Is there anyone who got ED willing to scan in any portions relevant to
Shadowrun? I hear that there are bits of information about Harlequin and
Ehran in it for example, and I'd like to see them. I don't play much
fantasy any more, and wouldn't be interested in a class/level based system
even if I did (No flames please - this is just my personal preference) so I
don't particularly want to shell out the money to buy ED.

While I don't have a scanner and couldn't meet your request even if the
info was there, the said info isn't. Most info on the SR/ED connection is
found in SR products. Remember, only the rulebook for ED has been
released. How much SR world info was in the SR rulebook? Nada, except for
some info on the Seattle area. No SR characters are mentioned in ED,
although the dragon Icewing has a similar personality with that of
Dunzelkhan. Also, the blood queen is mentioned. She was referred to by
Harlequin in Tir Tairngire. That last book, as well as the Dowd short
story "Voices from the Past", is where most of this comes from.
There will be a boxed set coming out soon that details Barsaive, the
region (Ukraine) where ED takes place. Maybe that set will have more of
want you want, Joe.
