Warning! Playing this game could make you lose some respect for Shadowrun.

Like, y'know? ;)
[/Disclaimer]

Me: Ok, I'm tempted to run a couple of games.

Dumpshocker: So, are we playing down and dirty runners?

Me: Nope

DS: Company men then, with top notch Hugo Weaving suits?

Me: I don't think so.

DS: Then we're having a gang war!

Me: Err, Large Mike is doing that pretty fine...

DS: Well, what is it? Mercs? Arcology survivors? Tir Ghosts?

Me: I'm afraid they could be fraternity jocks or cheerleaders. Ain't that kewl?

DS: *Shoots JongWK*


Well, I'm going to try a little PbP GMing. I am not, however, in the mood for a bunch of gritty characters paranoid enough to shoot their own shadows (I've seen that happen, but I'm digressing).

I've been adapting two stories for SR, and I'm looking for 4 to 5 players. Their characters should be from the Washington University ("U-Dub"). For this first game, I need them to be on good terms with a crusty old Professor. He teaches law and is not too terribly fond of corps. You don't need to study that or to have passed his course, just be a friend of him.

This will be a run of sorts (there could be some lethal violence), but it's more of an investigation. If everything goes ok (and I manage to recover adventure #2), you'll go on holidays to the wonderful land of Az (this sequel is aptly named "Not another teen Azzie Horror movie").

I can GM during working days (Mon-Fri), and it gets expensive for me to access the net on weekends. You're warned.

Final note: As for the character ideas... go wild! :silly:

(Of course, be *somewhat* realistic: unless you craft a superb background story, those Wired Reflexes 2 are a little out of place...)

[Edit]
PS: For flexibility and weirdness' sake, use 125 Building Points.
