[QUOTE="Shalimar, post: 1728298, member: 9600"] Just to clarify, since a Fixer wouldn't suggest people to a Johnson unless they had marketable skills, since the Fixer is himself putting his rep on the line for a the group, do all of us have marketable skills? Skills that would get a Johnson to actually hire a given group of runners over any other group, heck, since none of us know each other, we'd all have to show off a level of skill that would make us want to work with each other, I know I wouldn't want to trust my life to a stranger, especially if he wasn't absolutely critical. Kayla will ask in character (rather bluntly I'm afraid) what skills everyone has, just so we all know what neccessary skills we each bring to the team. For example, Kayla would say that she is a formally trained sorceress, with a talent for stealth, social interaction, and the use of pistols to back up her spells. Being as only 1 in 100 are actually awakened, and that magic is a seller's market Mages of any stripe are in high demand, so thats her in as well as Thanee's character, heck, a team with 2 spell casters is a leg up on the competition, and fairly rare. How about everyone else? Going through sheets it looks like almost everyone has at least something that makes them stand out and would get people to want to work with them. Velmont's Orc as a Wheelman/weapons expert, Dr Zombie's Troll as an Unarmed combat killing Machine :p , and No Way's ork is the arch-typical cybered to the gills sammie, so it looks all good.
