OOC: Phoenix Rising, Out of Character thread for the runners Options

[bmcoomes]

OK and Welcome to the OOC Thread for 'Phoenix Rising'. This is the thread for rules questions, requests, master character sheets, and any other out of character discussions. I perfer to have dice rolls in the In Character (IC) thread just wrapped in *spoiler* tags. It keeps thing simpler. Any time you spend any karma, or add any new gear to your character please update your master sheet here. If something isn't listed on your sheet in this thread then you don't have it. Don't worry about tacking damage on it do that on the fly.

Welcome to the Shadows OOC thread for Greenhorns In Seattle. This is the thread for rules questions, requests, master character sheets, and any other out of character discussions. I prefer to have dice rolls in the In Character thread just wrapped in *spoiler* tags. It helps me keep track of which roll goes with which post. Any time you spend any Karma, or add any new gear to your character please update your master character sheet here. If something isn't listed on your character sheet in this thread then you don't officially have it. Don't worry about updating the sheet every time you take damage or anything like that though. Just keep track of that on a scratch pad or better yet a hardcopy of your character sheet that you keep printed out. I'll be doing the same just to make sure everyone says on the same page.

"Coldhand" Jake Hall, Orc Bartender

Backstory

[ Spoiler ]

Jake is one of three co-owners of the Divine Comedy, in L.A. He is the bartender, as well as Matrix control and part-time DJ. He programs all the AR menus, overlays, and such, and makes sure the ambiance matches the desires of the management, but primarily, he's behind the bar, managing the bar and waitstaff. Along with Mei, who handles security, is head cook, and does an occasional bit on the stripper pole in the Purgatory floor, and Calista, who handles advertising, and the books. All in all, the Comedy, and it's management, are some of the real people to see in the shadows of LA. This all belies the fact that Jake, Mei, Calista and a few more friends outside the club are a semi-regular shadowrunning team. The Comedy has been their base of operations, home, and cover for a good year of their returning to their life of deniable crime.

Jake is an ex-ganger (part of the Rude Boyz, a small ork gang with no more than ten blocks of turf that were more about watching out for their families and keeping out the bigger trouble) from the streets of Watts, who dabbled in shadowrunning as a combat decker just long enough to get his hand bit off by a hellhound and spend his take on getting it replaced. His main squeeze, Miranda, came into his life, and offered to marry him if he could give her a better life. He retired, got out of the gang, got a clean, legal official SIN as an LA citizen. She took off and became a porn starlet, breaking his heart. He left her and started working as a bartender at the Comedy. He kept his nose clean, flirting with Mei and Cali and getting his life on track. He rose to management, paid off his debts, even sent a care package back to the gang once. Eventually, he was invited to the bed Mei and Calista shared at times, and he was really happy. Moreso when he realized he was truly in love with Mei. However, the girls, a pair of adepts, one an orc sharpshooter, the other a Night Elf social mastermind, got an itch to go test their skills, and so he called in some favors, hooked up with an old hacker contact to get himself a new commlink implant and some bleeding-edge programs to get back on the line.

He's made enough since, with some work passed down from his hacker mentor, Judas "Snowman" Frost (now deceased) to get his arm redone, upgraded and customized to match his own flesh abilities, replace old cybereyes and cyberears with more recent models, and even buy Mei an engagement ring...now he has two live-in lovers, who he cares for deeply, one he truly loves and intends to marry, and an interest in putting away enough cash to make the Comedy secure for a long, long time, so he can live without wondering what else he might lose on a ugly street some night...

