James' father was a Boston native who was transferred to the Vancouver NeoNet branch and his mother was a Salish Sidhe native of Vancouver. 2) What would your parents say about you? He had so much potential, he was the perfect son, the rising star of the Coston family in NeoNet, that is until some good for nothing shadowrunners stole him away from us. 3) What historical events does your character remember? James remembers Crash 2.0 a bit, he was just a child when it happened. It was such a big deal, everyone talked about it all the time, about how bad everything got. He didn't see it as a bad thing; the old, faulty Matrix came down and a new, wireless one rose in its place. He grew up with the new Matrix, learning it's tricks and secrets as they developed. 4) How did you get into shadowrunning, and why? James was the model corporate born and raised decker, a rising star within NeoNet and gifted with state of the art equipment, bio mods, and gleaming silver datajacks. He was going somewhere with the Corporation and so, when the Corporate Court started discussing better protection for the Matrix and the 'technomancer' threat, James was brought onto a new project with the Grid Overwatch Division. It didn't take long for him to see the vision behind the new protocols or for him to find out what else the Grid Overwatch Division was doing. It ran the gamut from spyware, datamining, and profiling, to actively corrupting Matrix access in poorer neighborhoods, selling private data, and destroying people's lives. The more he discovered, the more he grew disillusioned to his Corporate masters and their agenda. He began to stock away his savings and secretly selling tidbits of information on NeoNet through black Matrix hosts, slowly gaining a reputation as a seller of good information. He played himself off as a middleman, eventually using his leverage to contact a fixer, who got him a team, whom he paid to extract himself from the facility he was working at in Vancouver. The run went smooth with the information he provided them as Johnson, and in the early months of 2074, he was in Seattle. He sold off his corporate deck (they could probably trace him by it with some little line of code he never found buried deep inside), got a new deck (not nearly as wiz as his last, but it would do) and started hanging out with some Neo-Anarchists he found through his Matrix connections. Those Neo-A's were in deep with the Reality Hackers and he found that his skills fit right in with them. After a few months of hard work (and fun Matrix runs) the Reality Hackers got him hooked up with some wires and other ware and it wasn't long after that that he started getting other work in the shadows. 5) What is your living space like? James stays in a fairly well to do apartment, tucked away above a small deli in Puyallup, a hard to find place with a secure parking spot in the back. The apartment is kind of on the small size, but it is well appointed, especially with Matrix systems and security. He even replaced the front lock with a high strength, antitamper, biometric Maglock and monitors the place with small motion sensor and camera RFID tags. He also maintains a tiny, single room apartment (little bigger than a storage room) in Tacoma, paid up in full for months in advance and stocked with a spare gun, armor, commlink, medkits and a go bag in case NeoNet ever catches up with him. The door is also secured with a custom Maglock and watched over by sensor tags (the place is so small it only needs one motion sensor tag and one camera tag to watch over the whole place). 6) What are your beliefs / convictions (if any) and why do you hold them? Hatter hates the megacorps, NeoNet especially, and he does what he can to work against them even while doing jobs for them. He keeps his eye out for ways to dick over the megas at every chance he can get, while also working for himself and occasionally the Reality Hackers and the Neo-Anarchists. He tries to keep his eye out for the little guys around him when he can, but his sympathies only go so far for one didn't live the harsh SINless lifestyle growing up. 7) What do you think is your most annoying / worst trait? Despite his associations with the Reality Hackers and Neo-A's, Hatter is often quite naive about what it means to be SINless and destitute. He survived on his savings and quickly built a name for himself in the shadows of Seattle, so he never knew what it was be down and out. 8 ) What megacorp do you like the most? the Least? Why? If a single Mega made it to the top of the drek pile in his list, it would probably be Saeder Krupp, if only for the fact that he knows the least about them and their corruption. The worst is NeoNet, for obvious reasons. 