The Tom Dowd stuff you have on your site isn't canon is it?

Even if it isn't, it was there at the time Shadowrun was getting up to steam.

So the implication is that stuff was at least thought about, right?

Would this explain the second explosion?

And I've just reinvented the wheel, I'm sure.

I would imagine that is canon, after all in the Tir Tairngire sourcebook The Bog D mentions some people could have his head over a mantle and he's referring to Harlequin.

lol. The White Jesus has a point.

But back on topic. Perhaps whoever was running the show at the time (I believe Mike was the boss-man at that point) was hovering between something EI and what ended up happening. Not really true SR style, but plausible.

Some of the stories were released in pamphlets for SR is my understanding, while others appeared at other times, at least one was incorporated into an SR product. Be that as it may, there is no direct evidence that anyone tried to assassinate Dunky when he took his little trip from the limo; rumors of a small nuclear device not withstanding. :twirl:

Ancient History is correct. The story this refers to was originally published in a Shadowrun promotional flyer (though I don't recall if it was ever repubished in an actual product).

There was another story in which Harlequin and what many believe to be the Passion (from ED) Vestrial have a discussion that was originally published in a flyer which was later used in the adventure Harlequin's Back.

Now, does that mean that Harlequin had anything to do with Dunklezhan's death? I don't think so. Tom Down wrote that first story *years* before the idea of Dunky's death was ever considered. I always figured that Harlequin's comment referred to what he felt would have to be done in the eventual conflict between the IEs and the dragons.

Take Care,

Lou Prosperi
