[Karaden]

Greetings everyone,

I've been away from the game for far too long, and am ready to jump back in. Now then, to kick some of the rust off my game I've decided to run a campaign with a couple twists.

First: This will start out as a street level campaign, so 300BP limit for everyone, no more then 160 in attributes, yada yada. Now then, I would like to point out one thing in this. Despite the fact that your limited to 160 in attributes, I'd prefer not to see many 1s unless your character has a very good reason for it. Also, based on the setting (as you will see) rich characters aren't likely to happen. Now, if you want your character to be rich, that's fine, but figure out a good background reason for why they have all this money (Both parents died, and this is the life insurance maybe?) Also along these lines, keep the quality of life stuff fairly low.

Second: All characters should be in the 16-17 age range. You can be a bit older if you'd like, but I suggest against it. There are several reasons behind this, which will be explained as we go on.

Third: As opposed to the standard shadowrun group, you will instead be playing as leaders of a gang. This gang will start off with only a handful of delinquent high school students, but with careful planning may be able to rival gangs like the Halloweeners.

Fourth: You will have gang members under your control. To start out you will have a number of gangers equal to players. I'll be making these gangers, but each person is allowed to request an archetype of sorts (I want a big bruiser who can push people around, I want someone with a bit of magic, and so on). As time goes on, you'll hopefully be able to increase your numbers.

You and your friends are from the wrong side of town, the ghettos are your home, and your school is little more then a place to corral all the local kids till their parents get back from work (Or just to get them out of the house in some cases). At this school of yours, the classes are a joke, and the only real lessons learned are those of a hard life, not that you aren't used to it by now.

Still, school hasn't been a total waste. You and your friends have done what so many others do when there is little hope in life. Joined a gang, or in your case, formed your own. You aren't exactly the Halloweeners, but you have a few other students willing to back you, and you have a certain presence about you that seems to indicate your gang will go beyond stealing lunch money from the nerdy kid.

The only real question is: What will you do from here?

So, feel free to post your characters. Know that all realms will come into play, from gritty combat, to magical investigation, to cyber battles, and of course social battles won through words and deeds over direct action. Of course what areas require the most focus depends on the directions you take your gang.

I think that covers most of the information. Please feel free to post questions and/or characters. I won't be able to answer for about half a day, so if you have some small question about making your character, run with it if it isn't too crazy and I'll give my proper approval when I can. I will be awarding Karma (Or special allowances) for good backstories.

And one final note: Everyone that is signing up, please suggest a name(s) for your gang. The final people will get to pick what the name will actually be.

P.S. Looking for 4-5 people.

P.P.S. This will be a Play by Post, though for particular encounters we may try setting up something (OpenRPG, IMs, whatever) to speed them up. This will mostly be in the case where only a small number of characters are involved (Such as the groups lone hacker doing something big online), which also allows for characters to go on their own little side affairs more easily.

P.P.P.S. I should be able to post quite frequently, and I'd like for others to be able to make a post every day at the very least (First PBP game, so not sure what the average is)

P.P.P.P.S. Availability limited to 8, rating limited to 4. As with most other things, talk to me and come up with a good backstory and I might let you have something higher.


Edit:
I will use this area to keep track of all house rules being used for ease of refrence:

Technomancers treat their complex forms as spells.

When in the state of dying, you take a box of physical damage ever (bod) minutes as opposed to (bod) combat rounds. This allows there to actually be a chance for the person to survive, especially people that use DocWagon contracts.

[Karaden]

Alright, a little collections of all the characters for ease of refrance. Note this won't be kept up to date, this is simply for a refrance of who is who and where they started out.

Introducing our Motley Crew. First up is...

