Bio

Old and beaten hat, don't take anything I say to heart because it only rarely comes from my own. Been waving around this RP stick for 12+ years, and if there's one thing I've learned it's that keeping things interesting is top dog. I'll take a character who is interesting and challenging for both me and the plot over the same group of misfit archetypes any day of the week. Plots follow the same rules. Unless it breaks the mold somehow, I'm just not that into it. Yoroshiku Onegaishimasu

Bump. Still looking for some players.
Sounds good, Terminal, I look forward to it.
Since it looks like we've got more of a small group, I spose I don't mind you throwing something up Az. I can understand chomping at the bit, I'm a bit eager to go myself. Never heard of doing something like that but there's a first for everything~
Not with the intention of rushing anybody, but in the interest of keeping a steady pace, I'd appreciate it if folks could try to get their character sheets submitted within a week so we can get booted up.
You're welcome to go with your gut if that's what you want to do. Just keep the setting in mind.
For a general time frame, 2 times a week is great. I'd expect people to post once a week or so at least. I've had a lot of trouble in other RPs with everyone prioritizing RL stuff to an absurd degree (And that is fine. If you have life stuff going on, you should absolutely prioritize that.) But if you can't take 20 minutes to post once every seven days, then you might have the wrong hobby, y'know? I don't really want to hard-enforce that rule, but if I don't start strict, it'll just be chaos in the future during college finals week (which, as I understand, is every week? I dunno. I don't get school.)

Also, I'll be waiting for a few characters to enter the fray before posting my own. I could bring her over from the other shadowrun thread, but if somebody wants to assume those roles, I want them to be free to do so, and I'll fill in the gaps. What with being the GM now and having to play NPCs, I'd like to make my character somebody who can advance the plot when the group needs direction, and my old character isn't necessarily suitable for that. Looking forward to seeing what folks come up with.
I will say for the record that I'm still learning 5e myself. So if you're not the most up to date person on that I ain't gonna be the one judging you.

I'm out with my brother for a bit today, whom I haven't seen in like two years, but after I get back I should be able to get my character up and running, and I'll be able to take a look at everybody's characters much sooner.

I can say that Cath looks good though.
Alright fellas, I managed to get some ideas rattling around in my dome, so I've started an RP myself. Anybody from here is welcome, use the same characters if you want even (just retool them to my skeleton.) But just so there's no confusion, the two RP's aren't related. It's not like I worked with Musket or even got his permission. Only reason I'm posting it here is because it seems like people are chomping at the bit here, so I wanted to give everyone word.
"It all began with a simple job." That's how all the good tales start, don't they? One run by a group of regular folk that suddenly turns 'em into saviors, or else winds 'em up dead. That's what an adventure is. Well, I hate adventure. Like to keep my nose and my shoes clean. Unfortunately, life in the sprawl don't always play to our wants, does it?

The culture center of the Confederation of American States, New Orleans, Louisiana, exists as a sort of cultural gumbo. Cultures mash and rail against each other, never quite mixing in the way you'd hope. Still, if you're looking for a place to get away from the tight, business-suit regulation of one of them uppity UCAS burgs, there's none better. Every day's a party here, unless you're nonhuman. Or anything other than white or black.

For you and your team, it was promised to be a getaway. A bad run-in up north meant you had to flee the country, and your usual Johnson provided you the means to get here and stay for a while. Expense paid, on the condition that you do a bit of work for some friends of his while you're in the city. Null sweat, you've done runs all around UCAS, even some in the Native lands. With your team at your back, you can do anything. But he did leave you with a firm warning. Things work a bit different down south, he said. Try not to get in over your head.

You've been provided a safe home base. A nicely sized condo overlooking the water. Real posh, must have cost him a dime. Beyond that, you've got official papers, everything to keep you in the city and on the right side of the law, if that's how you choose to play. As of this moment, you've been in the city for seven days, after which you were promised contact from your Johnson's friend with some work for you. You haven't been told any details about your new employer, only that they would contact you today. What sort of work would they have for you down here in a foreign country? If you wind up in a foreign jail, you might never make it home, so you'll have to play it real cool. Get you and your team through the days in one piece so that you can go back home and resume your regular life. Oh, and try not to deal with any dragons.




To keep it short and sweet, this is a Shadowrun RP I got an idea for off the back of another RP that recently got put on hold. It seemed like there was a lot of interest for it, so I put up a thread myself to see how it'll go. The OOC is already up so interested parties can go ahead and apply over there. There's more information over there too, so ask any questions in that thread if you've got any, though I'll be keeping my eye over here as well.
