Second round of recruitment for Shadow's dawn, Diving into the past Options

[Seth]

Shadow's Dawn is approaching the middle of the first story that I intend to run with an EarthDawn / Shadowrun crossover feel. Some of the players are keen Earthdawn players, others know nothing about it. We are playing mostly rules as written with a handful of house rules:

Unlike many games on Dumpshock it has not stopped after the first encounter with the bad guys, and I have every intention of continuing to GM it for the rest of the year.

We have active players:

• Alyena: Immortal Elf / horror hunter
• Bjeorn: Bear shifter / "He who walks through walls"
• Fearghas: Immortal Elf / A master of magic and the sword
• Mandala: Free spirit
• Murduk: Dwarf / A scholar
• Ryl drake / hacker

See here for details on the characters

I would like very much to have two or three more players: more players make for a more exciting time for all.

If you are interested can i get you to post on the recruitment thread

The story so far is fairly simple:

• Mostly against their wishes the players have been cooerced into infiltrating an Aztech research pyramid. Their job is to kill the person (Warder) who makes the wards, and stop internal forces from entering a room.
• They entered at the bottom of the building through a tunnel made by mighty magics, and control the basement of the pyramid
• They have repulsed the first Fast Response Group, lead by an awesome SwordMistress called Captain Zeia
• They have dealt with the person that made the wards
• They have completed the first "flashback" to remember important things, and remembered the command word for the door
• They have opened the door to the room that they need to guard

If everything was running smoothly they would just have to defend the room while the external forces attack...Although that might be challenging

Unfortunately everything is not going smoothly.

• Warder claimed that he and his master were expecting them
• It became clear that Warder did not make the most important ward. That ward is still up, and the external attacks are having no effect on it
• Imprisoned within the facility is a person called Angel, who is on the second floor of the pyramid. She has a relationship with an AI(?) called Zero who is helping the group. The group have kind of agreed to help Angel
• One of the computer defenders is a person called Jonathan. His wife is being held hostage, but as we speak a shadowrun is taking place to free his wife (arranged by Zero). So Jonathan is helping the group..in exchange for a rescue
