I will get actual words to all my thoughts and put them up on the character sheet as well.

Ok, so I think I made some mistakes when I first made Whisper
Apparently I had 4 Skill groups, but I shouldn't have any... Chummer5a lets me add up to 20 skill group points, but is not tracking what I should have... I don't think I bought them with karma originally, because that uses up more then I have. I'm still trying to work out how to make this work... I think I should drop Wall Running, as a STR/Running (not Gymnastics) based power it's going to take a lot to use it, and then as Whisper spends most of her time invisible and moving carefully it doesn't make sense for her to suddenly be running along walls. She should be Assassins Creed-ing this Drek and that's gymnastics which being AGI is already good. I could upgrade one of my other powers that I've gotten more use from, like voice control! Also I have to initiate to get more Adept power points?? Silk you might want to have my powers noted in your notes. Many grant me bonus's to defences in particular situations. Chicago sounds like an awful place And the CF zone sounds like the worse... Why are we here again?? I did have a fun idea though, Whisper could have hired a Trucker to get her from Seattle to Chicago. It ends up being Sheila, and right after getting out of Seattle, discover Xoch in her truck, as his new home is on the road with Sheila. (Sheila was one of his contacts) Or maybe she gets a lift with one of the other party members?

Chuck's sheet is updated so I guess I'm ready to roll. Still working on his Chicago contact personality and stuff and writing up some backstory.
Chuck flew into Chicago with his meager belongings, so no shared ride there, Ghost. He also has a motorcycle (2 seater) |

I do believe I am mechanically ready to continue. I'll work on the new background paragraph as soon as I can.

Sounds good. I've been holding off on reading everyone's background addition until you get it squared away.
Also, I forgot to add one more thing that happened to the group as a whole right after Xoch disappeared. Yes, this will come back to haunt the group but not right now. Remember, this was two years ago, and honestly, it would just be a small event that happened in your past. Edit: And I actually remembered to put this in my notes for a change

I'm now in the same boat as PCB. Mechanics are up and ready and shared and public. I need to tweak my contacts and add my "transition to Chicago" blurb still. But I could hack a first post or two, whenever the game is ready to boot back up.
Think I'm GTG now? I kept my one Greenie contact. He never appeared in-game in any form, so it seems feasible to just port him to Chicago without any loss of continuity?

So far, I've looked over and approved Stranger & Mortar's sheets and looking over the others now. Edit: I'll give a tentative pass to Cinch and Rinelle's Character sheets. I'll look over them in closer detail this weekend. I just want to make sure none get shafted like Whisper was.

Re: initiation, some GMs allow initiation at chargen and there is even a toggle for it in options. It would allow Whisper to spend 13 or more Karma on initiation and use special attribute points to raise her magic attribute. Just an option.

Technically it would be after character generation. But yes, I'm allowing everyone to spend that +10 Karma any way they see fit, including Initiation.

RP wise what would initiation entail?

Honestly, I don't know
I've only ever read the Initiation part of the book once but I think it's a spiritual expansion of Whispers mind or expanding her knowledge of understanding Magic in general. Edit: Like most things in the book, from what I remember it didn't explain it that well.

Well, she's never had much in the way of magic knowledge, played her more like a sorcerer then a wizard.
So Initiation could just be her time learning off Rinelle?

I brought my book to work with me today and did a look through the Adept/Initiation section. It was surprisingly a short read. From what I read Adepts only gain Power Points in the following manner:

Heck, I think it would be more likely, Rinelle made an off-hand comment or a joke and Whisper took it seriously Edit: It will take a month to do(1 month/Initiation). But I'm sure Whisper could find the time in the last two years

I made an information thread for Chicago in the Information Folder at the top. No interactive map this time, unfortunately.
Working up a post now.

And a little over three hours later the post is up. <wheew> That post did not want to go together properly. I ended up having to cut out the job offer for later as I felt I was rushing it already by moving you to the meet in the first post.
Feel free to post a little back and forth before Mis Johnson introduces herself.
