Who said your facing just one dragon?

*sobs*

Wait -- we're facing a dragon?

Works for me!

Ah, damn, and this entire time I was arming to take on a bunch of gangers.

Curse my brain... Hiro's just about done, I just need a good solid sit down half hour or so for him, but I've got an exam in the morn, and did two hours of kung-fu today, so my brain is hurt.... I'll be finished tommorrow eve, just about deadline time.

Today is the day I would like all characters in.

So far only Whizbang has given me a final character.


Archmage - Whizbang

You're not the boss of me! You can't tell me what to do! <quitely panicking in the background as he struggles to put all his notes together in a somewhat sensible arrangement>

*curses her need for sleep and trudges on*

It won't be pretty, Shadow, but you'll have my sheet within the hour.

I just have a couple more tweaks to do, and then he's all yours.

You know you ugys dont have to have them into me this second. 10am or 10pm is fine as well.

It's 9:31 AM where I am.

Cool, because I am going to have to catch a couple of hours sleep. It's 5:51 AM here!

I'll have my sheet to you in a few hours.

Didn't think Immortal Elves needed sleep.

We don't need much ... just a few hours. I, for instance, have slept 3 1/2 hours in the past 4 days, and it hasn't affected me in the slightest.

Funny... thats how much I got last night and I'm a freakin' zombie today. I keep trying to get the finishing touches on my character and then end up zoning out on the math and getting confused.

I hope you don't mind, Shadow, but I'm editting and reeditting my history. It is, well, too long.

Whew. Okay, other than needing to take a break from all those numbers and coming back to check a few things out, Belfast is finished. Yay!

tanka: Just so you know, I had an extra million leftover that I had nothing to do with (didn't even have anything to really waste the karma on if you can believe it), so I went ahead and bought a tweaked-out yacht. She's got rigger adaptation, a remote-control encryption module 10, robotic pilot 3, and a lot of other stuff. Not much in the way of armor and no weaponry (as it's Bel's house)... but if we wind up doing any ocean travel or something, it's set up so you can use it. Just thought I'd letcha know. [And if I relax enough within the next hour or so, I may just build one from scratch and make it a little more runnerish. ]

Yeah well ... the words were blurring a bit earlier, but I'm fine now.

Sending Raiko now.

And it's only 1:50am here.

Hank, the dual wielding Heavy Weapons Expert is done (except History, but that is coming)(and yeah, you read that right, dual wielding, two HMGs or Autocannons at the same time).

Doc: Fair enough. Always good to have a quick landing spot.

Shadow: Wagner will be in tomorrow late afternoon/early evening. I just got home from work and have to work again in the morning, followed by some practice for a musical I'm in. Sorry for any delays I cause.

No problem, will see you then.

Danny's sent!

I reserve the right to tweak him right up until the game actually begins though!

I'm jumping on that right myself. And in no way have I already found a few things I left out. No sir. Not a one. Nope. <hides his six pages of notes>

I find that's always the case. Right after submission, some glaringly obvious omission jumps out and kicks me in the goolies.

Shadow, it may be as late as tomorrow. Having problems with the background. I will, however, try to get him in tonight.

I am unconcerned with backgrounds, I am concerned with having the character in advanced of the game starting so I can at least look at him. So please, send me the stats. You can send the BG later.

I'm sending what I have... the last 4mil is proving a pain in the arse to spend Otherwise Hinotama is complete.

Give it to me ... I know I can find a use for it!

I almost cheated myself out of half of my money, forgetting to turn off the street index feature on NSRCG.

That's what you get for crippling yourself with crutches. NSRCG -- the geas of Shadowrun players. That should be their motto or something.

It does come in handy some times, but you can't take it for granted, You have to be aware that it has bugs, some of them quite insidious.

Be that as it may ...

I will be re-sending Danny in the near future. I'm not going for that Antipathy Flaw though ... it's a bit overkill.

Let me reiterate something I said earlier.

Please send me characters via email. No other way. No links, or PM's, or carrier pigeons.

kelvaris (at) shadowgames (dot) us

Hmm. Seems I need to catch that bird and type up the character. I wonder how far a pidgeon can travel in a day.

Shadow, who's characters have you recieved so far?

Character submitted

Doc
Fortune
Morg
Sabo
Whizbang

Hurry up and get them in so we can start! The torture of resisting further tweaking is almost more than I can bear!

I've already thought of one change I could make ...

Thought? Pfft. I *had* a few changes and already implemented them, sucka (including a superspy-type room that transforms into a weapons arsenal with every small arm in the book -- just because I could). So yes, please do send them in so we can start... I really need to focus on this other project of mine.

If I get everyone in I will start the thread tomorow night.

No, you don't understand. I just re-submitted Danny with quite a few changes, and then immediately afterwards another idea came to me ... as is always the case.

I could have traded more in for Karma, but seriously... it would have been too much. Even in a game where that definition doesn't exist. (Sometimes my ability to min/max makes me cry, and this is one of those times.) So, instead, I bought a bad-ass yacht and a weapons cache from Hell. <shrugs>

I'm realizing I could drop 5 of the 8 level-3 contacts and buy enough ammunition that I would need a bigger car. The problem already is the idea I have enough guns and explosives to at least get past the outer defenses of the Renraku Archology after Deus was defeated. And you're not exactly going to have an easy time penetrating my armor, either.

Don't get me wrong, Doc. I could have gone much farther in the min/max department myself, but I figured Shadow would hurt me!

Wagner stats are done. Hopefully there are no glaring mistakes.

E-mail is on its way momentarily. Bio should be done tomorrow or Monday.

I must be blind, missed the no links or PM bit, and PMed a link... fool I be. I'm whittling away that 4mil as I type... might buy more karma... but do dikoted foci just seem like way too much?

I suppose on the type of focus you were planning on dikoting .. no point in covering your pen (force one reusable 'catalog' focus) with diamond film, eh? Well, not unless you were going to stab them with it....

Buy karma.

[Edit: As a note, I've just finished running one of the most exhausting tabletop sessions in my carreer as a GM and I fully expect that none of this will make sense in the morning. My coffee high wore off sixteen hours ago but somehow I'm still upright. ]
