I'll upload one later tonight or early tomorrow, depending on when I get in from work! Looking forward to this, and yay at being lucky number 7.

Ok, great :)  Guess I'll keep my sheet pretty much as it is and spend the remaining £ on clothes. 

How would you like us to split things between the IC and the OOC thread?  I am assuming we will keep this one for OOC stuff, or is there going to be a new one?

In any case, roll for starting moneys: High lifestyle starting amount (4d6=16) =[4,4,3,5] = (16)x500  = 8000£.  Nice.

Keeping the OOC stuff here is fine. Feel free to post any in-game rolls in the IC thread, of course.

Ok, have posted!  First time doing this, so hopefully that is the right style of things :)

I'm not that familiar with Shadowrun lore so not sure if Infinity is a 'known' place in the community?  I am assuming it's a nightclub, and that Lynx will at least know this (or at least work it out with a fairly trivial Data Search roll) ;)

In any case, assuming nothing bizarre happens, she will wander over to the bartender and ask for directions to the Johnson party a few minutes before 9.

Dress is normal clothing because I am a muppet and forgot to buy armored clothing  ::)  She will probably also have a Concealed Holster w/Yamaha Pulsar (loaded), depending on whether such a thing would be legal to bring into the club.  (don't want to cause a scene before the first meeting!)

Currently broadcasting Fake SIN (R4) for 'Juliet Walsh', a Horizon journalist.

Infinity is the sort of "go to" nightclub in Shadowrun, at least during 4th edition. It's technically a chain of nightclubs, with branches in Seattle and other major sprawls. I've got more complete info at home in Seattle 2072, so I can answer any questions you might have about layout and such.

Ok, this came up with a rather bad timing, I'm out of town until Sunday evening, so I might not be able to post my character sheet or do much until then. I have the sheet with me on my phone though, and if that silly computer could finally accept to connect with Bluetooth, I might be able to copy/paste the text version.

Have to go for now, if I can I'll try to sneak in a post by the end of the night.

Not the best roll, but it'll do.
Starting Nuyen: 4d6 + 12 = 23 * 500¥ (11500¥)

Are we limiting our gun choices to the core book as well? If so, just a question about the HK 227-X: if I add a Gas Vent 3 for it can I switch between sound suppressor and the gas vent's recoil compensation? Or should I just go with the Smartgun for that?

I just had a fridge logic moment, in realising cyber torsos have a base availability of 12 & can't take customisation at chargen.
... And again when chummer showed me taking out 12k nuyen of customisation made no difference. Any issues with me altering the sheet, now that we've started?

Okay, so our roster looks like this:

Patches (medic/rigger) - irisheathen
Emily "Lynx" Harris (face/wheelman/rigger) - user-unknown
Tex (street sam) - SeriousOne338
Tian Lu (fire support/infiltration) - Novocrane
Harry "Maverick" Westwood (gun adept) - DiscoDwarf
McCain (mage) - obidancer
Hitch (datathief) - Ethan

We have 7, which is one over my initial imit of 6, but that's alright. I thought at first that we'd have 8, in which case I'd just split it into two groups of 4.

I wouldn't be too worried about overlapping occult investigators - adept and mage versions of that concept are different enough, and On The Run is primarily a retrieval run with investigation mixed in, so having more than one investigator should prove useful.

I have a character sheet for everyone except Ethan, and I'm sure he can get that turned in over the weekend. As you've all been so patient, I'm going to go ahead and start up a thread for us to get started, so we can all post ourselves in at a leisurely pace over the weekend.

The game I was planing on running fell through, If you were planing to have 2 groups of four It would be great If I could be the 8th

Looking at the characters it looks like 3 combat characters. 2 riggers and a hacker. And a mage. With people splashing in to face infiltration. So what would be ideal is A face/infiltrator mage, but thats pretty much impossible without being a pixie... Oh god. Something a little more reasonable would be an adept infiltrator face.

Well games started but just putting it out there.

Gun choices are also limited to Core. I'm not sure you can add a gas vent and a sound suppressor, since they both go on the barrel.

I'm sorry, but I think it's probably best if I roll with one big group for the time being.

Sorry it took so long, but I present to y'all Hitch the Face/Hacker wannabe!


Name: Jude Glenn
Alias: Hitch
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Nationality: UCAS
Lifestyle: Medium
Karma Spent: 0
Physical Description: He looks young for his age, human (looking), and has a ghost of a smile always on his face. Grey eyes, dark brown hair, and stands 5' 10" with a light, wiry build. Would be lost in a crowd were it not for his fashionable clothing.
Personality/background Hitch is confident. Sometimes, it's justified and sometimes it isn't. Born to rare middle-class parents, Jude Glenn managed to graduate from a technical college with hardly any debt. Everything after that has been carefully removed from the Matrix. He enjoys challenges and seems to be enjoying his new career in the shadows. His code is surprisingly light and he spends the majority of his time either testing the software himself or upgrading it. A sheltered life is evident in his compromised health; he is often sick or sniffly or sneezing unless properly medicated.
