===Other Exalted=== There are three other types of Exalted, with their own processes of creation and circulation. ====Abyssals==== The Abyssal Exalted are twisted Solar Exaltations, captured by the Deathlords and corrupted within a Monstrance of Celestial Portion. Commonly referred to as Deathknights, they are Exalted champions of the Deathlords and their Neverborn masters. They have only recently appeared, but they seem to be dark reflections of the returned Solar Exalted, with dark mockeries of the Solars' Caste Marks, Animas and even Charms. '''Day Caste''' The counterparts to the Solar Night Caste, the Day Caste of the Abyssal Exalted are usually exalted from the best spies, assassins, and thieves Creation has to offer. In the Underworld the Day Caste Abyssals serve as silent assassins and enforcers of the law, bringing the darkness of the Underworld to every corner of Creation. '''Daybreak Caste''' The Daybreak Caste are most commonly Exalted from scholars, and artisans––those who are dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge and education. The Daybreak Caste are best known for their powerful dominion over the realms of necromancy, necrosurgery and magic. Since the Abyssals are the only Exalted with natural access to the highest circle of necromancy (The Void Circle), many of the greatest necromancers in the Underworld are Daybreak Castes, even though necromancy was discovered by Twilight Caste Solars. '''Dusk Caste''' The counterparts to the Solar Dawn Caste, the Dusk Caste of is filled with the soldiers, generals, and martial champions of the Neverborn. Some of the Underworld's greatest warriors herald from their ranks, as Dusk Caste essence shards are given only to warriors. Even so, a warrior can take many forms ranging from war veterans to gang leaders. '''Midnight Caste''' The counterparts to the Solar Zenith Caste, the Midnight Caste are Priest-kings, prophets and mystics. '''Moonshadow Caste''' The counterparts to the Solar Eclipse Caste, the Moonshadow Caste are most commonly Exalted from bureaucrats, diplomats, and couriers - those who excel at social interaction. Where the other Abyssals represent mastery over Combat, Performance, Sorcery, and Stealth, the Moonshadow Caste Abyssals are masters of negotiation and deal-making. Where a Dusk Caste might use his sword to defeat an army on the battlefield, a Moonshadow will use his mastery of words to defeat a nation in its courts. ====Alchemicals==== The Alchemical Exalted are built and granted power by their fellow Autochthonians, according to the ancient plans of Autochthon. Native to the machine world of Autochthonia, they are champions of industry and technology. The Alchemical Exalted have artificial bodies composed of the various Magical Metals, from which they derive their Castes. '''Adamant Caste''' The Adamant Caste of the Alchemical Exalted are only known in rumor and legend, as this Caste is only theoretical - at least as far as mainstream Autochthonian society knows. The nomads of the Reaches, however, know the legends are true. The Adamant Caste report directly to the Divine Ministers, and are tasked with overseeing the Eight Nations and their Alchemical Champions. '''Jade Caste''' The Jade Caste interact with mortals daily on an egalitarian footing. They are the public face of the Alchemicals and inspire laborers to work harder or rally fighters to defend the cities of Autochthonia. '''Moonsilver Caste''' The Moonsilver Caste of the Alchemical Exalted are the secret agents, scouts and assassins of Autochthonian society. They are adept at disguise, deception and camouflage, serving the greater truth, and use their martial prowess and agility to strike down the enemies of state and god. They often delay the transitional growth that comes from increasing their Essence to continue to serve adequately in their duties, and when they do, they often turn their attentions to the threats that come from beyond their cities. '''Orichalcum Caste''' The Orichalcum Caste of the Alchemical Exalted define themselves as the leaders and sages of Autochthonia. Being stronger, smarter and bolder than mortals, these exalts serve as bright examples of inspiration, vision and progress. Members of the Orichalcum Caste are forceful, convincing and inspiring, but they are not always likeable or approachable as they can display arrogance or find themselves at philosophical odds with others. '''Soulsteel Caste''' The Soulsteel Caste of the Alchemical Exalted are the problem-solvers and enforcers of Autochthonian society. They are relentless in battle, never slowing or stopping, and their persistence is legendary. They are the Exalts who watch over Autochthonia, yet even the most brutal of these Sentinels give suspected criminals the opportunity to surrender peacefully. '''Starmetal Caste''' The Starmetal Caste of the Alchemical Exalted lead like the Orichalcum Caste do, but they work behind the scenes while the Orichalcum Caste are recognizable figureheads. They are subtle and pragmatic, always planning ahead for contingencies and taking minimalist approaches to how they deal with others, and even how they fight. ====Infernals==== The Infernal Exalted are Solar Exaltations tainted to the purposes of the mad Yozis, imbued with the strength and the madness of a demon during the Exaltation process. The term Green Sun Prince is used to refer to mortals who have agreed to serve the yozi and received one of the Solar Exaltations which have been tainted by the Yozis. '''Defiler Caste''' The members of the Defiler Caste are sages and sorcerers. They serve the brilliant and judgmental She Who Lives In Her Name, who embodies the hierarchy and law of the demon realm. They possess brilliant insight and an unparalleled ability to directly influence reality with their wills, but aren't especially gifted at healing or teaching. '''Fiend Caste''' The members of the Fiend Caste are diplomats and corruptors. They serve the manipulative and adversarial Ebon Dragon, who embodies the darkness of the demon realm. They're extremely adept at manipulation, deception, and crippling opponents, but are bad at honest persuasion. '''Malefactor Caste''' The members of the Malefactor Caste are preachers and leaders. They serve the hypocritical and domineering Cecelyne, who embodies the endless desert surrounding Malfeas. They tend to be capricious, abusive fascists. '''Scourge Caste''' The members of the Scourge Caste are spies and assassins. They serve the insane and cataclysmic Adorjan, who embodies the scouring silent wind of the demon realm. Ironically, the members of this cast tend towards tremendous speed and little stealth capability. '''Slayer Caste''' The members of the Slayer Caste are soldiers and generals. They serve the agonized and berserk daemon king Malfeas, who embodies the demon realm itself. As a result of Malfeas' influence, however, the Green Sun Princes of this caste are sadistic, unstoppable juggernauts more often than generals.