Background:

[ Spoiler ]

Born to a lower middle class family, Dryden was always ambitious. “I’m gonna be the boss one day!” seemed to be his favorite phrase. Then IT happened. Dryden surged. Granted, it wasn’t as bad as it could have been… mirrored irises and pupils on black eyes, black hair that fades to a rather attractive blue at the tips, a “oh my god he’s soooo hot” aura that alternated wildly (until he learned to control it) with a “I’m too badass” aura… could have been a lot worse. Just the other day, he saw some guy with butterfly wings. Butterfly wings! On a guy! Dryden didn’t think the butterfly boy was going to be around for too long… Too many people still worried about Chicago to let something like that happen around here.

But back to Dryden. So he SURGEd. And things started going bad around home. Daddy dearest apparently didn’t like changelings very much, and was rather ashamed that his son turned out to be one of those freaks, and obviously had something to do with the big troubles that have been happening, like him losing his job. So daddy did the natural thing and started drinking and blaming it on Dryden’s mom. Unfortunately, when daddy drinks, fists and bottles start flying. Usually at the Freak. Dryden only sticks around now because, if he left, Mom would be the one left to face Drunken Daddy. And that’s just not acceptable. So Dryden sticks around and tries to keep Daddy’s attention off Mom.

Shortly after one of the more memorable father/son bonding times, Dryden was meandering through the local park and came across a Filipino man waving a pair of knives around in a surprisingly interesting and graceful manner. Conversations ensued and Dryden’s love for sharp-and-shinies and how to use them began. Interestingly enough, Dryden’s magic awoke at around the same time, and has focused itself towards making him the best at what he does.

Dryden’s dreams haven’t changed… he still wants to be the boss one day. He’s just grown up to realize that it won’t just happen. He’ll have to work at it. And, given where he’s from, he’s got a lot of work to do. Luckily for him, there’s a number of like-minded individuals who share the understanding that nobody can do everything on his or her own.

And his Gangster Tristen the Idea's Guy.

[ Spoiler ]

Tristen is definitely not from the area, at least not originally. He was a 'designer' baby. His parents spent what they could to have him modified to be as smart as possible, and then bought him whatever they could to keep nuteruing his mind. Unfortinetly for him, all the treatments had an adverse affect on his health, leaving him weak and sickly. Even more Unfortinetly, his parents where the target of a huge loan fraud, a hacker pinning a 200,000 nuyen loan on their heads. Since then they have been quite destitue, and forced to move to the slums.

Tristen has missed a fair number of days thanks to his ill health, but you know that the treatments had the desired effects, and he is likely one of the smartest people in the area. His past has made him rather cynical, and so he has decided to devote his brain power to causing trouble.

Backstory:

[ Spoiler ]

Description:
A short dwarf, just beginning what is sure to be a very bushy beard in a few years. He tends to dress in basic t-shirt and jeans

Backstory:
Gres’s father was a pastor of one of the more conservative church out there and Gres while at times a willful child, did listen and learn a lot from him. As Gres grew up it became apparent that he was magically gifted. This caused a bit of a scandal in the small and conservative town. His father was a good man who had a falling out with his brother, John, over his use of magic several years earlier and his sons ‘condition’ and stubborn belief in more modern theories about magic, forced him to truly come to grips with it. In the end both his parents, while not really understanding it, came to accept it.

However the rest of the town’s folk weren’t nearly as accepting and his parents after reconciling with his uncle sent him to live him in Seattle. Uncle John was a magic user with much experience and Gres’s parents felt that he would be better at helping Gres adjust and learn to control his new powers. John supported himself by running a small magic shop and so he had a steady income access to magic tools.

During his early teen-age years Gres would go to school and then after school he would help out around the shop until it closed. Then he would do homework or receive some training from John. During this time Gres made good grades and progressed magically. In time he was helping out around the shop dealing with customers and figuring what thing were truly magical and what was window dressing for the wannabes. As the main customers became familiar with him Gres begin dealing with more detailed stuff. Like renewing wards for those that wanting magic security, crafting items of power for the picky customer, and summoning of watchers or elementals for various use.

Of all the areas conjuring seemed to be his weakest point. While he knew how spirits worked as well as any mage, he couldn’t shake the belief that the spirits are servants of a more powerful entity and that he was asking for their help. His uncle figured it was more of a shamanistic outlook that tainted the power Gres used in his summonings even though he followed all the rules. In time they just got use to the fact that his watcher spirits looking like cherubs and his spirits seemed to have angelic aspects to their appearance.

