===Motivations=== <small>''Motivation is a short description of your character’s primary goal. It’s what drives your character to go out and be a hero, and it is part of the reason the Unconquered Sun chose her for Exaltation. The Chosen of the Sun (and all other Celestial Exalted) cannot have mundane or pedestrian Motivations—by their very nature, Celestial Exalted are epic heroes, and their goals must be similarly epic. Everyone who is Exalted deserves it. Your character might not have been wealthy, powerful or famous, but everyone who is Exalted already had a soul large enough to accept a fragment of divine power. Many other Motivations are possible, and in most series, every character will have a different Motivation. However, every character’s Motivation must be large and must be something that will take many sessions of roleplaying to accomplish. When deciding on a Motivation, consider what in your character’s history or concept pushes her to redefine the world according to her hopes and dreams. A compelling, dramatic Motivation can give you a lot of mileage for roleplay in any series. Your character’s Motivation must answer the question, “Why does she do the things that become the stuff of legend?”''</small> <br> <small>''Taking a significant action that brings your character closer to completing her Motivation can allow her to regain Willpower. Anytime a character spends an entire scene performing some action that directly brings her closer to completing her Motivation, she regains one point of Willpower. For example, if a character’s Motivation is to transform a large nation into a just and fairly run polity, and if she spent a scene judging crimes and administering justice in a city in that nation, she would recover one point of Willpower.''</small>
