Congratulations! And a lot of patience!

BTW door would be STR + BOD, your character's weight factors into opening it. Right now though, i don't need any rolls, you will be able to open it.

Congratulations! Or... Condolences? Perhaps Farothel is right to provide both, so I will as well.

Guys, this is probably the furthest I've ever gotten in a table top SR game.  Just throwin' it out there, if I'm about to do something stupid as far neglecting security technology / magic that I, Gustovness, might not know about but my character Leroy should, don't give me the benefit of the doubt.  Call me out on it!

Lookin' forward to see where this adventure is gonna take us!

EDIT: Oh and that goes for how the SIN system works and tracking and all that.  Like to say... if I were running in real life, I'd know to throw away credit cards and cellphones.

Hope it’s no problem me using the Shadowrun slang extensively.

I'm embarassingly unclear on 'slitch'. I'm assuming it's something like 'sheila' or 'broad'?

Leroy wants to grab something to eat, any street vendor will do just something to replenish his energy.

He also wants a fresh change of clothes to change out of his stank-ass sewer outfit.

After those two needs are met, he'll want to crash at the motel for a night to recuperate before dropping by the bar and starting to ask questions.

@Gustovness: you will be able to find shops/vendors for cheap, mass-produced clothing (good for a few days, then you have to discard it) and foodstuff with lots of soy in it, even a few vending machines.

@all: Touristville is not really the barrens. It’s far from the organized downtown or even most parts of say, Tacoma, but it still has some order and law on the streets. It is true that most vending machines will contain stuff not worth stealing, and even this way, will be robbed time and again.

As for law enforcement services, I mainly use the security rating system described in SR 2050 p. 14, which has the following categories:
AAA – luxury lifestyle neighborhoods
AA – high lifestyle neighborhoods
A – middle lifestyle neighborhoods, residential and business zones
B – middle lifestyle neighborhoods, industrial zones
C – low lifestyle neighborhoods, residential and business zones
D – low lifestyle neighborhoods, industrial zones
E – slums filled with squatters, very low lifestyle neighborhoods
Z – barrens

Touristville is a mixed C/E area. Other parts of Redmond directly neighboring different districts are usually E, but only for a few blocks in, to provide a safety buffer for those districts. Most of Redmond is the real Barrens, strictly rated Z.

I am, but I'm waiting for someone to reply on what I said.

Sorry for the long delay in my conversation with the two hobo's.  I simply lost track of the fact that I had to reply there.  :-[

I had the reply apparently typed out for about a day but never realised that I hadn't actually sent it through. Whoops. Sorry about that guys.

Ren, please feel free to move Leroy around to take care of those things I mentioned... you see the world more clearly than I do.  Run the credstick as needed assuming everything is priced reasonably.
