I was tempted for Paige to get a Fostech Origin 12 (the sexiest gun on the market now IMO) but I realized it's wayy too heavy for a woman of her size and defeats the purpose she joined the force in the first place.

Housing cleaning.

@vietmyke and @Stormyclouds both have their post dates extended they'll

After realizing waiting for others to join in doesn't make sense when you just said they got their post dates extended, I will go ahead and post today.

@Mariana Collie much appreciated

They will catch up or i'll drop them next week.

So I'm really looking forward to this and enjoying it, but find myself in a genre I'm not familiar with, both police procedural and cyber tech. How far does your tolerance for hand holding go? Any recommendations for offsite research to learn what might be expected, or will it be okay to adapt as I go along?

@Mariana Collie I haven't played much police procedurals RP-wise but bio/cyberpunk are my favorite genres of science fiction. You can easily play off Paige (despite her Luddite tendencies).

As for offsite research obviously Blade Runner is the textbook cyberpunk movie. If you want a longer look into character-centric hard science fiction into the near future that has some police work in it I will recommend Orphan Black (notably the first and possibly second season, third season gets kinda off and the fourth and fifth ones are amazing but are nonsensical without context) but it's harder to find due to the fact Netflix isn't streamining it unless you're across the pond.

If you want to lean on the noire aspect of the RP but not science fiction look into Brian Azzarello's 100 Bullets comic book series.

If you're an anime fan try Bubblegum Crisis or it's very, very, very bizarre younger sister Silent Mobius. Bubblegum Crisis is the better show but Silent Mobius is the one I watched and I liked it despite its many flaws.

I'll try to look into those!

Orphan Black is amazing! I'm a fan, but have hesitated on viewing the last season for some reason. Like, and it's been so long now I'd have to rewatch to catch up ugghhh.

All the better since the first and second season have the most police procedural traits. Again Silent Mobius is very awkwardly paced and has SEVERE mood whiplash half-way through but it's enjoyable. There's a reason the anime came and went, it's a very flawed show (and again I'm a fan of it).

Edit: Also 100 Bullets is more X-Files than cyberpunk but it's VERY much an urban grit-based noir

What exactly are you looking for?

What exactly are you looking for?

It's difficult to be exact because there's a lot I might run into a wall with but I know, for one thing, that handguns aren't called handguns. They have more technical specs I don't understand. But then what would one call a laser type one, technically? What is the daily work expected of an officer? Do they have to turn in anything at the end of the day like homework? Or just keep general tabs until larger meetings? (Unless something major occurs.) Things that are technical is where I'll slip up and say something stupid.

I'll explain when I get home tonight.

@shamrocknrollput at least 200 hours into Deus Ex

Binge the Wire at least seven times in a row

But then what would one call a laser type one, technically?

You could make a name up, techs and specs are for choobs.
In general though they are called ray casters, something edgy

What is the daily work expected of an officer?

For detectives its investigate, make notes, draft reports (before they LEAVE).
In terms of paperwork, if you could call it that.

Or just keep general tabs until larger meetings?

Right now you're doing more action than paper pushing tbh.

ALSO sorry for the late response work had me KO'd.

@Mariana Collie@vietmyke@Leidenschaft@StormyClouds@shamrocknroll

deadline soon.

Posted, kinda playing Paige as an optimist that is probably only an optimist due to a background not surrounded by drugs and such. Oh sheltered Paige.

Was waiting for more IC, then RPGuild was under attack or something, couldn't really interact. Gimme 24hr, probably sooner? I'll post today. Thank you btw for the job description, so I'll try to keep in line there.

I’ll post tomorrow morn

So, the South is swamped with gang riots, correct? If so, I’ll have Takeo ride down there and make contact or assume his persona as Kin and make contact with some of his people. Might need you to make some NPCs.

U need 2 talk 2 the legendary julia fields first