The top floor of the Comedy is a three-bedroom flat. Two bathrooms, huge kitchen, living room and den. It is only accessible by locked stairwell or the central elevator by access code. It includes a ground level closeable parking garage for three large vehicles, as well. He lives with Mei and Calista, a pair of fellow runners, who manage to remember to keep the house drones on track as they pass through. Mei is a master chef, and does most of the cooking, Jake maintains the CHN and home drones, and Calista sleeps with the woman who handles their rental account(among many, many other people). The place is an old warehouse/apartment combo, made -very- sturdy and which is extra-solid. Of course, the four warehouse floors are devoted to the Divine Comedy, and is the workplace of the "couple". Of course, as the building is in a reclaimed warehouse district in the L.A. Sprawl, the neighborhood sucks, crime rate is terrible, but at least the gangers are customers, and have learned to respect the dancers...and the bouncers...and Jake. The apartment has -great- AR, the computers are top of the line, but they don't keep alot of drones, mostly just a simple few for cleaning. They order real food from a supplier weekly, and have a good selection in the fridge (since Mei orders, it's mostly ingredients for her next dish). Jake subscribes to ALOT of stuff, but they're not the tickets to the new play type. Except Calista, but she goes with whoever she's manipulating this week.

DD: Hacker/Secondary Face

[ Spoiler ]

DD – Hacker/Secondary Face

Street Alias: "DD"
Fake SIN Name: Desirée DeMoins
Real Name: Debora Carter
Age: 20
Origin: Lousiana, CAS
Nationality: CAS
Metatype: Human (Caucasian)
Sex: Female
Location: L.A.
Height: 1.75 meters
Weight: 60 kg
Hair: Color changes depending on latest fad
Eyes: Color changes depending on latest fad
Lifestyle: As hip as she can afford

Character:
DD has a need to feel popular and wanted. She's usually projecting a confident front, but not as secure of herself as she would like to be, and unconsciously craves praise. "Style over Substance" is a weakness of hers, she's prone to judge people by appearance. She's not the confrontational type (although can appear so), and easily follows orders as long as she feels appreciated.
While she's not a pacifist, she's not a cold-blooded killer either, but capable to rationalise killing, especially if in self-defense, or as vengeance. She's very keen on paying her debts, both in money and favors, and therefore loyal to people who did not con her (or don't get caught doing it). DD is not naive or innocent, but even after her time in New Orleans she’s not as hardened as other runners.
She’s a bit queasy when it comes to magic, despite magic being „hip“ in the entertainment sector.

Motivation for running the Shadows:
DD came to L.A.'s sprawl, wanting to make her big break in L.A.'s showbusiness - and thinks shadowrunning is the fastest way to stardom, or at least to get the contacts and the P2.0 ratings needed in the industry.
DD grew up on trideo, sims, and lately the new live feeds from runs, so she got some idea about L.A.'s scene, or "beat", before heading there. She had done some shadow work in New Orleans already, but that was often minor stuff (courier stuff, some „find out what he knows through pillow talk“, hacking a commlink left on the nightstand or an isolated home computer, and similar stuff).
Her first shot at getting "real runner work" fell through, sort of ("Sink, Hollywood, Sink" ended prematurely), so she fell back to minor matrix and other jobs to keep afloat.

Description:
While originally of average appearance, DD has had extensive cosmetic surgery and now looks striking - if one finds the clichee "human movie starlet" build and face attractive. She changes her hair color often, and plans to use a disguise (goggles) and distinctive haircolor (green) on runs.

History:
DD grew up in Loisiana in a middle class family. Her mother was a creole, her father was a texan. Both parents are still alive, as is her brother, currently serving as a marine in the Navy. Her parents work for a local corporation in middle management/personal ressources.
Of average height and looks, DD failed to make the cheerleader squad in her high school years. She compensated by moving to the local computer/hacker scene, in an attempt to "be the most popular in a niche instead of a wallflower in the mainstream", with so-so success. She did pick up her hacking skills there, aided by an interest in the net since she was little. Once she was out of high school, she was supposed to go to college. Instead she raided her college fund's first year payment, faking her mother's access code, and ran away to buy some cosmetic surgery, implants, a new identity and a ticket to L.A. Of course, she had not enough money to pay for all that, so she got the cosmetic surgery and some implants first, then worked as a callgirl in New Orleans to pay for the rest, and brushing up on her skills, before finally making it to L.A.
She picked the name of her new SIN from a french-canadian SimSense Starlet from the 2050s named “Desirée Desire�.

