Greets,
I was looking through some old RPG books I have, which included ones by Dark Conspiracy. I was thinking what would it be like to include monstrous technology into Shadowrun. To have more mundane horrors as part of the urban landscape. How would you feel about having items that were twisted and wrong and had background counts. Highly sophisiticated computers made from slides of human brain. Drugs that were distilled from humans tortured to death. Cadavers reanimated with technology. Creatures that prey on shadowrunners. This would a be world where the horrors had won and Shadowrunners just did not know about it. |
