. . . but I'm kinda eekkiing on this right now.

You and I can eeek together. It'll be fine.

Just a suggestion, but maybe the people unfamiliar with the setting can go to public archives of starting characters and just clone a player character from such a sample. That way they only have to worry about character decisions and point rolls.

That is PERFECT for me DT, thanks!

What's a magical rocker? And gunslinger is pretty much what it says it is?

galenbd · Feb 25, 2015

Both of those are magical types. Magic has blended with the entertainment industry in interesting ways. The Magical rocker could help shadowrunners with distractions or making connections in the entertainment industry.

Gunslinger is more combat oriented. Most of the physical adepts built in the original editions tended to be martial artists focusing on hand to hand combat. That archetype has evolved some to allow mystical effects to more readily applied to firearms.

I'll take a Troll Thug. A former body guard in the local clubs. a brute for hire.

galenbd · Feb 25, 2015

Updated character concept. Character sheet is almost done.

Prometheus

Deuce Traveler · Feb 25, 2015

Just to update, we have the following players:

CanadienneBacon
Shayuri
Unsung
Queenie
galenbd playing Prometheus the Combat Mage
Strahd_Von_Zarovich playing Floch the Troll Thug

Again, I can run a short game with any amount of players as it will only be a snatch and run operation anyway.

Possible city locations from a wiki I found: http://shadowrun.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Cities

Seoul, Hong Kong, Omaha, New Orleans, Stockholm, Tehran and Tel Aviv have all been mentioned. We don't need to pick a city for this one shot, but we will want to if we continue afterwards.

I'd go with Prometheus the Combat Mage

Unsung · Feb 25, 2015

Seoul and Stockholm sound good. I know that Seattle and Denver have a lot going setting-wise, which I'd definitely be interested in, and the Flux State of Berlin also has a certain appeal, coming from playing Dragonfall. Depending on what version of the setting this is, and how much it will really come up in this first run.

I think I'd be interested in playing either a flashy gun fu sort of character or a drone rigger. I still need to sift through that page of archetypes to see what my options end up being.