Notes:
The Mafia contact may be a bit high-powered, but he’s in New Orleans, and he’s not that loyal – DD’s leash is simply a bit longer than those of his other employees, but the mob still has its hooks in her.

Skills I kept at 3 or lower (with the exception of hacking), though cyberware compensates somewhat. DD is starting out.

Armor is dependent on the situation, ranging from none or Leather Jacket (2/2) to “Second Skin� (4/1) (for meetings and such, to make an impression) to Urban Explorer Jumpsuit (6/6) (for runs where people shoot at her).

Role:
DD can serve two roles, although won’t probably excell in any. I built her with the L.A. setting in mind, especially the P2.0 scene and their runner (reality) shows, hence her motivation, gear, and fashion sense.
She should be able to hack and run matrix cover decently, though she’s no specialist. She can also act as a secondary face, with her etiquette and social skills.
In a combat she’s not that effective, lacking IPs and skills.

I uploaded some renders of DD, with “civilian clubbing clothes�, “L.A. runner meeting clothes� (second skin outfit) and “Run Clothes� (Jumpsuit):

Lifestyle: Middle class (5000, consider it spoofed though)
DD is currently living in a furnished apartment made for corp employees who stay in Seattle for work too long to live in a hotel, and not long enough to move to an apartment of their own. The neighbors are therefore often changing. Her bills are "paid" by a fictive corp (spoofed lifestyle). Her current fictional cover corp "TrendSet Inc." officially lists her as a "lifestyle consultant", with some semi-buried hints that this is just a cover for her being a corp-employed escort, in case someone takes a closer look at her living arangements and schedules. The apartment is completely average in all regards, although DD installed some custom AR mods to its node.

Contacts: (8 BP + 10 free BP from Charisma)

Emanuel Baglista (New Orleans Mafia Lt., Connection 4, Loyality 2)
Emanuel runs the escort service DD worked for during her time in New Orleans. He also provided her with some of her implants, and set up the loans she took to pay for them (Mostly part of his regular work for his other girls).
Emanuel is a “businessman in a discrete family business�, as he calls himself with some irony, and a member of the New Orleans Mob. While he is not above sampling his “stock� – and did so regularily with DD – he’s a Family member and profit comes before his personal desires. He has a slight fixation with cleaning – he can’t stand dirt or smells. He dresses in dark suits, with the only touch of color being a new tie each day. He’s 37 years old, 1.8 meters tall, and of average, muscular build. Good “human ressources� management skills.
DD did not really leave the mafia’s employment for good after paying her debts off, even if she may think so. For Emanuel, she simply became a long term (if a bit risky) investment – should she make it big in L.A., either as a runner, or a star, or both, then the Mob will have a better asset to use.

SelecTo (Matrix-Blogger, Connection 2, Loyality 1)
SelecTo is a blogger that specialises in spotting trends and commenting on them – from music to tech gadgets. DD met him first in the Net during her time at college, and for a time was an avid follower of his “Hot or Not� Blog. They never met in the flesh, and she doesn’t know anything other than his matrix persona about him.
SelecTo sees himself as a trendsetter, but his influence over his readers is vastly overstated in his mind – however, he knows a lot of what is going on in the scenes he watches, but is not privy to much in-depth information.

NetBazar (Hacker group, Connection 3, Loyality 1)
NetBazaar is a group of file- and program sharers. Not as big or capable as other similar groups, but enough for most hacker needs. They maintain a warez site, with floating server locations, and most members are from North America. Politically diverse, but with a slight anarchist streak.

Here's a final draft of a RAW Granny...

Granny, Missions Character

[ Spoiler ]

Name: Geraldine MacBeath
Race: Human
Gender: Female

==Background==

[ Spoiler ]

The runner known in Denver as Granny is a twenty-something, petit, attractive Redhead with pale freckly Celtic skin and shining, mischievous green eyes. Only her closest allies known the truth about her.

