Okay, I know you want this stuff emailed or PM'd to you, but I wanted to post it here because I've been working on it on multiple PCs for the past week, lol, and I just want it posted somewhere so I don't have to keep saving it and emailing it to myself. The character questionairre is the first spoiler, and the character sheet is the second. The character sheet isn't finished yet; I still have like 70 Karma to spend and an additional 50 post-gen Karma to spend as well. Also, the contacts need fleshed out, and my specific knowledge skills are unfinished (because I may yet spend some of my karma on logic or something, which would increase the total).

Tasunke Luta (Red Horse)
Nickname(s) and / or Street Name(s)?
Dances-With-Dakka
Gender?
All man, baby.
Ethnicity?
See these tusks? Take a wild guess, ujnort.
Nationality?
Sioux
Sexual orientation?
Straight. Thought I might'a been otherwise there for a bit; turns out, I was just listening to shitty music.
Physical size and body type?
It's not the size of the ork that matters, omae, it's the caliber of the weapon he's carrying.
What do you look like?
Why, you single?
What do you dress like?
Frag do you care? Horizon fundin' this suvey or somethin'?
What is your best physical feature?
Vanity's for drek-heads.
What is your least favorite physical feature?
I ain't changin' nothin', chummer; this is how they made me. So what's it matter?
Where were you born (City, State, Hospital)?
Crow and Northern Cheyenne Hospital, Sioux Nation.
What is your date of birth?
February 18, 2052
Do you have a SIN? Do you use it?
So you can flood my ass with pr0n spam? No, thanks.
Where do you live now and why do you live there?
Currently? Seattle, omae. That's where the scene is.
Likes and dislikes
Metahumans?
Look, if a dude's got the chops, that's all I care about. Doesn't matter how long or short his ears are.
Changelings?
Same deal.
Technomancers?
See above.
the Awakened and / or Magic in general?
Got a lotta respect for 'em; the NAN was founded on that drek. We owe our freedom to it.
Science?
Just don't test on animals, so ka?
Abortion?
I think what a woman does with her body is her own damn business. You gotta problem with that?
Technology generally?
Yeah, it's great. Whatever.
The Matrix?
Instantaneous and unlimited access to anything you'd ever want to see or experience or understand? Yeah, can't live without it.
Gays / Lesbians / Bisexuals / the Transgendered?
Lotta respect. Shit, most trannies know more about what it means to live rock n' roll than anyone else in the sprawl.
Infidelity?
Drek happens.
Sex (casual or otherwise)?
Kinda overrated, honestly, but you won't hear me complaining.
Lying?
It's all part of the game, chummer.
Cheating?
See "Lying".
Stealing?
See "Cheating".
Killing?
Man, I know sometimes you gotta break a few eggs and all that drek, but I wouldn't wanna kill somebody 'less I absolutely had to.
Personal Responsibility?
It's a drag, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
The Law, generally?
People gotta have rules; sucks, but that's how it goes. So long as I can speak my mind and carry a gun, I get along just fine with the 'Star.
Capital punishment?
Meh. Between fraggin' 'em, and lettin' 'em live out the terms of their natural lives on my tax dollars? I say just frag 'em.
The relationship between Church and State?
You want your pups raised in a God-friendly institution? Send 'em to a fraggin' private school, drek-head; religion has no place in public education.
Guns?
Who doesn't like guns?
Organized religion?
Look, I don't give a shit what you believe. I don't care if you believe there's no God, or if you believe that you're God. I don't care if you believe you're descended from space aliens, or if you ritualistically shave your nuts because you believe it's holy. I just don't care. Just don't come rockin' up to my door on Sunday morning and expect me to chat with you about it.
Personal faith?
A wise man once said, "Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid"; those are the words I live by. But if faith's your thing, right on. I can respect that, too.
The Mega-Corporations?
Frag 'em. Yo, is Horizon readin' this? 'Cause if so, shove that record contract up your drek-holes, so ka?
What is your favorite:
Color?
Red.
Type of food?
Pizza and noodles. Together.
Type of drink?
Ever had a novacoke? That drek's like a jager-bomb times a thousand. Mmmm.
Desert? (Yes, this is separate from food.)
Mint and chocolate frozen soy-cream.
Material to wear?
Whatever.
Type of music?
