After the last run, Miss Johnson had offered to take them out to dinner and said they could call her Shanon.

It was their 12th job working for her unkown employers.  This one was lucky thirteen.

The petite but fit and sexy Chinese girl waved the twin orcs, each girl a skilled gun fu artist they knew from experience with having their drops ambushed, outside and had a seat at their table after offering a bow that tossed her hair.  "Thank you all for sticking with us this far.  You've earned our trust in you, and we're prepared to begin investing a great deal more in your services.  The coming mission will be long and dangerous.  We mean to pay you 50,000 new yen to accept it, and another 250,000 if you complete it.  I know that's enough money to scare any number of veteran shadowrunners, but not only have you proven your worth, this is also a mission that could require multiple stages and take several months.  It should test the full array of your abilities.

"Fortunately, the first part should be fun."

"I've learned to count on you, but I won't tell you the exact objective 'til you've agreed to the mission, but I will tell you some of what it entails.

"I won't tell you exactly what we're looking for 'til I've given you some idea what you're dealing with."

She passed around a set of microCDs marked Briefing A.  Her own trid display ran the CD, showing a 3-D model of a comely red haired human woman.

"There's a party being held at the uptown Hiat, a meet and greet between the local office and the home office.

"This is Miika Shirona, a computer guru who does brilliant things with both security programming and expirmanetal science scenarios.  She's a well known bisexual, so any one of you has a chance of working your wiles on her.

"And this," a new image shimmered into existence, "Is Miika's twin brother Lance.  Minimal combat abilities, but considered by his employers to be an extremely valuable geneticist.  He started his career working on biotechnology, but has since branched out into genetic engineering and cloning.

"We believe he keeps personal back ups of information nessicary to identify something we wish to acquire.  However the data is coded and split between the computers of brother and sister.  We believe the most efficient way to access the nessecary data is to infiltrate the escort service hired to entertain at the party, seduce them, and steal the nessicary information while they sleep."

Hunter

I think we're all in a dry spell.  I can't find a game for the afterlife.

Jefepato

I might give this a try, but I'm unsure what sort of character to play (and it doesn't much matter if no one else is interested)...

Jefepato

Oh, really?

What are the other two playing?

Muse

One's playing a street samurai gal.  The other's looking into a mage, but questioning.

HairyHeretic

You planning to do anything with the WoT game you started Muse, or is it dead?
Hairys Likes, Dislikes, Games n Stuff

Cattle die, kinsmen die
You too one day shall die
I know a thing that will never die
Fair fame of one who has earned it.

Dingo

Hey, I was just thinking that.

Btw, if I can get the horrible muchkin math down, I'll be the Mage. Right now reading the rules on matrix manipulation, that looks also nice.

I imagine it's dead.  My attempts to get the cast i needed kept failing. 

I could give it another shot if people were still intrested.

Muse

Hey, Jefe, I've got three intrested parties now.  You'd make 4. 

Any of our fine new friends intrested?

I'm trying to think of something that would actually be fun to play.  Maybe an adept, I suppose...

EDIT: Or not, because someone already is.

Wow.  There really aren't that many worthwhile character types in this game.  Lemme think on this...

Dingo

Well I have been making an adept Face character, but that doesn't exclude you from doing an adept, or magician, or anything else.

Jefepato

If there are already two adepts, then I would feel kind of silly playing a third, Dingo.

I could possibly go with a magician, if you're not.

Dingo

Who is doing the other adept then ??

But magicians are cool.

Jefepato

I don't recall the player's name, but the character's already in the character sheet thread.

Chazy

That Adept would be mine. I was not aware that someone else was making one. Sorry bout that. But, I am sticking with him as I have a hellatious background I want to play out. *nodnodnod*
Life is short. Live everyday as if it will be your last. For it may very well be.

Dingo

Don't worry, I saw your sheet and yours is absolute not conflicting with mine.

Chazy

Cool beans. The Adept twins will reek terror in the 2070 universe. *nodnodnod*

Dingo

You'll be amazed. My adept is an elf too :)

Almost finished writing him up, and out. The numer crunching in this game, especially if you are not deliberately trying to munch, is horrible.

Chazy

Dingo......just so you know......I am a human born into an Elven family. Much different there. *nodnodnod* Can't wait to begin. Now, Muse........I like sex as much as the next man but lets have a plot and a story line. *sage nods*

Elohim

I might be interested in playing a decker or a street samuria, if you could help me convert an older character to a newer edition.

Chazy

Muse........if you will allow me, I need something to do at work. I can adapt her old character......First thing......wanna be a Technomancer or just a hacker........deckers no longer exist in 4th ed.

Elohim

Well,  technomancer sounds interesting...

the no decker part astounds me...  kinda makes me sad.
