 INTRODUCTION
THIS IS NOT A COMPLETE GAME!
Despite its size, Dreams of the First Age is not
a complete game. It is a supplement for Exalted, a
game about near-divine heroes in a world of high
fantasy. The games core book describes the Solar
Exalted, the rightful rulers of Creation, reborn into
a world that has cast them as Anathema, demonic
despots from a bygone era. This supplement does not
describe the games various core traits or present its
rules for combat. This supplement instead gives in-
depth information about the First Age: its society,
its lands and the rules necessary to create and play
Solar, Lunar, Sidereal and Dragon-Blooded charac-
ters in it. Youll need the Exalted core book for the
basics, though.
included in this boxed set, its possible to play games
set at the height of the Solar Exalteds dominance of
file
Creation, a time of glory and madness.
Chapter One: First Age Character Creation
This chapter provides all the tools necessary to create
ple
characters of all the Ages extant Exalt types: Solar, Lunar,
Sidereal and Dragon-Blooded. In addition to standard
character creation, each section offers alternative rules for
m
creating Exalted much older than the norm (or in the case
of Dragon-Bloods, much younger). This period in the his-
Sa
tory of Creation marked the last time such a broad range of
ages among the Exalt types interacted with one another on
a regular basis.
Chapter Two: The God-Kings Prowess
This section of Lords of Creation devotes itself to new,
high-Essence Charms, just the type that the movers and
shakers of the Deliberative (whether portrayed by the players
or the Storyteller) are likely to spring on the unsuspecting.
Whether you prefer playing Terrestrial or Celestial Exalts,
there are Charms aplenty for each Exalt type (and even more
so for players of Eclipse Caste characters).
Chapter Three: Wonders of the Age
Chapter Three presents a plethora of fantastic new arti-
facts the Princes of the Earth have developed to aid them in
their rule over and protection of Creation. Everything from
sublime cutlery to mighty shaping artifacts can be found
within. There are even a number of new manse powers with
which to customize characters fabulous estates.
Chapter Four: The Mortal
The Exalted are the undisputed masters of the Age, but
every leader needs followers. This chapter is all about the
mortal folk whom the Deliberatives Exalts command (and
wield against one another in their endless intrigues). Be
they mortal soldiers, thaumaturges, blessed races, Mountain
Folk or Dragon Kings, the mortal servants of the Chosen are
covered here in detail.
Chapter Five: The Mighty
And whats an Exalted series without powerful allies
and unbeatable villains to populate it? From the ostensible
master of the Deliberative, the Hierophant, to a young(er)
Chejop Kejak, this chapter provides Exalted of all stripes
with which to people ones games.
