Disclaimer:  This is not a game thread.  I'm not starting a game.  This is a general thread for character sheets.

So, here's the M.O.  You can post in this thread if you want to play a pBp game, but can't find an open recruitment thread at the time.  Post that you want to play, post who you'd like to play, or post your full character sheet and bio.  Hell, you could start with the first, move on to the second and then graduate to the third.  That's the magic of the edit function.

General suggestions for maximum utility:
1st, in bold, put that the character is LOOKING FOR WORK.  If you find a game with that character, please change this in an edit - Put the name of the game, whatever you like.  Your current situation is the most important information you could post here.  It's bad form to say you're looking for work when you're not.

2nd, go ahead and post your preferred archetype and your commitment level.  This will let potential GMs know whether to actively recruit you for the game.  So, if you want to play a Dronomancer and think you can handle 3+ posts in a week, let the potential GMs know.

3rd, if you build a character before the game starts, make sure to record how you did so.  Most popular choice here will naturally be 400BP, RAW, all books, but some people will favor German karmagen, street level, house rule, prime runner, or even base book only campaigns.  Being able to quickly modify a character to fit the rules of a game is a big plus.

4th, this information can be exceedingly long, especially if you have multiple characters for whom you're actively trying to find games (e.g. casting your net wide and posting up builds for multiple roles.)  Therefore, if you want to host the sheet on Google Docs, or other quick-share site, that's an excellent idea.  But still, a quick blurb and an overall point breakdown should help GMs get an idea of the chap.  [i.e. Race (20 - Ork)  Attributes (210 - Mundane) Qualities (+20 -30) Skills (124)  Contacts (16) Gear (40)]  A little shorthand description will sell the link to the sheet and help keep you from being passed by.

Good luck and happy gaming.

Posting Availability: Most days of the week.
Preferred archtype(s): I prefer Street Sams, Mercs and Physads.

I have access to most published 4th gen books. I prefer the Point System, but most willing to dabble in most other forms of char gen  :D

Angela Rogers a.k.a "Angelus" - Female Elven Samurai, formerly of the Tir Defence Force. Trademarked by her platinum hair and right silverchrome cyberarm.

Kira Vladik a.k.a "Ivory" - Female human physad, cybered after losing her leg in an ill-fated firefight with Tir deserters in Tarislar. Russian Native with ties to the Seattle Kombinat.

Christine Salem Baker a.k.a "Christy/Cristal" -  Female Ork Merc. An ex-KE operative, now turned Runner. Connections in the Ork underground. Both arms are gunmetal cybernetic replacements following a run-in with a very illtempered Mantis spirit.

To be continued.

Status: Looking for Work
Availability: Most any time. Have school, but I'm on the computer daily. Never played a PbP before, would really like to.

Preferred archtype: I really like making themed or 'combo' characters. Not super picky about what they are, but I lean toward the freaks and/or awakened characters. I don't mind which role I play in a party either.

Character: Open for debate. What would fit in your game? What do you need? ;)
Books: I caught 'em all.

For both i'm pretty much available without problems(for now), but i'm in a GMT +1 timezone. :)

Looking for Work
Stryker, male elf Combat Mage. Looking for serious work and/or company. Can do magic of all kinds, not only blasting, but is trained only in combat, magic and infiltration. Got his own gear and is ready to go. Has some trouble with law (criminal SIN) and a certain AA corp magical dept. that wants him dead/back.

Character build: 400 BP
Stats: Attribute focus, low-to-medium skills, no skills beyond magic/combat/infil. Uncommon tradition. Positive qualities 10, negative 35.
Full character sheet here.


Offering Work !!!
Three to four experienced runners willing to make a short trip to the Old World. Requirements: no obvious criminal record, able to work in unfamiliar environment, no corporate affiliation, no governmental affiliation. Job will require around two-three weeks to complete. It will be more than one operation, and will require hiring of local talents for support. No fishy stuff, only honest shadowrunning.
Mechanics: 500 BP characters with no further restrictions, gear availability 16, at least one matrix, and one magic specialist. Plus a face with linguistic skills, or language skillsofts. Characters will be deployed via smuggling routes, so no bulky gear allowed.

Disclaimer: Yeah, i'm up for a challenge. The group i've assembled is lazy and won't even decide on a game, so i'm not really willing to mourn them. I can make a PBF here instead, with Seattle-based characters going abroad. :)

P.S. I'd need to learn working both the numbers, and getting the hang of Shadowrun GM'ing there, so i'll probably make mistakes. Feel free to point them out, whether you will play, or not.

Merc' Directory

[( I am always up for a run, 'pending on when I am up and on the internet. I usually have a lot of free time. So, if work is available, I am interested. )]

~Entry #1~

Street Name: Bet
Metatype: Human
Age: 21
Maturity Rating: Extreme
Status: INCOMPLETE / Seeking Employment..

A/Notes: Working on this character recently.. He should be up and running for work soon. If a run becomes available. He can become available sooner.

Extra Notes: Once I get my first actual Shadowrun character completed, more will become available when I have gotten use to roleplaying with numbers.-- Descriptive running would be well appreciated but not required. I am open to many styles of pBp; First person, Third person, etc...

So, Yea, just private message me with the details. ;]

Yani is currently working the European Vacation job

Archetype is a sprite heavy technomancer. I can handle posting every day.

Yani is a 400 BP character build using RAW, arsenal, and unwired. I am able to convert him into a karmagen, 350BP, or 450 BP as per request of the GM.

Race: Elf, 180 BP in stats, 134 BP in skills, 10 BP in positive qualities, and 10 BP in negative qualities. He is able to handle the physical realm, so we are not talking about an invalid in a bed somewhere, hacking the world. Charisma heavy technoshaman hybrid. Follow this link for the full character sheet.

Looking for Work


My preferred archetype would be a face, but I'm flexible. (Hence the lack of character information.) I work at a desk-job so I'd be able to post frequently.
