Seemed like you guys were still heading out the door within the posts, so whether you step out to see me and the other two, or had already left via time skip magic. It is up to you. :P

I believe said decision has been left for you @13org, though you are welcome to consult me if you need it! Just remember the change in background music if new people arrive while they are still inside.

@Hekazu @SleepingSilence

Nina is probably heading out, yeah. They would probably meet Scarlet either getting in or when still handing over her guns to the bouncers at the entrance.

Small question @SleepingSilence, is Scarlett a well known figure around those parts? I mean, someone like Nina, who works selling and transporting information, could have she heard about a reaper with lupine-like features sniffing around? Since Nina was also taking a quick look all the Lt. Davison thing, just like Scarlet, that wouldn't be impossible, right?

(Asking this cos depending on your answer, that could open a window for both Nina and Croak to interact with Scarlet. Maybe even choose to go inside again as Nina would be definitely interested in knowing more about Scarlet, what exactly is she doing, who is she working for & etc. That and giving Croak a little extra info could earn her some favors with him. Croak would probably want to know too, since that's his gang's hideout.

@13org I wouldn't imagine so, least for average folk. Reapers probably benefit from lack of surrounding knowledge of people knowing about them and their line of work. She covers up her exact appearance most of the time, and isn't out much unless working.

But people with information, and go about with rumor and hearsay may notice a big red wolf. Because it's not something that would be inconspicuous. So Nina may have very well learned about her through the connection grave vine. So I'm okay with either choice for interaction.

I actually was going to have a scene where I address that they've been looking for people that -know- or are -looking for- Lt Davison, because places are beginning to work together to find his location. Because if one individual or group has a hold on him, nobody benefits. But if people work together, the strongest will benefit and everyone else thinks they're the strongest, so it makes sense to work with others to discover such an important targets whereabouts.

Though I wouldn't imagine knowing her employer/status. A lot of her old information (when she was Madeleine), which I would address later, was actively erased. But it's not impossible for others to have paid/found that information if they looked for it.

@SleepingSilence
Yeah, I know it would be almost impossible for Nina to know who is she working for due to secrecy
(the fortress & etc.) But that's something Nina would want to know. A motivation for her to try to talk with Scarlett.

But Nina would definitely know about rumors about a big red 'wolf' right? Linking those rumors with Scarlett could be possible then?

@13org Yeah. In the same way, my characters will be under the assumption that sometimes you can find missing information by finding who caused it to go missing. So yeah, you'd would be able to do that. Anything is possible. ;3

Howdy y'all, I was just poking around in here and just wanted to say I was interested if y'all had room for another. I honestly don't know much about the cyberpunk 2020 universe though to say for certain what all specific things a character would have, but I will try to do my best and I am always open to making necessary changes to fit the world, so if I make a cs, don't be afraid to really rip into it.

We do indeed remain open for fresh arrivals @Jollan!

If you want some character equipment info, you can always ask us, and I can even supply the base sourcebook for the TRPG we are using as our baseline, though even that has things that go beyond what we are currently really aiming for. If you have an idea we can look at, we can give suggestions based on that, so it works that way too! Just trying to keep a common level of ability here, as you may have noted.

I had three ideas really, but i only want to do one character. first idea was more of a guy who lives/wanders the combat zones for resources. He is the main one i have in mind actually as I have thought about him more.
There was an accident that maimed his body, and he ended up building himself a new one, but he is so ashamed of the state his body is in the he hides it under clothes and masks
here is his body (his face is behind a thin cloth)

as far as what he wears it would most likely have a post apocalyptic feel as he scrounged it from the combat zones
having trouble deciding what he wears




I don't have much thought on his skills and weapons yet though.


other idea i had was this guy

which I was thinking that thing on his shoulder could be some type of directional emp device.


last one is the classic hearty tanky guy. Ex-military sort who would work heavy security operations. carries a heavy weapon and can deploy a hardlight projection ai that bears shields that he can use to protect other allies or himself. though i think that may be a bit too futuristic, I don't know. he would be a fun one to rp too.

They all appear a bit advanced for our current desired tech level, I'll have to say. The one closest to working would indeed be character one, with them bearing close resemblance to our resident info broker Nina in the fact that both have had to replace parts of their body due to injury. I figure he could be some sort of a megacorporation goon actually: "Yeah, we'll refit you with some low-end cybernetics that'll keep you alive, you'll just owe every extended second to us." Do you think that might have something in it?

lol, thought so. just kinda took a number of shots to see which one hit the right target. ok first one it is. sounds good to build off of. would it be alright if I said he was slowly replacing parts that he was given with his own found parts or would that be a big no/ red flag to the other guys

The megacorps probably wouldn't like it if he went messing about with their "gift", so he would have to be extremely careful about it. Who knows, they might have put an explosive device in him that pings some parts to see if they are still there and goes boom if the check fails many enough times? But if he can circumvent any countermeasures the corporation might have put in, thorough great effort nonetheless, that might well work.

@Jollan You'd have to do a bit of character building, to explain what happened and how everything was acquired. Though as for the idea of having a super paranoid/vain,ashamed character that covers himself up in gas mask attire. Option 4 fits the cyberpunk/grim aesthetic the best. I'm pretty sure oxygen tanks were available in the Cyberpunk 2020. Though the last two pictures are definitely a bit much, in terms of technology. I also think the first picture can work as extensively a suit, depending on what its actually made of and what it actually provides/hinders in the process matters most, though I'd assume it be an expensive piece regardless.

I see y'all don't have a hacker/tech and machine savvy character yet. It would make sense that he could do that if he filled that tole, right? think I'm just about ready to start up a cs.

oh and @SleepingSilence thanks for the tip, option 4 it is!

the first picture (the one in all white) is essentially is his body/bodysuit. but yeah, he keeps that covered as much as possible

essentially, he has to do maintenance on it regularly to keep it going. there are compartments in his body that hold vials of various fluid, some of which he injects into a port at his neck and what not, and that is partially how he keeps going. he cant eat or drink anymore so that is one of the type of vials he makes for himself as well, it
gives him nutrition for whats left of his body. the rest is just maintenance fluids. upon receiving too much damage or not maintaining hid body, it can lock up on him.

EDIT: working on a cs now, but I have to head to work

Welp, here goes, hope y'all like it, let me know what I need to change or back off on because I know there is probably something, haha

I tried to keep most his weapons and such to simple guns. the most unique aspects are his left arm and how he can see. I figured the way he hears and can tune into radio frequencies to be kinda easy to do

I have my doubts on some random ripperdoc having the resources to make a personal thinking scavenging droid, but that may just be me @Jollan. Other than that being the source of his current modifications, I don't really have anything bad to say about it.

If I may offer an alternative, I would point back again at corporations. They are everywhere after all. A corporate sanctioned ripperdoc would be much more feasible already, but that would bring with it the need to bake some corporation who is currently rather mad at Jarred into his backstory. But that would just be fun, no?
