]Actually, it would be a fourth type. In an issue of White Wolf, there was an
]article called "Magic Over Bourbon Street" which gave rules for Voodoo and
]Hougan characters for Shadowrun.
I think we discussed this several months ago. I believe the concensus (if
there can ever be one on THIS list) was that it was WAY overbalanced. Which
might explain why they (FASA) didn't publish it (at least that was the
impression I got was). The backround was decent, the module looked average,
but the Voodoo was gross.

The character I'm playing is a voodoo-priest from New Orleans. Trouble is:
I got near to none information on voodoo and I don't have access to back
issues of WW.
I tried to find some books and had to realize, that when you're able to get
a title of an interesting book of this topic it is nearly 50 years old and
therefor hard to come by.

so please, if someone got material on voodoo, mail it to me.
Internet-adress is: struck@******.uni-bonn.de

Check out issue One of SJG's Pyramid mag. I remember being sent the

Good mag, Pyramid...

Is there anything available about voodoo in SRII? I know there's something like
zombies in Shadowlore, but that's not really it.

If you have mosaic or a similar www browser, you can check the url:

http://www.oat.ts.astro.it/marcucci/sr2/index.html

There you can find the shadowrun conversion from Chill.

To quote Brian Angliss (the author):

contains some of the ideas from the Voodoo system published in White Wolf
magazine, like the loa. Enjoy. ]<<<<

More, I wager. I can't remember anything like that in the issues I have,
which begin from the last bi-monthly.

I can put the exact issue numbers and months up in the next day or two,
depending on when I get my stuff from home via UPS.
