I was thinking we probably worked with you once or twice before, know your name or have a similar contact to connect us for a big job that has come up. Just want to get everyone on the same page. Im ready to cash in on some bounty eh.

My suggestion was that he's worked with several of you guys before on one or more bounties in which an Infected was the target, and that's how he knows you (or at least some of you).

Johnson do you want me to add in Tiny...and how long back do we go?

Well Tiny can go back 3 Years on Expiditions or even Bounty Hunts of any kind.

Tiny is a Large Troll who specializes in HTH backed up with Pistols amd SMG.
Use Shock Gloves and Stun Batons, if the traget is really Kick A## then the Dual Spurs will work.

I have just one problem when it comes to understanding English command over comms. English is on 1 Chinese on 3. Bad for Comms, if the team has been aroundfor a while maybe Eniglish and Chinese should be swopped. To be approved by McQ.

The next issue I wil have for the Battle Tach. Now Skill there. I have Good Karma to By the Skill if need be.
I have a Set of Shades 6K That imployes LL and Thermo. Yea I know I am a Troll and have Thermo a given.
McQ. I lose the middle lifestyle add it to the 6K from the shades plus lose the pocket secratary I can get the 12K Battle Tacunit at R 6 as per Ess.

ECC Please send me the stats of the Battle Tac Unit. if McQ Agrees on the changes.

I don't think you need the skill unless you plan on throwing your own tactics around. I know Ecc has a high skill in that, but as has been stated above, it may be nice to have multiple people with the skill if the group breaks into smaller sections.

It is ten minutes to 11:00 and it looks like everyone has already arrived at Bling Bling McShizzle's and ready to get down to business. You recognize most of the faces from the business, but you have only worked with a few on a limited bases. There are five others sitting at the long picnic like oak table. Its large enough to fit a few more and is well equipped with chilled glasses, cold beer(real not that soy drek), and assorted appetizers. The clean cut JT welcomes everyone with a warm smile and a full glass as each of them joins the party. His german shepherd, Kane, is sitting by his side as always. Now how is he always allowed to bring his damn dog into restaurants? JT waits for everyone to get situated with their drinks and food before he addresses the group.

"First things first. I know everyone here is used to working in small groups, or alone, but what we have planned will take a bit more. While I don't have specifics right now, our colleagues Bishop and Gonzales are negotiating with an employer as we speak. What I do know is that we will be well payed. We wont be under contract per say, but we will definitely have steady work.

"Let me introduce everyone. I think everyone knows me, maybe not directly, but through Gonzales or Bishop.

"Helios-the beers not gonna get away...you can slow down a bit. Not only does he have a specialty for downing the devils juice, but also for taking down the infected. Do you think you're up for it?

"In the paranormal animal hunting spectrum we have Charlie and Tiny-and of course with a name like that you'd have to be the biggest one in the room. Charlie can track those critters down, but the real talent their is how he wields his trusty crowbar. Good for stealin cars and killin prey.

"Grave, I have only worked with you once here in Seattle, but I've seen what you can do when you trained with us down in Sacramento back in '55. Not to mention Bishop holds you in high regard.

"Edana, Gonzales has told me so much...yet you still intrigue me. Of course hearing about your magical feats from a mudane may be misleading, but I have other sources. We will definitely need you on the team.

"If anyone is not interested, you need to stop guzzling my beer. Everyone else enjoy. I will be in contact as soon as I get word from my counterparts."

Thanks McQ

I am changing Eng and Chinese stats around.

He can kill spirits if they happen to materialize. However, that is not his specific area of expertise.

Sorry Charlie, I didnt realize that paranormals weren't your specialty. The only time we worked with you was that time we were hunting down that rougue sabertooth cat. I've heard you're an adept, though you have always denied it. The craziest thing I ever saw was when that sabertooth pounced on you, I thought you were a gonner. Instead you punched that fragger in the face while she was still in midair. I never seen an animal coldcocked like that! Now that was impressive, and hopefully you can see where I was mislead.

Neophyte Runner Group: Members Posts: 2,077 Joined: 14-September 04 Member No.: 6,658	McQ and others - I need a hand writing Herne. I don't have MitS (on order, will get it in a week or so - crossing my fingers) and I'm beginning to suspect that the Ally design rules are pretty different. At least assigning powers, anyway. Anyone help me out with Herne?

Jesus Freak Group: Dumpshocked Posts: 3,141 Joined: 23-April 04 From: Anaheim, CA Member No.: 6,274	Bishop is all done and ready to go. Oh wait, since everyone was provided with comms, I can buy one more BattleTac Reciever, which means I've got a reciever for everyone now. So don't worry about buying your own. Bishop will provide you with the gear (you get the idea that he is a take charge kinda guy like that). However, if anyone can get the cybered version, that would rock, cause you'll get more benefits from my tactics.

Neophyte Runner Group: Members Posts: 2,077 Joined: 14-September 04 Member No.: 6,658	Nice write up, Bastard. Did you want us to chime in with IC stuff? Is McShizzle's a Bounty Hunter analog to the 'Runner bars? SCENE A sub-street bar in Seattle. A dimly lit traditional bar gleams in the middle of a dark-paneled room. Patron's sit minding their beers and conversing, leered at by the heads of various para-critters stuffed and mounted on the walls. The front door swings open and a grizzled man with a crowbar saunters in and everyone looks up. ALL (shouting): Charlie! McQ - I need to know the costs of attributes, skills and powers for Ally spirits - specifically where the costs differ from SR2.

That or let it drop to starting cash. Though, with the write-ups, one of Charlie's contacts is Joe the Barkeep, of "Holy Fragglesnot!" Ork, not too charismatic, and likes to keep his glasses dirty. :P

Grand Nagus Group: Dumpshocked Posts: 4,115 Joined: 27-July 04 From: Almost Heaven Member No.: 6,518	Glad you like Tanka and Sparky-- Bling Bling McShizzles is kind of like a bar where you can order food...opposite of something like TGIFridays. Just needed a bar name, the only thing I had in particular for it was that is was a laid back kind of place, somewhere JT would go, since he is buying. I was going to write more detail about everyone...but didnt get enough info, so I went with the IC introduction to get everyone in the same place, and so everyone can get a feel for each other. Again, I hope I didnt cross anyones character personalities, I tried to use what I had gathered. Just wanted us to get situated at a group---cause I red to go. McQ---Are you cool with our meet? This would mean Mr Johnson or whoever is offering the job to Gonzales and Bishop, or at least setting up a later meet. Oh yeah, how much do I owe for grub and beer?