Never, ever ask musicians what kinds of music we like, chummer; it's too frustrating tryin' to dumb it down for gaijins like you.
Type of Trideo / Sim?
If it's artsy and violent, I'm in.
Art form?
All art is equivalent, omae; a painting is no more inherently complex or valuable than a song or a statue. A skilled artist makes use of all mediums, and true art appeals to every sense. And then some.
Sexual position (and why)?
Girl on top; let them do all the work. Am I right?
Mode of transportation?
I actually really enjoy just walking.
Decorating style? (i.e.: spartan, Scandanavian, Japanese, Colonial, etc.)
I couldn't care less.
Do you:
Drink alcohol?
Drink, drink, drink, 'till I'm on the floor; what the fuck am I doin' this for?
Use tobacco?
I have, but it's not my thing.
Indulge in recreational drugs (including BTLs)?
Nah.
Have any addictions?
Probably, yeah. I get headaches when I haven't had a novacoke in a while; that can't be good.
Engage in recreational sex?
Only every chance I get.
Have any kinks or sexual fetishes?
You mean do I like to be pissed on or choked? Nah, frag that noise.
Have any phobias?
I'm not big on devil rats an' ghouls and shit, but I wouldn't call it a "phobia."
Collect anything?
Uh, yeah. I try to get posters at all the shows I go to; helps me remember the atmosphere, which helps the creative process. Ujnorts like you probably wouldn't understand.
Have a pet peeve?
Fraggin' tons: people who fish for compliments and constantly crave attention; people who want to talk at you rather than with you; uhh, you know what? I could seriously spend all day on this question. Probably not worth the energy.
Enjoy reading?
Absolutely.
What other things do you like and dislike?
Well, I'm starting to really hate this survey. Does that count?
What things do you hate (and why)?
How could I hate a "thing", which is, by definition, without both "life and consciousness"?
What people do you hate (and why)?
Hate is a pretty strong word; I don't think I really "hate" anybody, omae.
What ideas do you hate (and why)?
Racism, intolerance? Do I really have to explain why?
What things do you love (and why)?
Ain't no fraggin' way I'm listin' out things I love on a Matrix survey; last thing I need is a thousand more ads to sift through every morning when I check my com-mail.
What people do you love (and why)?
I love my parents and my people. We're not perfect, but we're family.
What ideas do you love (and why)?
I love love; it's all you need.
Which Mega-corporation do you like / respect most and why?
I ain't no drek-head sell-out, omae. They can all kiss my ass.
Which Mega-corporation do you dislike / fear most and why?
Horizon's pretty useless. They recruit some really awful talent, and it's all you ever fraggin' hear.
Family & Friends
Who are / were your parents?
Hey, you stay the frag away from my parents, so ka? 'Less you want this here dakka shoved so far up your drek-hole, everytime you want to take a dump, it'll have to tip-toe past my trigger-finger.
What was your family life like growing up?
Can't complain. I could at the time, but I was young and stupid. I know now I had it lots better than most folks.
What is your current relationship with your family (and why)?
They're mostly still out East. I try to keep in contact as best I can, but I don't want 'em involved in my shit. Too dangerous.
Any siblings?
Yeah, heaps.
A spouse(s)?
Had a couple come close, yeah, but they always came in second to the music; no girl wants that, chummer.
Any offspring?
Uh, not that I know of. Got any wood I can knock on?
Have you had any serious relationships?
Sure have.
Who is / was your best friend?
Used to jam with this guy, Ellis, but I haven't seen him in a while. Think he's doin' runs down in PCC these days.
Where do each of the above live now?
Forget it.
Any special loyalties to:
A company or companies?
Frag that noise.
Family?
Absolutely.
A criminal organization (including a gang)?
The UCAS classifies the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) as a terrorist organization, so, yeah. I guess I do.
A religious order or orders?
Only church I know is the scene; only God I know is music.
A person or persons?
Not particularly.
A nation or nations?
I'm proud of the NAN, but I ain't stickin' my neck out for 'em, if that's what you're askin'.
An idea or ideal?
I'm just gonna say "yes", and leave it at that. If I went into detail, we'd be here all fraggin' day.
Background
Do you have any physical quirks?
I bite the insides of my lips a lot, and I pretty much constantly shake my legs when I'm sitting down. I don't like standing still; it's uncomfortable. Gotta keep moving. No idea why.
