I can't find the time to play in person, so I've decided I'll run a game online. This seems to be a fairly lively community of SR4 players, so I'm opening up the discussion here.

You: reply with a brief description of the character you want to play. Do not worry about overlapping with someone else at this point, as I expect we'll have enough volunteers to allow me to pick a crew that covers the bases. Include enough info so that I can get a feel for the sort of game you're after as well.

Me: I wait until I've got a few folks on the line, ask probing questions, and eventually pick out a team of 4-6 runners. It will not be a case of first come, first served.

We: discuss how the team came together, what relationships will be in place prior to the start of the game, and get down to actual numbers. Oh, and come up with a name for the game, based on what everyone wants to do with their alter egos.

I will say that I'm likely to use some alternative rules, but they're ones I've seen in common use in other threads, for the most part, and will post a list of them when I get home (posting this from the office, over lunch, and forgot my thumb drive with the document on it...) That shouldn't matter too terribly as we get started, however, as I don't want to see a single statistic mentioned in your descriptions.

So, lay it on me. One sentence to several paragraphs - who do you want to be today?
