[Shadowrun] Shadowrun:Welcome To Seattle (4E)

[nande]

Slowly working my way through chargen, it's been a decade or more since I last picked up an SR book and it's all slowly coming back to me. Concept and first draft are done, but now I'm getting into the fun part of tweaking everything
How loose are you with fake licenses? Will I need one for every piece of restricted gear, or will just a Concealed Carry license and something like a PI License to cover my Jazz and 'ware be enough?
Also are Group Contacts allowed?

Hello sir! To answer some questions! One fake-license is fine. I am not strict on the small details as long as you say you have one that should be fine.

And sure! If it's something specific like the ancients just let know. They are currently playing a big part right now in the game lol every other group is up for grabs.

And I would just ask for an RP reason why you have them as a contact. Makes it easier for myself to RP them when you do utilize that resource.

Seraph Handle: Seraph Metatype: Elf (Dryad) Archetype: Social Adept/Face Appearance Diminutive even by human standards, with augmented red eyes and long silver hair that seems to shimmer with an otherworldly lustre. Can often be seen wearing the Catholic habit of her employer. Background A sister working for the Church of St. Edea (24 Hour Salvation, Confessions: Buy 1 Get 1 Free), a chapel with strong ties to Seattle's criminal underworld, Maria is actually a rare elven metavariant possessed of a mystical ability to bring other sentient creatures under her sway. Initially from abroad, Maria moved to Seattle some years ago and began working for the Church in exchange for the uniquely ideal apartment arranged for her by Father McGuire, the Church's custodian. Her debt is nearly fully repaid, though she has no plans to abandon her current position upon its conclusion, as Maria takes her current religious duties as seriously as her more clandestine undertakings. She earnestly listens to her customer's confessions as her mentor spirit revels vicariously in some of their more sordid tales of debauchery and sin; a constant devil on her shoulder that she cannot always ignore. Maria has a natural gift for languages and can hold conversations in nearly a dozen different dialects, and can even pick up entirely new tongues within hours of exposure. Such linguistic talents coupled with her natural magnetism and awakened abilities has given her a rightful reputation for problem solving in the shadows, and her silver tongue has opened many doors that would have otherwise remained firmly shut to other less eloquent runners.

Great looking Application!@Nande!

Is the Church something you think you can work in, or should I tie it to an established group; the Mafia or perhaps the Vory?

Yeah I can work with your Contact group for sure! No need to tie it to anything unless you want too!

[DoesAOneSave]

Count me in for the wait list as well should a slot open up. Looks like I joined/noticed it just a touch too late. :P

[SilverOcean]

Applications are now Open again!!

Hello All! A spot has opened in my game and I am looking for one shadowrunner who is interested in jumping in! This game has been going on for two years at this point and is soon coming to its conclusion. Currently the team in question is a close knit group of players who are all amazing in their own right! The characters they have brought to life and the synergy they have has made being their Dungeon Master that much easier!

I am looking for a dedicated person who is willing or wanting to join in on a final mission of the group! The advertisement has been updated to more or less give you an idea of what is going on in the story, but also give you a taste of the world that is shadowrun!

Some details on the game:

1. Posting Rate currently has been sporadic but looking to get back on track for once a week at least, thankfully everyone is good about letting me know when and if they can’t post. So I want to aim for once a week, but of course life tosses us curve balls so sometimes that may not happen and that's okay! Communication is key and I have always told my players just let me know if you can or can’t post just yet!
2. This will be the final mission of the campaign. I am willing to work with whoever is interested or gets accepted to build their character up in terms of power to be relatively similar to the others in the group already.
3. Pick whatever Archetype you want! Don’t feel you have to balance out the group or anything like that, as a personal note I have been trying my best to ensure everyone has a chance to shine in any combat, encounters and other moments of confrontations.
4. Currently the group has a Wheel Man, Mage/Hacker and Street Samurai.

If any one else has any other questions feel free to ask here! I would really like to get a player ASAP so as far as applications timeline for now will be TBD depending on interest. Please use the application template below for your character!

Hello, I am certainly interested and just looking to get back into the site after a long absence so this game really sounds perfect to me. I have had a copy of the PDF for this for ages, now admittedly I haven't actually read it yet but the setting is certainly one of interest to me. If its possible to have a few days looking over the rules I will certainly look at getting something up asap.