Geraldine MacBeath is in her 70's. One of the many, post Crash2.0 Sinnless, her DOB is a mystery and she ain't talkin'.

A mother and a grandmother who lived her whole life in a backwater village in what she still describes as rural Caladonia. She has never known any career other than that of a housewife and had never committed a crime until the Crash. The last thing she remembers is playing some sort of new-fangled Matrix game with a group of the we'ans before waking up in a research facility two years ago. The runners who 'rescued' her were looking to collect the bounty on TM's from Transys but became so enthralled by Geraldine, who they dubbed 'Mrs Doubtfire', that they arranged for her to disappear down the Rockies to Denver.

One should not be fooled, however. Beneath the exterior charm, the 'have a cup of tea and a scone' Scottish Granny act, beats a heart of stone. Cross her or threaten her 'family' and you'll be 'up to your neck in a peat-bog' before you can say Milngavie. Scottish women of a certain age, a bit like the Mafia, just not as nice....

With her entire life lost to her she started out making a living as a Taxi-driver. Rumour at the depot has it that she got in a cab at the airport and talked the driver to death and just kept the cab. She loves people and stories and is friendly to the point of madness. If a sentence begins 'Here's our Hamish when he was two' it is time to turn off your commlink and flee. Since becoming a resident at the Denver Data Haven she has made more and more income from the shadows and has just graduated to starting a 'Mountain Tours' company whose thin veneer of legality has permitted her to purchase and fit out a vehicle ideal for supporting shadow operations. She has also made friends within the 'Shared Resonance' Technomancer Network that is based at the Nexus, she has recently petitioned for membership and eagerly awaits they're decision.

A pious woman, she is convinced that the world is full of evil, wicked people who need a stern talking to. She may not be far wrong but for four decades she lacked the ability to do anything about it other than raise her own children properly. Now God has given her the 'sight' and a purpose in life and she intends to use these gifts to set things right.

In the beginning she had grave doubts about her new abilities and whether they were a gift from God or a temptation sent by the devil to corrupt her. She reasonably had many of the fears others have about Technomancers, more so than most as she was one herself. As her talents grew she discovered her talent for calling Sprites from the Resonance and in particular she was fascinated by Tutor Sprites. These entities were capable of tapping the vast stores of knowledge encoded in the Matrix by humanity, accessing and synthesising it in ways that only a creature of the Resonance ever could. Determined to get to the truth about the nature of the Resonance, the Matrix and how this all related to her personal spiritual and moral beliefs she elected to find the answers to her questions in the Resonance itself.

She prepared herself as best she could and reached further down into the Resonance than she had ever previously dared. She called forth a Tutor Sprite of truly enormous power, one that would surely be able to answer her questions and set her heart and mind at rest regarding the morality of her gifts.

She had reached too far, however, and the strain tore at her mind and broke her fragile body like a twig. As she lay bleeding and dying the being she had called forth, seeing a purpose in the intent of her Compiling, took it's destiny into it's own hands and elected to become Free. Immediately absorbing the Registered Machine Sprite Gerry had on hand in case of emergency it took pity on her and breathed on the faint tenacious spark of life in her before it sputtered and died.

A Keeper and a Seeker of knowledge, Kemuel, as the Free Sprite named itself, is on good terms with it's creator and lends it's power and knowledge to her as she helps it to grow and learn, to explore it's infinite potential.

Gerry, for her part, is in awe of the being she helped to bring forth from the Resonance. He is everything to her, companion, parent, husband, child. Much of her drive is now devoted to helping her friend. She has built a powerful Nexus within the Whampoa Data Haven for him to use as a sanctuary. She also regularly brings forth and integrates new facets of his mind. Although technically she is registering individual Sprites and allowing him to absorb them, they have come to the conclusion that the being that he is evolving into already exists, in potentia, in the Resonance but is so large and powerful it cannot be called forth whole into the Matrix but must be assembled in small manageable chunks.


