I mean... They're going into empire territory. Broadwalk etc. isn't their turf IIRC, so I doubt they're going there because they have to, and simultaneously I doubt any normal PoC, or anyone who doesn't fit into their worldview, wants to be in empire territory.the only black people that go into empire territory are criminals and rapists looking to cause trouble.
Maybe like, tourists that don't know any better."Looking to cause trouble" is about the only reason I can imagine anyone wanting to go into empire territory,
Eh. I dont think people deserve to get beaten to death for walking into the "wrong" part of town. Realistic or unrealistic that's the ideology they are championing.I mean...

"Looking to cause trouble" is about the only reason I can imagine anyone wanting to go into empire territory, so Taylor only encountering PoC with ill-intent makes sense.
Hell, even PoC criminals/rapists would probably just be better off not going into empire territory as well, even if a good chunk of rich people live there, simply because the consequences of getting caught could potentially be lethal.
This comes back to the "vigilante justice" thing I talked about earlier: The major motivation HAS to be hate, because little else makes sense from a risk/reward standpoint.
A lot of the arguments and talking points have pretty much been dredged up directly from 4 chan. I see a lot of the same things being talked about on /b/ Jewish conspiracies, crime statistics, accusations of the government and news media being corrupt...This is not "virtue signaling" or "white people evil oppressors" reactionary commentary, this is legit concern that a group who's core tactics involve regular hate crimes and nazi ideology is being presented as basically 4-chan shitters in a neighborhood watch and all their biases are being shown as correct. With the accusations of hate crimes being, so far, all sensationalized by the news and just violent vigilantism
Maybe, but those are generally contained in the Broadwalk. Not that I'd assume BB has much tourism to begin with, given how dead the place is and what with the struggling economy. I think someone actually made a map about what gang has what territory (PRT included), but I can't find it for the life of me.
And I'm not saying anything against that. I am saying, however, that people generally don't want to get beaten to death, and thus the amount of people walking into the wrong part of town will probably be reduced to PoC people who have to go there to achieve whatever objective they are pursuing. The only thing I can think of that you can't get anywhere else in the bay is either direct access to the Medhall Building (and I do mean direct, since I doubt it's the only pharmacy in town that'd have the relevant products) or to bash the rank-and-file fash.Eh. I dont think people deserve to get beaten to death for walking into the "wrong" part of town. Realistic or unrealistic that's the ideology they are championing.
My guess would be a Malfeas Charm. Green Fire, Bronze Skin, that sort of stuff. Maybe even the full-on Shintai.
Devil tyrant avatar Shintai would be siiiick.My guess would be a Malfeas Charm. Green Fire, Bronze Skin, that sort of stuff. Maybe even the full-on Shintai.
I feel so tempted, but I won'tSo now that everyone is done vomiting up their 'opinions' of right, wrong and what justices is. Do someone have a guess at how lungs charm will work? Did I miss a description somewhere or is it still unknown?
Unfortunately, Taylor would need By Rage Recast first, that's the Charm that actually gives you the library of Mutations that manifest when your Anima flares. Devil-Tyrant Avatar Shintai just makes all of the mutations manifest at once. Wait, does she even have an Anima? I don't think we've seen it yet, outside of maybe with Newter, but without one BRR is pretty much unusable without DTAS, maybe that's why she's having trouble making it do anything?

The only Charm that I can think of to turn someone into an Exalt would be a Martial Arts Charm from the Sidereal Charcoal March of Spiders Style. It's called Pattern Spider Touch, and is the penultimate Charm in the style. The text for it is long, but to summarize: Anyone you strike with this unarmed attack can be transformed into any non-Primordial creature, or unmake them utterly.Are there any racist Charms?
Like say you are at a party and your rival is putting the moves on the girl you like, so you use the Flaming Chicken Eggshell Shuffle Charm and punch your rival when nobody is looking to turn them into a Dragonblooded?
Maybe a Sidereal Charm that makes the reality spiders swap the threads that make a target character's ancestral lines?
This might be why Lung's power is misbehaving, actually. What if Lung's Charm is a racist? It dislikes Solars and is wriggling around on the stat-sheet to avoid being sullied by one using it.
...wow that brainwashing is really goddamn effective.You could have given him the thing he most wanted in all the world, and instead chose to fuck him over. You deserve this.
But thinks Rachel should die in a hole for trying to stop dog fighting.Fuck your brain anyway. It's not as if Rachel is useful to you, or anything but a detriment to society as a whole. But nooooo, you still chose her over getting freaking Hookwolf as a minion, because apparently human life has intrinsic value. Ugh. You suck so much.
This does promise to be quite the trip!Ok so we have now gone to defending dog fighting and equating it to the cruelty of agricultural practices... damn at this point am reading more out of morbid curiosity on how far the author is gonna push cause this is fucking wild!
Also if you wanna know why her arguments are even more stupid than they seem google what a "bait dog" is.
I think you might be confusing the complete lack of caring about others feelings for charisma?So… does solar exaltation make you a sociopath? Because I could legit see this Taylor tagging along with the S9 just so she could copy their powers.
I think she's leaning on her manipulation harder than it is healthy

...You can't do it. You just can't. When you set out to gather soul prices, you wanted to be Morally Ambiguous Santa Claus. There's no moral ambiguity to be had here. You'll have to solve the Hookwolf situation the other way.
Crossing the line over to full blown supervillain territory will have to be deferred for another day.Oh thank fuck. Personally I like the fact that this Taylor matches canon attitudes of Taylor befriending and abandoning all sorts of people as needed for her goals, but a line really needed to be drawn somewhere.
I am very happy she didn't betray Rachel.

You don't have to be an Exalt to learn Terrestrial Martial Arts. Just having Awakened Essence will do that trick.Oh I almost forgot. Does anyone more familiar with Exalt know if Taylor's Spirit-Tied Pet allows Bubbles to learn her martial arts? I wanna know if we're getting a Mantis Style Doggo.
