[OOC] [Shadowrun] Sprawl Stories (Accepting new players!)

[Ollumhammersong]

That's a lot of guns.

We are keeping track of ammo and stuff in this right? it only seems logical not to have unlimited ammo.

To some degree, yes. Not gonna force people to keep track of every bullet, but I trust that everyone will be able to add a "then (s)he reloaded" after a period of sustained fire or something. That work for you guys?

[Ollumhammersong]

I only ask because things like running out of ammo and the like are always common in shadowrun, I don't want to keep track of every bullet I shoot. I think I would end up shooting myself keeping track of that. But I will probably include things like running low, carrying ammo is heavy.

[Munk]

Oh, and I think we should be able to get going very soon! I'm gonna try and check if Foster is still in, and stickman's not completely done with their character.

And I might bring in a character of my own. Seems like we need a hacker or maybe an infiltration specialist. Of course, "need" is relative; we can totally just make up a scenario that fits the team roles.

Speaking of, what do you guys wanna do? I think a classic "break into this building and steal this thing" would be fun.

Totally with you on that. I hope we can self-manage. Otherwise I'll step in with the big ol' GM hammer.

[Blue Demon]

Classic is always good. And it can give us a feel for each other. Wherein which we can get more elaborate.

[Ollumhammersong]

Um if we don't get a hacker I was going to change my character to be a hacker. It wouldn't be to much of a stretch. Though I probably wouldn't have a reason to keep the back alley pedovan.

We could steal an employee? or a blueprint and kill the employee who wrote the blueprint wo he cant make a new one.

[Munk]

Yeah, rigger/hackers are sweet. Would also add the challenge of having to hack something while keeping track of drones. That might not be too bad an idea...

I like the blueprint thing.

[Blue Demon]

I can lure the employee out. :D

well I wasn't planning on doing both. I was going to do one or the other. I could try I suppose. but why would I need spy drones when I can hack cameras?

[Munk]

Yeah, okay. I'm guessing you'd prefer being a rigger? Cause I can whip up a hacker in five secs.

[Ollumhammersong]

if your not against playing a hacker. neither am I in the end.

if you had your heart set on a different archtype I can bend.

[Ollumhammersong]

I can take a swing at being both, though I wont be able to be great at both just 'meh at both.

[Munk]

Heh, I'll get to work on a hacker as well as a mission. Thinking either badass ork combat hacker or arrogant teenage genius.

I'll talk to you guys later! It's late, my internet connection is failing and I may be slightly drunk. Take care now ♥

[The Roman07]

I updatd the history on my cs and changed a couple things like name and minor things..

[stickman]

So I replaced the limbs by muscle replacements, that would work.I think I'm all done now, could I get the O.K.? :)

[Munk]

Yup, everyone has an OK. This is gonna be fun.

Okay, this is what I'm thinking for the run: Everyone will have som experience in the shadows, whether it be alone or on a team. You're being headhunted by a fixer named Opti—that's the Neo-Anarchist talking in the OP—to do a job. Still gotta figure out the particulars, but I'm thinking you'll be hired to do a run against a smaller corp (I like the name Koch-Huang Industries). Some scientist's worked out a new drone propulsion system or something, and Mr. Johnson wants that design. Of course, they don't want Koch-Huang just getting the nerd to write up a new one, so that's gotta be taken care of as well. The scientist has already been approached with a job offer, but has declined. Unfortunately for the runners, this means that Koch-Huang knows someone wants him, so he's probably gonna be under some kind of protection. As is the blueprint.

How's that sound?

[Munk]

(I'm trying to find a cool picture for the hacker and Jesus Christ you would not believe how difficult it is to find good non-sexualized pictures of cyberpunk ladies!)

[Lord Pie]

try just googling cyberpunk female characters - I had a glance and may be a few.

But yeah that sounds good for a first mission. Nice and simple and a good oppertunity to introduce and establish our characters.

[Munk]

Still looking! So far I'm going with this:

[The Roman07]

Check out Concept robots its got much more than just robots and could be used for the backdrop of this game :)
