Night Caste
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Night Caste is one of five castes of the Solar Exalted. First detailed in White Wolf's Exalted (ISBN 1-56504-623-4), and later expanded upon in its own supplement Caste Book: Night (ISBN 1-58846-662-0), the Night Caste is filled with those who favor cunning, wit, and skill over raw power. The other four castes are Dawn, Zenith, Twilight, and Eclipse.
[edit] Caste Mark
All Solar Exalted are marked on their forehead with a symbol representing their caste, called a "caste mark". The mark is normally invisible, but once the Exalted begins spending Essence, the magical building-block of Creation, the caste mark glows brightly to the extent that even covering it with layers of cloth will not hide the glory of the Unconquered Sun.
The mark of the Night Caste is an open circle.
[edit] Abilities
Members of the Night Caste are adept at noticing things other miss and going places they are not wanted. They excel at learning Athletics, Awareness, Dodge, Larceny, and Stealth.
Night Solars can also use their anima to:
- Use their power without a display of power, muting their animas so they will not glow with the sun's light as they sneak
- Mute the senses of those who attempt to track the Solar, and hide the evidence of the Solar's passage

behind closed doors, skulk beneath the earth, even conspire in the land of the dead if you wish — it will avail you not. You may conceal your evil from the light of the Unconquered Sun, but you cannot evade his eyes. |