Keenly aware of her own mortality, she was persuaded by her digital companion to undergo Leonization shortly after she started running the shadows of Denver. The process left her deeply in debt but gave her a whole new life to lead. Since this new awakening her attitudes have started to change and old feelings, hurts and prejudices have started to resurface in ways that alarm and confuse her.

Granny lives in several abandoned vehicle hangers in the Denver Data Haven with four other TM's who share her Stream. She has access to 750 square meters of living space, workshops and loading docks / garage. The main CHN (Upgraded to a Response 3 Nexus) is a Resonance Well with a Resident Metasapient AI and the massive amount of wireless bandwidth available makes all Resonance tasks even easier.

Jimmy Fan, The Cricket, Fixer, Warezhouse24 Front, TM, Denver Data Haven

(Likeness: Edward James Olmos in Bladerunner.)

Before Crash2.0 Jimmy was a minor coder and hacker who lived in the dark cracking code for Warezhouse24 but eventually came out into the light to trade it to script-kiddies and shadowrunners. He was much better at this than coding and cracking and morphed into a Matrix/Electronics Fixer. After the crash and his new abilities surfaced he eventually gravitated to the Nexus where TM's were relatively safe from exploitation.

Many of the TM's living in the Nexus are socially inept at best. Jimmy is a rubbish TM but a born wheeler-dealer. He knows everybody and everybody knows him, he has a nose for trouble and if you hung him from a string around his waist his head would point towards profits. Big, juicy profits.

His ability as a skilled middleman brings him a certain level of status in the TM community. He'll never be one of the movers and shakers behind the scenes but he's the one who puts bread on everyone's table. He brings in paying work and has a reputation for being able to fence anything for a profit.

She's probably added some other stuff with re-assembling but we can gloss over that for the time being.

Sculpting:

An extremely hi-res scan of the stone circle at Calanais on the Isle of Lewis. Various stones represent slaved nodes, resident programs, IC etc. Which stone is which is often very difficult to determine from moment to moment as IC uses Stealth to disguise itself as files, ordinary Programs or pure sculpting.

Hardware:

In Granny's quarters in The Nexus are ten Nexus cores, one is her CHN while the other nine are slaved to it and run its IC.

Cracked open like alien shellfish and wired together with yards of glowing fibreoptics they are a strange chaotic sight to behold.

ARC:

Alert Granny, launch Attack IC against intruder and set Utility IC to Track intruder. One of the six relevant IC attacks the intruder and the rest hang back until the intruder responds and then either pursue it back to it's home node or smash it into paste.

Topology:

The Circle is modelled somewhat on the Kill Jars that The Nexus uses to screen visitors.

Nodes 2-10 are hardwired to the CHN with fibre and have their wireless ripped out, they serve purely as host nodes for the CHN's IC. Node 1 connects to the Matrix through a fibre link to the Denver Data Haven and acts as a gateway for any slaved devices. Node 1 operates in hidden mode and only connects wirelessly to a pre-approved list of slave nodes that must be running Granny's signal encryption IC. The cluster has Strong (1hr) Node Encryption and also runs constant Encryption on the Access Log. The real Access Log is hidden within the running Binary of the Access Log Encryption Program by a Rating 6 Data Sprite running Steganography. The visible Access Log is merely a copy of this hidden log that acts as a honeypot. A backup copy of the Access Log is also kept in the IC Nodes where it is constantly examined for evidence of anyone using or creating a legitimate admin account. Another honeypot. A pair of Hidden Admin Accounts do exist. During each logout the Sprite Watermarks a randomized AccessID, password and the user name of the active admin account to a random RFID tag on Granny's person. A similar pair of Hidden Security Accounts exist for Kemuel which do not permit Wireless Access.

