You haven't seen the big hit have you?  Where the father spent all his money on making a movie about himself, and the daughter ends up helping the incompetent kidnappers?   What you need to sneak into your run is a trace buster buster :)

Its 2073, surely they have the Trace Buster Buster Buster now.

Sigh...now my next dying baddy that is going to betray the team must have a speech about watching the dolphins swim.

Actually it could have some rather comedic shadow run themes for a nice light hearted breather in between dark and menacing runs.   In any case the plot of this run seemed vaguely reminiscent in certain aspects.   I can still remember the name of the ridiculous movie in the movie.... I think it was Shiro and the Golden Spray.

The real question...is he trying to become a better person...or a better monster?

Maybe it's just me, but when I play RPG's there has to be an element of the hero in it for it to be enjoyable. I don't enjoy morally bankrupt games. Even if it's the flawed hero, I think that little vestige of morality is what turns a game into an epic story.

I once had someone wonder why the character that crossed over between stories (With different protagonists) "Went Evil".

I had to point out that this was how he reacted to a lot of different people as "The Hero", and was no different at all.  In fact, he was even nicer.

Agreed - if he were Evil, he's not even an anti-hero, he's just a villain.

The actual backstory on is particular guy is fairly involved...he got where he is for all the right reasons, but at the end of the day, he is not longer the hero he set out to become...he's a weapon with no safety, and just enough conscience left to know he is a monster.

The SURGE event just made it official.

Having access to Ares Technology isn't so bad, being in a room that's connected to the 'trix with holographic display throughout the whole room isn't bad either. Food, drinks whenever you want it. Over all not bad, but being unable to leave and with a Female Dragon? No Thanks! ~The Captive Man

Surreal moment for the day:

I've actually had a conversation with Marcel Marceau.

No, wait, let me guess.  He said, "NO!", right?
