From Wikipedia

Quote
In the Holy Land
From its foundation in the 11th century, members of the Order of Saint Lazarus dedicated themselves to two ideals:
aid to those suffering from the disease of leprosy
the defense of the Christian faith

Was reading up on knightly orders. Ran across them. They still exist today, which is kind of cool. Anyway, could they exist in Shadowrun? And if so, is it plausible that they'd switch from lepers to ghouls? Ideally I'd like to hear from someone who's come across them in SR fiction, or someone who knows some first hand knowledge on them. Just seems like a cool character concept to me.

Dropping certified credsticks in the bolt-holes of good little runner boys and girls?

I bought it a month or two ago. You happened to say something hilarious while pimping the product, and it was enough for me to get it. Went just now and searched it. Patron saint indeed.

...  And thus has CanRay been encouraged.  There'll be no stopping the book pimping campaign now.  Which is great, because it's often hilarious.

Nope, not enough, CanRay! You have to say something hilarious as well to make us buy it!

Sorry, too busy chipping all of Victor Vigilante's seasons to come up with something funny.

Come back to me when I have Benny Hill 2.0 slotted.

The idea of a Catholic Order of ghouls is pure awesomeness. I love it!

I might forward that link to my GM... It'd make a good backdrop for our attempts at covert entry.

I think the idea was an Order to alleviate the suffering of ghouls.

So they have a huge budget for firearms and ammunition?
