I'm curious as to where and how your runners live, and what they do outside of work.

My first runner was somewhat famous for being always on the job, having such an extensive defense plan for his house that assaulting it would be nigh-on suicidal, and considering a night running around a z-zone gathering intel to be more enjoyable than a night clubbing. Yes, he was a bit of a wierdo... but he did regularly save the group from a lot of trouble, so they put up with him. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

My current runner has only been on a few missions, and has been living with her family in a duplex on the edge of the barrens. Unfortunately, with the group's decided lack of stealth she's decided that the risk of work following her home is too great, and she's pooling with the rigger for a nice place in downtown Seattle (as that's where all the best clubs are, and both characters are party girls). It looks like we've found a nice, close-knit neighborhood to live in (High lifestyle, Quiet neighborhood, Friendly neighbors, Privacy screen 1 from neighborhood watch making spying difficult), but the catch is that it cuts both ways, and we're likely to be the first port of call if anyone on the street needs anything mechanical done (both characters have at least one mechanic skill, and the house includes a large garage. or if you prefer: crash pad and workspace). also, the house was designed to be... well, a house, not a fortress, and the street isn't exactly defensible (Ambusher's delight). I'm thinking of joining the local Neighborhood watch and generally being a pillar of the local community... as much for the irony value as anything. Shadowrunner/Neighborhood watch captain/local miss fix-it for the win! Naturally, I'll still be paying for my old lifestyle as i continue to support my family.
