely new solutions to the game’s conflicts. Three dot
artifacts can be equated with Essence 3 or 4 Solar
Charms, but it’s a rough balance.

Maximum benefits: Attributes +3, Abilities +6,
Soak +6 and Hardness 6, Damage +6, Rate +2

Standard Essence (C/E): 8m/5m

Examples: Anyone would fear, and rightly so, the
warrior who wields a grand goremaul in battle. A belt of bat
wings that grants the ability to walk as a shadow confers a
matchless power. An enchanted mirror that allows a character
to speak through other mirrors is extremely useful, especially
in Exalted’s world of limited travel and communication.
A staff that places objects (not people) it strikes Elsewhere,
and can call them back just as quickly, has a myriad uses
in a clever character’s hands.

Artifact 2: Maximum benefits: Attributes +2, Abilities +4,
Soak +4 and Hardness 4, Damage +4, Rate +1

Artifact 1: Maximum benefits: Attributes +1, Abilities +2,
Soak +2 and Hardness 2, Damage +2, Rate +0
  • Starmetal - Fate, Damage
  • Jade - Speed, Damage
  • Orachalcum - Defense
  • Soulsteel - Life Drain, Decay
  • Moonsilver - Change, Morph
