Ok, Let's keep them rolling:

Henway and the challenging Mother:

[Jayde Moon]

These look great, Obidancer.

One thing I'd like to note is that trolls should have dermal plating that is noticeable.  A smooth skinned troll is actually a formori (like the character Angus).

There has been a trend over the years to sort of 'beautify' trogs in Shadowrun, but the trolls have an actual advantage (+1 Armor) from their dermal plating and I think that should show in their portraiture.

Sweet! Thanks

[Yok]

Awesome - thanks!

I actually fully agree. Something i haven't mastered yet.

Everybody, I apologize for immediately following up my statement that I will post 'EVERYDAY' with not posting today.  I wanted to post, but am wanted everyone to at least post once.  It did not occur to me that there would be folks who wouldn't post on day one.

I will post tomorrow morning my time.

Further, if you are taking part in SDS and want to join a Skype Chat for the game, please use the link below:

That should get you there.

Ok Jayde...

I hate to do this, but I'd like to change my mind a third time.
I originally made this character for shits and giggles as part of the "Sum to ten all C" challenge, but I really started to like him as I worked on him.
He's an elven former UCAS armed forces medevac pilot. Rigger/Adept with his own helicopter and everything! He's not nearly as effective outside it as he is inside it, but he's still good backup in a fight. (Of course, I DO realize that the times I'll get to actually USE the helicopter in game will be VERY limited, but still, I just love this guy. I'm willing to risk it.)

I give you, Early-Bird.

@Jayde Moon

Sorry the link to SKype isn't working. My skype name is the same Ravensoracle if you could please add me.

[Jayde Moon]

Ravensoracle or Ravens Oracle?

[Ravensoracle]

Ravens Oracle though I think either will work.

[Beta]

Ok Jayde...

I hate to do this, but I'd like to change my mind a third time.

I really enjoyed Redline's origin story (on the portal here: https://shaking-the-shadows.obsidianportal.com/adventure-log/say-nara-big-red ), so I kind of hope that in some future 'month' she might come back out to play, but as an inveterate character-waffler I have to admire the poise on the last minute switch :p

I was never playing redline. Redline was the character of whatever player dropped out to make room for Earlybird and I.

[Jayde Moon]

Redline was the character of the player you replaced in Tri Tri Again.  The player is unable to make the commitment to the game, so opted out.

I think Beta was trying to put across that it is both a shame Redline left and exciting that you are on board.

[Beta]

No--I was just confused about who was playing who, and picked up on Early Bird replacing Redline but missed the player change--sorry.  (Very much admiration to JM for keeping all of us straight!  Apparently I do much less well at it).  Think of it as "I make some friendly chit-chat to get to know the group better" "Oops, glitched etiquette roll .... "

My apologies for getting you mixed up.  I am sincerely looking forward to seeing late arrival Early Bird in action, however -- the all priority C challenge is cool, so pretty neat to see one of the results hitting play like this
