OOC/IC : 2064, Building the Team (Closed Game) Options

[Sphynx]

Ok, let's begin by telling you how I intend to run the game. I will award 1 karma per week for everyone that posts at least 5 stories, on 5 seperate days, per week. Ie: PettyJoe waits to see what the others do. is definitely not acceptable. If your post is not at least half the length of my own post for that day, it won't qualify as a story-post. I'm a gamer here too, so entertain me, and I entertain back.

If you post as much as me in a week in total story telling, you'll easily receive 2 karma that week for your character. These karma rewards are in addition to the karma rewards for completed "runs".

Now the purpose of this thread is to get the approved characters and perfect them. You will have a chance now, to work on background. It is important in this OOC thread that you show me the detail of your storytelling capabilities. As such, you will need to be very lenient to each other. If someone else tells a story which includes you, support his story, don't bicker over it (unless the story was incredibly degrading). Therefore, as you tell a story, try to be nice about other characters, make sure you have a feel for their character, and don't assume they're panzies who sat quivering in fear as you saved the day.

These stories will build the team pre-game.

In addition to thiese IC posts of, now historical, moments between your characters, this thread will be used for me to comment on changes I think should be made to better integrate characters into the gmae once I open an IC thread, the 2nd week of January. At that time I will make an OOC thread, as well as an all new KARMA thread for giving karma and allowing you to state your expenditures.

I will continue evaluating your other possible team members for the next week, trying to get them to change things enough to fit the team. So expect new people to join in on posting as the week progresses.

Background
Ryan O'Shea was born in Tarislar on February 22th, 2039 during a fierce, week-long snowstorm. He never knew his father, and though his mother never spoke of him, Ryan suspected that he died during the Night of Rage. His mother Sylvia working 16-hour days cleaning for whoever would hire her to provide for the two of them, hardly spent any time at home at all. Consequently, Ryan grew up on the streets of the Elven slum. He would have stayed there, living and dying in obscurity if it wasn't for the Ancients mage, Flick, who discovered his potential for magic early in Ryan's 9th year.

Flick proceeded to act as his guardian, especially after Sylvia died in the fall of 2051, seeing to his schooling and even acquiring a legitimate SIN for the young mage. Ryan eventually enrolled at the University of Washington (U-Dub], where he pursued a curriculum of law as well as thaumaturgy. It was through Flick that Ryan met up with Dr. Linda Modine, who's Bellevue clinical services have come in handy on several occasions.

While he was at U-Dub, Ryan was inducted into the Ancients, and learned of the various schisms inside the Elven gang. Flick arranged for Ryan to spend time in Tir Tairngire, learning about the Elven ways and traditions, as well as furthering his education, both mundane and magical. While he was there, Ryan discovered he felt an affinity for the people of the Tir, and was appalled at the political situation and how it affected their way of life. He met several influential friends of the Ancients, liaisons of a sort for the faction of the Ancients that is closely allied with the Elven government. He also met with representatives of those who would bring the tyrannical rulers down, Rinelle ke'Tesrae. This went a long way in furthering his own opinion of the need for the Ancients to step up their efforts against the ruling class of the Tir. This opinion was, and still is somewhat contentious amongst the Ancients in general, and so Ryan keeps his true loyalties close to his chest, revealing them only when he is sure that the reaction will be positive.

During his second year at the university, he came into contact with a new professor, one Dr. Steven Knox. Dr. Knox was troubled at first by the thought of Ryan sacrificing some of his magical potential with the Bio-Implants, but soon the formed a bond in their enthusiasm for Magic. Knox arranged a meeting with the reclusive Talismonger, Sasha Harris, to whom Ryan immediately took a shine.

While technically a full member of the Ancients, over time Flick had managed to help distance Ryan from the mainstream, but things changed one day when Ryan, his cover was almost blown while attempting to further his semi-private anti-Tir agenda. It was thought best if he put even more distance between himself and the Ancients, and especially Tir Tairngire, this time geographically as well as figuratively, and with Flick's help he abruptly relocated to the Denver sprawl. Totally cut off from his previous life and all his contacts, Ryan adopted the street name Gypsy, and in almost no time ended up on the payroll of the biggest player in town.

Ryan O'Shea is short for an Elf, standing barely over 6 foot in height, though he does have the typical Elven figure, a thin, wiry frame. He usually keeps his long golden blonde hair pulled back into a ponytail, and has piercing lavender eyes that some people take for cyber at first glance, before noticing the sparkle of life that would otherwise be absent from replacements. Ryan's taste in clothing tends towards trendy street attire, but he appears equally at ease dressed in conservative corporate fashion. His spell selection reflects his experiences as a youth on the streets of Tarislar as well as his time spent at university, and is not necessarily geared towards combat.

Excellent, we begin here.... :P

I see Force-2 Exclusives, so am assuming you paid 0 SpellPoints for those. I know you've read all my posts against allowing that. :P Have to spend at least 1 spell point to get a spell (Ie: as per canon, you have to 'buy' each spell). Since I like a team having a wide array of spells in at least one person though, I'll create a Character-House-Rule (Ie: This character only). 5 BP will raise you from 35 starting spell points to 50 starting spell points. Personal recommendation would be, rather than pick up more flaws, drop the Bonus Int as well as your Quickness by 1, and drop Aura Reading (a relatively useless skill from a numbers perspective). I'd also recommend trying to squeeze out a couple more points for cash and getting cybereyes with mag (LOS is very important). But that's totally up to you, I realize alot of people prefer the lower mods for having natural eyes in certain situations.

Background looks ok, so no real comments there, I'll wait to see some history-stories to comment on possible changes there.

There once was a boy that for many reasons, people called Mouse. He was quiet, easy to overlook, small, quick but observant. No detail escaped his wide eyes. He lived in Chicago, and when the bugs came, he died there. That might be a detail that would surprise many people since they still saw him walking about, but Mouse, along with the rest of his family, died trying to gain refuge in the Wrigley dome. The last thing Mouse saw was the wasps descending on his family, and then there was a blinding pain, then nothing.

