I'm thinking of starting up a run using one of my wealthier characters. It
would involve the killing of one the yakuza oyabuns in Seattle (or somewhere
else if Seattle seems to crowded). Anyone have any ideas, hints, advice, etc...

Also if you missed it the first time, I plan on saying who wins the kill Sword
of God contest on Monday. So everyone should find out on Tuesday or Wednesday,
depending on when you get your mail.

.

Just before SHADOWTK was created, I played in a campaign where a
character was killed by the Yakusa, and we spent the the next three months
destroying that clan to avenge him. Greatest SR campaign I ever played. It
was also the last time I used Raven as a character outside TK.
I always wondered if we got them all.
Instead of a run, what about your Oyabun being a friend/kinsman of the
guy we took down, looking for revenge? Ya think?

Okay some basic info on the run. The wealthy character I plan on using as the
backer had his entire family wiped out by two Yakuza groups (this is Merlyn if
he's on the cast listing yet). He's already killed one oyabun (I hope I'm using
the right term) in Tokyo and the second knows he's next. Merlyn is a street
mage (big suprise) with just over a million nuyen. The run would involve him
hiring other runners to help him kill the second oyabun. Probably 4-5 runners,
getting paid 100-150K.

The yakuza assassins might work well as some sort of counterstrike. As before
any ideas, advice, hints, etc...are appreciated. Thanx.

I'm going to be starting up the new run I mentioned earlier, either tomorrow or
Friday. I'm thinking of using SanFran or LA as the location. If you've got any
ideas or advice or if you're just intrested in participating tell me. If you've
forgotten the run's going to about assassinating a Yakazu oyabun (right term?).

I'm interested in joining your run. I've got a decker that doesnt have much
experience (more info in the cast). This is my first run so I may need help.
That is, if you dont mind a newbie on the run. Please contact me.(e-mail or
otherwise)
Thanx,

Do to the fact that I wish to pass my classes and not get kicked out of college
I am going to have to postpone my kill-the-oyabun run until later. And since
school will soon let out and I don't have access to a real computer or even a
fake one with a modem I probably won't be able to post anything until after
Summer.

Join the club.
Unless I get a job with net access, which is about 50/50, as things
are working out... (TV stations like to have net access) ..I'll be
making my last postings sometime near the end of June...
