You might want to refer to Ancient History's website or the official Fanpro website I think.

It's in Dunky's will. You can find a copy on Ancient History's page, or the official shadowrun website.

In order to actually provide some useful information regarding the initial question in this thread...

Dunkelzahn's Secrets: Portfolio of a Dragon, p. 27
To further encourage an end to the use of blood magic by Aztechnology and other parties, I offer a bounty of 1 million nuyen on any blood mages captured alive and delivered to the Dunkelzahn Institute of Magical Research for the purposes of studying the effects of blood magic use on metahumanity. I further authorize the Draco Foundation to provide suitable rewards for the receipt of verifiable accounts of blood magic use, the rewards to reflect the usefulness of the information provided.

It's a document. Put up a page with careful instructions on how to search for words on a page (the Ctrl F command for you windows people).

Meanwhile, I've put together this. It doesn't have the search function, yet - probably tomorrow, but you can leave shadowtalk comments with each individual bequest. :)

More later.

How'd you do it, anyway? Looks like PHPBB2 with a lot of customization.

No. I have phpBB running as a forum, but the rest is all home-made scripts.

Have you checked out the character section yet?

Yeah, I did. Any news on when a registered user will be able to make a character to go with the Shadowland name?

Since the first moment the database went up, people have been asking me when they could add their own characters. The thing is, the characters in that database are active characters and non-player characters from my campaign. I suppose it wouldn't be that hard to add a check to the table in which the characters are stored so that we can differentiate between characters from my campaign and characters posted by the wRx members.

How much desire is there to have people upload their characters for online viewing? If there's enough want, I'll do it.

I, for one, definately wouldn't mind. It'd be quite nice to leave our own little chunk of what we invision ourselves as if we lived in 2060. There' have to be a checking system, though, to make sure you didn't manage to slip in that you're the leader of the world or something.

Maybe two separate lists, one containing PCs and NPCs from your group, and everybody else. I know this would be slightly more difficult, but it would get the point across quite nicely in the long run, methinks.

It's really not very hard, it's just that the only thing I'm a bit afraid of is bandwidth, and perhaps storage. If people go wild registering all kids of characters...

Also, would people like to see a charactersheet type of profile page, or would a profile page as they are now suffice?

Does anyone ahve any idea how much that would be worth?!?!?!?!?!?!

There's approximately 2,250 grams in five pounds, and 10 grams is the size of one unit of orichalcum (M&M p. 42 under Orichalcum). So that's about 20,000,000 nuyen.

Creating orichalcum is ridiculously easy, though. A grade 2 initiate with Enchanting 6 could make a simple 44,000 nuyen investment and easily get 528,000 nuyen out of it within a week. And that's assuming he didn't want to bother creating the copper, silver, mercury and gold radicals himself.

Thats funny i was under the impression that making orcalicum took 28 days no matter how much you make at one time weather it be 1 unit or 12. i belive the ruules for it are in MiTS

Oh, darn, that's such a drawback. Color me snapping my fingers disappointedly. Earning 484,000 nuyen per month as opposed to per week just isn't worth the effort.