The boy who used to be Mouse woke up in a jury rigged hospital in Wrigley Dome. It was dark. The doctor said that he was lucky to be alive. The caravan had made it within sight of the Dome when the Wasps attacked. A team had been sent out to try and save them, but he had been the only survivor, barely. His head been smashed against the ground, almost split open. His eyes and ears had been destroyed. The doctor had given him cyber ears from a woman who didn't need them anymore, but there were no spare eyes, yet. The doctor asked him what his name was.

The boy did not know. Mouse had died outside the dome. He was sure of that much. Just like that woman hadn't needed her ears, Mouse hadn't needed his body, and so it had been given to him.

Soon enough, someone didn't need their eyes anymore, and the doctor gave them to the boy. It was was Mouse's face he saw in the mirror. He hoped that wherever Mouse was, he didn't mind him using it.

He tried many different things, thinking that when he did that one right thing, he would find out who he was. When help was needed in the soup lines, he became a cook, a very good cook. When an extra guard was needed to man the street entrances, he became a guard, and he did that job well too. When builders were needed to reinforce blockades and barriers, he became a builder.

The people who ran the Dome noticed how well the boy could become other people. He was afraid that they'd make him give back Mouse's body, and was surprised when they told him they were proud of his talent. They were delighted with how well he could become someone else, and the boy started to realize that being no one at all wasn't so bad, because it presented him with the possibility to become anyone. They sent him to the Sanctum, and Volkesville, and he told them what he saw. Then they told the doctor to install the chipjack, and it became even easier to become someone else. All he had to do was slot a chip, and he could slip into the Volk territory, and no one there could tell that he hadn't been raised embracing the Humanis cause. He was sent all over Chicago, to watch, and remember, and report. He learned how to become other races, as well as other people. Elves were easy. Orks were a little harder. He could even pretend to be a dwarf, until he grew too much. He thought of himself as many people during that time, and called himself many names, but sometimes, he just thought of himself as that little piece of 'ware in his head, and called himself Jack.

Finally, the wall came down, and the people at Wrigley didn't need their jury rigged Jack anymore. That was okay. He had learned that there were lots of people out there who could use someone who could become anyone, and remember so many things. He could walk into a building, just to use the restroom for a moment and then walk out, and draw of map of everything he'd seen. He could change his voice, his manners, his looks, and become so many other people. He could slip in almost anywhere, and no one could tell that he didn't belong.

His skills took him to Denver, where he was hired by a team that needed a good recon man. They needed to get into an office building, and pull someone out. He posed as a courier, sweet talking the lobby receptionist into letting him in, allowing him to see the security codes she used. He found the quickest, quietest route the team could take to the target. Later in the evening he returned, dressed as a suit, and fast talked the security guard into letting him in. Then using the codes, he let the rest of the team in. They then completly ignored the route he had planned. That lead to a small fight with secruity, that lead to a big fight with security. There was no use in being anybody, so Jack became nobody, unnoticed by everybody else. When the fight was over, he became Jack again, and slowly raised his hands, and said, "Excuse me. I surrender."

He was detained for several weeks and throroughly debriefed. Whoever was in charge though, decided that his skills might be useful because he was given the 'choice' of taking new employment. Jack of course accepted, but after getting back out into the open air of Denver he discovered that none of his former colleagues would have anything to do with them. Apprently someone was taking offense at the fact he had managed to be the sole survivor of that last run.

I'll repeat my query over whether having a car is appropriate for this game or not. Also, as for the establishing backgrounds for our characters working together, how much do we know about what we do in Denver? Do we know that we're working for Ghostwalker? Does he gives us orders directly, do we have a Johnson who drops lots of hints about who our Big Boss is, or are we completly in the dark? Do we all hang out in the Ghost-cave until it's time for another run, or do go about our seperate lives until we get that phone call, telling us it's time to go to work again?

I think that issues like that need to be laid down by the GM so we know where our starting point is.

[Sphynx]

Sandoval. Yeah, you're in, but let's discuss some possible changes and then I'll answer your questions. First, some recommendations:

Drop Skillwires to 4 (you only have 1 rating 6, and considering the costs of softs, it's not likely you'll see too many softs higher than 4 in-game). That'd save you a quad-load of nuyen I think (about 130k).

Also, I have a hard time with Athletics as a Soft. For my own personal satisfaction, you might consider changing that with your Artistry skill, since Athletics is something that your body trains more than your mind.

Your questions:

How much do you know about what you do in Denver: As much as you decide to know. As I said, that part of the story is up to you guys. If you decide you're the Advisors to Ghostwalker and he knows nothing without going through you, so be it (though that seems a bit outside the realm of possibility :P)

Do you know you're working for GhostWalker? Up to your character(s). As I said, that part of the story is up to you guys.

Does he give orders directly, do we have a Johnson, or completely in the dark. Up to your character(s). As I said, that part of the story is up to you guys.

(I think you get the picture here.... I hope?)

Anyhows, by the first IC post, you will no longer be working for GhostWalker as my first IC post will be a VERY long storyline that leads you into the game. ANYTHING prior to my IC post is acceptable to me, my only limitations are you must be a TEAM on extremely FRIENDly terms with each other, having each others backs throughout this "GM Screwing the Players" phase of the game. Don't worry about what will happen afterwards, or if something is ok from before. ;)

Background:
The only thing harder then getting rid of a SIN, is getting one in the first place. Especially if your parents never had one. And you where born in the back of a VW van. On the side of I-191. Somewhere between Tucson and Phoenix. Not that it mattered to the caravan of freelance vagabonds that Tevos calls his extended family. It was a birth, and a good reason to party. Youth was spent enjoying life on the road, ducking patrols in Pueblo CC, learning some trade, learning his culture, and talking to his imaginary friends. Which one day decided to stop being imaginary. Being the first awakened child in a camp was something that had both its up and its down sides. To his annoyance, people where always asking him to cast a spell, which he never figured out. His real solace was suddenly being able to actually talk to the wind, the earth, and the water. The _______ eventually decided that while little Tev was an asset, after a falling out with a wind sprit, he was a liability as well. A questionable arrangement was made with a Sioux settlement that left Tev in their care to learn better control of the sprits around him. Apparently, he was a star pupil, as it was only seven short years before he took his first vision quest, spending 3 days alone with just the Fox to guide him. He took his leave of the tribe shortly after, due to political problems. After, he wandered for a few years, eventually ending up in Denver, and with the assistance of ‘ an employment agency’ was doing quazi-legal work for good money.


