So last night I started working on a render of the entire team. I created a female dwarf figure.
@Crizh - Just tell me what nationality you want for her (if not already correct) and what things you envision different about her.
@Aaron - Same goes for you. Tell me about your character description and I'll add him to the render.

@Jeremiah - How about an IC thread with a scene setting post to let us start posting some character flavor posts while we wrap up and bring on the remaining team members? Its Aaron (Ukhetshe; Human Male), Redjack (An Shui; Ork Chinese-American Ork Street Shaman), Crizh (Bunny; Female Dwarven Street Sam) & WearzManySkinz (Piet van de Kaap, Afrikaans Recon/Spy/Forward Observer) so far, right?
I saw Aaron, Ophis and Fortune talking about characters. Any of them in?

Aaron's in, Fortune's not in, and Ophis is in.
And we got one more guy coming in.
ADDENDUM: Yeah, I'll get the IC and OOC posts ready today.
Hacker will be ready ASAP.
Name will be Jack. Concept combat accountant (Hacker with some sam ability). Gambling fan (hence the name). Human (I think).

Post or PM a description when you get him done and I'll add him to the team render over the next few weeks as time allows.
Basic work out done. I'll do gear later today and finesse the Qualities a bit.

Cool, I've not done a proper description or 20 Q's yet. Working on it.
Ethnic background is surely difficult ground. I was thinking Anglo but I've changed my mind but don't really know how to state my preference without stumbling into being offensive and I imagine that can be a big deal in Cape Town.
I've been watching Charlie Jade recently so I was thinking something like Patricia McKenzie, who plays Reena. She's real pretty but has about the same level of social grace as Bunny...
As a side note, she does have two very obvious cyberarms. I'm not sure you'd get to see that much of her breasts very often either.....

Cape Town culture today strongly suggests that there is nothing black and white about Cape Town's racial mix, which is populated by skin shades of every colour. The Mother City is unlike anywhere else in South Africa, with the majority of its population calling themselves Cape Coloureds (referring without any offence, to their mixed race heritage). Originating from a mix of slaves from Africa and South East Asia, Dutch settlers and Khoikhoi herdsmen, the Cape Coloureds first language is Afrikaans - an Africanised old Dutch which is still spoken today by many people in Cape Town.
Another interesting Cape Town culture fact is that black Africans of the Xhosa tribe makes up more than a million of the Western Cape's 4.5 million population, with English and Afrikaners in the white minority.
Cape Malay people are also a small minority, but their strong culture and distinctive cuisine has influenced Cape Town for hundreds of years. Immigrants and refugees from other African countries like Angola and Congo, add a touch of the exotic to the many languages that can be heard in Cape Town.

Ok J, has given me the go ahead to submit my character. I should have him in today. He's a Wuxing from Hong Kong wih ties (bad ones) to the Red Dragon triad. His street name is Whisper.
Ok Whisper submitted via PM.
@Crizh: Ok, I gave her a conservative top and changed her hairstyle (found a picture of Patricia McKenzie. Hair is longer in the pic, but this looked pretty reasonable). I have a few other hair styles if there is something special you are looking for. I also changed her arms to silver (I don't have any cyber arm models and am not yet good enough to make my own). Let me know what you think. I also have quite a few weapons if you want her holding something.
@Wearz: There's a first pass at Ruff.
@Aaron: Ukhetshe will be up next.

Hey Red if you want to do Whisper, I used Jet Li from Fearless as his template.
