I shouldn't even be here, but I am going to bang my head against the wall and ask anyway. Has anyone read the non-dossier stories?
Okay, just finished the rest of the book. And can I just say WTF is Damien Knight even THINKING??

Of course, this all fits in perfectly with my home campaign now... ;)
Like many powerful folk, the ego says " Of course YOU can control this, you are special and better than others"
"Which is better and which is worse,I wonder - To understand or to not understand?"
"Understanding is always worse. To not understand is to never carry the burden of responsibility. Understanding is pain. But anything less is unacceptable."

Best Item ever: Red Sox 1906 World Series Ring

...

Edit: Forgot to Add: Miles Lanier ATT and Skills in Karma Gen = roughly 1712, and his Augmentations: roughly 7,125,000

XD

Yeah, those numbers look about right at a glance.

Got a question about the ring though...is it supposed to be 1903 -1904 Boston Americans or 1912 the first time the Americans won the series as the Red sox?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1903_World_Series
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1904_World_Series
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1912_World_Series

The 1906 series was against the Cubs and the White sox of Chicago :( sorry for being pedantic

Edit: Because i feel like I am being an ass for pointing this out without a reason:  We are wondering if the ring or the Delta ware would cost more.

His fake World Series ring is just, as far as I can tell, a running joke.

Or proof he's from another dimension that has a different timeline...

i do tech-support.
so i KNOW how that feels . .
and i have one standard answer for that:
"if you are doing your job right, nobody is going to complain."
Slight clarification:

Someone may complain, but the people who know, KNOW and will sweep it under the rug accordingly.

Having been the tech support guy, the supervisor and the manager in various and seperate work incarnations, I can guarantee you this is what happens ;)

It's the 2013 ring. In the SR Universe, they won it again.

Can you put Hatchetman in Street Legends 2? :) (Yes, you need to make it!)

You mean where they buried him?

...

Actually, he's probably more likely a bunch of softdrink cans by now, considering how much metal they had in him at the end...

He died, the Suits got him, and brought him back to life.

They had the technology, the thaumaturgy, and the complete lack of morals to turn him into something that was more machine than man, twisted and evil.

Made a good story though....

Oh, and anyone who blames ARES for anything? Blame Hatchetman. According to lore, he pretty much saved the Megacorp, and was fatally wounded doing so.... but the borgi-fied him to say thank-you....