Sketch:
Tev is generally a nice guy, until you cross him, at which point the gloves come off and it gets ended usually right there, however getting Tev to that point takes some serious effort. Some people have called him a little loose in the head; he calls it talking to the sprits (which he does quite often, with mixed reactions from the sprits themselves). Dogs though, let’s leave it at a bad experience.

Small changes, scratched enchanting and unarmed in favor of other stuff..
Also, as I cant find it, wanna give me a price on a rating 3 set of safe cracking tools?
Personally Id like to work for the Pale One, but not directly. yet. Something fun to find out IC.

CODENAME: The prometheus Project

Entry 1:
I Doctor Keil have begun progress on the prometheis project as of March 22 2040. Beginning test subjects include 4 male 4 female. All Ages 5-10. This project has been developed for the purpose of creating the ultimate soldier. Many attempts at this have been made over the past century and using data collected from both before and after the "awakening" i plan to use both the benefit of magic and technology to aid me and my team in our task. The UCAS has commitioned me to hence forth keep a journal of events incase anything should happen to me or the project. This journal is class A classified.

The start of this project with 8 test subjects 2 of which (one female and one male ) have been found to be awakened so cybertechnology will no longer be implanted into them unless absolulty nessecary, these subjects will undergo several procedures to give them "super human" abilitys. First they will undergo what an injection of muslcle strentheners which have just been developed for military use, these are all one of a kind generated for the user by growing specialy made chemical bases from thier own cells and enhancing them. Next they will undergo several Neurological procedures that will tamper slightly with brainwaves which in theory will enhance thier intelegence by giving them the ability to use all of thier brain. This has been tested on many primitive species and the results have been acceptable by standards to move to human beings. the third and final procedure will be a Spiritual one where a circle of Mages will bring the subjects to teh Astral realm and feed magic into thier spirits through methods that have been recomened by a dragon that does not wish to be named here.

These procedures will be inserted in detail later in the script.

from here the docter goes on and on and on about science CRAP which if you would liek to see you can click the link at the END of this post to gain more information chummer but if u cant read what appears to be some kind of code that even i cant crack your pretty SOL. i will leave it up in case any of you other hot shots feel like giving it a go but beware there is some nasty ice in there waiting to bite you in the ass, and frankly i don't feel like dealing with it again for 14 hours which is how long it took me to get around the bloody thing in the first place. The rest of this post is clips that i felt were most important... be ready for the ride i dont know what drek this doc was on

Entry 398:
After many long hard months we have finnaly gotten 2 of the tests to work in 85% of subjects. Our recruiting has begun to slow and we are now only taking the best and the brightest, god help us if thier parents ever find out the replacment is a clone. The brain enhancement after a few changes has worked nicely although side effects seem to be all to common the ones that do make it clean are far more intellegent and one of the Subjects #294 has gained masive jumps form the steps he started with. The young orc did have some problems with the muscle enhancement which has turned the pigment of his skin a slightly green color as if now he were a true fantasy orc. Strange how things happen. His body has mostly rejected the muslcle ehancement but with the great strides he has made in mental abilitys the risk of another procedure has been deemed to great, i believe he will make a fine soldier once he is properly cybernetically enanced. The spiritual enhancement has yet to suceed even with the dragons help it has killed over 93% of subjects that has been submited to it and the few that survive have been... changed somehow and with no visible bonus afterword only 3, 187 294 and 401 have come out alive and well with no effects. That part of the program has been put on hold until we can find what is wrong maybe the power of te magics that they do not posses innatly is to much for them and for the mages its a overload of the system.

Entry: 1003
Today im proud to say teh trainign for the surviving 83 units has begun. we have brought int he best military trainers in the nation to make these cadets honed killers.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(cut to journal of 12 year old Steven McDougal.)
This expert is from a atteched vid file of one of the training sessions... this is some brutal stuff here folks. Tal
The group of yound men crested the hill after a rude awakening and a "brisk" 5 mile run with thier commanding officer Sergent Pould. Even after 3 weeks the children, though they did not look it anymore, were still not used to the lack of sleep and what seemed like endless trainign and torture. Slowly though they were becoming machines. Many alreayd had cybernetic enhancments but Steve still hadnt gotten his turn to enhance himself. Todays exercise seemed to be different somehow there were no visible traps no regiment of men with Paint guns ready to run them through the forest and pelt them to the ground bruised and broken if they caught them today was just a field with tall grass and a surrounding forest.
"today, we see just how good you can really be" Exclaimed Poul. "Team up units of 5."
Steve looked to the few friends he had made thus far, Jenny a lengthy girl slightly taller then steve with a glare that could cut stone. She always seemed to be off in a different world. Fred, a troll youth with biceps the size of Steves thigh. Karl a average human youth and of corse Prelisa a elven awakened in training to be a mage.

"this test will be simple, kill your enemys, each of you will be givin a weapon of your choosing loaded with stun rounds. These weapons are non leathal but have been knowed to severly hurt people. Each unit will be flown to a designated area and droped. The last unit to survive this grand melee gets the honors of being squad commanders for each unit that will be formed after this drill is complete. Good luck."

Steve chose a shotgun opting for a close range weapon with slugs since Jen had taken a sniper rifle, fred got a set of pistols and a bo stick the sizer and shape of a katana, Karl went with a SMG and a pistol and Pre just went with a good old Foci.

The drop was iun the middle of a swamp area where they immediatly engage a group of youths from thier west, which lucky enough had chosen mostly hand to hand weapons with 2 snipers in support. Pre put a barrier between us and them and Frank made bruised piles as the 3 humans with stalves engaged him. i took down out with a slug to the forehead as he rushed at Fred and Karl sprayed down a sniper that hadnt taken up good enough cover. the fight was over before it started with 4 of them down and one running for his life.

