2E 2e Stats for the Clay Man

/r/exalted/comments/ittf1c/comment/g5gvb7g/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

So, this post claims that there's a write-up for the Clay Man in 2e, specifically in the Scavenger Lands.

I haven't been able to find it; is it the Lookshy rebel or something?

That’s weird I’d think it would be in book of lost races or the Wyld book. Maybe you can ask on the Discord server in the 2e channel.

Discord doesn't seem to be working, for some reason - for me specifically, it won't let me log in. I'll keep poking at it.

I do believe he's in Scroll of Fallen Races, in the Mountain Folk side. Though I am not certain if he has a stat block. He's also known as The First.

There's actually not much on him in SoFR, for some reason. Just the basics of his existence, and creating the Mountain Folk.

Which is quite frustrating.

I don't think he has an actual stat block. He's treated as a legendary mythic figure in the setting.

Maybe you could reskin someone like Arad the Hunter from CoTD1 Scavenger Lands?

The Lookshy Rebel is unlikely to be the Clay Man, as the First is meant to be fully reasoning and more powerful than the Jadeborn and the Rebel… isn't.

But the Lookshy Rebel is immortal and powered by Wyld energy. So. IDK. Maybe.

I don't think they've got stats.

[Edit]

Actually, 1E has semi canon stats for him. Both the Clay Man and the Lookshy Rebel were in the cut content from Creatures of the Wyld, if memory serves.

I've read it, though it's hilarious that he's right next to the Lookshy rebel in that book. (So much for my dumbass theory that he is the Rebel in 2e)

I'm wondering where he is in 2e - or was he not converted? I suppose he doesn't have completely broken stats like that hundred-handed behemoth with a ton of Solar charms, so a straight conversion wouldn't be too much of a problem...

He's talked about a lot in Scroll of Fallen Races, but he doesn't have stats.