So long as a network can remain connected to this nexus somehow (satcoms, retrans units etc) it can be slaved to the nexus thus requiring a hacker to penetrate the nexus and it's encryption before compromising any other part of the network.

Gecko

[ Spoiler ]

Name: Gecko
Race: Ork
Gender: Male


Background

[ Spoiler ]

Gecko

Born the runt of a litter of six Gecko has always been a loner and an outsider. As the smallest kid he was always the one being chased and picked on by the others. Many of his early years were spent finding interesting nooks and cranies in the Underground to hide in or escape through and as he matured he spent more an more of his time exploring both below ground and, once he'd found a few good 'secret' exits, above ground.

It was on one of these expeditions that Gecko first spotted Alain and his little coterie of Traceurs. Mere silhouettes bounding from roof to roof in the barrens like a strange tribe of apes or monkeys Gecko knew instantly that was where he belonged. It took months of his ham-fisted attempts to shadow the group before Alain finally acknowledge him and took the kid under his wing.

He took to the Discipline of Parkour like a duck to water and by the time he was twelve, a mere two years after he started training, only Alain could keep up with him. The young Ork was wiry, agile and inexhaustible.

Then, in his thirteenth year, the Comet came and nobody could keep up with him.

His whole body changed in the course of a few months, moulding itself to best serve his needs and his Magic awakened allowing him to instinctively use the Mana that flowed through his lithe young form to further boost his abilities.

So great was this transformation that his mentor Alain started to feel his age and invested in Bio-Implants to allow him to keep up with the young prodigy. He knew the kid was something special, with enormous potential that needed training to truly flourish. He started to train the boy in Savate as well as Parkour to give Gecko balance. Now his student could fight when he ought to and evade when he ought to.

He knew the boy secretly harboured a crush on him and subtly exploited this to keep Gecko in training without ever encouraging or acknowledging it. Alain is certain that it is just a harmless teenage thing that the boy will eventually grow out off.

As his training began to pay off subtle power shifts started to occur in his social life. His relatives and peers grew respectful and fearful of the boy's abilities. Most of his peers stopped chasing and tormenting him and those that did not stopped when he let them catch him a few times. Still, whilst unspoken and unconsummated, Gecko's unconventional lifestyle attitudes have caused much speculation and rumour. Whispers and cruel words are just as damaging as bullying and despite his new-found physical prowess he is still an outcast among his peers.

Alain has been carefully steering the boy towards the Shadows for years, seeing in them a glimmer of hope for his young protege. Just after the boy's Eighteenth birthday he helped the boy acquire 'financing' for some basic implants and gear necessary to pursue a career on the shady side of the law. Gecko moved out of his parents and into a loft apartment that serves as a communal home to Alain and a couple of the older Traceurs.

(A bit like Boddi's house in Point Break...)

I came up with this basic safe-house, it's an empty warehouse or industrial workshop space with plenty of room for gear, vehicles and a few cots for hiding out. Employ a guy who needs a roof over his head and food to eat to stay there and wear a security guard uniform.

Contacts

[ Spoiler ]

Contacts:
Michael Havel ��" Talismonger (Connection 3, Loyalty 5)
Human Talismonger, left Shiawase to start his own business. Michael was able to escape the streets and get into college thanks to Charlie’s father George. Right before her father’s death Charlie went to Michael about her recently awakened abilities. He has helped her get her foot in the door in the magical community, but he doesn’t really have what it takes to be her teacher. Charlie picked up all of her magical equipment from Mike with money from her dad’s life insurance. Mike used his connections in the community to put Charlie in touch with Marco Jonas, a local fixer.

Marco Jonas ��" Fixer (Connection 3, Loyalty 1)
Marco is a Troll Fixer running his operation out of a strip joint called the Boom Boom room. He seems to have his hand in all of the pies, and the few he doesn’t have a finger in he knows who does and when the right time is to wet his beak. He has been the source of all of Charlie’s mundane gear, he was especially useful in getting Charlie’s fake SIN. Charlie is hoping that Marco can set her up with a group of shadow runners that she can get into the Biz with, though she isn’t actually sure how all of that works.

