I've got a game idea based on Exalted vs. the World of Darkness (which I wrote about here), and I want to write it down before I forget it.
- Part One
The PCs are Dragon-Blooded, dealing with the modern world. After the Week of Nightmares, the PCs are brought together by family elders and told the that the world might be ending and they need to fix it. So they scour the world for clues, traveling and getting into adventures, and eventually it leads them to a small island off the coast of Hong Kong and they talk to Ti Feng, last of the Golden Children. He tells them about the true history of the world, about the Exalted and the downfall of Creation, and about the disappearance of the Exalted and waning of Essence.
He also tells them about the vault where the Celestial Godsparks are locked away, so the PCs search it out and eventually travel to Tibet, to what once was Meru, fight their way past the ancient guardians and solve the ancient riddles, and crack open the Black Vault. - Part Two
The PCs are elder Celestial Exalted in the First Age, when the Sidereals came to the Solars and said, "You are grossly swollen with hubris and your arrogance will destroy Creation. You must stop," and the Solars answered, "Who's going to make us, you?" and the Sidereals said, "...actually, yes."
Cue romance and tragedy and civil war and the end of the world, culminating in the deaths of almost all the Exalted, the world being overrun by the Wyld and reshaped into a sphere to lock the Wyld away, the bringing down of the Gauntlet and the separation of the world into physical and spiritual halves, and the sealing away of the Godsparks in the black vault. - Part Three
The PCs are Celestial Exalted in the modern world, the reincarnations of the characters from part two. They exalt, find each other, have the secret history of the world explained by the PCs from part one and their fragmentary memories, and then go on a roaring rampage of revenge against elder vampires, Black Spiral Dancers, Nephandi, the forces of Oblivion, Marauders, the Yama Kings, and everything else in the way. They shine brightly, kick ass, and save the world.
And glorious were the deeds of the Exalted. 🔆🌑✨
This would take years to run through, but I think it would be amazing.
