Personally, I'm getting a helluva rush out of it. However, I think
we need to do some serious thinking about this. So.....

I'd like to make a proposal:

NO NEGATIVE ESSENCE CHARACTERS ON TK!!!! And pretty darn rare
villains at that.

Can't enforce it, just like to toss the idea in. There's enough
power mad characters already (hell, I should know, I run most of
'em and I don't want anybody intruding on my turf <grin>).

But seriously, there's only 5 or 6 or a zillion highly controlled,
regulated delta clinics. Whoever gets in becomes a full-blown corp
pawn - or as I prefer to call them "corporate whores". Something no
self-respecting shadowrunner would willing let himself become (I
should hope). And no nasty corps coming in, grabbing somebody and
making him a big, bad borg against his will - you can just let your
body crap out, or the corp would shut you off (or cut off your drug
supplies) when you go power mad.

Anybody else agree with me?
