Ok this is mainly for the evilman himself, Tinner.
But I thing its interresting for all so it goes to the list.

Yes I did :-)
Ohmm, yes I`m a shapeshifter now.

Ok lets go..

Barbie was once a norm. In her childhood
she had an unpleasant encounter with a shapeshifter
during this she was near mortal wounded and the shapeshifter
killed. She lays in the blood for some hours and get contamineted
with it.(Ok not possible by the rules, but cool)
After a long healing phase she seems to be ok.
She developed at this time an hatred against elven, mainly
because the accident was coused by elven and her family got
killed during it.
Several years passed.
Than came our last campaign in which we was drawn into a struggle
between two near megacons and finaly put one of them out of biz.
Sadly the where not pleased with it and hired some merc force
to finalise us.
However me survied the first attempt to kill us. Shortly thereafter
we where able to make a deal with the merc`s.
Litteraly we sold us to them.
All of us changed their apperance and so, but Barbie decieded this
was not enough and went for genetic reconstruction to an elf.
(see shadowtech page 69 for the basic idea)
Because it was widly known that she hates them.
This event had triggered a magical potential in her and had
callen the shapeshifter thing to becomme some noticiable thing.
Then our new campaign started and in the beginning she
strangly begin to feel some love for an elf.(she doesn`t understand
why it just happend)
After a while she was pregnant from him and our master decided to take a bit
of the story from Preying for Keeps. Perfect timing frome the bastard!!
So she was captured and imprisoned for nearly six months.
During this time the experimented with her after they had notieced the
strange biological makeup. Somehow they managed to activate the shapeshifter
in her. Turning slowly and painfull in a new liveform.
To turture me even further we ran the both storylines at the same time
on my part we just changed the room and went back afterwards to the
others.So in the end the group finaly safed me, but the brain behind this
escaped.
The next year in game time we where on the hunt for the person responsible.
During this time I became a full shapeshifter.
She tries to hide this as best as she can, but she had no real control over
it.
Mainly in some very emotional situations it was very hard to keep the
humanform
and not just freakout.After a while her soon-to-be-husband noticed some
strange
behavior in her and he consulted a magician to take a closer look at her.
So it came out, and he was not pleased with it by every means.
Finaly we found the sick bastard and Barbie freaked out and killed him
in animalform, tearing him to pieces and ate much of him to make sure
he is realy dead.This had happend one year back in gametime and today she
struggles still with her new live, but had did a fairly goodjob to
keep her secret.

--FINE--

for now, but we will play in about one hour and the master had sliped
that its time for another turturing :-(

Hope you understand all of my rambling.

Well, I played a shape shifter (Tiger) and was a former Yak gang member,
I killed a sammie that had been sent to kill the party and when KE security
was on the way (something about grenades, automatic weapons fire, fireballs
and fire alarms or some such) I decided to get rid of the evidence, so I
shifted and chowed down. Needless to say, the rest of the party had already
got out of there. I fled shortly there after, but not before I put all of
the un-tasty and hard parts down the garbage shute and set it for
incinerate!

Sick, who me? I was just playing in character :) Ask anyone here, ask Chuck
Stevens, he'll tell ya I'm actually a real pussycat.

Sure you did. My only hope is that no other GM from my
group will showup on this list, or I will end with the same
situation Bull is in. You know the survay about turturing Bull.

Former?, all traitors will die ! :]
You are lucky, eating a whole person will take a while and I belive
not even a Tiger is able to eat him complettly. Typical GM toughts
"hey cool idea, let him do that."
Metall, how un-tasty it is. They don`t even smell human, brrrrr

Sick, no only using the characters abilities and world-view to reach your
goal.

Reflexes and Skillwires were awesome Dental Floss. 8=}

Silly kitty! All those "hard to chew" parts could probably have earned you a
little bonus on the shadow markets, especially limbs and wires.
