Alright, so I sat down one day and was flipping through the Runner's Companion when I came cross one line that made me squeel with joy. I'm telling you, it sounded like GIR had taken over my brain.
QUOTE Note, however, that the lifestyle remains at the level of categories chosen; the final LP tally with Positive and Negative qualities effects only the final cost, not the level of lifestyle. So we take that with the Trust Fund quality, which gives us a "free" High Lifestyle and we go nuts. Like so.... Comforts - High (4 Pts) Entertainment - Middle (3 Pts) Necessities - Middle (3 Pts, Food and Size are Luxury thanks to positive qualities) Neighborhood - High (4 Pts) Security - Luxury (6 Pts) 20 points of Lifestyle for the High provided by Trust Fund Astral Repellant +5 Concerned Neighbors +2 Easy-Going Landload +1 Escape Tunnel +3 Feng Shui +5 Free Access +1 Friendly Neighbors +1 Hasty Exit +2 Homegrown Farming (Plus two levels food Necessities) +1 Inconspicuous Housing (Matrix) +2 Inconspicuous Housing (Physical) +2 Perfect Roommate +2 Privacy Screen (Astral) +3 Privacy Screen (Matrix) +3 Privacy Screen (Physical) +3 Quiet Neighborhood +1 Rad Pad +1 Security Conscious +2 Well Made +1 Worplace (Plus two levels size Necessities) +1 Total = +42 positive qualities Now the quick and dirty math of this is 20 Pts Lifestyle + 42 Pts Qualities = 62 Pts Total = 1,150,000 New-Ones a month for rent, which is essentially free thank so 20BP. Again, all this was quick and dirty. |
