Hoi,

Ok... I admit it... I'm bored... and the vampire sting kind of got me
thinking... so I came up with a few cards and I would like to know what
others think. There is a dark side to the shadowrun universe... one of
gouls and nasty creatures. Creatures that have societies and whole
lives outside that of the humans/trolls/orks/etc... but still need to
live with the real world. Some of these are kind of Strange and need
some work... but all have potential. I have introduced two new
traits... regeneration and assention. Regeneration - once per turn a
runner with regeneration may fully heal themselves without turning.
Assention - Turn two vampire runners you contol. Trash the one with the
higher base attack value. Add a +2/+2 counter to the other. Also
General rule all vampire runners cannot hold gear/cyberware cards you
cannot use the special The Turning on a runner with cyberware.
