==Virtues==

* '''Major:''' Ambition - Build a Warstrider Worthy of The First Age
If Warstriders are going to return to glory on the field of battle, there needs to be a glorious exemplar, a masterwork - and Koa-Mika is going to be the man to make it!

* '''Minor:''' Wonder
Koa-Mika has always been filled with a burning curiosity and wanderlust. He's seen more amazing and terrible things than ten normal men, and each wonder only made him hungry for more.

==Intimacies==

* '''Major:''' It's time to rebuild the world, and the best place to start is our little island. (Principle of Ambition)
''The world has fallen so very far from the heights of the First Age. People are wallowing in the dirt, sliding farther from glory every day. But no farther - today we start to rise.''

* '''Minor:''' Marama is an amazing young woman, and I can't wait to see how she grows up. (Tie of Wonder [Love])
''Marama, Koa-Mika's daughter with Captain Peleps Liriope, lives with him on Iron Island. He dotes on her, and lives for seeing her delight at the wonder in the world.

* '''Minor:''' Scavengers are parasites - if they won't sell to me. (Tie of Ambition [Hatred])
''Priceless artifacts and magitech are scavenged all the time from the western ruins, scattered to the winds for coin. If that gear was collected and studied, maybe we could start crawling out of this pit we're all in.

=EXALT=
''Exigent of Warstriders''

'''Exalt Milestone:''' At the end of the session, Koa-Mika gains an Exalt milestone if he created something that adds to his prestige as a craftsman, or if he increased public awareness of Warstriders through heroic deeds.

* '''Soul of Iron and Jade'''
The heart of Koa-Mika's Exigence is the warstrider Still Smoldering Ashes. It is bonded to his soul and it cannot be stolen or used by anyone else. He can summon it from anywhere for 2 motes, donning it as a simple action.

* '''Artifact-Kin'''
Koa-Mika can see and speak to the spirits of all artifacts, allowing him to discern their purpose, learn about their history, and both use and repair them without training or instructions.

'''Resonances:''' Koa-Mika is resonant with any artifact with the Heavy, Enormous, or Legendary Size tags.

===ANIMA EFFECTS===

* '''Giant Soul''' (Passive)
Extras cannot deal damage to the Exigent. Any damage rolls they would make on Step 7 generate 0 successes. Battle groups subtract the Exigent's Essence from their damage on Step 7. 

* '''God-King of all Armors''' (Active)
Koa's allies add his (Essence +1) to their Soak and ignore mobility penalties while wearing armor. Soak from non-armor sources are unaffected.

* '''The Phoenix Rises Again!''' (Iconic)
Koa calls on the full power of Still Smoldering Ashes, temporarily restoring it to it's awesome true form - ''Ascendant Nova Phoenix,'' the legendary Royal Warstrider of legend. (Spend 10 Anima. Stats and powers to be determined.)

==The Great Curse==

'''Incitement'''
* Someone acts against her Major Intimacy.
* Someone acts against her Major Virtue. 
*describe other triggers 

When (character) succumbs to the curse, (describe great curse manifestation)

'''Eruptions''' (pg.90-91)
* Throne Toppling Mood
* Shrine Scorning Tirade
* Heaven Challenging Thunder
* Luxurious Hoarding Tendency
* Tyrannous Hell Presence

=MERITS=

* '''Resources''' (Primary)
Koa has control of The Giant's Anvil, a partially functional Forge-Cathedral, hidden beneath the dormant volcano Rangitoto. From here, he is able to continue his Warstrider research and development - and also forge vast quantities of arms and armor to fund said research. Much of this money is shared with the Paluans as well, so Koa doesn't have the staggering wealth control of such a wonder would imply - but he's still well off.


* '''Artifact''' (Secondary)
The Universal Armament Matrix is a wonder of Koa's own design, a harness of jade and moonsilver that applies an metamorphic essence field that resonates with the wielder's inherent frame of...

Look, when you're wearing the UAM, ''any'' weapon or shield you're carrying works better - and it changes size to work at whatever size you're at. Very handy when you can go from 7 feet to 70 at short notice.


* '''Ally''' (Tertiary)
Two-Ton Hammer, the God of Warstriders, was profoundly diminished by creation of the Exigence. What remains of his puissance forms the power core of Still Smoldering Ashes, though he also manifests as a cranky old man who loiters around the island shaking his fists at clouds. He has no magical power outside the core, though his knowledge of Artifacts is deep.
