Hey, I'm bored to tears, and I still haven't gotten a job, and this place is my only solace.

So I'm going to start a new PBP run, and it'll be as short or as long as you guys want it to be. I need character submissions pronto- and I'd like to have at least three players, but I'll take two in a pinch.

You can post on here, PM them to me, or email them to my address, but I want to have a good idea of who is interested and who isn't by the end of the week (Saturday, my time- I'll check on Sunday, and that's when I'm going to put down the cutoff and make my decision).

The idea for the run is a high-profile group just starting out. Recruited from the best and brightest of the megacorp kiddies, national armies, and shadows, your characters are the up-and-comers.

Dazzle me, people.

I'm handing in my master thesis by the end of the month.
Until then, I do not exist.

Can applications wait until next month?

[kv]

Hmmm... I'll say yes, just because I enjoy having you in my games, ROOTless.

So everyone else, you just got an extension.

I'll offer a tentative maybe.  I'm glad for the extension, though, I'll have a better handle on my time allowence after All Hallows

[kv]

Well, you have until mid-november, so let me know. I've also heard from two other interested parties. The more the merrier!

[Ouija]

Wow I'd love to play! I can turn in my character by the end of the month (maybe even week). 

[Gilliam]

I'm interested... was this 4th or 3rd?  I can do either.

while we have so much time... what are people thinking of playing?

I think I'll hit up the technomancer/decker section of the book (depending on edition)

[kv]

3rd Edition... so, ya know... Deckers.

Have fun, show me your character concepts, and I'll be happy- the more the merrier.

DOH!! I made up a 4th ed technomancer last night... oh well, I'll refine the backstory and use him for tabeltop eventually... sometime next century when I get to actually play with someone willing to deal with the 'trix (none of my group wants to GM with that aspect presenting a heavy showing, at least not with the right rules).

I'll dust off the SR3 book and come up with something.

2063 is the date, I'm assuming?

[kv]

2063 works for me.

[Ouija]

Oh I extra excited!  I'll see what I can do with a rigger, more towards getaway driving and such.  But who knows what will happen.  I'll kick around a few ideas and see what I come up with.

[Gilliam]

well, the proto-chracter goo in my head has solidified into something, full details are in KV's PM box, I'll post 'em up here if he decides he wants to do that.  Just can't un-post a character sheet if we decide to run with a little more secrecy within the party.

I've got sort of a layabout decker... he's run into too many barriers because of his race to get a real decent job anywhere, but he's doing as well as he can for himself, as long as the landlords will let him stay.  No major criminal connections, no corporate loyalties or hatreds either.  Mostly a blank slate as far as rep is concerned.  More backstory details as I decide to reveal them (re: make them up on the spot).

I would suggest that no one posts his or her character write-up online at all. I happen to think that PC's who have neve3r met should not know anything about one another until the time comes to find out. Now if one PC decides to confide in the others and spill his life's story, that's one thing. But as far as I am concerned, our PC's should play things a bit close to the vest. Of course, it's all really up to those playing.

Okay, so where are these characters? I've heard from a couple of you, but I would like to see all the characters submitted by... the end of this week. So, Saturday, November 10th, 2007. I'll check Sunday, my time (Pacific), and then we'll go from there.

You can PM me characters, or send them to my gmail account: l0g41n (the vowels are numbers).

  -kv

[kv]

Okay, one week from the time that I post this (sunday evening, my time) the call will be closed, and I'll start the run with whoever has a character in with me already.

For those of you who have already sent me a character... yippe. I'll have them and we'll hopefully be starting shortly.

For those of you who expressed an interest but haven't sent me a character yet, I'm trying to include a specific type of character for this mission: the up-and-comer. Elite, professional, and connected, I want runners that have skills and training that will make them more than equal to any task- even if they don't have the shadowrunning experience, they'll have the raw training to deal with anything. I don't care if we have 'repeat' characters, or more than one of the same archetype.

Okay? Awesome! Submit!