And his Minion Lou the Trickster

[ Spoiler ]

Lou is a bit of an odd kid, but not overly so compared to the rest of the school. Not exactly the most athletic or the smartest kid in school, he still manages to do perfectly on all of his tests. You know full well it is because he looks at the answer sheet on the teachers desk. He may not be great shapes at magic, but he can be fairly clever when it comes to using it.

Description and backstory:

[ Spoiler ]

Description: Milafin is willowy, with her small, boyish bosom almost entirely hidden by her clothing. She has dyed blue and white streaks into her black hair, wearing it in a ponytail that falls to her waist, beating gently as she moves. Standing at around six feet six, she is extremely tall. Her skin is pale blue, while her lipstick and eyeshadow are the colour of darkest midnight. Dangling from her pointed ears are a matching pair of silver pentacles. There is a tattoo of a silver ankh on her forehead. She has a stud in her left nostril, a central labret spike and a barbell on her outer left eyebrow. She wears clothes in various tones of black, with a lot of useless buckles and zips. Her knee-length black boots have two inch thick soles and steel caps.

Backstory: The daughter of an ill-advised union between a deadbeat elven joygirl looking for alimony and a rich human lawyer who she's never met, Milafin had an unhappy childhood. Regularly dumped at the next door neighbours for hours on end while her mother 'entertained' clients, she soon made friends with their daughter Talinth and son Adildair. At five, she was enrolled in the local elementary, where she met Alexei, Dryden, Gres and Tink. They became good friends and have spent every year since then in the same classes. Milafin is currently dating Rarath, an elven mystic adept and lead singer of the Satin Angels.

[ Spoiler ]

Mya is a fairly recent transfer to the school district. Appearantly she used to be in an ROTC program in another school before she got kicked out for bullying and several suspected thefts. With no other schools in the area willing to take her, her parents have sent her to your school, even though it is technically out of their district. It didn't take long for her to find you guys and join up, figuring you could make good use of her skills, and she could have some fun with it.

Background:

[ Spoiler ]

Alexie was born and raised by his parents in Moscow, the youngest of five children. He was hardly the smartest of his litter, but he did well enough in sports and started showing potential as a boxer from a young age.

His young life was relatively uneventful, aside from the voice messages sent by his beloved older sister Kisha who had left home to find work in Seattle and make her fortune. Slowly poverty and misfortune took it's toll, two of his brothers died in a car crash when he was 10 and the third was arrested for trying to assault the driver of the car responsible.

Despair took it's toll on his parents, who both seemed to give up after the loss of two of their four sons. And after an unhappy year they died, leaving Alexie in the care of his human grandmother.

His grandmother had never really gotten on with her daughter or her children, being very much prejudiced against metahumans. She gave Alexie a choice, move to Seattle and live with your sister or be put up for adoption. He picked Seattle and a life with his sister.

Things briefly looked like they would improve, he had schooling arranged for him, not in a nice part of the city but better than nothing. It was about this time he discovered his sisters life was a little more tarnished than he'd imagined, her media industry career was nothing but a lie. She worked the docks as a whore for the Russian Mafia.

Using what little money he had saved Alexie tried to buy her out from their employment, they even let her go for a time, but Kisha was too hooked on the drugs they sold her to stay off the streets long. So with little choice left to him he began sliding further and further away from a chance at a respectable life.

He first met Porthos while bailing his sister out of trouble. An attempt at using force to persuade an unruly client to leave almost lost Alexie his life, if not for the timely intervention of the Italian Elf arms dealer. He was to be the inspiration behind Alexie's love of firearms, especially the fully automatic kind. Since then they've maintained a mostly business relationship, with Porthos occasionally bringing young Alexie along to help with heavy lifting.

