Let's Get Gritty (OoC/Discussion. Always Rectuiting!), Chicago... Nuff' Said Options

[Belvidere]

Wasteland. That's what they call it now. Chicago that is. They say that nothing is worth a damn thing anymore. They say that the if the bugs don't frag ya, then the radiation will. They say the only people left there are the crazies and those lookin' to no be found. But what most don't know. They're right. Containment Zone, Wasteland, Drekhole, Abyss. Oh I've heard all the names. My favorite name of all, Home.
Believe it or not, there are some of us who love this place. It's the only thing we know, and it's ours. No corp is going to try and claim this place and only the crazies go into the truly dangerous places. So I ask you, are you up for it? Cause you know what they say chummer. Only roaches and twinkies can make it in a place like this. Care to prove'em wrong?

Welcome on and all to the Let's Get Gritty OoC thread. This is where OoC concerns and comments shall be voiced, as well as dice rolled when needed, though I'd like to keep those to a minimum. I'd like to keep the game fun and fast paced though gritty and grimy just like our favorite hell hole of a city.

Character creation rules are as follows:
-600 Karma character creation
-Standard restrictions on gear, but I'm going to trust my players to get gear that makes sense for their characters. I reserve the right to say "no"
-Your characters can either be born and raised in Chicago, or recently in the Zone. If you're new to the Zone, I need a damn good reason for you to be there.
-I'm going to be using the advanced medtech rules for massive damage, and glitches and critical glitches.
-I am hoping for at least two posts a week from everyone, though I know things come up. If you're unable to get time to sit down and post, just shoot me a quick PM to let me know.