9) How did you come to know your contacts? .... (will get back to this) 10) What do you do on a day off? Relax, browse various ShadowSites and play MiracleShooter. 11) How did you come to learn your skills at your present proficiency? James developed his skills in the Matrix during his childhood and his time working for NeoNet. He learned the basics of self defense and firearm handling as a corp brat, as well as proper social skills and the basics of athletic practice. It wasn't until he got out of corps shadows that he learned how to really handle his guns. The Reality Hackers taught him how to drive and how to sneak around, while the Neo Anarchists taught him how to make and handle explosives. A tutorsoft taught him the basics of First Aid after the first time he took a bullet. 12) Are there any moral limits on what jobs you take or things you'll do? James is okay with killing for money and stealing and doing any number of horrible things for money, but he won't do things that would hurt the little people, the people that haven't done anything to deserve it. He is likely to take jobs for a cut if it helps people though 13) How do you view magic / technomantic abilities? For a while, James bought into the propaganda about technomancers and the threat they pose to the world and society at large, but his views on that have changed during the last few years, especially since he has had the chance to meet a few through the Reality Hackers. Magic and mages he has a respect for and a healthy of at the same time, but that has mainly come from running into them and working with them on various runs since he has come to Seattle. 14) How do you view augmentation / implantation? Augmentation is useful and helpful and it has saved his life now more times than he can count. Whether it is the wires that keep him going faster than the guy trying to bullets into him or the bio mods that NeoNet put into him that help him skate through the 'Trix better than most other deck jockeys out there, he has a deep and abiding love for cyberware, bioware, and augmentations of all sorts. 15) What do you think of ordinary life and those who live it? Ordinary life is boring and he never wants to go back to it if he can. He would much rather spend the rest of his life surfing the Matrix, cutting through IC, and sticking it to the man. Right now, he can't think of anything else he would rather be doing. 16) What would be a bad nightmare for you? Any deep-rooted fears? Why is it so frightening to you? Getting found and caught by NeoNet and returned to the mind numbing dullness of wageslave existence. Also, insects bigger than a quarter. Who gave bugs a right to get that big? 17) What is your 'sacred object' or 'close one', and how did they become so important to you? His cyberdeck is his most important object in his life and the thing he would go the farthest to protect. 18) What did you want to become as a child, and what are your goals now? Hatter has always been interested in computers and the Matrix and he has wanted to be involved in the workings of it for as long as he could remember. When he was a child, he really wanted to be in secret intelligence work, a spy who worked through the Matrix for a shadowy corporation or a secret government program. Now he still wants to do the same, but from the other side of the fence, working from the shadows to destabilize the corporate overlords and secret government conspiracies. 19) What does your character look like, and what inspired her choices? Hatter is about 5'8" of skinny, lean muscle and cybernetics. He wears his hair in a long, lazy mohawk, and dyes it regularly to suit his mood (it is currently black). He has a gleaming chrome datajack at his right temple and has obvious cybereyes with flat gold irises. He doesn't have any tattoos, though he was long considering a nanotat, but he is glad he didn't with all of issues plaguing nanotech at the moment. He has a thin face with a pointed chin and sharp cheek bones, and could almost be confused for an elf if we were taller and had pointy ears. He generally dresses to match his surroundings, to better stay lost in the crowd and not draw attention to himself. 20) How did you get your street name? The name Hatter comes from the quintessential hacker slang for a drek hot decker, a Black Hat. His matrix avatar has also influenced his street name, being a skinny humanoid with a white featureless face under a oversized black tophat, the body covered in a long, high collar coat over a white collared shirt, red bowtie, and vest.

