So, how are the Drop Bear Ninjas related to Shredder? |

Heh...was throwing together a mini-run for last session and I brought up to one of my players that "you guys should hunt a drop bear in the sewers".
It got a groan... |

Heh, well that and he is a reader of this thread... :)
Last time they were in the sewers they had an encounter with a cerebrus hound, and the time before that the had problems with hellhounds...oh, and a devil rat pack. :) I did warn them yesterday that the thing terrorizing the sewers had escaped from the zoo.... |

One of players started reading this thread after i muttered about Drop Bears on several sessions. He stsopped after reading the first 3 pages.... he was too weak, as not everyone is able to face the truth about Drop Bears.
I played an encounter at the sewers of Miami, as a player. Our GM let us hunt an escaped and genetic modified alligator. Was a lot of fun even though we had to fight against devil & demon rats as well as a pack of ghouls. Too bad the GM never heard of Drop Bears and this thread. |

What your group needs are 4 talking ninja drop bears named after Renaissance musicians in color-coded masks terrorizing the sewers. |

I convinced a former player to do the GM-job when we're playing SR as i'm the GM at our weekly Earthdawn-campaign for nearly four years now.
But i'll never tell him about Drop Bears. :D |

I'm very afraid now.
What if all marsupials have "Drop" variants when infected with HMHVV? You might end up with Drop Kangaroos, Drop Tasmanian Devils, and Drop Bandicoots... Hold me, I fear the Drop-Beasts. |

Drop pandas and Drop-(other)bears brings up a further worry.
We have yet to figure out if a panda is a bear or a raccoon. Imagine it, you've locked yourself in your safe-room, hit the panic-button and begun to pray. The 'star will be there in a few minutes, but meanwhile the drop-bears are held at bay by the reinforced doorway. Then you hear a scratching at the door that's different from the normal attempts of your dull-eyes predators; something more deliberate. To your horror the door slowly swings open, a drop-bandit hanging onto the door-knob with one paw, and a bit of wire in the other paw. You're not safe anywhere! |

ya' know, it's always so reassuring when I go away for the weekend, and see tha you have all done so well while I was gone. Warms the heart it does. :oops:
I've been kinda tossing around an idea. How well would a drop Panda adjust to the differnet climate of say, some place like...... Seattle. Para-animal smuggling, and all that fun. Run idea was kinda smuggling in a bunch of drop bears into an arcology, or perhaps something REALLY funt like the MCT towers in downtown. Drop bears in a zero zone. Paratrooping in. Good stuff. |

My group is heading towards the jungle in south-west Cara Fahd. I'm sure there will be a place for jungle Drop Bears :D
My favourite animal so far had been blood apes. Nearky killed the whole group twice. Nasty critters. Oracle, i would invite you to my current group, but we're already 6 players and a GM and that's enough. Sorry. |

you're more than welcome to come to my group, but we are in Utah. Long walk, from anywhere really. Nastiest thing my beastmaster has fought so far was a cow. Seriously. Fought a couple horror.s Killed 'em. Fought a bunch of sky raiders. Killed 'em. Fought a nasty corrupted beastmaster. Killed 'em. Twice.
Beat up a cow. Damn thing got back up. Knocked it out again. Damn thing got away. Now my beastmaster (of all people) has serious issues with cows. |

the worst part was..... it was on an airship, and we were raided, and captured the other ship! I have no idea how the damn thing got away!
The whole point was that I was supposed to go capture 4 cave crabs in order to get a couple of pieces of knowledge from good ol' Icewing, and the cows were food for the trip back (for the crabs). That one cow had been giving me attitude the whole trip there. So I was looking forward to having it being the first one fed to the crabs. And the damn thing just dissapeared! Damn COW! So yeah, thanks for the cow hatin' love JJ. damn cows |

It's so simple: it was a Drop Cow, able to jump off the ship and land unharmed.
Oracle is living roughly one hour drive away, so it would be possible that he joins my group. ;) |
