Exalted secret Santa intro
Exalted character #1 - Epsilon
Epsilon was raised in a lunar tribe at the far North of the Creation. The tribe itself was an experiment on social behavior, which supposed that all problems of humanity are caused by denial of animal instincts in human nature.
Epsilon is not an actual name, rather hierarchical number that was assigned to her, based on her innate abilities. She might have not been the best among her "siblings", but she was for sure the most stubborn one.
Once she fell in argument with the tribe leader. To prove her point she climbed the mountain where the giant eagles lived in order to tame one of them. While struggling to get the animal under control Epsilon cut her long braids crafting a leash.
Epsilon came down from this mountain as Zenith Exalted, chosen by the Sun.
Tribal upbringing resulted in low social experience, that is why she seems quite inadequate from time to time. On the other hand she has perfect senses. Her best friend is a giant sentient eagle named Alcvora.
Epsilon’s character is reliable, strict but generous and really stubborn. She is a bit paranoid, always expecting something bad to happen. She believes that failure of anyone in her circle is her own.
She is focused on building a perfect society based on the doctrine taught by her mentor.
Epsilon is above average height; slim, but has some obvious muscles. Her dark hair is decorated with feathers. All of her facial features are a bit heavy. She prefers simple functional clothing, that she rarely changes.
Exalted character #2 - Swan Feather Ledaal
Kissed by the element they said. Being born with hair as white as clouds in summer sky, everyone was sure little Swan Feather Ledaal is destined for second breath. That is why from early years she was provided with best tutors possible and quickly proved to be gifted in the arts of war, especially exceeding in wielding a sword. As a descendant of Ledaal, Swan was raised a zealous follower of Immaculate faith, hoping to join the Wild Hunt one day. Her mother, Grace of Dancing Heron Ledaal, was proud of her daughter. That is why she overlooked some of Swan's less desirable interest for arts and crafts.
Through the school years Swan talent for fencing grew even stronger, as she was able to easily bit most of her class mates, including some of those, who were lucky to exalt. However her own exaltation didn't seem to rush. By the age of 14 her once supportive mother barely looked her way. Swan grew desperate for praises she used to receive so often, engaging in more unnecessary fights. During one of the school fights with exalted dragonblooded, she have noticed the fascination in non-exalted kids' eyes, that follow her fight. For all the unlucky ones, she was a living testament that they are still capable or worth of anything. Swan started to pay more attention to the spectators of her fights. Soon she learned simple truth - any dynast kid like to be a dragonblooded exalted, but no one like dragonblooded exalts. As attention and love was all she wanted - Swan Feather embraced the role of the champion for all the non-exalts.
AT around 19 years Swan Feather were called back home to assist her mother. One of the regions under their family reign were suffering of the severe draught, the problem could be boiled down to the fact, that local gods were struggling to assist citizens in the times of need, as they were weekend with extended draught, and unfortunately next praying season were nowhere near. Despite her immaculate faith upbringing, Swan decided to act. She envisioned statue of City guardians engraved in the cliff overlooking the main square that will be only visible when sun is in zenith, and when you are kneeling. There is nothing suspicious about beggar kneeling on the street under the angry sun, she decided.
With the sunset Swan left the mansion and get to work. She's been working all night, with no rest, and despite all the odds completed the work in time. When the first rays of sun lit carved surface she exalted as a chosen of Sun.
Now Swan is roaming creation as one of the leaders of the small mercenary band. Trying to come to piece with her own nature, and finding a new purpose in life.
Appearance Swan wears various clothes, however there are certain distinguish elements she gravitates too: 1. Electric blue colour 2. Statement earrings 3. Asymmetrical or unusual cuts.
Swans weapon of choice two light swords named Sunlit Talon and Bloodsoaked Talon.
Swan is a master swardswoman. She knows it, she is proud of it.... And she is arrogant about it. With most of the foes she will start a fight holding a sword with her left hand. She will switch it to right hand, when the oponnent is worthy. Her second sword is only pulled out of elsewhere when the fight is genuinely exciting.
Swans Anima is crown made out of swords. When she is in a middle of fight (or stone carving) and hold her swords, essence flowing to the sword tip presents as a wing of swords along her arm. One for each sword equipped.