Mr Barber is an old client of his sisters, back from her early days as an innocent girl just off the boat from Russia. He was the man responsible for his sisters less than legal enhancements, ones which help lure in the customers. It was during a regular service trip when he met Alexie, tagging along to pay his sisters way. Since then he's done more than a little work on him, sometimes cheaper than going rate through pity about his situation.

Alexie himself is something of a brute. Having cyberware implanted so young has made his stamina rather low compared with many orks of his age and he still struggles academically, but he more than makes up for it with his brawn and strong arm tactics – forcing others to do the school work he's unable to understand.

And his Minion, Tayler the Chemist

[ Spoiler ]

Tayler was always a bright kid, and smart enough not to show it off in class. Had he been brought up elsewhere, he likely would have gone on to earn various scientific degrees. However, having been brought up in the ghettos, his life is instead dedicated to the darker sciences: Mixing up explosives, drugs, flaments, and whatever else might be useful on the streets.He's also learned to patch up a car tire and knows what's what when looking under the hood. Generally very stand-offish, and with a distinctive cough. He's sure that joining the gang can earn him some money and protection from those that would take advantage of his poor physical condition.

Background:

[ Spoiler ]

Tink was born Alexander Tinkonov to 2 rather normal human parents in Russia. Unfortunatly Tink want born exactly normal. He was born a true albino . Pure white skin pink eyes and white hair. On top of that hes always been tall and skinny for his age. With long hair he used to be teased about looking like some fictional charicter called elric.

Tink never took kindly to any teasing of any kind. In fact when he was as young as 5-6 he would come home daiely bloody and brused from getting his ass kicked trying to get in the face of anyone that teased him.

Soon he learned he would never have the physical ability to defend himself so not wanting ..maybe not even able to let it go when he was picked on or teased. He started retaliating the only way he could. At first it was simple tricks that ended up makeing his antagonest look like fools in some way or another. But as he got better at it he learned there were other ways to hurt people. He learned that peoples property loss could hurt as much as a kick to the groin and started learning ways to make it happen.

Drones for going places and doing things he couldnt, chemicals to ruin paint weaken parts or cause discomfort or even start fires.

One time after a public humiliation from a popular boy back in his russion school, he mixed up a batch of synthetic poison ivey extract. He snuck in and sprayed it on all the towls in the house and all the underwear in thier drawers. Then he injected into every roll of toilet papper in the house. I littl eliquid exlax in the milk and oj in the cooler and he was assured his payload would be delivered.

Unfortunatly the boys dad was a lawyer and the insueing lawsuit was devistation for his familey. We moved to the US not long after in an attempt to start fresh. All that ment was a whole new set of assholes that had to be taught not to mess with him.

Most people think hes surged so Tink has always got along better with changlings than norms. Since elementry hes Hung out woth Dryden and his group. They never seemed to care that he looked funny. It was nice to be able to talk to Alexie in his native russian and truth be told he has a slight crush on Milafin her being one of the few women his age that is as tall as he is . And there is the thing that puts him in his current situation...

2 weeks ago he overheared one of the punk ass kids at school was talking shit about how he had banged her behind the
school Tink told him he was full of shit and got in a tussel with him. Wasnt too bad no knives or guns came out but Tink brueses easy and came out of it looking like he got his ass kicked harder than he did.

Oddly that night the punk ass kid had a little accedent on the way home when the wheels fell off his bike. Pussy was all whiney about a cpl broken bones. When my parents got a call from his lawyer they freaked. Not enough evedence to prove i had anything to do with it and our lawyer got us out of it but that was the last straw for my folks. When i got home from school all my stuff was packed.

That was yesterday. With a litte help from my friends i got my drones and stuff moved into an unused storage room in the shop at school untill i can find a place to flop where i can store them.

And his Minion, Keir Lyle the Scrounger

[ Spoiler ]

Keir Lyle is truely a survior. Your not entierly sure when the last time he took a shower was, but that doesn't matter, his ability to 'find' just about anything you need is impressive, especially when it comes to auto parts. Your not entierly sure where he lives, but he gives the impression it isn't a great place. On the other hand you can't think of anyone youd rather have around if you where stranded somewhere without a place to stay.

