Complications
---
Dreams of the First Age, dawn of the new age - Xiao is learning the truth behind Creation's First Age here on earth, and He has also taken it upon himself to teach the Exalted of Earth-409 and Xeron about what they have become.
Enemies - Dr. Azoth, Eneru, First & Forsaken Lion, Hades, Wotan
Lawgiver of the Unconquered Sun - Xiao is a solar exalt, one of the chosen champions of Creations Gods. although far from home, he has his duties to perform, and enemies even here with memories of the First Age. also, Solars don't really do "Subtle".
Phenom & Usako - Xiao is in a three way marriage with these two women whom he loves with all his heart, even if he's the one who has to deal with the wake of their own petty schemes
Red Rage of Compassion - as an exalt, Xiao suffers from the great curse. in his case, he is moved to great anger when he sees innocents suffer and cannot effectively intervene. and when he gives into that rage, he lashes out at the most direct cause with no regard for his own safety, or that of his freinds.
Fish out of Water - Xiao has an understanding of earth, but some of our ways are still confusing, and is easily flustered when it comes to sex.
God of the Pantheon - Xiao is a highly visible member of this contraversial and sometimes supervillainous cult, to help them understand the responsibilities of their 'godhood'. for their part, they like dropping problems in the lap of their 'sherrif', such as dealing with 'Problem gods'
Sapphire Guard - Xiao's former freinds and comrades from Creation, who had rejected Xiao as Anathema, and while some of them are starting to be convinced otherwise, they remin a thorn in his side
costs
abilities 58 + combat 52 + saves 11 + skills 17/68 + feats 29 + powers 69 - drawback 3 = 238 pts

Born to the imperial House of Cathak, Xiao Lon was among the
Five Exalted brought to Earth by Navigatrix in 2009, and has completed his education at the Claremont Academy, and now sets foot into a strange and terrible world a nigh-lawful stupid swordsman, and by the standards of creation, a sexual deviant (what with being a monogamous heterosexual). He's also still (mostly) a follower of the anti-solar propoganda of his homeland, and is utterly convinced he'll become a baby-eating, soul raping monster (as such, he intends to do the most good in what time he has left, to both redeem his family's honor, and make up for being Anathema). one of the reasons he has come to Emerald is in hopes of finding his Lunar Mate and True love, Usako, Princess of A Thousand Enemies, who has set up shop there as a theif, con artist, and member of the Pantheon.

regarding the benefit, i'm not really sure what it does, other than that mystical beings and creatures treat Xiao with some respect.
oh, and this is Usako:

EDIT 1: so, with Crinos' blessing, I went back and overhauled Xiao. of particular note is the Overwhelming prescence feat. basicly, Xiao's anima banner is such that when he turns it on, anybody within 75 feet has to mace a DC 23 will save or suffer a -1 to interaction checks vs him for every 2 points they fail by (up to a maximum penalty of -6)

EDIT 2: changed some points around, added improved demoralize, upped the teleport to +5, and added a flurry attack for the solar sabre

EDIT 3: rebuilt the Solar Sabre, added The AP of "
god spear". Other AP's will follow as I build up the Solar Sabre, and adjust Xiao's combat ability

EDIT 4: traded in the attack specialization so i can get 4 ranks of melee,. Xiao can now use his Melee-based APs without incident, such as his shiny new
Megaton Hammer 
EDIT 5: it may be my taking advantage of the situation, but really, i've described xiao lighting up often enough that he should have it anyway. also added phenom to his complications.

