Exalted characters <strong>using unnatural command of social combat to make servants and converts will be seen as using supernatural power to do so and will likely attract negative attention. </strong><br/><br/>In any case, these rules are not what one uses to convince others where to go for dinner.<br/><br/>Social combat can be used for small matters—intimidating the warden at a bridge may be minor but an essential use of a persuasive character’s silver tongue. However, social combat should never be used for trivial situations or casual debate. If it is used in an argument over clothing, that argument<br/>should figure prominently in some larger matter or depict a character who is an unrelenting social bully.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Maybe you should point that to the other groups you are playing in?
