Sorry if I came off as bossy, that wasn't my purpose. I was just trying to stress the importance. If you guys don't think its something your character would have for whatever reason, then don't take one. Comm gear is just something that gets overlooks very often and I didn't want that to happen.

MacQ: Can we all get a set of comms gear free? I got to go redo Graves all over since I can't remember how much was spent on what and when. And given the dumb(no insult meant) nature of NSRCG, it is a real bitch for me to redo everything.

HMHVV--Changes can still be made until we go live. Once I start the IC thread, I'm going to set the characters in stone and they will have to act IC to get gear etc.

Toturi--Good luck!
Re: Toturi's suggestion for free comm gear...Everyone can add a Personal Comm Unit 6 to their characters. If you already have one, feel free to spend the cash elsewhere or have a backup because as we all know, shit happens. |

Toturi--The good luck was for re-doing it and getting it to actually work.
HMHVV--Add the bullets, as per above, changes can still be made until we go live. Sparky--At work, can't chat. |

McQ -- that's cool. I gotcha. Did you get my message, I had another mess of questions.
Basically - other bounty hunting team-type folks - I'm retooling Edana (oh yeah, her name sounds sorta like Edna, but with an 'uh' sound after the 'd' - /ED-uh-nuh/) to be a Spirit stalker. I want her to be hell-on-wheels in Astral Space and against spirits, so I'd appreciate any help you all can give me. Skills, spells, abilities - I'm just getting back into SR after well over ten years and never did much with magic before. McQ's been helpful, suggesting, amongst other things, Spirit Bolt and Blast for spells and Masking as a useful metamagic feat. I'll stick to just blasting spirits if others of you have better Astral combat abilities. I'm building Edana to have pretty disgusting Mental stats (Will of 8 or 9 - 9 if I go with albinism...McQ?) and not much in the way of meat-body stats. I'm also building an Ally Spirit with the 75 Karma left over from initiation and other stuff. I want to use all of it, so any help at all making him a truly horrific beast would be great. Thanks in advance. And stuff. |

Oh yeah...
Bastard, feel free to write Edana - call her Eddie - into your background. I'd like to know one of the team members rather well and be new to the rest. And also for this to be one of Edana's first jobs - if not THE first. With 100 karma and 130 points we're supposed to be tough, but Edana's a young 'un and all her vast experience got channeled into her ally Herne. So, really, she's a beefy starting character with a mean, mean friend. |

I got him to work! Yes! Yes! Yes! :D I added the Comm unit, no need for the freebie!
Edit: Free comm unit, more cash now. Grave's been amnesiac for half a year. During that time, he's done some bounty hunting. But he might be recognised by SWAT/HRT personel since he is one of the regular Delta members who travel around, swapping pointers with other spec ops teams. |

IC wise, Helios probably wouldn't have worked for a group long-term before now. Maybe on an individual-contract basis, but not long-term. |

Can you physads fight astrally? If not, is that going to be Eddie and Herne's responsibility?
For everybody - to make Herne the nastiest possible customer, would I be better off not initiating and sinking the extra 15 points into him (90 karma on him)? It would mean I don't get Masking to start, but I could initiate with you crazies or someone else and pick it up later... I ask because with a complexity of >15 Herne will not be improving via the Ritual of Change any time soon - possibly never. |

Grave cannot fight astrally, but he has Killing Hands at Serious. So any materialised spirit will have to contend with that.
Killing Hands S + Strength 10 + Full Offense = 10D |

Wow - so is it possible to force a spirit to materialize?
EDIT: Better yet... McQ -- Could I create a spell or spells that forces a spirit into or out of astral space? What sort of screwy broken things would that do? -What about one that traps a spirit in one place or the other (bars them from materializing or bars them from fleeing into astral)? -Or one that traps them in astral bands - like bind? |

JT is only an aspected shaman...cannot conjur. I am not really up to speed on all the high level magic, but I assume I can combat on the astral plane. Anyway...
Sparky--JT will initiate with your character later. HMHVV---Do you want me to write in Helios into the group as well? |

Heh... HH -- If McQ okays Edana being a screw WIL 9 albino, she'll be mildly allergic to your character. :)
