>>94407082What happened to Shadowland, chummer?
>>94407408Crash 2.0 pal
I see that we’re lacking a topic of discussion. Let me give you all one.What’s the worse/best/wackiest teammate that you ever partnered with?>Male prostitute/birthday clown troll named Buzco the juggler, novacoke connoisseur >He’s a physical adept that juggles bowling balls and dumpsters at people’s heads>Heard he was part of 40+ teams
>>94408012My fixer is the biggest fucking nutjob on the planet. Without fail he manages to put together the worst teams for every single job he scores. >We're infiltrating a high-sec humanis club? Better include the french ork face who absolutely refuses to go anywhere without their saxophone.
>>94408523Sometimes I wonder if those fixers are filtering us out. Any street punk with a gun can call themselves a shadowrunner, Put the worse of them together and if they survive then good on them.
Hey is it normal for mages to age ~10 years in a month, and for their eyes to turn completely black in another? Asking for a friend. Also, how rude would it be to hire someone to assense them?
>>94409714Pretty fucking rude. That'd be like hiring a PI to investigate something on someone, a mark of true distrust. That's practically, like, two steps away from snitching on the guy for something.
>>94408012>Reichsbürger summoner that proclaimed an unfinished megablock as his sovereign state>HPBD and Sternschutz didn't give a fuck as it was on the ass end of Strausberg-Fredersdorf>Tried to vassalize the local gangs but failed horribly on account that his player min-maxed into summoning, leaving him with the charisma of a brick>Melted a small apartment block with a level fourteen fire spirit while tweaking on manashrooms and blowing all his edge on the summoning roll
>haven't played SR in a while>decide to do a quick solo run>open up chummer>character is goneHoly shit feels bad mang.
>>94410205Trust is a two way street and this street has both go-gangers and lone star blockages. /As far as I know/ he's never crossed any line while we're on a run, and we've pulled through in situations that would have offed slower runners. But how much trust can you really have in a guy when you know he's capable of mindfucking? It doesn't take a lot of time before you start secondguessing if what happened really happened
>>94409714Bend and some NPC in 2D storytime spent some time on an astral plane and magical time fuckery aged both by like a decade
>>94407082Got a job coming up involving a high-class party. What are some interesting things I can do with a Machine Sprite and a Shiawase I-Doll?
>>94408012>best: ex-military purple Oni streetsam. A really swell drinking buddy between runs. Very level-headed on the job. She was perhaps the only voice of reason in this gaggle of chucklefucks.>worst: burnout adept with the intelligence of a hamster and a violently twitchy trigger-finger. She got us into so many fights that could've easily been avoided had she just shut the fuck up. >wackiest: a fucking cyberzombie who thought he was a superhero from a children's trideo show. The amount of corpsec, milspec, and even dragon's blood that was spilled on that last job would turn a bloodmage vegan. Thankfully, none of it was traced to me, and I had enough nuyen from the payout to retire... or I would have if I didn't blow it all on slots and cards again.
>>94421441Uh you're not one of them who gets "possessive" about their drones, are you? If you can't imagine security making a... thorough check for cyberware on your robo-girlfriend then leave it at home. One of my previous acquaintances did something similiar and decided to bring their doll to a recon mission. We gave him a lot of shit about it until the doll introduced 'herself'. The doll was all dolled up, of course, but what's more is that it was so damn charming. He'd obviously done some real expensive work on it because it was probably the best Face we ever had. Which worked out great until his robo-girlfriend started flirting with some executive for info.
>>94409714That's just what the job does to you. I'm only 28 and I'm already starting to see gray hairs.>>94412522Hey buddy, I think you got the wrong thread. The /srg/'s two blocks down.
>cant get augmented for reasons>keep getting turned down for decker jobs despite being a veteran runnerWhat has the world come to when your reputation is ignored just because you can't hot-link
Anyone know where I can find new and cheap 'wares? God, I feel like I always need new ones. I need... more... Even after replacing my arms and legs, it's not enough
>>94422131A drone is a drone. I don't care what happens in meatspace. But meaties like dolls, and that's convenient for me. Besides, if anything gets too weird, my sprite can just jump out, and the doll will continue on auto-pilot.Sprites are for keeps, though. You don't touch my sprites. Anyone who tries something funny gets a Spike with extra biofeedback.
>>94425632What the fuck is a sprite, anyway? The most anyone has ever explained it to me was "think a mage's spirit summon, but in the Matrix." I think I get that much.
>>94408012ran with a necromancer once. dude kept the ashes of his grandma on standby for summoning purposes. on second thought, i think he just said that to make himself look cooler than he actually was.
>>94425203>only 28>onlyElf detected. You guys are truly the college art majors of the 6th world. Yeah bud good luck "finding yourself". The rest of us are busy squeezing some life out of the ~50 years we have on earth. Prick.>>94425373New? No. Cheap? Yes. Bring a hatchet on your next run. Or a mono-fil chainsaw
WHY THE FUCK IS MY FIXER ALWAYS PUTTING ME ON TEAMS FULL OF NEOTENIES?WHY ARE THERE SO MANY ANKLE-BITTING SHADOWRUNNERS?
>>94425373You can't eat your cake and have it too, chummer. If you want to improve your efficacy in killing, you're going to have to dish out some serious nuyen. >>94427094Of course a trog would be green with envy.
>>94409714Normal? No, they did something or got hit with something. If they're not talking about it , you could risk poking around. But expect fallout.
>>94427782>hard tJeez man, ease up. Everyone knows elves are charismatic but you can't expect your dashing good looks to do all the heavy liftinWhen they've come for the orks they're coming for us. Never forget that>>94428898Prepping for the worst, what are some good ways to notice you've been mindfucked? I've started recording my entire runs to go through afterwards but that's a huge security risk obv and doesn't help in the momentAre there autosofts that could recognize it and warn me?
>>94425632>tech calling anyone else a meatieironic
