Beginning of the End?

[hwango]

Thursday's session of Exalted featured our first character deaths in all of the 19 sessions so far. Unfortunate circumstances and bad luck snowballed into a fight that began while nearly everyone was wounded, low on resources, and/or not prepared for combat. The truly bad part is that we didn't finish the fight that session, either. With 2 characters dead, one unconscious, and two seriously wounded, it's entirely possible that everyone will be killed next session, which throws a serious wrench in the plot. The players are taking it well, though. While no one was happy to see their characters die, they seem interested in new concepts for replacement characters, and at least they went out in style.