We decided to take up a post in a nearby pond where the tees were think and Jen was able to get a nice sniper position up in a oak. The next unit to engage us was caught in total surprise as they chased away 2 members of a unit they had been taking down. Withing the first few seconds 2 of thier number were down from sniuper shots and another was pressed har as frank jumped on him from a low hanging tree. i myself decided they had it under control and kept watch of the area. Hours passed and fighting had all but died down. We made our way to the Drop area fully relaizing that the Marines were making a ever tightening circle arounfd the area and if they saw anyone we would be down before we knew what to do.

Once we were bak at the clearing we found a com unit posted to a tree, across the screen rolled 3 units left. That left us in good shape with all 5 members still up and only 2 compeditors out there. Luck kept with us as a fool scout for one of the units made his way across the field to the LZ then back to where his buddys were. We took a roundabout route over to the area we had seen the scout go back into and set up our slow ambush. We found 3 people sitting together disscussing something with thier backs turned to thier surruondings, i mean how stupid can you be? We decided just to charge them and whipe them out asap but as we charged in surpise wasnt on our side the moment we came into view the 3 youths went into barrel rolls before we could pull off a good shot and we foun ourselves completely surruoned by 9 enemys... the drek sucking bastards had teamed up to take us down. We fought valiantly , taking down 4 of them and makign it a easy win for the unit with 3 remaining memebrs to whipe out what was left of the last unit.


I did manage to crack some of the code but its still not translated well enough so im just gonan give you the gist of what i got from it. some time after the past events the top 3 units including Steves were sent into hostile teretory something about a assassination. the problem seems to be they didnt know thats what they were doing and well they werent sapose to find out. It seems they did. Instead of blowing some kind of facility in god knows where they abandoned the mission killed several marines and stole alot of UCAS equiptment. No direct details on what happened but there was one marines testimony i manged to get bits and pieces out of and it would seem that Steve who no one thought to be awakened turned out to be a hell of a powerfull mage. He did some serious damage to alot of the militarys assets and the secet base which again no idea where it is lost alot of records that these guys stole. Steve seemed not to be the leader of it all but was definitly in on it. Thats all for now folks ill get you more when i can. Tal.

Personality--
Gremish is ex military experiment but has grown up his entire life int eh military and knows no other way to act. He is very mindfull NOT to kill civies unless they attack him he is very self concouis about being caught and taken back to the hell he has lived in for most of his life and with that in mind he will do anything but hurt innocents to not go back. Gremish is a hard hittin leader hes been on top of his game for years and doesnt plan on droping out now hes got to many secrets he needs to reveal t the public without causing riots and anyhting else that innocents might get hurt in. He has joined the Shadows for the simplistic purpose of making cash. Hes good at the running game because he knows how its played and he sure as hell cant get a real job... plus he kinda likes blowing away some of the scum of the universe and show "the man" that hes still vulnerable.

Cool Concept, just run a spell checker before you post it. There where enough errors to bug even me (and I cant spell for baens)

[Sphynx]

Lindt:

[ Spoiler ]

My only 'issue' is the guns and gun skillz. They don't particularly seem in-character. However, they might be needed as a backup skillset due to only having conjuring, so might wanna include the guns into the background a bit.

Gremish:

[ Spoiler ]

What is Hypnotism? I've never seen game mechanics for that anywhere, where is it?

What is HyMy real concern is the sporadic spell list. I go for a 'theme' feel when I admit characters, and although I like the Goblin look, the spell list has no thematic feel. To make it worse, the character could cast about 3 of the spells before passing out (they're mostly high-drain spells), and would pass out on every attempt to cast a couple of them. If you look at Hunter's character, you see a finely themed character, where I could even guess what his next spells would be if he chose to learn more. Fortunes isn't as defined, but it becomes clear through perusal that he provides mostly backup support (out of combat spells abound). Kinda a Doc/Tech theme.

My personal suggestion is to sit back and think on the character a bit more. Practice cast your spells and see what kinda drain you are taking. More importantly, try to get a list of spells that fits the character. Maybe even focus on the Goblin theme (since that's what attracted the GM to the character) and build a spell list that resemble the ideas of a Goblin. Also, a small bit of help on min-maxxing some, take odd-number force spells (since drain rounds down). If you really want a spell that endures, a 5 is a good level to have, the +1 TN for drain for a Force 6 is a huge jump. Also, consider Sustaining Foci. A Force 6 Inc Reflexes will put you at, at LEAST, Serious Stun (+3 to all TN) in addition to a +2 for sustaining the spell while performing other actions. +5 will kill you every time. That's why Fortune took Force 1 on Imp Inv and Reflexes. Admittedly, his spells drop everytime there's any sort of mana burp or barrier, but he can recast due to lower drain levels, the spell being self-only, and a Trauma Dampener, and take little to no drain.

Anyhows, I'll gladly help work on your character more if you like, as would most of the other more veteran players I think. Ask away.

20 questions

[ Spoiler ]

What is the character's name? James Whately aka Dogma

Character's sex? Male

Character's physical size? Slighlty above average race height

What is the color of the character's hair, eyes and skin? Blue eyes, blond hair worn in long dreadlocks tied in a pony tail, tanned skin colour (hey, charisma 7 after all)

What is the character's general appearance? Dogma radiates confidence in himself, but his eyes have the glint of one that sees others as means to an end. He is always respectful to others, but by looking in those eyes you know you mean nothing to him. He dresses in the latest fashion (like the clothes in The Matrix)

Where were you born? Born and bred in Denver

When? 2044, making him 20.

Does the character have any family? His parents are still alive. Father is human and mother is an elf. No siblings. Since he was thrown out of the house by his parents, he hasn't had much to say to them. At first Dogma did what he did to prove to his father he was worth something, to "show him". But the point is a little passé now. Ideas of reconciling with his parents are gone, though, in a way, deep down, he'll always be trying to prove his father wrong.

Where or how was the character educated? Exclusive corp-sponsered private boarding school.

What did the character do for a living previously? He never had a 'job'. He's always been pedling illegal goods ranging from exam questions, smokes, light drugs in his early days to intelligence and anything that can turn a profit these days.

