Hoi Chummers, I was re-reading some of my old Shadowrun novel and glancing through the Shadowtalk of my various SR1 sourcebooks and wondering what those characters would look like in SR3. So here's the challenge. Create your version of;

Sally Tsung - human asian female Hermetic Mage (Body to Ooze Spell, illusion Shell, various combat and defensive spells)

Ghost Who Walks Inside - human male amerindian Street Samuria(Urban & Wilderness Warrior) Stealthy and capable of taking on a Wendigo one on one. A Tribal Spirit Warrior follows Wolf.

Kam - orc male Mercenary (he had his own crew too) Tough enough to barely survive encounters with Cyber Zombies, IE, and Bug Spirits.

Dodger - elf male Decker (seen in BrainScan) Top ranked talent. Ally with Prince Sean Laverty of Tir Taringire. Skilled socially as well.

Twist(aka Samuel Verner) - human male Decker/Dog Shaman. Lead a Ghost Dance ceremony and penetrated Renraku's Arcology Matrix.

And we are just getting started

QM

Isn't Sally Tsung white with blond hair?

Ye understand the Dodger already has a 3rd edition stats depiction?

Sally was white but it was implied that she had asian heritage. IIRC there was something about her eyes...and a missing pinky joint.

Kam wasn't a sam. He was a merc. The only chrome he had (I think) was the lower half of his left (?) arm.

As for stats,

Ghost (aka: Ghost-Who-Walks, aka: Ghost-Who-Walks-Inside, aka: Ghost-Maker) was probably the street sam archetype from the 1st Ed BBB--it was blue back then, but still a "B"

Kam was most likely the "Ork Merc".

Asian heritage I don't know, but it doesn't take Asian heritage to work for and make atonement to the Yakuza.

Granted, it helps - but in 2060 they do have the odd non-Asian here and there.

-Siege

BTW, it's implied heavily in one of the novels that Dodger is an IE, and he's definately a spike baby born at least 2 decades before the Awakening. Everyone, check your sons for pointy ears and if some guy calls you to put him in a private school, make sure he pays out the nose. ^_-

The Abstruse One

Spike Baby yes, IE no. Never Trust An Elf.

Big time spike baby. He was born in the 20th century. He might be an IE though, they never said he wasn't. He just probably isn't an ED-era IE.

The Abstruse One

I'm pretty sure that Sally's missing her last pinky joint as well. There was an off hand (no pun intended) comment about it in the first Secrets of Power novel. Maybe in the "after sex" chapter.
