It doesn't seem like it would be much of a stretch for Lutwidge to know Sully through a magical performers message board or something.  Not at a contact level or anything, just at the level that people normally communicate online.

I'm actually playing a game of SR my colleague is running right now :)

@Celtibero I noticed you added the link. That's fine, I'll have a look after my game.

@reyjinn I'll read through this after my game today, it should be fine.

Really looking forward to getting started :) Where are you all from? Just wondering about time zones, for posting. I'm from New Zealand, though I don't sleep too much so can post for most of the day when needed.

@Poindexter I have you filling in on the drums for Deen's band in my first post. You happy with that? She's asked you as a favor, while it's not your normal genre, the band is solid and you're enjoying performing for a crowd again. You've listened to their music a bit, you know it well enough to do a good job.

Setúbal (50km from Lisbon), Portugal.

Edited the background somewhat (clarification and continuity errors), reading the backgrounds, i can probably plunder one of the contacts... :)

@Poindexter Technical troll metal, something along the lines of Gojira https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7_T8PLgtGU the band's quite good, the singer has good vocals on him too.

The crowd would be your typical metal crowd, though there are more orks and trolls that you'd normally see.

They are pretty open dress wise, you could be wearing whatever you like, it'd most likely be a band tee of some sort and jeans, it's pretty casual. I'm sure your old band had some merchandise if you wanted to wear one of your old tees.

I'm from Iceland.  Currently living in a tiny little town in the north of Iceland.
Work can be very erratic, some days its 15 hours, some days only 3 or 4.  But I should be able to post at least once a day.

Another in the US here, southern Illinois.  I just moved back here a couple of weeks ago and I'm still in that oh so wonderful don't-have-to-start-working-again-just-yet stage so I have very few limitations on when or how often I can post at the moment.

@Tenlaar Can I change your second contact from a motel owner to a bar owner? I want to have you at the bar in question from the get-go.

Andy, a sleazy looking human in his 40's. He sports Jamaican style dreadlocks, wears a ridiculous looking feather coat and walks with a cane. He runs Doolan's, a bar at the southen end of Fox Island, known to attract the attention of Johnson's looking for work. Dispite his flamboyant style, he has a reputation for keeping his mouth shut. The two trolls he employs as bouncers definitely keep patrons honest. He's been using you for for the odd job that requires the touch of a magician. The pay is average, but for now he's kept you off the streets.

OK, well i rolled there in the gopher, but took the ak out of the weapon mount first. I loaded up the drum set into the back and did NOT bring the MCT along. I DID wear the armor vest underneath my t shirt, but came unarmed. During the show, if it's hot (it probably will be), I'll ditch the shirt, but leave the vest as an "ODB" sorta fashion/social statement.
The only other gear i brought was the toolkit, which basically lives in the bed of the gopher, and a glass jar with about 6 doses of zen in it for after the show/during the break.
During the ride there, i broadcasted my fake SIN with driver license, but as soon as i parked it, i switched it off. Just another SINless bastard like everyone else on this side of town.

As a purely "style" question.
Which style of jumping in are we doing?

Style A- the vehicle becomes an extension of the riggers body, extra limbs and organs so to speak, through which he/she can feel and act instinctively. Special effects wise, this puts the rigger leaning with the motorcycle, sitting with hands of the wheel of the car, what have you.

Style B- The vehicle replaces the riggers body, so that he/she no longer has arms, legs etc, only wheels, rotors, whatnot. Special effects wise, this leaves the rigger comatose and flailing about inside a car, or seat belted to a motorcycle to keep from falling off.

personally, i lean toward A, but it's your call, dude.
