I wrote this in another thread:

Dude, this is Shadowrun. Sometimes rainclouds are deadly.

I meant it as humor, but got to thinking... Shadowrunners more than anyone else in the game run into Really Weird Shit. And on a far more regular basis than many would like.

So the more paranoid and/or more experienced Runners might prepare contingencies "just in case".

What are things you or your players have been observed doing to Prepare For The Weird?

My Merc character, for example, has been known to carry clips of special load ammo, like Silver Bullets and such. He has in one incarnation carried a large bore revolver with capsule ammo containing a mix of wood shards from a blessed cross, gold and silver powder, Essence of Garlic, Cayenne Pepper, DMSO, and Hyper. "Just in Case". He's Old, and has seen waaay too much Weird Shit.

Anyone else?
