Alrighty then. Due to popular demand (aka, people are actually still on
list) here we go!

This month's (July) Challenge is to write a piece of fiction that involves:

A semi retired team of shadowrunners (or a single one, if preferred)
A SURGEd pet (must be a pet that is found in homes in this day and age)
Reality TV (or what passes for it in the age of 206x)
A cow.
A box of paperclips.
An urban legend of your choosing from present day, adapted for the Shadowrun
universe of 2063.
A genetically modified rose that smells like vanilla.

The story may take place in the city of your choice, but it must occur in
the 'current' day of Shadowrun - 2063.

Have fun!

-Dvixen, Keeper of the Rabid Woodchucks.

Bleh... What is we don't know what that means? (Aside from that we're too
cheap to buy YOTC.)

I have to concure. I have no knowledge of this particular game rule. I have a bunch of
source books, but apparently not the right ones = (



Would it be semi acceptable to possibly omit that part of the challenge... perhaps? Maybe?

It's in Year of the Comet.

Just make your pet you use odd looking, as in a cat with scales, or a lizard
with dogs ears, and you're pretty much set. ;)

Thank you for the clarification. That shouldn't be too
hard to do at all = )