Who is hunting the character and why? No one... the cops maybe, as much as they do any shadowrunner.

Does the character have any political beliefs? Religious? Nope. He believes in one thing, and that's looking out for number 1. Anything to survive, anything to make money.

What is the character moral code? No needless harm. Especially to the "innocents". Criminals hurting criminals or extracting some fat suit piggy is one thing, but hurting "normal" people is just tasteless. As for women, obviously he can pick them up WAY easy, so in the manner of the good looking, he doesn't have much respect for "chicks" and seeks out challenges.

Does the character have any goals? Be a respected fixer.

What led the character to join Ghostwalker's team? Ghostie made him an offer he couldn't refuse. Dogma was smart enough to realise who the new boss in town was early on, and the Dragon would provide him opportunities to increase his power in the streets. "Never deal with a dragon"? Well, "never trust an elf", chummer. There is a mutual understanding (as in, you screw up, I eat you).

What is the character's personality? A born wheeler and dealer, an entrepreneur. Always looking for opportunity and secrets to trade in for power. He has class and acts refined, which leads most people to say "typical elf". He has a hint of intellectual superiority arrogance.

What is the character very good at? Making deals and always having the intel edge.

Are there certain things the character just can t do? Meaningful relationships are hard for someone who's never learned how to love.

What does the character hate? Spiders. They're nasty.

What does the character love? Money and power.

Is there anything else I should know? There's always more you should know, grasshoper.

Background

[ Spoiler ]

Dogma had it easy as a child, his parents being upper middle class corporate managers. His parents suscribed to the "let technology raise my child" line of thought. Chronically starved for attention, Dogma was a troubled child who never had the solid love of his parents to ground him. Being a smart, but cold and ruthless, child he quickly learned to manipulate others to get what he wanted. This led to him dealing in exam answers and other illicit goods in his private college dorm, but he was eventually pinched and kicked out of school. This led, of course, to a big fight with his parents who on one hand couldn't accept the shame that their son was a bad apple, and on the other hand that they had failed as parents.

Dishoned, Dogma turned his back on his parents and left behind his past monetary comfort. He found it hard to live in such near poverty, and so quickly picked up his old habits of wheeling and deeling, except higher up in the hierarchy of illegality. Well on his way to becoming a full fledged fixer, Dogma is presently the man that gets his shadowrunning team the gear and, more importantly, information they need to succeed in their contracts.

Shadowland(Lv2) and the Nexus(Lv2)
Not much to say. The essential meeting spots for the true shadowrunners.

Decker(Lv2)
Dogma uses the decker known as "Pixel" for most of his matrix related needs. Dogma dumps quite a bit of work and money on her, so they definatly have history. Of course the woman (girl even, she can'tc be much older than 18!) has a crush on the beautiful elf, but so does everyone else, so Dogma isn't really interested, and she knows he's out of her league. Dogma threads carefully around the decker's feelings, because hell hath no wrath like that of a woman scorned. He treats her fairly, so she accepts that he has no feelings for her. Still, doesn't stop her from flirting every now and then, sometimes just to see the elf squirm!

Fixer(Lv1)
"Broken Tom" is, uniquely enough, a Troll fixer. Trolls don't usually have the quick wit and savvy to make it to the top, and that's exactly the kind of thought what Broken Tom used against his enemies to make it to his fixer position. So called because of the numerous scars crossing the the deep leathery skin of his face like a cracked windshield, Broken Tom upholds the finest traditions of "fixing" by dealing left and right. He is an intelligent, well-educated, very patient and calm individual, which makes him deadly to those who cross him.

Info Broker(lv2)
"Brakovitch" is an excellent contact for Dogma. The two regularly trade information. Dogma has only ever met Brakovitch on the Matrix, which suits both parties just fine. Brakovitch always has his mind divided between several different ideas and his thoughts always seem to be racing at 300 miles an hour. A complete info junkie. He'll be explaining intricate details about a certain underworld characters latest bid for power while simultaneously cheking the weather forecast.

Fence(lv1)
"Easy Larry" will buy just about any physical thing. Not information, though. Dogma goes to him whenever he has something he can't unload anywhere else. It's kinda like a discount outlet. The prices Larry gives him suck, but he'll buy anything.

Denver police force officer (lv1)
A cop on the take that Dogma has learned about. Their relationship is strictly business. Dogma only knows him as "X". However, a certain payment trust exists between them. X will leave tips on incoming arrests or other police matters in Dogma's mailbox, assuming he will be paid accordingly. Dogma doesn't fuck around with that kind of trust, and always makes prompt payment for information. He can also leave special requests in an anonymous mailbox for the cop.

Illuminaty member(lv1)
Sorror Mystika does NOT strike a person as the typical hermetic Illuminaty member. The blond California-born valley girl looks and acts completely like a brain-dead surfer girl. But Dogma knows better. This slitch is as power-hungry as he is and he can trust her as far as he can throw an overweight troll. However, the information flows both ways between them, and she's an unparalled source of information when it comes to secrets and conspiracies. Dogma just has to accept he gets used to further the girl's own plans every now and then. You can't lie in bed with the devil and expect not to get fucked. Which is something they occasionnaly do, anyway. At least she's good in bed.

Edit: Argh, every time I edit one of my spoilers section disapears!!

[Backgammon]

Ok, I think I'm trying to fit too much text into 1 posting... it seems to be holding, but if I try to edit my post it goes bonkers and eats half my post. I'll write a background short sotry for you Sphynx shortly.

[Sandoval Smith]

Hey Backgammon, having more than one set of spoilers codes in a post really seems to mess up the edit function. FYI.

Sorry if I seem to be jumping all over this thread, but a sprained ankle + lots of ice outside = me spending a lot of time on the computer. I dropped the skillwires down to 5, since I had a few specialized chips in there (driving, performance/acting etc), and with the extra money, rounded out the knowledge and linguasofts that I thought would be useful. I took Biotech off his skill list (and made it a chip) to make room for Athletics.

