I have a few players here3 who are BIG Storyteller fans (one of them even
wrote a Fantasy setting for the game system. Now this same group also
plays in my SR game, and they have been asking me if there is a way to
integrate the Vamps, Werewolves, Mages, etc from ST into Shadowrun?

Now for the question for all of you...

Has anyone tried this? Has anyone tried to put the Vampire
rules(clans, powers, etc) or Lupine rules(tribes, etc) into Shadowrun?

Or, on a related question, has anyone tried bringing shadowrun
stuff(c-ware, b-ware, weps, etc) into ST?

Any info you can give me would be appreciated.

Don't gag, but it seems as if White Wolf is attempting just such a thing.
Now, I don't know if this is legit or if WW is just playing quick and dirty
with names, but when you mention people like Daniel Howling Coyote by name....

We have yet to try it, but there is an issue of White Wolf
magazine(different publication, related company) that ran a special on
what was called "The World of Future Darkness". It gave SR
cyberware and rules on how to play it. They are for Vampire at the
moment, but WW is supposed to print supplements in future issues
to account for Werewolf and Mage.


Many people fear Death, saying it is the bitter end.
I say Death is just lonely, crying out for a friend.

This will help!
Which issue was it(I have access to almost all of them), if you don't
have an exact #, even a rough estimate of when it was published would be
very helpful.

Aslo, Is this a good Mag to get for SR stuff? I have been looking for
somthing for a while now, but I want to get somthing that covers more
than one game system.

I will get the exact number by tomarrow or Sat. And yes, I find it an
excellent mag for SR. I recieved an OK begginer run(This time, it has
ally spirits), the Voodoun magic system and architypes, and plenty of
other architypes. I do not have many of them, but if it has SR or Mage
in it, I try to buy it.

One GM I knew tried to integrate the two rules. I don't know much about
Vampire, but I did learn that exploding children do a lot of damage to us.

It din't really work too well.
