Well, who would you all like to see in a novel after the 5 year gap in action that proceeds SR4?

Jack Skater and his crew; Elvis, Duran, Trey, Archangel, er...the Dwarf...
His daughter would be what? 10 or so.. Kyle Teller - from Burning Bright. And not neccessairly his own novel - but it'd be cool for Sam Verner to Make an appearance - just to see what's become of him in the 20 year's since SR started Thouse would be cool.. |

Hell yes! ( Didn't archangel leave?) although I think it's pretty much inevitable that we'll get Talon instead. Not that I don't like Talon, but he's not my favorite. Kyle and his now free spirit! :D |

Yeah, Archangel left - she made an appearance in Mel's next book...That one with Argent.
But she could come back. |

By 2070 that guy would have to be at least in his 60ies - but cool nevertheless! |

Eldritch pretty much summed it up for me. I'd also like to see what happened to Sally Tsung.

Is true :) I'd definetly like to see what became of the 'Orginal' gang - Sam, Dodger, Sally, Ghost, Kam. Like I said, Maybe not an entire book on them - but an appearance would be great. |

With his connections, he'd be a prime candidate for Leonization though. ;) |

I would definitely like to hear about Harlequin and also about Richard Villiers & Miles Lanier.
Indeed it would be nice to see what Harlequin gets interested in now. And I'm quite interested in knowing how Villiers and Lanier plan to make Novatech surviving the technogical change concerning the Matrix. Anyway, from what I've read on Villier's plans and especially that quote: "Scuttlebut says that Villiers and the upper ranks have a big surprise planned" >CorpWatcher, p.160 SOTA64, I have the definite feeling that Novatech might still be at the bleeding edge of technology in 2070. On the other hand, I'd also like to hear about some old characters like Sam Verner and Dodger or the good old Fastjack (should be getting old now ;)), Dirk Montgomery and also Kyle Teller and his old ally, Seeks-The-Moon. Last, I would *love* to see Dunkelzhan coming back from the metaplanes and take back a seat on world affairs once again! :D |

Yeah. Coming back from the dead just isn't done enough in popular fiction, and he isn't super-lamely halfway there already. Dunkie's gotta come back.

Yeah, even nowadays, to be in your 60ies doesn't make you old. Now look how Mr Barnal from Yamatetsu remains at the top of his condition or how Damien knight and the others remain young via Leonization... Getting old is not a problem anymore. So I guess that with the right amount of cash a human (a homosapien sapien) could live a couple of hundred years without problems, don't you think? :D |

Well, he is technically dead but also a free spirit so I don't see why he couldn't materialize and run business like Buttercup does with Yamatetsu... ;) [EDIT] Oh and let's get rid of his cyber-zombie host! It's The Big D. we are talking about here so I guess he should have no trouble finding a solution to part ways. This post has been edited by Moonlight Song: Jun 16 2005, 08:49 AM |

Well... I don't really want him to come back, because I'm getting tired of all these damn 'superheroes' dying and coming back. Kind of defeats the nobleness of the sacrifice if they just come back.
But realisitcally (if you can say that when referring to a spirit of a presidiential dragon that blew it's self up and now lives on in the body of a mage that lost it's magic, then got turned into a mostly machine cyberzombie, then got his awareness back from a mystical artifact tha shouldn't exst, then went soft, and eventually regresses back to a child hood state and wanders the metaplanes protectiing all of metahumanity form the 'enemy) , he can only wander back and forth along the same freakin' chasm bringnig down mana spikes for so long before he gets bored. |

I'm gonna do the unheard of, and quote Captain America, talking about people refusing to stay dead. Well, Captain America from "Earth X," anyway. "Death should mean something." Me? Smiling Bandit, KAM, Banshee (I like Banshee, what can I say?), what's-his-name - the Ork from Yamatetsu? Oh, and Picador. I like the wierd ones, if you can't tell. |

Well Dunkelzhan is more a natural force than your usual run-of-the-mill player. In that sense, being in the metaplanes, he didn't have disappeared just been away from current world affairs like Ghostwalker was during his long astral quest. That's also the reason why I do want to see the Big D, back: because of his ability to structure and move forward the whole world. Oh yes, Man-Of-Many-Names is cool, a little bit of a "superhero" with his Man-of-the-woods though. :P :D ;) [EDIT]
I really liked the Smiling Bandit; quite an interesting character, IMO. :)

I'd be mainly interested in his condition - what are the long-term effects of living with cyberware for ~30 years? |
