So instead of derailing a thread that was already pointlessly derailed I have instead decided to post it here as a question. What is Taboo in Shadowrun? I understand that much of this is arbitrary, but I would like to know what people think.
The biggest taboos I think are various forms of mind control (influence, mob mind... ect.) Things that invade someones mind w/o their consent like mind probing, psychotropic ICE, or forcing someone into VR and feeding them BTL chips of your own choosing would be a big no no. A lesser taboo I'm thinking of would be forcing someone into a mental state against their will would also be considered right up there. For instance shooting a troll with a kamakazi injector pellet and then shooting him with stick and shock and watching the insanity might be a big no no. Although there are many taboos in SR I think the biggest thing about SR is you have to get caught red handed for anything bad to happen. I would however like to know other people's thoughts on what is or is not taboo in the Shadowrun world. |