For those of you just joining in, Jack is almost a Shadowrun take on the 'Pretender.' He slots a few chips, and can try and become anyone he wants, and needs to be (although unlike an actual Pretender, limited headware means he can only use a couple of those chips at once; he has to be very careful about what he uploads for a job, or else he might find himself able to perform field surgery when what he really needs is Pistols). The fact that his head is a big, black hole in the astral plane can also make his subterfuge attempts diffulcult to slip past Awakened observers.

Below, are his finalized stats.

There once was a boy that for many reasons, people called Mouse. He was quiet, easy to overlook, small, quick but observant. No detail escaped his wide eyes. He lived in Chicago, and when the bugs came, he died there. That might be a detail that would surprise many people since they still saw him walking about, but Mouse, along with the rest of his family, died trying to gain refuge in the Wrigley dome. The last thing Mouse saw was the wasps descending on his family, and then there was a blinding pain, then nothing.

The boy who used to be Mouse woke up in a jury rigged hospital in Wrigley Dome. It was dark. The doctor said that he was lucky to be alive. The caravan had made it within sight of the Dome when the Wasps attacked. A team had been sent out to try and save them, but he had been the only survivor, barely. His head been smashed against the ground, almost split open. His eyes and ears had been destroyed. The doctor had given him cyber ears from a woman who didn't need them anymore, but there were no spare eyes, yet. The doctor asked him what his name was.

The boy did not know. Mouse had died outside the dome. He was sure of that much. Just like that woman hadn't needed her ears, Mouse hadn't needed his body, and so it had been given to him.

Soon enough, someone didn't need their eyes anymore, and the doctor gave them to the boy. It was was Mouse's face he saw in the mirror. He hoped that wherever Mouse was, he didn't mind him using it.

He tried many different things, thinking that when he did that one right thing, he would find out who he was. When help was needed in the soup lines, he became a cook, a very good cook. When an extra guard was needed to man the street entrances, he became a guard, and he did that job well too. When builders were needed to reinforce blockades and barriers, he became a builder.

The people who ran the Dome noticed how well the boy could become other people. He was afraid that they'd make him give back Mouse's body, and was surprised when they told him they were proud of his talent. They were delighted with how well he could become someone else, and the boy started to realize that being no one at all wasn't so bad, because it presented him with the possibility to become anyone. They sent him to the Sanctum, and Volkesville, and he told them what he saw. Then they told the doctor to install the chipjack, and it became even easier to become someone else. All he had to do was slot a chip, and he could slip into the Volk territory, and no one there could tell that he hadn't been raised embracing the Humanis cause. He was sent all over Chicago, to watch, and remember, and report. He learned how to become other races, as well as other people. Elves were easy. Orks were a little harder. He could even pretend to be a dwarf, until he grew too much. He thought of himself as many people during that time, and called himself many names, but sometimes, he just thought of himself as that little piece of 'ware in his head, and called himself Jack.

Finally, the wall came down, and the people at Wrigley didn't need their jury rigged Jack anymore. That was okay. He had learned that there were lots of people out there who could use someone who could become anyone, and remember so many things. He could walk into a building, just to use the restroom for a moment and then walk out, and draw of map of everything he'd seen. He could change his voice, his manners, his looks, and become so many other people. He could slip in almost anywhere, and no one could tell that he didn't belong.

His skills took him to Denver, where he was hired by a team that needed a good recon man. They needed to get into an office building, and pull someone out. He posed as a courier, sweet talking the lobby receptionist into letting him in, allowing him to see the security codes she used. He found the quickest, quietest route the team could take to the target. Later in the evening he returned, dressed as a suit, and fast talked the security guard into letting him in. Then using the codes, he let the rest of the team in. They then completly ignored the route he had planned. That lead to a small fight with secruity, that lead to a big fight with security. There was no use in being anybody, so Jack became nobody, unnoticed by everybody else. When the fight was over, he became Jack again, and slowly raised his hands, and said, "Excuse me. I surrender."

He was detained for several weeks and throroughly debriefed. Whoever was in charge though, decided that his skills might be useful because he was given the 'choice' of taking new employment. Jack of course accepted, but after getting back out into the open air of Denver he discovered that none of his former colleagues would have anything to do with them. Apprently someone was taking offense at the fact he had managed to be the sole survivor of that last run.

Jack is one of the most recent additions to the team, and when people see him as his 'normal' self, he is a very unremarkable human male, thin, a little bony, with olive skin and a close shaved head. He didn't join the team under the best of circumstances, starting out on the wrong side of a firefight when a running team attempted a datasteal from one of Ghostwalker's front corporations. A couple weeks later when the team was next called together by the 'Big Boss,' (an amerindian named Cesco Mandello; given that when the team is called in for business, he has sometimes been seen talking with Nicolas Whitebird, Ghostwalker's speaker, everyone has a good idea about the ultimate source of their orders) there was a familar face at the meeting (espcially if you looked at him over the targeting cursor of a smartlink). He introduced himself as Jack, and BB explained how he was now part of the team. Jack had a rather interesting set of talants. During one run, Gremish's particular talents were needed during an infiltration, but the opposition had him under survelliance. Jack became Gremish, right down to the voice, and the straight laced military mannerisms, using only a couple hours and a few prosthetics. His impersonation was so good that the tails never even knew a switch had been made, allowing the run to be pulled off sucessfully. A few of the team members have started betting pools as to what he'll look like next. So far you've seen him as an old amerindian, an ork street tough, a black, white collar salaryman, an elven businesswoman, even a dwarf (although that disguise only lasted until he stood up and unhunched his body).

He is an odd person to be around. His personality seems to change depending on who he's with. Around Gremish he also becomes stern, and a little uptight. If he was around Gypsy, then he would be anything but. It's not that he slots a new chip or anything, but you can almost see his mental gears shifting. It's not that he's mimicing people, but that his mental state changes to accomodate them.

His talents also make him an excellent choice for recon work. Not only can he record everything he sees and hears with cyberwear (and he has storage memory in both his head and his car for backing up records) but his meat memory is also nearly flawless (ask him about Chicago sometime. He _wishes_ he could forget that stuff).

No one can really say that they've spent much time with the actual Jack. When he's not actively being somebody else, he tends to be very quiet, observant. Almost like a mouse, calmly going about its daily routines, but always keeping it's ears cocked for the first sign of danger, watching the whole world, because the whole world is bigger than it is.