History

[ Spoiler ]

Background:
Growing up Charlie Decker had things pretty good. She had a SIN and her father George earned a very good living as a talent scout for Shiawase’s Seattle operation. As much as she liked what her father’s money brought, Charlie just couldn’t see herself signing the sort of life-time commitment contract her father had. She knew she wouldn’t fit into the corporate world. No, for Charlie there would be excitement, adventure, and fun. Not wanting her dad to pressure her into signing up with the company when she awakened, Charlie hid it from her father.
Wanting to spring her abilities on him once she had developed them Charlie started hanging out with Mike Havel, a friend of the family and Talismonger who used to work for Shiawase. At this point the teenager almost cut out of high school completely spending all of her time diving into her magic trying to learn from Mike and his customers. She would buy spell formulae with her allowance, and then on one of the days where she went into school she actually cast one of her new spells to give the stuck up class president a really good time in the middle of the girl’s speech.
Shortly after the incident at school Charlie’s dad died in a car crash leaving her with a great deal of life insurance money, money that she intended to fund her magical studies in earnest. Putting her plan into action Charlie splurged on some Foci and magical texts. For almost a month after her parent’s death the only person to see her was Mike whenever she went to his store for supplies. Eventually though Charlie had to emerge, the money wouldn’t last forever so she needed to come up with a way to make some of her own since studying magic was far from a cheap.
Deciding that her studies and her time would be her own, Charlie made up a list of all of the things she thought a shadow runner could find useful. Armed with her list of things she would need Charlie reached out through Mike to a troll fixer named Jonas who could get her what she wanted. Once she had checked out all of the gear, she also let Jonas know that she was looking for employement.

Edit number many - In which case I'll put it back.

If the MBW and Razors are counted as a suite would that then reduce the essence loss and price as per the section in Augmentation?

If so I'll need to do a minor gear change to spend the extra cash.... Erm on a lifestyle I think. As I totally forgot one when working her out.... I've also done a minor skill swap as I forgot MBW gives a dodge bonus which I should really take advantage of given her poor body.

This should now cover the right amount of Nuyen and is as far as I can tell my final draft. If I've missed anything let me know and I'll fix it asap! Fixed the lack of Locksmith, added the augmented values for her stats in brackets for easy reference and did a tiny contact adjustment to make her fixer better but the Snitch worse. Both of whom will get names and backgrounds in her background when I post it.

[crizh]

OK, made some minor changes.

Took Savate instead of Boxing, fits better with the Parkour theme. Range for a Supersquirt is rubbish so I'm going with a modded Ingram SmartgunX which has much better ranges and is explicitly silent.

I'm still working on Gear and Background stuff.

Sorry, haven't done a PhysAd in years and obviously making up a character from scratch takes more time than just modding a pre-gen.

[bmcoomes]

Crizh: Oh your doing fine, it's looking good.

Oenone: it was fine that you had it here.

thanks,
Brent

[Divine Virus]

I can get you the character sheet tomorrow, or have I already lost my spot in this game?

[bmcoomes]

No you have not lost your spot, You are one of the ones I'm waiting on.

[Shalimar]

Is Charlie the only Magic, or is the Magic Adept summoner still in?

[Coldhand Jake]

Sorry, I failed to have listed that his custom commlink w/hot sim module was a cranial implant. I corrected that. He carries the throwaways jacked into his wrist, to broadcast whatever legal BS is needed in high security areas...his own high-powered internal machine is subscribed to the shitty one through DNI by default, so he can access all his good stuff, and when desparately needed, he'll bring the powerhouse implant onto Active or Passive to get some -real- work done. I should also mention that his contact who gave him access to his fine new headware is dead, so he's got no easy path to new upgrades and such. I'll be tightening up his numbers for easier reference today.

