... Also. Id like to ask all participants to assembly their characters into one post (or even better, separated thread in Character creation section, lock it and add the link into your signature). ...

He used Big Black Book of runners instead but that is even better ;)

ok bio:

Nick Underwood, born in Auburn in 2039, was raised with his one sister Jane Underwood by their single mother Jacqueline Underwood a very successful local doctor. The Nature of his mothers job and having no father in the picture left Nick alone most of the time and this created a need inside him for attention founded on loneliness. Growing up he acted out in school to get attention, bullying others, causing trouble, and letting his grades slip, these certainly got him attention but not the sort he was after. In a rare period of free time with his mother he discovered how her attention focused on him when he showed interest in her work or Medicine in general, grasping this he would ask about her work at any opportunity and read whatever he could to keep her attention on him. Through the remainder of school he kept this up and soon put himself fully into the study of Medicine regardless of attention, his mother paid for his college tuition as he strove farther and farther. When he graduated he began his career at a local hospital where he worked for years and was quite successful, but that all ended in 2072.

He fucked up, that simple, a small nick and the kid died. It was a Aortic surgery, a tear in the muscles of his heart was putting his life in danger. Usually caused by stress the only explanation for this was genetics, and this surgery required replacing the damaged area of the heart with a new graft. He had just about to remove the damaged area to make room for the graft when he twitched, imperceptibly and for no discernible reason and the nick was no more than 3/4ths of a millimeter but thats what it took. The aortic artery is the largest in the body and unless the blood pressure is kept low is almost certain to kill the patient upon damaging.

The short from here being that the Anesthesiologist fucked up and the blood pressure wasn't as it should be causing the vessel to rupture like a water balloon draining the kid in seconds. The father, who happened to be the head of some successful local corp, singled Nick out and ruined him to make him pay for his sons death. Nick had his license removed and a stain smeared across Seattle on Every medical establishment.

Depressed he returned to Auburn and Moved nearby to his mother, now nearing retirement, and his sister, Owner of a popular bar for the Working class locals. Nick was able to use his Mother and sisters Popularity to start seeing Local injured workers and giving them medical service under the table that was actually affordable to these workers on lower incomes. Its been a few months, his depression is beginning to lift and as it does he begins to realize that what happened, never should have, that so much could have gone wrong all at once was a miracle, of course that’s only if it had happened without outside influence.

I've looked at this thread a bit and I'm a tad confused as to what the character creation might be.
Is it possible to provide a recap of what you want for character creation (400BP, 1000Karma?), or a pointer to a post where you cover that?

Thanks!
The Aztechnology ziggurat is imposing in only the way corporate architecture mixed with a an ancient culture renown for its human sacrifice could be. Its hard to really determine which is more chilling, though... the ancient bloody past or modern soulless technology.

The most recent post regarding that was 1000 Karma, but when using Chummer, I believe it was 750 Karma, put in Career Mode and add 250 Karma (could still convert karma to nuyen at normal rate).

Good question and it would be good to clear this out: I was dedicated to give a try to 1000Karma point build, that appeared to be standard for that character generator Ive mentioned more than enought IMO. I wasnt sure how it would redefine the ballance of the game and I wanted to see that in action. Well, we learned that without that character generator we dont know how it defines caps on points spending...like how many points you can invest in attributes etc. So the result was like A4BG said, using Chummer:

750 Karma Character generator, mark character as created.
Then apply 250 karma as reward, and you are free to exchange any ammount of  this points for money, for standard 1 Karma point = 2500Y

For everyone interrested, this is your chargen option.

Thanks both for the reply!

I've caught up and read the story so far, and I wanted to ask: Seems your using the optional rule where net hits on Direct Combat Spells that are used for damage are applied to the drain of the spell. Is that correct?


I also wanted to ask if you allow Ally Spirits?


Since I tend to play Mystic Adepts, I wanted to quickly check the way you handle max force: on an MA that has 6 magic with an even split of 3/3, is the max force of spell/spirits 3*2=6 or 6*2=12?

I know MA is interesting character, but the main reason Ive sent this call for reinforcement was to have person in the team capable of astral tracking. Take it into consideration. I know there are more ways to skin the cat, just so you know ;)

You make a very good point on that since Mystic Adepts (like standard Adepts) can never astrally project--and perceiving astral may not be enough for all tracking.

It isn't, or my adept could have done it.  :(
