* What on earth do Dragon-Blooded map to in ''[[
** They map to the Kuei-Jin/Kindred of the East (ten thousand immortals, references to the empress and the dragon).
*** So they now have the opposite problem of Alchemicals, what with nWoD dropping the concept of Western/Eastern supernaturals in favor of an assumption that they work more or less the same everywhere, with only minor variations compared to the previous East/West gulf.
*** Well, the Dragon-blooded are sort of minor Exalted in comparison to the big boys. You could make an admittedly shaky argument that the minor splats(ghouls, sleepwalkers, ensorcelled etc.) are the Dragon-blooded equivalent. They certainly have the same role socially, being a back-up/servant/helper/etc. caste. The only problem with that theory is that minor splats in [[N Wo D]] are far, far less powerful than major splats, whereas Dragon-blooded are at least competitive with Celestial Exalted.
*** ''[[
****** I apologize for the error. I'm honestly not that familiar with oWoD.
**** They don't map to anything in nWoD because it was oWoD that had connections to Exalted. They mapped to the legendary uncorrupted form of the Kuei-Jin.

** As in why isn't everyone else capable? Or as in why are they capable of violating the 3 laws (which they probably wrote)?
*** [[Word of God]] says that part is baffling to them to, and that they [[Canon
*** There ''might'' be an explanation for it: Since the primordial of time was killed, thus creating a linear time line for Creation, However, Hell is made up of the body of Malfeas, meaning it might exist out of the normal space-time of creation; hence, time travel is possible in Malfeas. Granted, I could be pretty wrong, but it's the only answer I can think of.
Line 53:
*** So he ''could'' have told them when he first noticed, but now it's too late if he doesn't want to get forged into starmetal? Wonderful.
* Linguistics. One dot gives you one extra language group, two dots gives you two extra language groups, three dots gives you three, etc. Since higher dots cost more experience, this means learning a second language makes it harder to learn your third or fourth, while pretty much any linguist will tell you the second language is always the hardest, not the easiest. Neither [[Old World of Darkness
** Also, how the hell did the Blessed Isle end up with two languages divided by social strata?
*** I'm actually pretty sure that was deliberate.
