Summary: Good take on an alternate perspective
Comment: The Dragon Blooded. Hailed as gods among men, wielders of semi-divine authority, heirs to vast wealth, power, prestige and authority. And, ultimately, second bannana to just about everyone.
This sourcebook is great material for Dragon Blooded NPCs or players alike. It gives a great deal of insight into the strict, austere shadows of the Dynastic Houses and Immaculate Order, and the mixture of power and obligation that such lofty positions entail. The only issue I would take with the book is that of balance. Realistically, the Dragon Blooded command the key strength of superior numbers and peerless levels of social and political power. However, for a group which is supposed to be the weakest of the Exalted, they seem to have an awfully large array of powerful and well-thought-out charms, as well as powerful, unique martial arts styles which seem conspicuously absent from supposedly more powerful types of Exalted. Nevertheless, if these are perceived as problems, then most judicious Storytellers should be able to find ways around them, and I can't say anything bad about the writers' skill at portraying the simultaneous strength and weakness of the legendary Dragon Blooded. Whether you just want more realistic NPC interaction with your non-Blooded group or a foundation for Dragon Blood players, I can certainly recommend this addition.

Summary: this should be fun
Comment: their is no game i like playing more then exalted and no type i like playing as more then dragon blooded.
the idea of having the backing they do is fun but more importantly since you are not a god you can deal with smaller problems and still have them be a challenge. also since dragon blooded are then only exalts that can walk the blessed isle openly, which adds a whole new dimension to the game, less fear and more awe.
their are only two problems with dragon bloooded. you more or less have to only play with other dragon blooded because all the other types of exalted are a lot more powerful then the dragon blooded.
the other problem is i have a feeling that they thought out the DB charms better then the solar charms so in a lot of respects their charms are nastier.
over all it is a great game and i recomend it.

Summary: One of the greatest supplemental books for any system ever!
Comment: First of all Exalted is probably the best thing to come along for pen and paper RPing in a good long while.Particularly, it's the freshest thing to come to the fantasy genre in a good long time. I love White Wolf products, their other games are a change from other good but overplayed systems but this is something really new. The Dragon Blooded Supplement only adds to this. It contains a wealth of information on the realm, the dragon blooded, the immaculate order, and so much more. Though this background info comprises at least half the book, evert page of it is full of new and interesting material, next to nothing from the core Exalted book about the Dragon Blooded is repeated, that's how thorough it is. Furthermore, if you're dealing with intelligent gamers rather than pokemon-style "I want to be the very best" and kill everything people, then Dragon blooded make truly deep and excellent characters with opportunities for most any type of story. Even if your players don't want to play Dragon Blooded, this supplement is worth it for the background info and the detail you can include for Dragon Blooded storyteller characters. I can't reccomend this enough.
