SoF Exalted/CamPL

Campaign Power Level[edit]

This adaptation uses customised Campaign Power Levels (CamPL) which are felt to be more appropriate to both the power of the various types of Exalt, but also reinforces the distinctions between the various tiers. A Heroic Mortal should not expect to be able to take on a Dragon-Blooded in single combat and live, not stacking the deck in their favour in significant ways.

Note that one exception to the usual rules is that the limits on how many APs you can spend on a single Advantage remain in place during play, not only while character generation is going on. This is to preserve the distinction between the tiers, and encourage a broadening of capability rather than hyper-specialisation on one or two things.

See page 16 of the SoF rulebook for more information.

The CamPLs for Exalted are shown in the table below.

Mortal: You are an average denizen of Creation. Good luck.

Expert Mortal: A mortal with a useful skill set.

Heroic/Enlightened Mortal: You are an extremely capable mortal, possibly with a powerful Destiny. You may even be Enlightened, possessing the ability to use Essence to surpass mortal limitations.

God-Blooded: You are the child of a powerful being, most commonly a God of some sort, but possibly an Elemental, Ghost, Demon, or even one of the Exalted.

Dragon-Blooded: You are one of the Terrestrial Exalted, the most common (and weakest) of the Exalted. With teamwork and discipline you can face nearly any threat.

Celestial Exalted: You are one of the most powerful of the Exalted. Your potential is practically limitless, but there are likely a lot of people who want you dead.

*Experienced: Mortals and Celestial Exalted are not the only types of characters that have an Experienced option, they're simply the only ones listed as such. Experienced Heroic/Enlightened Mortals, God-Blooded, and Dragon-Blooded are all made using the next Campaign Power Level.
