Terrestrial martial arts supplement the power of ordinary techniques, using Essence channeling techniques to fortify blocks, grapples and other martial arts move.
Celestial martial arts take on a more transcendent aspect. By focusing and channeling the flow of Essence they are able to change their fighting technique by in some way changing what they are albeit temporarily. Hence with a Celestial Form Charm they alter their Essence so that they take on some aspect of what the style emulates.
The difference between Celestial and Sidereal martial arts is that Sidereals become something that a dimension of existence takes after. These styles are truly transcendent and permanently alter what the martial artist is.
It's a dark and frosty night. The moon is full and I walked across a graveyard. It's time to start my blog. This is principally a place to put up all my writing about Exalted. I'll also be writing short stories, prose poetry, bitching about what I think is wrong with the world (starting with this damn template) and anything else of interest. 19/1/11

The first section is basically my take on Exalted. Right now I'm just copying up my notes so everything's very raw while I put down my ideas. I'll work on editing everything and making it more coherent later. As a result things will contradict the in game canon and even be self contradictory especially since not all my notes are copied in chronological order. They've been typed up without editing to remain as close as possible to my original vision.
