Runners,

Thanks for the help with the PA information. I also enjoyed the rants
upon my vocal commentary on cybered magically actives.

Brainstorm with me folks... I am one of three co-gamemasters for a
Shadowrun game. All PC's are unawakened, but will eventually, (in a long
time) awaken. A number of them have preselected totems, aspects, Gods, etc.,
that will be their patrons. Ex. my character is affiliated with the Winter
Wolf of Russia and given by CJ the attentions of Odin. As each character
grows closer to awakening their "totem" begins to more and more hand out
advice, complain, babble incessantly, etc. Not all of the totems align them
selves with the personalities of the PC they are attached to and thus can be
argumentative, deceptive, etc.
I already have some ideas on how to deal with Cowboy's friendly
neighborhood spirit, but I am looking for more ideas. Cowboy is associated
with The Adversary/Loki. Cowboy is 17. He is human, 6'10" (large
advantage), Caucasian, dirty blond, has Venus blessing, takes in money for
the gang via truck jacking, is love with a young woman from the countryside,
hobbies: women, fighting, drinking, he looks after his own people very well.
The game is set in Berlin and as per the Germany book it is an anarchist
city. He is a lieutenant of a gang. Any and all assistance will be
appreciated.

CJ PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS LINE OF POSTS PLEASE! THANKS.

May Your Blood Burn with the Fires of (Hel)

Thanks,
Tinne

What are you looking for more specifically? I don't get it at all.

I am looking for suggestions as how to better pursue the presentation of
the spirit's personality that he has attached to him. As it is the
adversary/Loki cosmic personality or spirit I need ideas for really
convoluted plots and ways to mess with cowboy. I need ideas for types of
things he might give him a hard time on; comments the spirit would make etc.

You look like (Hel)
