Well... *digs through SR books* there's stuff about what it's really like
to be a magician, a chapter called Magic In The Shadows, there's psionics
(which is basically WYTIWYG-based normal magic), religion, talk about
physical adepts and their powers, voudoun backgrounds and rules (hinted at
in Cybertech, BTW :), rules expansions for magic in most of its aspects,
paranormal animal totems (anyone want to be a Wendigo shaman? :), new
physad powers, totem design guidelines (like we needed those, but
anyway...) and some more stuff.

By the way speaking of Awakenings, one of my local hobby shops stated
that the release of the source book was being pushed back to the
beginning of January, can anyone confirm or deny this?

I spoke with Mike Mulvihill today and he said that Awakenings shipped this
week and will be a December release, so I'd say the rumor is just that.

FASAMike@***.com said it should be out sometime soon, possibly a couple
of days.

Thanks, I will have to check out some of the other shops in the area and
see if they will be getting it in the next couple of weeks.

I am given to understand this has landed in Britain and is on its way
from the distributers. It is expected in here either this afternoon
or tommorrow.

I somehow think we can consider it out!
