Time/setting
I'm going to use timestamps like "Day 1: 1400", rather than "04/12/2072: 1400" to leave the door open for other GMs to hook into specific historical events. They will be in green
For my own convenience, I have set the adventure as starting in the Seattle area. I know the Agency doesn't have an official location, but I'm going with Seattle for now.

Posting style:
Italicize thoughts.
Character names in Bold.
"Regular quote marks around dialogue."
<<chevrons around private, electronic communications>>

Rolling:
Make your own rolls, honor system. Post them thus:
Attribute + Skill [+ other modifiers]
[write out results of roll here] = # hits (also note if glitch/crit glitch)

If you want to roll for something but aren't sure of the proper roll, post your best guess and I'll ask for something different if I need to.
If I want to keep modifiers secret, I'll roll the modifier dice and add hits for + modifiers, subtract hits for - modifiers.

Secrets:
I prefer PMs to spoilers, so I wont be using many of the latter. Up to you how you want to keep personal things personal for your character.

Karma/Edge
Karma will be awarded at the end of the run. I will probably refresh edge at least once during the run, but other than that I'm not telling.

The Team
Oracle (BlackHat): Adept investigator
Caca (DireRadiant): Street-sam socialite
Grandpa (Alex): Assassin & sniper
Ziro (DeBadAss): Mage
You guys may decide that someone with vehicle skills is needed. If so, we can either try and recruit another player or work up an NPC that gets hired.

Everybody check in and let me know that you're good to go, and I'll start the IC thread.