No rush, though, need to wait for horvagab/Gentry to get fully geared and ready to roll before we can even think of doing anything useful. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) hands Sunshine a half eatten package of pizzelles, then starts digging through a bowl of M&Ms, picking out the brown ones I'm interested by the similarities and differences between Wootz and Dog. Curious, the variations possible on the same base team role. You can definitely see a difference in how each plans to behave, based on their ware and stats. Although I find it interesting we both took Internal Airtanks (both at R2, to boot), and Datajacks. I figured those would be somewhat unusual picks for a Sammy when I took them, but I guess either I was wrong, or maybe just great minds think alike. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ~Umi

Wootz is all silk and refinement to Dog's ruff edges ((IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ) The internal air tank just seems like such a good idea™. In another PbP game, my char is in a situation where an internal air tank would be REALLY HANDY, but I didn't take one, and I'm kicking myself now. Datajacks...everyone with chrome should have one!

Mostly white, but I'm is not quite sure what were the original components. Some italian, some welsh but that was a long time ago. 2) What would your parents say about you? My long dead father would say that I'm an idiot for wasting my talents trying to come up with my fantastic gun-katas. My, also dead, mother was always proud of me and I'm sure she still is. 3) What historical events does your character remember? Not much, I never really paid attention and I also moved around a lot. 4) How did you get into shadowrunning, and why? Pop psychology would say that I have something to prove to my merc father, but what I really want is to test myself (and win some nuyen in the meantime). 5) What is your living space like? A decent apartment in a nice neighborhood. Clean, neat and spartan. 6) What are your beliefs / convictions (if any) and why do you hold them? My old sensei has beaten respect and chilvary into me. It gained me the help of an ancient warrior spirit so I'm must be doind something right. 7) what do you think is your most annoying / worst trait? Some people hate that I try to get along with everyone. 8 ) What megacorp do you like the most? the Least? Why? I'm dont like megacorps and I have a hard time trusting people who do. 9) How did you come to know your contacts? John knew my father, I came in contact with him when I moved to the city. Hyo I met online in a gung-fu chat room, we were together for a little while. 10) What do you do on a day off? Practice, try to find some old gun-fu movie I still haven't seen (it's gets harder every day) and practice some more. 11) How did you come to learn your skills at your present proficiency? Father taught me how to shot things, sensei taught me how to hit them. But my gun kata is self taught, one day I deam of opening an academy and teach others. 12) Are there any moral limits on what jobs you take or things you'll do? I don't kill, or hurt, innocent bystanders and I give my respect to everyone, friends and foes alike. 13) How do you view magic / technomantic abilities? Magic is part of life, as simple as that. Technomancer intrige me but they seem similar to us magic-users so I respect their abilities. 14) How do you view augmentation / implantation? It's not for me but I don't mind it. I just think some people don't know when to stop, some times less is more. 15) What do you think of ordinary life and those who live it? A sensible choice if somewhat boring. 16) What would be a bad nightmare for you? Any deep-rooted fears? Why is it so frightening to you? Failure doesn't bother me that much, what would really kill me is dishonor. It's scary because losing it would mean losing my identity. 17) What is your 'sacred object' or 'close one', and how did they become so important to you? Objects should not be hold as sacred. And right now I don't have anyone that close to me. 18) What did you want to become as a child, and what are your goals now? A gun kata master! I still do, although I'm trying to develop a more realistic kind of gun-fu since those old movies are full of impossible tricks. 19) What does your character look like, and what inspired her choices? I'm 6'1'' and in great shape but with a wiry build with black hair and grey eyes. I wear mostly comfortable clothes that allow me to move easily and conceal my weapons at the same time, nothing too flashy. 20) How did you get your street name? Preston was a character in an old gun-fu movie called equilibrium, I used to love it as a child and it was the first thing that got into my mind when I stated running.

