Okay folks here's the deal. This campaign will center around three guys known as The Blackthorne Brothers. The oldest is a stuffy human Doctor, the second is a cocky albino elf, and the third is a happy go lucky normal elf. The plot line revolves around the three of them putting together a gang of family and friends that come together for protection and to make nuyen.
Life on the streets of Seattle is tough in 2063. Who else are you going to trust and depend on if you don't have family/friends. The Blackthorne Brothers after a few years of running the shadows, botching jobs, running from Corps, and hiding from the Star have decided to put together a tight knit group of friends and family to meek out a living in the ever evolving sprawl. The brothers bought out a strip joint in the tourist section of the Barrens known as the G-string. With a few of their ex-girlfriends working the place, Fallon(the second oldest) running the bar, and Jaime(the youngest) in charge of advertising, and recruiting. The bar is quickly becoming a hot spot for runners. Fallon seems to have picked up an ear for hearing details that allow him to connect runners looking for jobs with Johnsons looking for runners. ------------------------------------------------------------ Now for the hardy stuff: Building Points= 123 Allowed books= 3rd Edition Sourcebooks Max flaws= 8 pts. Min. Essence Index= 1 Contacts= 1 free(one of the Brothers) Now I would prefer more background story than anything. I have been known to grant bonuses for those backgrounds that really catch my attention. If any one has any questions feel free to contact me and I'll be happy to discuss things with you. |

Ok, I've got my concept down. Character name is Trix. She works as a stripper at the club and is a part time hooker. Shes also an Otaku, but hasn't really used her abilities in a while, ever since she got kicked out of her tribe for using BTLs.

I've got an idea for an anti-Humanis elf gunslinger samurai. Do you think that would fit?

Abso- freakin-lutley just send me your ideas... If you want to send backgrounds first then later work on the number crunching that's fine...

This maybe a foolish question but how do they plan on making money? Runs? Scams? Is this a "Sopranos" type of set up? Deadline?

Masquerade might fit into this game pretty well. She is a shaman, specializing in impersonation and infiltration. She worked for Ares before, and has only recently started shadowrunning. I will PM her to you.

Is Bioware / Cultured Bioware available at startup?
Also, are you able to accept character sheets as .sr3 files? Need to know before putting the numbers together for Hex, a chain smoking, shotgun wielding Brit adept/face. |

Bioware is fine so is cultured as long as you pay for it. As for the file type I don't think I can take those... just pm me all the character sheets. I'm getting pretty good interest but because of the game style I will only be accepting 6-7 players...
So far it looks like we have an otaku, two shamans, and a possible samurai. Most are elves which is fine but I would like the rest to be other races... |

If the Otaku doesn't fit into the game well, just say the word. I can come up with ton of ideas, so I don't mind ditching this one. I just liked the background that I had for her.

I just normally try to stay away from PC's doing the matrix. It has a tendency to take away from the other player due to the extent for which that player and I have to post to each other. If you have something else use the same character and just change the class. Or whatever...

We got a Rigger? I just got an idea for a slightly insane Drone Rigger, but I'll need time to make the drones and come up with a good idea for the actual character.

Well, with so many elves, I don't think I will offer Ghost Dragon. So many elves is just... WEIRD.
Let me try and find the time to finish a human mage I was working on called Biomage. Ex-bodyguard who discovered he had astral abilities when his client was attacked and killed by a mage. Lost an arm, had it replaced with a cyber. Has bioware. Wants revenge! Can't find the mage. Has lost his sense of morality after being reminded of his own mortality. |

You know I'm normally a a pointed eared poser myself, but this many elves is highly unusual... Course I know why everyone plays them. Basically everyone just send me complete chracters(or at least backgrounds) and I'll let everyone know whose in or out. Those that have sent me characters your already in.
Bare with me people, my only access is at work for the time being some of my posting will be slow. I'm currently working on the opening. I hate to be cliche but you will all start in the G-string so you might come up with a reason why your character is there... unless your male then the reason is pretty obvious. :rotfl: |