Do you have any personal quirks?
Sometimes I feel like I need to dominate conversations, you know? But I try not to.
How would you describe your own personality?
Omae, don't make me talk about that drek.
What do you think is your best quality?
I'm pretty driven, I think. Got a ton of causes I get behind, and I take 'em all pretty seriously.
What do you think is your worst quality?
Same as my best quality, really; I take shit too seriously, and the people around me suffer.
Where or how were you educated?
Hope this doesn't hurt my street cred, but yeah, I went to college. Majored in sound engineering.
Where did you learn your active skills?
The ALF taught me a hell of a lot, and that's all I'm sayin'.
Where have you acquired your knowledge?
A lot of it's from years of dedicated practice, the rest's from college.
What special qualities do you possess?
Other than these brutal tusks? I dunno, chummer. You tell me.
Where did you get all your resources?
My skills pay the bills, omae, that's all I'm sayin'; I'll let you figure out the rest.
Do you have any enemies?
Uh, not that I know of?
Do you have anything to do with magic?
Music is my magic. But other than that, I'm as mundane as any other sprawler.
Why did you leave your old life?
Honestly, I just felt driven toward the djoto. It's a way of life, chummer, and I wasn't feelin' it at all back in the NAN.
What event or events specifically led you to the shadows?
Came in contact with the ALF through the Seattle underground music scene; didn't take long before I was doin' 'runs for 'em.
Have you ever done anything else for a living?
I've been a musician for half my life; played a lotta gigs; enough to live comfortably, anyway.
Why do you choose to continue to "run the shadows"?
All part 'a the Djoto, chummer. I don't expect you to understand.
Why not just get a "real" life?
This is the real life, drek-head; whole lot more real than slummin' it up in the sprawl, that's for sure.
How do you view your role as a Shadowrunner?
The Sixth World is full 'a problems, omae; I like to think I'm part of the solution.
Are you a full-time runner? Or do you lead a Batman-like double existence?
I still have gigs on the side, if that's what you're askin'.
Who are your contacts and how did you meet them?
No fraggin' way I'm tellin' you anything like that, chummer. So forget it.
What is the most important thing you have ever done?
Your mother.
How old were you when you lost your virginity, to whom and how?
I was something like 14 when I lost my v-card. And look, it only lasted like 35 seconds, omae, so there's not much to remember, hah.
Personal Beliefs
What are your personal (non-religious) beliefs?
I believe in freedom, and justice for all; by any means necessary.
Do you have a Moral code?
Of course.
How mercenary are you (Will you kill innocents, etc.)?
Nah, frag that noise. I'm not a killer.
Are their certain things you can't or won't do (and why)?
I'm not gonna off nobody, omae, and I've already told you why.
Which religion (if any) do you follow?
N/A.
Personal Motivations
What are your goals and which is most important to you?
I think that artists have an obligation to utilize their skills and influence in a way that affects some positive change. So that's my goal.
Which person(s) or group(s) do you love the most?
I think we've already covered this drek, haven't we?
hich person(s) or group(s) do you hate the most?
Whoever wrote this survey is on the top of my list.
Which person(s) or group(s) do you respect the most?
I respect my people and my heritage, so I respect the NAN.
Which person(s) or group(s) do you fear the most?
Each corp's worse than the last, chummer; when there's a hundred knives at your back, does it really matter which one's sharpest?
What pastime (that you participate in regularly) gives you the most enjoyment?
Music.
What pastime (that you participate in regularly) gives you the least enjoyment?
Filling out surveys.
What annoys you the most?
Surveys.
Do you have a good luck charm? What is it, and why?
There's a couple old buttons that fell off my jacket a few years ago. I keep them in my pocket because they give me comfort. I have no idea why.
What is your most treasured possession (and why)?
1965 Gibson Firebird V, classic sunburst, original hardware.
What are your three most common dreams?
I commonly have dreams where all my teeth fall out, but that's all I can really think of. Everything else is pretty random.
What place would you most like to visit?
I'm right where I wanna be, chummer.
What would your ideal personal space be like?
So long as it's quiet, I'm happy.
How curious are you, and how far would you go to satisfy your curiosity?
I'm a really curious person, but I wouldn't put myself in any personal danger to satisfy my curiosity. Frag that.