EDIT 6: okay, some extensive revisions yet again, such as getting penetrating on his main attack, olding his other movement powers into an AP of flash step, his anima effect is now a move action (and uncontrolled, since it's supposed to go off once he starts using his powers or getting emotional), and upping his con to 26. as for Xiao's healing, i'm not sure if i should leave it at +10 as written, bring it down to +6 afford another extra (plus 2 feats), +5 for two extras, or get my various extras as AP's

EDIT 7: decided to spend that point on a second rank of evasion, and remembered to include my expenditure towards the Base

Edit 8: Xiao's anima banner is now a free action (goes off whenever he uses his powers, overwhelming prescence, or he gets particularly emotional), he can now use moving feint with his teleport, and that superstrength stunt i did in the Phenom adventure is now part of his power array, as Xiao defaults to that once in the red rage

edit 9: moved a point around to add 2 ranks to the solar sabre's penetrating, and added an AP to fit my description of some of xiao's strikes as a semi-psionic attack (IE: they feel the blow, but it does no physical damage)

edit 10. the solar sabre is now penetrating as originally intended, and I fixed an error in my math

edit 11: edit 11. banking the point for now, and updated xiao's complications as hades and psimon are now recognized, and Xiao is starting to accept the rights and responsibilities that come with being a solar

edit 12: added 4 ranks gather info and well-informed, and a mental link to Usako (who gains the contacts & well-informed feats plus the mental link)to represent having had her memories added to his.

edit 13: Xiao now has well-informed

Edit 14: added Xiao ability to sense Essence/mana/chi/etc., as per the Chi sense power on page 10 of Mecha & manga

edit 15: added the invincible iron whilwind attack Xiao used vs PSI's combined roster, and tweaked the healing charm down to +7 so xiao can heal with a standard action instead of full

edit 16: upped Xiao's DEF by 2 points, making him PL 11 on defense

Edit 17: okay, so, first i brought xiao's offense to +11, and added the lunar rabbit form. then, i took out an adavance on the involuntary transformation drawback to pay for upgrading Xiao's attacks to +11. future XP will go to buying off the drawback.

Edit 18: upped will save by 2

Edit 19: first, i used the 3 xp and with my old attack focus feats to raise my base attack bonus to +10. then, realizing I had the points to do it, I folded most of Xiao's attack powers into the weapon summoning variable power, which lets me conjure any weapon-based power with a cost of 3 pp or less, with a PL cap of 11 melee, 12 ranged.

edit 20: bought ritualist

Edit 21: did some points swapping, trading out the 'immunity to summoned weapons' and 'solar might' feats to buy two ranks teleport. the speed/leaping ap and up the wall feat were traded to buy a rank of flight. with the new xp, i raised the will save to +10, raised attack to a flat +11, and traded in the point of attack focus to give Xiao the benefit of being part of the Pantheon

edit 22: sacrificed flight, two ranks of teleport and the unused moving feint feat to buy off the limits on my teleport, enabling Xiao to travel 5 miles in a full round action. with my two xp, i bought the change velocity feat for the teleport, and acrobatic bluff

edit 24:upped the teleport to +6, added moving feint and defensive attack

edit 25: apparently my points hve been off at some point, so i can only afford the Warstrider AP this go around. removed Ozai and snowfklame from complications, replaced them with Eneru and Wotan due to actually being in-game problems xiao now has to deal with.

edit 26: decided to cash in those points after all, with 6 points and dodge going towards a proper combat value of 14. the other 3 points going towards wisdom, with 1 point from the will save going to wis to make it an even 20. i'm keeping the will save at +10, so that equals... 6 points to bank

edit 27: removed warstrider as its been destroyed, added the means to see through disguises (this includes morph/shapeshift). also corrected some more accounting errors, leaving me with 12 points in the bank

Edit 28: upped the CON by 4, giving xiao a +2/-2 Tradeoff on defense/toughness, mostly because Xiao's been consistently tagged by things that can one-shot his prior +8 toughness. Upped ATK by 1, and reworked his weapon summoning into a more comprehensive for almost all of his solar charms, meaning xiao can finally heal himself. I've also added redirect, wealth and a rank of morph (xiao can now change his gender at will). complications-wise i did some housecleaning, bringing phenom and usako together, and adding the pantheon, exalted of earth and sapphire guard to the list