One interesting group we have here, but the question is, will they be able to become anyone of importance, or will they simply fade into obscurity?

[Mickle5125]

sounds interesting... availability rules? I'm assuming that it's not going to be "whatever you can afford," since this is a low level campaign...

Having said that, I'm certainly interested. Count me in... pending, of course, a little more info.

[Fortune]

Despite the fact that your limited to 150 in attributes, I'd prefer not to see many 1s ...

You are aware that the average pedestrian has only 3s in each of the eight Attributes, which is worth 160 BPs, aren't you?

[Karaden]

Yes, I am aware of that. I don't mind someone having 1-2 1s, I'm just saying I don't want to see Int: 1, Wil: 1, Cha: 1, other stat: 1 reaction: 6 quickness: 5... See my point? Stats should hopefully fall into the 2-4 range without much trouble, with a 1 or two giving options for a 5 or two. A 6 is going to have you sitting on alot of 2s.

And to the earlier question, I've added the answer as one of the P.S.s Availability 8 and rating 4

P.S.
Ok, thinking it over I'll make a slight change. You can spend up to 160 BP on stats so your at least average. Sorry about that folks, been a while since I'd played and thought average was lower for some reason.

[Mickle5125]

quickness? which edition are you planning on running this in? sadly, I only have fourth available to me...

[Karaden]

quickness? which edition are you planning on running this in? sadly, I only have fourth available to me...

Yeah, I'm making a great first showing here. Been playing SR3 lately, meant agility. This will be an SR4.

[Mickle5125]

well, count me in, comrade. I'm thinking leader/face with some skills with a knife... maybe even going so far as to make him an adept... *ponders* any problems with that?

[Andrensath]

I'm interested.

Concept is hacker/technomancer with a few gun skills.

[Karaden]

well, count me in, comrade. I'm thinking leader/face with some skills with a knife... maybe even going so far as to make him an adept... *ponders* any problems with that?

No problems with that at all. Face type will be quite important in a setting like this.

I'm interested.

Concept is hacker/technomancer with a few gun skills.

Sounds good. I'll count this as two slots filled.

[Little Johnson]

im interested. I can post every day most weeks. I only have the basic SR4 book and unwired for now.

[Oenone]

I'd be interested in playing if you have space.

I have a vague idea for a street thug character in mind, if that's okay? The idea being one of the AK carrying teens the Russian Mafia are described as using. (Which would probably put the character in the role of heavy weapons / firepower for that age range)

Edit - Which city are you planning on setting the game in?

[estradling]

I'm interested... if you still have openings... I'm thinking basic street mage

[Karaden]

So, I have the following people as signed up for now.

Rising Young Gangsters, Staring:

Mickle5125 as Face
Andrensath as Hacker
Little Johnson as Unknown
Oenone as Street Thug
estradling as Street Mage


To see what I had originally planned on posting.... Caution: Really bad jokes inside

[ Spoiler ]

So, for our cast we have the following:
(Yes, some bad humor, I can't help myself, but expect things to improve, and please take these all in good humor.)

Rising Young Gangsters, Staring:

Mickle5125 as Face/Guy With a Knife.
Andrensath as Hacker/Geek.
Little Johnson as Guy with a book/Guy with two books.
Oenone as Street thug/The Muscle.
estradling as Street Mage/The Weird Kid.

Ok, Bad jokes aside, that sounds good. We have magic, tech, muscle, and charisma. That leaves Little Johnson to kinda do whatever he wants.

The team sounds good. All bases are more or less covered. I'll begin to move on with these assumptions.

The city will be Seattle. I don't know exactly what area of it yet, as I plan on actually coming up with some proper maps of the city as territory can be of vital importance to a gang.

So, a few tasks for you five. First off characters using the already posted guidelines, compleate with backgrounds. Second, I'd also like to know what kind of ganger you would like as your one of the five. And thirdly, you guys need to come up with a name for your gang. I suggest each person post an idea or two and then everyone vote on their favorite once everyone has had a chance.