She has only worked for him once, and still has to prove herself to be worthy of his attention. Jake 'JJ' Johnson, Bartender & Street-level Fixer (Connection 3, Loyalty 4) A tall, handsome guy with short, brown hair. JJ is one of the bartenders of the Concrete Beach nightclub in Downtown, who is upping his salary by working as a fixer. While he is not super successful, he gets to know a lot of people through his job, which makes acquiring new contacts and customers quite a breeze. A few years ago, he had a short relationship with Keira, but they simply weren't made for each other, at least not in a long-term sense. They did stay friends afterwards, however. Kassandra, Talismonger (Connection 2, Loyalty 1) (2 Karma) An old amerindian dog shaman, who operates a talismonger shop in Tacoma, where Keira usually buys her fetishes and other materials. GEAR Armor Clothing (AR 6) with Electrochromic Modification (950¥) Armor Jacket (AR 12) (1,000¥) Renraku Sensei Commlink (DR 3) (1,000¥) Micro-Transceiver (100¥) Survival Kit (200¥) Medkit 3 (750¥) LIFESTYLE Low Lifestyle (2,000¥) Description [ Spoiler ] The attractive brunette is of average height, about 5'6", with a slender figure. She is in her mid-twenties. Her luxurious hair is falling down to her waist in loose waves. Her pale blue eyes sit under perfectly shaped eyebrows. Her open-minded nature is mirrored in her choice of clothes, unabashedly underlining her good looks with skintight or fairly revealing dresses. Background [ Spoiler ] Keira has always been in Seattle. She was born there, she was raised there, and she lost her parents there. They died during the big Matrix Crash a bit more than a decade ago. Without money and without a real home, she lived on the streets for a while. The child, however, was far from your typical street scum prey. Her magical talents have always been strong. They had manifested at the age of seven, and been on the rise since then. In her teens, she was able to protect herself rather well already, with spells and spirits, and these talents are the reason, why she is still around. On her way, Keira was rarely alone. She quickly made friends and lost them equally fast, usually by choice, as the seductive voices in her head were driving her forward, giving her a purpose. She has many vices and few virtues. There is little she hasn't tried, yet, and little she wouldn't do, as long as it furthered her needs or satisfied her urges. The years on the street have hardened her. She might look like a nice girl, and she is not above using that to her advantage, but inside she is a schemer and manipulator, arousing desire in others and always on the lookout to get the next kick.

Thanee, I see you also found the awesome-sauce that is the new Focused Concentration. The equiv of a R5 sustaining focus that can be used for any spell and can't be taken away or shut down like a focus...this looks like THE must-have quality for anyone that can sling some mojo. Also, interesting: It's weird that the Inc. Ref. adept power says it doesn't stack with magic or tech, but the Inc. Ref. spell doesn't mention any stacking limitations. Your character's sitting on a potential +16 Init, +5d6, not counting att boost(REA) . Scary!

Your character's sitting on a potential +16 Init, +5d6, not counting att boost(REA) . Scary! I'm still a little unsure about how that Adrenaline Boost is supposed to work... since it is an action to activate, it will be used during the combat turn, i.e. if I roll 25 for initiative, I can then activate Adrenaline Boost 3 to act in 31 (using my Free Action for the IP, if not surprised)? But can I also activate it during my turn; i.e. on 25: activate; then act again on 21 / 11 / 1? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/spin.gif) Bye Thanee

Moving Target Group: Members Posts: 865 Joined: 31-December 03 From: Shadows of Britain Member No.: 5,944	The Answer Thanee would be yes. If I have my initiative of 1D6 + 10 and get a 15 and then on my first IP open up my boosts then I got to init 21. At the end of the pass -10 is applied meaning I now have init 11 for pass 2 and init 1 for pass 3.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) And what happens if you have Adrenaline Boost 6 and activate it on your turn? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Bye Thanee

Yes I know the opening is rather simplistic, but this is supposed to be a simple mission to test out the game system. I promise the next mission will be more in depth and likely link to one or more character's backgrounds. Please preference any OoC posts with "@FastFoodFight:[character_name]", so that it's easily identified in this shared OoC thread.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) ~Umi There really isn't any specific text formatting required. Many games default to using: Anything spoken should go in "quotes" and I like the colour Cyan If the dialogue is in any language other than English use red Conversations over your comlink are in "quotes" and yellow Text messaging and emails are in orange, but italicized and wrapped in <<angle brackets>> Internal monologues or thinking are tan and italicized

I could *swear* I saw a guidline thread somewhere on Dumpshock a while back, but I'm not finding any traces of it, so I dunno. Thanks though! Best to just go with whatever the GM wants, huh?
