So we are heavy on magical characters.  Not sure we have any sort of techy character or face yet?


I think with all of the actresses it sounds like most of us will have some level of face. Mika's going to be fairly skilled in a bunch of them, but she's mostly very good at intimidation right now.

Also, can someone who's more knowledgeable about the system give any gear recommendations? I like the idea of heavy weapons for a ranged option if it's possible, machine pistols in case those are too much, but it's been a while since I last played shadowrun and I don't remember what's on the list of things everyone should have

Muse

ack! Wil fix.  ^_^;; 

She's almost done. I have seven more points and a coupel of thousand NY left to spend. 

She's tech based, htouhg not nessicarily a breaking and entering style girl.

Do we get the bonus nuyen for the In Debt quality, or is it assumed that it's all been spent? And do we get the BPs for purchasing it, but they don't count toward the normal -35 point limit, or no BPs at all? Also, what level would you like it at?

Would it help if I swapped the character to more Street Samurai?
It's all good, and it's all in fun.  Now get in the pit and try to love someone.

On second thought, retracting interest. Probably don't want to try and throw myself into multiple SR games at once. :x
ONs and OFFs be here: https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=64984.0

If I'm needed to post somewhere, PLEASE PM me about it. Sometimes I lose track of threads and need to be reminded about things.

Muse

Aw! I wanted to be in two games with Latooni!  *pouts*

See you on the other end, then.  :)

Andy, if it's just about adept versus tech ased bad ass, I'm doing a tech based bad ass.  :)

I think some machine guns are doable by the rules if you want a heavy weapon.  Otherwise there is the quality Restricted Gear if you want something higher than 12.  Though heavy weapons probably aren't ideal for most situations.

You get the bonus nuyen and BP, they just don't count against the normal -35 limit.  I'd prefer a higher level, 20-30 BP, but if a person only wants to take 5 that is fine.

I'm not sure it is a huge difference, I think that the characters will have somewhat different specialities.

Ah, okay.  Thanks for letting me know. 

KirbysFolly

Okay, here's the character sheet as it currently stands. Feel free to criticize it, it's been a long time since I've played Shadowrun, and I may have missed the specific tone for this game. I'm okay with changing it, if needed.  :-)

Jaded

Where was the sheet?  Not sure if I missed it somewhere. 

KirbysFolly

Can we pretend I didn't forget to actually paste the URL here as I was in a hurry to get to bed?

I think I'll go with a lighter gun even though it is possible.

Also, very good to know about the BP since it makes sense for my character to have maximum debt.

Jaded

She seems fine from a quick glance KirbysFolly, I'll try to look at her more indepth later.

I am still interested I will give a concept when I get off work.
I heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Life seems harsh, and cruel. Says he feels all alone in threatening world. Doctor says: "Treatment is simple. The great clown - Pagliacci - is in town. Go see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. "But doctor..." he says "I am Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains.



Rorschach's Journal. October 12th, 1985: Dog carcass in alley this morning, tire tread on burst stomach. This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "Save us!"... and I'll whisper "no."
