2075 Persistent Game World Thread
I’m looking for a dedicated team of high profile runners for a job (or jobs) in Europe. This will probably be loosely based around some of the runs in London Falling (unless a significant number of possible recruits have run them previously in which case I can come up with something else). Recruitment will be flexible and if we get a large number of applications I may well split you into a couple of teams…who wants to be on the distraction team? :]
As befits top end runners character gen will be using the Prime Runner sidebar [SR5 p64]
and Sum to 14 with availability capped at
18 and device ratings at 6 on equipment! The price for such generosity is that I want runners who can fulfil the roles of at least two normal runners (I expect some party crossover) or even be able to
go it alone for periods of time. You will receive one free contact which is likely to be an orc fixer called Torrent. Try to stick to RAW where possible but I’m not above considering options ‘outside the box’. All races etc (included infected) are possible although you’ll need a damn good reason to play a centaur!
Game Style is likely to be more Trenchcoat than Mohawk (one of the reasons for the centaur comment) so just bear that in mind when coming up with your characters…they will be powerful individuals who have worked hard (or been
extremely lucky) to get to where they are. I would like to see detailed character backgrounds with (or possibly even before) any stats. Given the nature of pbp I suggest
Face is a secondary role for anyone who wants to take that on but all runners should have some social skills for dealing with the movers and shakers of the European shadows (although there’s no reason why your runner can’t be a jet setter from the UCAS or further afield, called on for their particular expertise).
I will provide you with transport to the UK and a suitably sized ground vehicle for getting around (although it won’t have the bells and whistles of a true ‘rigger van’) and a disposable SIN for the duration of the run. It’s up to you what the attached ID is but I suggest you wait until I reveal more about the run.
This will be an ongoing subthread of my 2075 persistent world thread and rewards will be the same… you earn 1 karma and 2000¥ for every 2 IC posts you make (cumulative across any of my 2075 games!) which can be spent mid run (we can work out IC reasons for new equipment or increases to skills etc)…there are also bonus rewards for submitting info to the campaign page on Obsidian Portal (character sheet, contact details etc…)
https://stormy-waters-2075.obsidianportal.com/. Every post there counts as an IC post for reward purposes.
Character concepts can either be posted here or in the master OoC thread which will be used for all the OoC once the game kicks off.