P.S. I don't have unwired. I don't mind you using stuff from it, but please PM me the full details on anything you get from the book (Though there is a good chance I'll buy it soon.)

[Oenone]

Okay well I have the Crunch side of the character sorted out already, did a little edit job on a half finished concept to turn it into a nicely rounded 300BP gun toting thug. Posted for your approval below. I'll flesh out the contacts when I do the background post along with some more detail about the lifestyle.

As for the ganger I'd like something in the way of a chemist. Someone who can make molotovs and maybe the odd batch of drugs, brains to back up my characters brawn so to speak. If that leaves enough points spare then some other technical skills would be nice like say mechanical knowledge and the ability to drive etc.

Background I'm working on now, will hopefully have it posted later tonight.

Gang name wise let me see.... Nothing springs to mind immediately, but I'll again hopefully have something by the time I'm done on the background.

I was planning on using one thing from Unwired the details of which are below.

Copy pasted from the book for ease of reference.

Edit - I'll also think up a name by the time I post background. As it hit me my original planned name doesn't work as it's not Russian enough.

[Little Johnson]

Gear head/ rigger not sure if ill go techno mancer or regular rigger. but gearhead it will be

my gangerthat i controle i would like to be a thief/ scrounger. the guy that always knows where he can scrounge up just what we need or at least something that will work even if its not just rite.

Can we assume that if e are 16 we are still in highschool? i wasnt clear from youre description if we were still in school or met in school.

[Oenone]

Hmm okay so my background, lifestyle and contacts will probably be Tuesday rather than today. But at least this means I can make adjustments to the background based on any feedback I get on the character itself.

[Karaden]

@Oenone All looks good except that I couldn't find reduced senses in any of my books. I'm guessing it is another one in unwired, and would like a look at it. 10BP seems like a lot for a penalty to taste.

Other then that, looks good and I'll get to work on your ganger.

P.S. A very good character. I didn't spesificly state this, but I notice a lack of serious min-maxing/powergaming which I quite like. Few odd quirks, but ah well, I'll accept that for an otherwise very believable character.

@Little Johnson Alright, was thinking a mechanic type might be a good addition. I'll get to work on your ganger as well.

And yes, you can be assumed to still be in high school. Likely junior or senior year, with the ever present possibility of dropping out.

[Mickle5125]

wait, we get a ganger to minionize? I'll have to think on this... much fun can come of it... ^_^

[Mickle5125]

damned double posts...

[Mickle5125]

So are any of the books off limits?

[Karaden]

So are any of the books off limits?

No, no books are off limits. I've just now gotten Unwired and Runner's Companion, and never got around to looking though arsenal much when I got it, so I'm still fairly unfamiliar with them, but I doubt there will be anything I dislike in them.

This does remind me however. When getting things that aren't in the main book or augmented (Both of which I know very well) Please at least tell me where they came from so I can look them up without having to scan through everything. (Page number handy but not needed)

P.S. I just realized something. I haven't mentioned any house rules. The only one I can think of off hand is one that has become so commonplace it is almost the new actual rules. I am speaking of the adjustments to matrix related tests. Instead of using the program rating, you use your logic attribute, and your number of hits is limited by the rating of your program. I do believe that is how it works. I'll look back through some stuff to double-check, but unless I say any different, assume that is how it will work.

P.P.S. Having looked through unwired a bit, I like some of the stuff I'm reading for technomancers, and will likely include it as a house rule. If your planing on playing a technomancer, and don't have access to the unwired book, please tell me. I'll be using the optional rules: Complex Forms, and Fading from Tasking Skills on p39.

[Mickle5125]

fyi: reduced senses is in RC.

Just got the book and just found it. I'm not going to allow a -6 to 'taste' tests to give you any BP. Sorry but that is just way too munchkin.

And yes, another one that I forgot until I started looking through the threads and books a bit more. You get CHAx2 in free contact points.
