Alright so i went over the 5th edition thread and there are already 2 adepts

so i'll jump in the 4th ed instead :)


I would love to play this character in a 4th edition game....have most of my background in 3rd edition, but have played a fair number of 4th....have not looked at 5th edition yet.
thanks


Everyone loves Adepts on the pathfinder forum - maybe Paizo should give Monks some more love^^?


4th is full I believe...


aww..darn...well if someone drops out, maybe think of me?? I will continue to monitor if that is ok...


Feel free. Sadly they are a bit to full of Adepts. If you have a Hacker/Rigger/Both you would be willing to run I might make an exception though...

They really need one of those.

The Exchange

I just found this thread. That stinks. I've been building shadowrun characters just to try to subdue the cravings. Didn't know anyone on here was running any.

Quote:
Addiction (moderate): 10 BP - Shadowrun

All of my experience is with 4. I didn't even know about 5 and don't have any of the material.

Characters I've built:

Crix - combat adept; knife thrower extraordinaire.
Lyst - generalist adept; breacher, hacker, social adept, jack of all trades.
Wexley - mystic adept; blind knife-fighter and healer.
Grith - mystic adept; unarmed fighter, touch spell mage.

If you get any openings, let me know.

PS - I'd read somewhere that the adept power pricing in 4 was about double what it should have been, so cutting most powers over .5 in half can do the trick. Some exceptions would make sense.


Sorry bout that. Keep an eye open and after a bit, mainly once I get the kinks worked out of running Shadowrun on these forums, I will have some more campaigns opened up.


Okay I have one opening for 4th Edition now available.

First person to post a complete character that will fit into the group after this post will get the slot.

Better yet D-Kal can I get you to show me your Hacker?


Couple spots opened up in our team, 5ed style.

We could definitely use a Tech specialist & a Weapons specialist.

Or some version thereon


Well... I was gonna give them till tomorrow night to respond or for the PMs to hopefully go through but oh well.

We have 3 Openings available for Shadowrun 5E.

Prefered Characters Types are:

A Technomancer/Decker.
Weapons Specialist.
Rigger.

Or some combination there of.

We are using the Prime Runner Level. Build a background of your own up until you joined the current team then you all can create a joined background of your first job.


Sorry, Mr. Fixer.

Didn't mean to jump the gun...just looking to get back into action.


I don't have copies of the rules past 3rd Ed.

That said, I remember the general sketch of a background I had for a Gaelic-speaking former gang-banger who joined a military (corporate or national I've forgotten) and gets burned during an international black op.

He managed to survive, but now he has to not be identified, in order to avoid the attention of the both his prior employer and the erstwhile target. One wants him to dead to avoid the possibility of a leak and the other wants him as proof.

Ultra-modern grunt.


well I've got a partially built technomancer from the original recruitment....


Get on it!

If you need help with #s and the like let me know, I'd be glad to assist.


@Hustonj: I am confused... So you want to get in on the 5E or what?


I am interested in getting back in on Shadowrun. Ed means little to me, other than not knowing the variances of the old mechanics in use.

"Paddy"'s post left me uncertain who he was responding to . . ..

Confusion seems common enough.


Paddy was directly speaking to Spazy there though I am sure he would help you out if you want in.


I don't think I need any help, but I'll let you know Paddy :)
I just need to sort out my sprites etc. as well as description/background


Ayup. Glad to be of assistance in whatever fashion necessary!


Here's the start of me retelling the background for the Ancient Celtic Street Samurai . . .. I've got a chunk more to add, and then what's been written needs filling out.

Been doing other things tonight.

Background start:
The Brennans had a long history in the Bronx. They were able to trace their line back to refugees from the Irish Potato Famine. The family line that was still in the Bronx was also still very much blue-collar working class. Colin was in the Merchant Marines, and basically never home. His time at home was always busy, though, as Terri had a home full of children. The two youngest were twins, Shane and Bridget. The twins had an amazingly deep connection, but they were extremely different people.

Every child craves recognition from their parents. Bridget received her recognition from academic achievement. Shane received his when he misbehaved. Each naturally increased their focus on the activities that got them the attention they craved.

By the time they were eight years old, Bridget had started teaching herself Gaelic. She taught Shane to speak Gaelic so that she had someone to practice with. When she started digging into ancient Celtic history and mythology, she shared her knowledge and enthusiasm with Shane. Now, to be fair, I should note that Shane didn't put up with anyone else in the family trying to teach him and lead him down an academic path. Bridget was sharing, not leading or teaching, and that made a huge difference.

When they were almost teenagers, Bridget was already doing high school academics and Shane was accepted into the local gang. Shane stopped going to school, but he kept sharing with Bridget. During this time frame, they took a liking to the ancient Gaelic version of their name: Ó Braonáin. Shane had started asking people to call him Kean, which means ancient, in recognition of the history Bridget managed to teach him. He started calling her Dearbháil, which means daughter of Fal, a legeandary name for Ireland.

Colin was very careful to be home for the twins' 18th birthday. Why? So he could throw Shane out permanently. He didn't JUST throw the boy out on the street, though. Colin took his youngest son to the recruiter.

So, he speaks Gaelic, knows ancient military history and Celtic mythology BEFORE we start learning anything about being a combatant. I'll have to try to finish the background over the next couple of days.


Omae, a WIP 5ed Character Generator

Been playing around with this for a little - seems like a good place to start since it auto-calculates tons of stuff for you.

Still a WIP, so theres lots of features still missing, though.


Cool. I'll use it to validate my numbers.

Its a shame, the guy who build chummer was building a 5ed version but found he didn't have the time or inclination....he's put his code up on an opensource site , so someone else can take over.


I would love to see that, but I can barely code well enough for BB posts such as these...not a program such as Chummer.

So, Spaz, what's the skinny on your Technomancer? Any interesting sordid details to include in our thus-far team's history?


My apologies, once again when I want to work on this cursed technomancer, real life takes away so much of my free time.

If you'll still have me, I'll do my best to get done for this weekend.

Paddy:
My concept is she's been through the ringer so to speak. Instinctivly using her abilities the emerged at puberty, her good-corporate citizen parents sold her off to their corporation: promotions all around! Hidden in some secret lab somewhere, the poor lass was subjected to many experiments to try to determine just how she does what she does. Unwittingly, the scientists were only teaching her how to do it better. Eventually, she became so proficient that one night she walked out of the facility, having turn the security equipment against her captors.

Escape was only the beginning. As usual, the lab was hidden under a rather usavory section of Seattle and the girl had to use all of her wits just to survive the night. But survive she did, using her talents to hack her way into store after store, taking what she wanted.

Passing a bank terminal, she realized she should have money. Hacking in she's transferred her starting funds into a cred stick when she was hit by the ICE; she only just escaped with her life.