With the mana-centric nature of the team, Jack sometimes finds himself in the role of combat support, guarding the mages' meat bodies. This isn't always an ideal situation, since if he didn't come prepared, he might have trouble remembering which is the business end of his Predator. Still, the sheer versatility (with proper preparation) he can bring to any operation has made the rest of the team greatly appreciate the fact that none of them geeked him during that first encounter.

Lindt (and Sandoval): I still say there is no need for an Active Performance skill. As per canon in SotA'64, these kind of skills are listed as Knowledge, which would save Lindt Active Skill points and Sandoval some nuyen on chips. :)

Oh, and I updated Gypsy again, incorporating some of your suggestions Sphynx, and expanding on others. :D

[Sandoval Smith]

I think having it as an Active Skill makes sense in Jack's case, since it's the skill he'll be relying on when he's trying to impersonate spedific mannerisms and traits. I'm not sure what Lindt took it for, so I can't speak for him.

Let's start tossing out more backstory. I want to hear what everyone else has been doing in Denver.

[Lindt]

Im going with Smith there, while its not a huge part of the charcter, its something that i feel justified in spending active points on.
Im gonna re-run the numbers one last time, I have been tweaking a bit here and a bit there so much i wanna make sure it still works. Im gonn put the 'final' (read as latest version) here.

Background:
The only thing harder then getting rid of a SIN, is getting one in the first place. Especially if your parents never had one. And you where born in the back of a VW van. On the side of I-191. Somewhere between Tucson and Phoenix. Not that it mattered to the caravan of freelance vagabonds that Tevos calls his extended family. It was a birth, and a good reason to party. Youth was spent enjoying life on the road, ducking patrols in Pueblo CC, learning some trade, learning his culture, and talking to his imaginary friends. Which one day decided to stop being imaginary. Being the first awakened child in a camp was something that had both its up and its down sides. To his annoyance, people where always asking him to cast a spell, which he never figured out. His real solace was suddenly being able to actually talk to the wind, the earth, and the water. The _______ eventually decided that while little Tev was an asset, after a falling out with a wind sprit, he was a liability as well. A questionable arrangement was made with a Sioux settlement that left Tev in their care to learn better control of the sprits around him. This was not the only thing he learned, learning the basics of hunting, first aid, basic survival, and some of the more grey concepts involving territorial borders. Apparently, he was a star pupil, as it was only seven short years before he took his first vision quest, spending 3 days alone with just the Fox to guide him. He took his leave of the tribe shortly after, due to political problems. After, he wandered for a few years, picking up some skill in slight of hand, and as he would later find out, becoming a half decent thief in his own right. After lifting a briefcase that 'fell off the back of a truck' and finding it containing cash, a gun, and a letter addressed to "the thief" containing contact information for an Elf needing someone with light fingers, Tev was introduce to Twitch. One of the skills Tev took to was hand-cracking safes. According to him, it was the same type of calm that you need to control the sprits, but a little more manual. One particularly un-successful job near a reactor forced Tev to take to flight and to learn how to shoot back with something a little less obvious then the scatter guns he was used to, especially when the sprits decided that they didn’t want to show. A few inquiries and he was put in touch with someone who was rumored to have taught a troll known as Wedge (god rest his soul) how to fire an assault rifle. Tev tried out different styles, finally finding a lighter weight Russian automatic to his liking. A further problem with an employer forced Tev to relocate once again, and finding the former state of Colorado to his liking, (added to the easy smuggler access) ended up in Denver.

Sketch:
Tev is generally a nice guy, until you cross him, at which point the gloves come off and it gets ended usually right there, however getting Tev to that point takes some serious effort. Some people have called him a little loose in the head; he calls it talking to the sprits (which he does quite often, with mixed reactions from the sprits themselves). Dogs though, let’s leave it at a bad experience. While his immediate family doesn’t know that he’s has effectively become a successful career criminal, he keeps in touch either directly, or via a network of annoying psudo-relatives.

And a hearty "i hate you" to Fortune for forcing my hand because I really figured out it wasent that importent... but I really dont hate you =p

[Fortune]

[Backgammon]

(ok, not really the best story I've ever written, but it's a little showcase of Dogma's abilities and how he usually goes about business)

Dogma slapped a clip into his Browning, and hid it under his ivory white long coat. He adjusted his black shades, a sharp contrast to his otherwise snow-white suit. He wasn't sure at all about this meet. Not sure at all. Still, his job was meeting people who he thought might know something useful. It wasn't always cakewalk.

But this rundown appartment complex was just down right unpleasant. He'd gathered the rep on this beetle pusher he was meeting. Unclean, dirty slob of a man who dug in his own stock. The worst kind.

Dogma let out a long sigh and stepped in front of the door, number 31, and knocked.

>>Door opening. Remain on standby<< went his mental message through his transducer and head phone to his backup waiting in the car outside the building. At least he had trusty team mates to rely on. If drek hit the fan, he could count on them.

A greassy, shifty eyed sweaty bald head peered at him through the crack made by the partially opened door. Dogma rolled his eyes behind his shades. He mentally lowered the strength of his olfactory boosting cyberware. What a stench.

"Dogma" the elf calmy introduced himself.

The pusher grunted and opened the door to the most unkept appartment Dogma had seen in a long time.

The pusher made his way over trash lying on the floor to a rotting sofa and sat down, and resumed eating some chinese food, looking at the elf. Dogma assumed the empty seat in front of the sofa was for him.

The elf took a few, slow steps towards his designated seat, but couldn't bring himself to sit down on the bug-infested looking thing.

"You want sum?" asked the pusher, indicating the boxes of chinese food he was eating out of.

"What do you know about Chavez?" asked Dogma, skipping the small talk phase with this unsavory character.

The pusher swallowed hard his over-sized mouthful and smiled. "Depends how much ya got... but I gots dirt on him, alright..." he finished his sentence in an ugly guttural chuckle.

"Alright Rammie, before you get to the heart of the matter, how do you even know Chavez?" asked Dogam, nonchalantly flashing the pusher a credstick with a 3000 :nuyen: balance.

