For the group I currently GM for we've got the following characters.....


Japanese Human Yakuza Bodyguard ( disgraced ) with a lot of reaction cyberware and a big ship on his shoulder. A profession killer, he has turned to the shadows to make money for his family since following his "disgrace" the Yakuza would sooner kill him (and his family) than hire him.

German Human Moon Maiden Shaman ( non-initiate ) with strong "rock&roll" music skills and a tendency to be flamboyant. Has to keep to the shadows though because her father a wealthy meat baron from Westphalia is looking for her. She's quite young, barely above a teenager.

Fox Shapeshifter Wujen ( Low level Initiate ). Refugees from China with his "father" (adopted) who is a medium level initiate wujen, but has been suffering from physical ailments of late ( related to the details of how they became refugees ) and is dependent on the character.

Ork Combat Decker from the Ork Underground of Seattle. Only goes for low detectable cyberware. ( Does NOT use a cranial or implanted cyberdeck ) Possibly the most well-adjusted of the group. Currently the group leader as none of the others are remotely qualified for the position. Plenty of contacts and the best social skills of the group


Which will provide the BIG headaches for converting to SR4?