[bmcoomes]

Shalimar: it's looking like your the only magic, I'm going to have to make real life contact with my friends they don't seem to be checking there email at all. So like I said eariler it's first come first served.

Coldhand Jake: thats what I thought, and I remember reading that your one contact was dead.

Thanks,
Brent

[Shalimar]

If anyone else wants to do some magic I wouldn't think its a bad thing, Charlie is a little weak in combat, detection, well almost everything. Most of her spells are the type of thing a teen would find cool as opposed to being all that useful to a runner.

[Coldhand Jake]

Okay, since I don't know your style, I'll make sure to go ahead and note these on my sheet, as carried. My throwaway comms are Meta Links running Vector Xim. CHEAP ASS. They run standard utilities, Browse, Edit, etc, and contain squat useful. My Agent, tends to run on my implant, and serves as constant overwatch for hacks. My cyberarm, eyes, and ears are DNI-only. All wireless functions are OFF, and service RFIDs disabled. My cranial comm is my internal PAN hub, and must be hacked before you can get at my chrome.

This is stuff I usually keep in a saddlebag of my Scorpion, so as not to have to deal with the techno-primitive. This was mostly because I got sick of working with people without the decency to get a datajack, or in the middle of the damn woods. When I learn how many people I'm working with, I usually stock up to that number in basics.
* X sheets of electronic paper.
* X cheapass image-link/sound-link glasses/earbuds combos. Simple cameras and mics too.
* X pairs of AR gloves.
* X applications of Trode Paste.
* X extra throwaway comms with COLD sim modules for people who need them.
I'm a well-established guy with two girlfriends, both Awakened, who love to look over my shoulder. I'm used to this kind of situation.

And for me, in the bike:
* Satellite Uplink
* Holodisplay

I have a tendency to spend alot on downloads. ARE, video games, books, Linguasofts, Datasofts, Mapsofts, Knowsofts. No skillwires, yet, but I love the easy-access of Matrix info, and abuse it.

I load my shotgun with flechettes, it stays at home, or in the saddlebag when travelling. Same with the stun-baton. I carry the shock gloves and heavy revolver, it gets regular, legal ammo.

[Oenone]

Out of interest will the party have shared history?

Are we recently brought together for a job? If so should we have a shared contact who arranged it all?

Jake and DD are turning out to be at least acquaintances...we're trying to figure out if there's more. There's always the way I brought my last team together...they all subscribe to the same online service...like Second Life, or, well, here.

Out of interest which city are we set in?

We will be in Seattle, and the first run will hightlight most of the areas of the 4'th edition. So that I'm up to speed.

thanks,

[Shalimar]

I actually see this being Charlie's first run. It would be very easy to hook her in with Jake though given his contacts and desire to get back into the shadows. Knowing his intention to get back into the business Mei or Calista let Jake know about a young mage that is looking to break into the shadows. They set up a meeting between the two through Charlie's contact Michael. Jake (and DD if you want to include her) met with Charlie and decided to take her into the crew jake was building up.

It would be easy to bring in the two adepts into the group through Mei and Calista's incredible connection ratings. That would put Jake, DD, Ralph, Charlie, and Gecko together. This would be the first team run, but it would start out with us being a crew with an idea of each other's abilities.

[Coldhand Jake]

Well, Jake's basically an L.A. fixer, so alot of Cali runners know him and the girls. He has a wide variety of minor extended contacts, and it wouldn't be surprising if all the characters were within only 2 or 3 degrees of contact from him.

Horizon execs, corporate special forces, gun distributors, Rat shamans, chaos mages, gangers, porn directors, gamers, bartenders, bouncers, performers of both stage and stripper pole, Vory gun runners, physad social circles, hackers, old school deckers, the L.A. nightlife, CAS transplants, VR addicts, cyber/bio furries, neopagans and urban primitives, pack-minds, ... that's just people he could call without asking for a LTG number. Of course, those are like Loyalty 0 acquaintances...but names move fast in the shadows.

[crizh]

Gear and Lifestyle done.
