quick question, what is Delta-Amyloid for armor?

[Xzylvador]

1) How do you get around town normally? If you have a vehicle do you use it all the time? Are you a heavy MARTA user?
Rafa's got his bike, but he's certainly no stranger to public transportation.

2) Where (in general) is your 'home'? I don't want or need an absolute address, but I want to get a handle for where you're located. Use a current Atlanta map. Remember that in general anything south of I-20 is barrens. If you don't know/don't care I'll pick it.
Anywhere a Latino gang is in control, put 'em where you want 'em.

3) Same token, can you more-or-less place where your contact(s) is/are?
Wherever you want his Evo-sponsored private clinic to be.

4) From the start I'll want to know what gear you have on you, what's nearby (in your vehicle if applicable), what's still at "home".
If he's not "on the job" , out hunting or taking pictures outside of town, Rafa will probably be packing a flash-paks, 1 smoke, 1 thermal smoke & 1 breathtaker gas grenade. Nothing illegal. He wears his armor clothing, he spent a lot of money making it look like normal -even fashionable- clothes. His respirator's always on him too (a habit from Seattle Puyallup's toxic fumes that's hard to shake) as is his camera, being a photographer is just his current fake ID but he's taken a liking for it. His camera case and butt pack have hidden compartments with more useful things hidden inside: mostly B&E gear and a couple more grenades. Again, nothing illegal but they do raise questions when all found together. It might seem like a lot, but they're all fairly small items: miniwelder, glue, handhend sensor, cutter & clipper are all the size of a lighter or so. His vehicle's just transportation for now and doesn't have much on it. The few Forbidden items (explosive grenades) Rafa's got are hidden at home unless he expects trouble.

5) I'll want to know your normal commlink status is - active, passive, hidden. I will tell you what 'local standard' is for a location, I'll prod you to tell me if you're changing or sticking with your standard setting.
Usually passive, unless it's a breach of social protocol, in which case he'll probably switch... unless he's on the job and doesn't need to be located.

Attitude p160, +3 Ballistic, +1 Impact armor mod.

Question to the players:
Both in IC and OOC posts, could you try mentioning the name of your character at least once in the post somewhere? We're a REALLY big group and it's going to be hard figuring out "Who's doing what now?" if everyone just posts with "He did this" or "She said that". (Had the problem already: Kirk's posting sheets without the player names in 'em, and players are answering the 5 questions without charname in 'em, so I'm still none the wiser :p

Kirk, mind putting this in the first post of this thread too?

ahh, no wonder I hadn't heard of it, I've never used any of the gear in Attitude before

it appears that the Delta-Amyloid mod only is available for normal clothing or armor clothing

Yes, but Kirk blessed it. Just as he blessed AR enhance and Color Changing (both also Attitude) on Nekomusumi's lined coat.

'nuff said, chummer

[Xzylvador]

Sorry, honest mistake. Chummer makes it all too damned easy to make a char and edit gear and stuff, lol.
You sure, Kirk? I don't mind editing it out and seeing what else to take. It's just a point or two of armor.

[kirk]

Yes, I'm sure. I'd actually thought about it (and a few other possibilities) before this.

This sort of thing is why I said tweaking would be allowed, by the way. Because I figure one or two of you might go, "That's COOL, GIMME." Or you'll all realize nobody remembered to bring a can opener. Or something.

1) How do you get around town normally? If you have a vehicle do you use it all the time? Are you a heavy MARTA user?

Mean Boris doesn't have a vehicle, he will walk if it's close enough or he'll use public transportation if it's too far. His preference is to use an automated cab, but they can be rare in the wasteland that he calls home

2) Where (in general) is your 'home'? I don't want or need an absolute address, but I want to get a handle for where you're located. Use a current Atlanta map. Remember that in general anything south of I-20 is barrens. If you don't know/don't care I'll pick it.

Mean Boris is a squatter in the meanest and most polluted part of town. He's not exactly a "people person" and even in this part of town people give him a wide berth.

3) Same token, can you more-or-less place where your contact(s) is/are?

Contacts are a local gang in the barrens

4) From the start I'll want to know what gear you have on you, what's nearby (in your vehicle if applicable), what's still at "home".

Mean Boris carries all his gear with him, though if he were to acquire something particularly illegal he would be able to stash it at his squatter pad

5) I'll want to know your normal commlink status is - active, passive, hidden. I will tell you what 'local standard' is for a location, I'll prod you to tell me if you're changing or sticking with your standard setting.

Commlink is typically in hidden mode unless in an area of town where they check for SINs, then it's in passive.

[Mirikon]

Mine looks fine. I put it up in the Black Book, in a text format that I can read better than what Chummer puts out.

== Background ==
Hank grew up among factory wage slaves. he was bright for an orc, he also had the mystical spark and his parents made an effort and sent him to schools. The corp they were working for decided to make an investment. So Hank worked hard studying hard and working as security operative - guarding convoys.

At one point he got interested in medicine. It started from researching on metatypes genesis, trying to aneswer the question on why he had become an orc, but that passed briefly skipping onto parazoology. It made him a constant wonder on what had animals Awakaned into.

Several years later the corporate shut down the money source and decided to cash in. Hank wasn't ready, he wasn't done yet studying, he hadn't even time to develop his magical abilities, wanted to study more. Looking for aneswers he made a research and tripped into military. The pay was good, risky but good. They were willing to loan him money so he could pay off his corp. Several missions later, he paid that off, at which point he took off to military college. studied military history (to study Sun Tzu  he even started to learn Chineese) and developed his magical abilities, when another subject took him off into completely different angle - the healing spell awakened him onto medical fields, he needed brain booster, loaned to buy it installed and studied further.

By the time he was ending his studies, his body wasn't fit enough - he had to be able to repay the debts he had, so he risked more and followed through his college friends until he find the 'ware. He borrowed more to buy the thing. Installation made him wolfing everything eatable around but the result were satisfying. He got back to the company rooster. Now it is only matter of finishing a couple of missions, paying debts and he could be back to university but now instead of studying he could make some actual progress in the field. He just took interest in longevity. Why do the Orcs have such a short lifespan. How unfair is to be shortlived when any breeder can enjoy a life a half longer? How much more could an orcish race achieve had their individuals lived longer? Combined his medical, parazoology knowledge might have led to an aneswer, if only he had the time and survive the mercanery dangers.

Out of the blue, the company got disbanded though. The colonel disappeared, and after a month of waiting, the payment didn't arrive. The collectors did however. The company had bank accounts, that had been below the line, it might have been reason for colonel disapearance. Whatever it was they said he owe to them now, and that he better hurry with payments.

Being in Seattle, knowin' nobody, and knowin' all kind of things impractical to civilized life - ie. academic problem solving and how to kill somebody within ten seconds, Butcher faced a new kind of problem.

Though in a couple of cases it's penultimate draft, everyone's character is posted.

Between now and Thursday, please post in this thread. At a minimum telling me you're ready to go (or that you need a delay if that's the situation).

Please stop using recruitment for table talk and instead move/continue your discussions here.

[nsweeney]

I am ready to go

^ Names! Please, use names! Going to take ages before I know who's Rafa got around him.
