Alex was born a normal child, had a normal youth and lived the happy live. Ever since he was little he's been fasinated by law enforcement.  His favorite movies were cop trids and he is a big fan of the Dirty Harry franchise Wich he discovered at age 6, going around his deceased grandfather's stuff. His parents always loved him, and did everything they could to make their only son happy. This way he got a bit spoiled during childhood and had some trouble adjusting to high school since not everything there went the way he wanted (wich he was used to). During highschool it was quickly obvious Alex was no collega material.  When he became 16 his father enlisted him in the lone star academy.  This is were Alex meets Elvis Castello (beat cop contact) and Elly Flannerty (forensic expert contact). Together they go to training and become good friends. He followed basic training and became a cop on his 18th birthday.  For his graduation He got the lonestar swat cybersuite installed. Alex and Elvis are made partners and they get transfert to the Downtown district. They keep in contact with Elly, who is assigned to the Seattle Lone Star HQ. Alex gets married to his high school sweetheart Angela Girst on the 5th of october 2060.  They move in together in a small apartement in Downtown Seattle. After two years of working the streets Alex is transfered to the homicide departement and made detective. He gets some extra training in interrogation techniques and data search protocols. Alex is very succesfull as a homicide detective and solves more than 5 murder cases in less than a year.  He has to thank Eddy Fink (snitch contact) for some of these as he provided the nessesary information. Then disaster strikes for the first time, out of nowhere James starts mutating and becomes a Troll.  Lone star takes him of the streets and puts him on desk duty, fearing no one wants a Troll to come tell them their relatives have been murdered.  And Angela, who can't cope with his new body files for divorce. Alex accepts the divorce but he and Angela stay close friends.  He understands her feelings towards him changed with his appearance change. He moves back in with his parents in Auburn. After some months It is clear to his supperiors that Alex isn't suited for desk work. At that time, Lone star is forced to take action on the gang fronts in Seattle.  They offer Alex a position as lieutenant in the narcotics brigade and ask him to go undercover. Alex gets introduced to Sfinx (ID manufacturer contact), a mysterious man who helps him create an alternative personality for his undercover work. Because Alex is rather slender for a troll, he gets a muscle augmentation and toner procedure on lone stars costs. After some months of preparation Alex infiltrates the Ragers, a third thier Tacoma gang who's active in the drug trade. During his time with the Gang Alex gets to know Jack Flack (go ganger contact), the liason between the ragers and the ancients and John willows (dockworker contact) who helps the gang to storage facility's from time to time. He gets close to the gang leader and is able to gather enough information about there activity's to put half the gang behind bars for a lot of years.  In his final report Alex makes sure Jack and John aren't mentioned. The gang exactes its revenge by murdering Angela.  And Alex starts hunting the gang members. His personal vendetta against the ragers (who are of little to no concern to his superiors anymore) becomes a problem as he doesn't realy follows procedures to get back at the gangers Then there is crash 2.0 and all off Alex's SIN Data is lost.  Lone Star uses this opportunity to dumb him. When Alex comes home one night his mother and father have vanished.  He goes to the lone star HQ where his access gets denied. It becomes quickly clear to Alex that he's on his own from now on. Lucky for him he still has Elvis and Elly as friends and they tell him the story about his supperiors using the opportunity to get rid of Alex.  Alex turns to sfinx to provide him with a new identity as Harry Eastwood, and starts a private detective bureau from his parental house.  Besides the classical follow my wife/husband jobs and some lost animals he hasn't got much work to do. In his spare time he keeps searching for his parents, so far without any success.  Alex starts visiting the Aurora bar (bartender contact) more and more often and gets a bit of a alcohol habit.

It is off course customized to look like Dirty Harry's favorite gun

What is this high power chamber modification, can't find it
I'll make some minor changes to the lifestyles (hadn't read any of the advanced lifestyle stuff before but it sure adds some flavor)
As the browse program is the only thing he's running on his commlink I'll optimize the thing for that program

[mdp]

If it's from war that explains why I can't find it in my excell character generator (war is not included in the generator I use)
I always use my bullets wisely
However, I don't see much advantage in the high power rounds (DV+2 AP-1) over Ex -Explosives (DV+1AP-1)
Unless off course high power rounds come in Ex - explosive form
this would give the gun a DV  8 AP -3 (standard high power rounds) instead of DV 7 AP -3 but extra recoil (ok the personalized grip catches a point of recoil but still it would take one die away)

[Sichr]

I forgot that you are not likely going to use silencer
So the ex-ex is OK. Forget about that High powered thing.

[mdp]

I'm not sure what you mean with use fastjacks code, do I use it to modify the post in character creation or do I somehow use it to put a post in big black book o runners?

[mdp]

I understand that I have to copy the code and fill in the XXXX's but in what post do I copy it?
the one we are commenting now or do I create a new post in the big black book o' runners?

BTW the excell sheet you linked is the same I'm using, nog sure wich version I have though

Modify your first post in this thread to that code, that would be enought. In the Black Book of runners, post just a link to your character and the status: Currently employed: Crime scene 1



I know its anoying. But, lets try to make it a standard, It would take you only a few minutes.

[Deliverator]

Just so you know, you use three names in your background. James, Alex and Harry

[mdp]

Harry Eastwood is the name he goes by these days, Alex Berstein is the name he was born with and James is a leftover from when I was deciding on names
I'll correct that one

[Loki]

Am I the only one who thinks that'd be a great porn name? The movie titles even largely lend themselves well to it. Magnum Force, Sudden Impact, The Dead Pool is easily The Head Pool.

Sorry, /end digression.

Pretty solid character, I'd grab analyze so you have a chance to tell if you're being hacked. And juggle some stats for a couple more edge points.

[mdp]

I almost never use edge, that's why I don't buy extra edge points
The analyse I'll have to buy in game since all the money is gone with creation

[Sid]

I'd pick East Hardwood for a porn name before Harry.

See if you can get an advance on your first run, and buy an Iris Antivirus software suite. (Unwired, 1500¥) It's worth it.

[Sichr]

I'd pick East Hardwood for a porn name before Harry.

LOL
