An idea shamelessly stolen: good idea? (SPOILERS), From the forums. (SD's players keep out) Options

Not the stealing of idea, we know it's always a good idea to steal someone's better idea.


The idea myself is that someone has been harassing someone known and beloved to the 'runner's fixer contact. The fixer wants them to pay, and pay badly; she will pay 1,000 :nuyen: for every week in which the runners manage to harass this person somehow. Making his life miserable, in those "Oh come the fuck on!" ways.

Meaning, no contact. If he ever sees a runner and suspects what they're up to, the deal's off. If the runners get him killed, directly or indirectly, or do him harm through their own direct actions, the deal's off. Getting others to beat him up is okay, as long as it's not by paying the others; IE: If they cause his car to malfunction and drive him to a Sons of Sauron meeting, (and he emerges alive), that's one thing. If they pay some Orks 250 :nuyen: to stomp him, that's another.

Basically, this is a funny way for the runners to pick up as much as 4,000 :nuyen: a month, and entertain me by being creative, while at the same time giving me fodder to post on the DSF for everyone to laugh at.

Is this a good idea? I want them to get creative, of course, not have him beat every week. I want him harassed, not hospitalized four times a month.
