48 for my most recent character. Pitty, I was going for 50+ . The game is still young so there is still time to earn two more points.

Turn the character into a woman who's trying to prove that she's just as good as the guys and you're set.

Yeah, but I resurrected on Easter Sunday, the same as Jesus. End of discussion. . . . I got a 33. |

She's already a woman but she doens't have to prove anything. She's also a lesbian who was having a forbidden incestuous affair with her older sister untill the latter was tragicly killed on a shadowrun.
If there were a checkbox for tragic forbidden incestuous lesbian affairs she'd be on top. |

If there was a "lives out sexual fantasies" box, I'm sure you'd have to check that one, too.

Easy: her sister's death was so traumatic that she became an amnesiac. Plus, she's the daughter of Dunkelzahn and Damien Knight. :grinbig:

Here's how that would work. Not work-safe. |

I don't know what the site policy is, but linking to a porn site (even if it's just cartoons and stories) may not be a good idea, especially with no warning.

Dude, I was talking about the daughter of Damien Knight and Dunkelzahn. That was warning enough.

You forgot "goblinized" before "older sister."

There's a rational and mature response to a story like that. Unfortunately, I am not going to make that response. *giggle giggle snort giggle* |

Oh yeah, another important thing happened last Saturday. Emo and G met with each other to discuss G's proposed mage character. I talked to them for a short while, and asked G what his character was like. G's answer was brief and to the point: "He's a mage. He's a bit psychotic." As I left, G was telling Emo something along the lines of "so basically, he was raised by the bears in the forest and learned magic from them." Obviously, he hasn't read the sourcebook very well, but I give him kudos for his sense of humor. It's going to be fun playing with G.
Anyway, that's three down and one to go. K has stated that he would have preferred to play the hacker character, but since I'm taking that role, he's going with his default choice of tanking. I expect he'll be some kind of street sammy or some other tough-guy type, but we won't know for sure until he and Emo meet. |

That could work for a bear shaman with the uncouth flaw. We almost had a similar character in our game. The "psychotic" part makes it a little easier on the GM, as he knows that the character learned magic from Bear, not a bunch of bears, but the character is free to believe what he wants. :)

Were those bears smarter than the average bear?

I suppose Awakened Bears would be able to communicate better on an intelligent level than a normal critter. Though I wouldn't expect the degree of Baloo (learning from animals, somone's read/seen the Jungle Book too much ;) ). As James points out that learning from Bear as a totem would make more sense - as well as the character leaning more towards the Shamanic tradition... I don't think bears would know much about physics and mathematics to teach the character the Hermetic tradition.
Considering Emo's campaign ideas, I'd say being a little psychotic would fit right in with the 'awsomeness' (trying not to gag here) of the GM's world. Say Emo, does G's character have the Uneducated negative Quality as well? That would seem to fit with the bit FG's told us about the character's background. Query: What does 'shinier' have to do anything with it all? Just wondering. |

My game is awesome and nothing you say is going to change that.
The "raised by bears" thing is wildly inaccurate, and it's better that that's all FanGirl heard. Mentor spirits are shiny; of course his bear is shinier than the average bear, if not less prone to berserking, or trolling on forums. Oh, and I'm sure you aren't welcome here anymore. Just a hunch. If anyone wants to hear about G's character, head over to my character thread; FanGirl, you are no good at keeping secrets, so if you go there, too, I will know. |