The pusher's facial expression took on the distorted happyness of greed satisfied when he saw the credstick. He practically licked his lips. "Well, I wuz sell...."

<<Cops on the way to your position. Rammie wanted for cop killing. Get out. -X>> came a message a mail message in his image link. X, Dogma's cop informant, was always on the spot with info. Damn, better move fast.

Dogma silently and very patiently waited another precious 20 seconds of the pusher's blabbering before it became obvious he had nothing useful on Chavez.

<<We're leaving, boys. Cops coming for Rammie. He's got nothing, let him rot>> sent Dogma to his team in the car.

"That's enough Rammie, you've got nothing. You've wasted my time." Dogma made his way back to the door of the appartment.

"HEY, what about my money!" came Rammie's cry of outrage.

Damn junkie, thought Dogma. He isn't going to make this easy. Indeed, a quick glance behind him showed Dogma that the pusher was reaching for a gun hidden under a pile of dirty clothes. The elf rapidly took out his gun and fired two rounds in the pusher's general direction, making sure not to hit him. It had the intended effect and sent the pusher ducking for cover, rather than picking up the gun. It was just enough to buy Dogma enough time to run down the stairs to his get away car, just as he saw police sirens closing in on the pusher's position.

A furious and out of breath Rammie ran outside the appartment building after the elf, gun in hand, just in time to see Dogma's car pull away from the curb. At the same moment, the police vehicules screeched to a halt surrounding the pusher. Panicked, Rammie fired shots at the police offciers and tried to run for it, but was quickly gunned down by the cops. Good ridance, though Dogma, checking out this last scene in the rearview mirror of the americar.

His team mate sitting next to him gave him a look, but Dogma just shrugged and removed a loose linen from his coat. "Waste of time" he said, and everyone in the car went back to their own thoughts.

[Sphynx]

BackGammon - Dogma

[ Spoiler ]

Looks good, I have nothing to suggest for you, but feel free to consider changes if you like.

Jack - Sandoval

[ Spoiler ]

I kinda have the same problem with Stealth that I had with Athletics. I just have trouble seeing it as a 'soft'. Same reasons...

Other than that, I'm ok with the character as-is.

Tevos - Lindt

[ Spoiler ]

Character looks ok to me.

Rebo - HMHVV Hunter

[ Spoiler ]

My only real problem is his lack of physical skills for a soldier (Athletics and Stealth). Currently he's got the Harry Potter version of stealth ("The Naga may have been blinded by your Phoenix, but he can still here you!", so Harry runs into a watery tunnel, splashing in the center of every water puddle within it). I'm ok with you not taking those skills, but I think you should at least be aware of some of the difficulties you'll incur without them.

[Fortune]

Sphynx

[ Spoiler ]

I feel left out! :(

Any comments on the new and improved character?

[Sandoval Smith]

I made stealth an 'actual' skill, and put ettiquette on a level 4 chip (he has enough other relevant social skills that etiquette is probably the least vital). I also put in a little blurb about his survelliance skills. For the final tweak, I dropped Good Reputation and Perceptive, replacing them with Astral Chameleon and Blandness, since those fit in with the theme of he's a hard person to analyze an track, especially when in disguise. To that end, I also bought a secure jacket, and secure ultra vest, so that's he got some concealable armor options to include with outfit changes (hm, well I didn't think anyone was following us, but in the past hour I've seen three people wearing that same long coat).

I also finally remembered to put the Me Box on his equipment list (it's a hollow cyberdeck case for keeping all his chips neat and organized, I paid 500 :nuyen: for it).

*edit* Oops, I just noticed the PM you sent me on the 26. I hope I've got that worked out to a level you find acceptable now.

[Sandoval Smith]

Just to get things going, let's do a little background RPing. No dice rolls in here, just have fun with stretching your characters' legs and running with the rest of the team.

The timeframe is seven weeks before the start of the campaign. Jack has been part of the team for three weeks, and this is the second operation he has been on with the rest of you.

Everyone was going about their normal lives (whatever it is everyone does when they're not busy saving the Front Range Free Zone) when they got one of those calls with the anonymous voice on the other end saying, 'the Big Boss wants to see you,' in a 'I don't care what you're doing now, it's not as important as this,' tone. Everyone knew something was up, because Nicholas Whitebird not only had a couple extra words with Cesco before the briefing, but unobtrusivly watched the whole thing as well.

Gabriel Tiahualpa was a name and face everyone was familar with. He was an Aztech infiltrator, a good one. Not quite good enough though. He had yet to pick up on the fact that he'd been picked up, and analyzing his communications, and comings and goings had provided a wealth of information on Aztech operations in Denver (kudos for the success of that operation, Dogma). As of late, he'd also been very busy. He was taking even greater security precautions than before, and all that was known was that he'd be meeting with someone important in two days time. Someone _Very_ important. We were to keep him under survelliance until he made the meeting, ID who he was meeting with, and then tail them (other assets would keep an eye on Gabriel), and then detain them, once it was certain we could do so without tipping our hand on Gabriel.

Taking on the guise of an overworked Texas salariman, he checked into the Burnsley Hotel in the CAS sector, and then spent two days doing nothing suspicious (Jack delivered room service two him on two separate occasions, in two different guises, and no matter how carefully the audio and video records he brought back were examined, they showed no evidence of anything other than Gabriel's cover story). On the morning of day three, Gabriel took his pocket secretary a couple of folders, and started working in a sunny spot in the spacious plaza in front of the hotel. A short while later, he was joined by an apparent co-worker, an elf of mezoamerican descent. They started smoking, which made analyzing their lip movement diffilcult. Jack made three passes, but they were also using a white noise generator. On the third pass, in the guise of an amerindian businessman, he took a seat in the plaza well out of normal hearing range to enjoy an early lunch. Even with cyber enhancements, the noise generator made it diffilcult for him to hear anything they said. It was almost a certainty that they'd also have astral security.

[Gremish]

Ok total redo on Gremish char sheet. Here goes i went with a diff Spell theme and took alot more cash, got 2 sustaining foci's and went for a "theme" Spell list since thats what you wanted.
