sore loser. :D That;s ok, I'm the tall blond guy that always seems to have short bosses that like to take out their frustations on me. Stopped since I grew a beard though. hmmm..... maybe if more Germans had beards.
Now how can we bring this back on topic to YoTC? ..... In one game, we had some dwarf twins. Except one was a troll. he'd SURGED in to a troll when the comet came. Hi-lar-i-ous. |

When YOTC entered our campaigns, I was still playing Leela. Thank heaven's she had several essence worth of implants which significantly reduced the chance for her becoming a changling. Any of the negative changes and her career would have ended for good since she was basically built around the "Rocker" (albeit Euro Classical) concept from Shadowbeat. Actually, none of my characters experienced mutation which was fine by me, although the Troll Mage in our groip sported red eyes, purple fur, and extended claws. Man, talk about messing with your stealth tests. |

Something just occured to me about the whole Emperor line. It was an ancient tradition in Japan that each Emperor got a new Palace. The idea was the old palace was unclean, and would be torn down.
You could be looking at a symbolic recreatino of that with the current SR Emperor. He is tearing down a lot of what went into 21st century Japan in SR to make it into what he wants. |

Most of the Hitomi insanity was your typical "novel author went batshit crazy" metaplot. |

The Comet Race of 2061 was definitely more interesting than the one in 1986. OTOH, probes from 1986 actually reached the comet and made it back.

Sam's also a scaled incestuous lesbian with gills but she isn't isn't a ninja, she isn't a shapeshifter and she isn't Empress of Japan. It isn't my fault that canon supports and encourages over-the-top characters. Embrace the insanity. Make a down-on-his luck Drake megacorp VIP running from Lowfyr as next PC. |

that breaks one of the major rules of shadowrun, however. NO ALIENS IN CANNON. |

I suspect almost no one here,including the writers of SoA, has your point of view dear. |

I think that's almost explicit in the SoA chapter where they discuss the new palace and the new Era.

Actually, Fox, that's an erroneous assumption. It was not only in SoA but it was seeded before... |
