I always liked the dwelling of one of our mages... He dug himself a hole (a big one. with furniture) in the wall of an old metro station, and hired the resident ghouls for protection. The more intelligent ones keep the feral ones in line, and everybody gets to sleep in peace. We haven't had a break-in yet.
The payments are a bit *ahem* messy, but no arrangement is perfect (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

So far what it sounds like to me, as long as an arrangement is made with the locals then any sweet spot can be found... the issue is not killing the locals before you enter into what could prove to be a fruitful agreement with them. I just hope the local spirit folk in South West Puyallap are looking for some tenants, if not guess squatting like the rest will have to make do; just hope they don't mind all the air ratcheting and kaboom noises.

Hopefully the peaceful option will play out and keep from acquiring new enemies. Epically since the point of a hideout is to get away from enemies instead of having em at your back door.

That is some pretty classy doss. You know some of that crappy art from this age would probably sell for millions to some high society clowns in 2070. HAHAHA

PCs in my game have pooled their resources and basically have an small cavern built underground near a factory in Everett. The cavern faces Puget Sound and was carved out by a drake using his acid breath weapon and claws. One PC is Russian with ties to the Vory and is an arms smuggler. He's turned the factory into a front organisation called 'Dragonfly Shipping' (By Land, Air or Sea - We'll get it there!). The factory has a hidden tunnel underground which leads to the lair.
I have a large(ish) number of PCs (6) so the pool was significant. They've got dedicated astral wards, an AI with control of sensors and cameras, shapeshifter allies who monitor the local area, bribed the First Nations (and supply them arms) to protect their turf. They also have escape tunnels to the Ork Underground as well as Puget Sound. It is a fairly impressive setup they have all told. Having said that, I'm a fan of Fast and Furious for rigger hideouts too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) But lets be real, nothing beats the Batcave. - J. |

So are hideouts based off of the mechanic in the group normally or are there other aspects that you all have experienced? Outside of the fanciful high end societal meets at the waffle house? (you fukstick pompus ass queerboys and gals with a credstick that spans into the 4 didgets need not respond, at least to my post) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Don't be descriminatory. I've seen Dennys, Sheries, Perkins, Bennigans, and the Alehouse, along with the Waffle House. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/spin.gif) But just since you asked so nicely, art galleries, Irish pubs, churches, and a Kabuki theater are also popular. *grin* But those really are for meets (and planning sessions), not as "hideouts."

My PCs gather regularly at a cafe in downtown Seattle with their fixer called Cafe Del Mar. They gather there because it is a AAA neighborhood and find its a good place for neutral meets. I don't have a Denny's in my game. Instead, I called it 'Dannys' *chuckle*... - J. |

Instead of Starbucks, I call it Stormbucks. Seattle without Starbucks is like Disneyland without Mickey Mouse.

If I were to do a downtown Seattle meet, I would have to meet up at The Hurricane (Cafe). Thought it would be pretty great to meet up with your contact while waiting in line at Dick's.

Does anybody know if it's even possible for a party to live in the X Mansion?

Go ahead. Ideas are free. Besides parody should be trademark free.
