Yeah, she'll be at the party... Just have to get the sheet finished, and quickly! (By the way, everyone can call me Impy. :) It's considerably fewer letters.)
:) I'm totally confirmed, Kiri, no matter what the phobia is. It will be easier for me to understand and craft the vagaries of my character if I know what it is beforehand, and that's why I asked. As for our group... Would anyone like to have a big sister? (Mitch would work well, as my character will be a bit raucous; they could be foils, of a sort) My idea was that she'd be less connected to the group, mostly knowing them through her sibling, and more focused on getting herself and said sibling out of the nightmare world than aiding everyone else. She'll come around after getting beat up by nightmare-beasts a few times, though...
^-^ What's better would be a modular arm, sometimes a scythe, sometimes a multitool-deck, sometimes a fire extinguisher... An arm for every occasion. Anyway, I'm a big fan of sci-fi mysteries and the like; I'll keep an eye on this, see how many players you find. I might join, if it looks like you're short (perhaps with a Kotorian or a Vexi researcher... liberally augmented either way, of course).
Mm, yes, that was pretty much what I expected. :) Thank you for the explanation, Spades. If it isn't too much trouble, I really would like to know. I'll officially reserve the Purple lantern and all that. Could you PM it to me?
Well, I'm mostly concerned about having this fear (it seemed like each lantern had a specific phobia that it was connected to) be a driving force in the character's actions, and not being able to choose what it is. It's limiting. I'm attempting to mitigate how limiting it is by making a character that would be driven by that fear anyway, especially now that she's plunged down the rabbit hole...
Maybe this is strange to ask, but could I know what the phobia is for the Purple flame before I make my CS? I'd rather my character not spontaneously generate a fear just because she touched a magic lantern-thingy, you know? She should already have the fear, and the lantern could, well... bring it to light. If I know what phobia you want the carrier of the Purple flame to have beforehand, I can use that as part of the creation process, and make a character that would realistically have that phobia already. -- :) Anyway, this seems like a very interesting setting, lots of potential for brutality and loss and all those lovely emotional dilemmas that heroes should have. Hopefully you see this as a reasonable request; I think I would enjoy this game.
I have no way to access Skype, or to contact people other than through this currently malfunctioning site... And I haven't been able to get a post actually posted here since my last one in this thread. Obviously, the OOC conversations are not happening here anyway, and I'm not privy to them, so I have to simply wish you luck.

I hope you all have fun with the RP.

Yup, that's what I thought. :) Thanks for the clarification, Corsair.

The Shadowrun elements are pretty obvious, as well: bending, spirits, all that, meshed with cybernetic supersoldiers and guns and supercomputers... Yeah.
Oh, I've definitely been assuming Shadowrun-levels of cyberpunk, but I could be wrong. Actually, Jester (Spoony?), why don't you PM me? I love having pre-established connections between characters, and ours could come from similar backgrounds (living on the streets of Republic City). They could even be partners.

Liriia, it's okay, you've helped me clinch certain aspects that I was conflicted about. :P It is definitely a good backstory, though, and I'm glad you went for it. The main difference for mine was that her parents were failed employees, living in abject poverty.

EDIT:
Corsair said With their power has come a new age of technology, from wireless communications and firearms to computers and internet. Jet aircraft, rocketry, cybernetics, spirit power, satellites, all are facts of life.

This is what I was basing my assumption on ^
I'm currently rewriting my character's backstory; it was too similar to Kai Zhèng's. Lots and lots of fighters among the applications, though, and no technical wizards yet! I might still be able to fill the decker/rigger role.
