Their bigger and nastier than a Polar Bear. Out of respect for
international copywrite laws please, buy the books. Or give me/us a
really good reason to email the stats to you.

Yes, but only by the really serious Megacorps and only for special
labs/instalations

There isn't a piasma totem. That doesn't mean you can't make one though.

<BEG> I already know ShadowRN's deepest secret.

And even then only for those out in the wilderness somewhere. Nobody uses
piasmae to guard their HQ in downtown Seattle, to the best of my
knowledge.

But you'd need to buy Paranormal Animals of North America, in order to
find out what the animal is like.

I think I know which one that is... ;)

Okay: Enhanced Physical Attributes (Strength or Quickness, once per
day each, for [Essence x 2]d6 turns), Enhanced Reactions, Enhanced
Senses (Thermographic Vision, Wide-Band Hearing).

FWIW, you should really buy the Paranormal Animals of North America
and the Paranormal Animals of Europe. They're both excellent source
books if your at all interested in critters (which it sounds like you
are). If you celebrate Christmas you've got an opportunity coming up
to get them for free :)

Nope. That's pretty common knowledge (right up there with Don't Deal
with a Dragon). <BEG>

David is talking about ShadowRN's deepest secret, you're talking about
Shadowrun (notice the U in the word) survival knowledge... Not quite the
same thing, if you ask me.

Bzzzt, nope. There's an even deeper, darker secret. And only us
Trolls know what it is ;)

Dang, that's more power/responsibility that *I'd* want! Ranks right up
there with the True Name of that "MC23 Daemon."

Yow!

Do you know how hard it is to find these books? I've been trying to find
these for a loooong time, and still haven't been successful. Also, the NAN
Guides are dadgummed scarce, as well. Several of the out-of-print books will
take a long time to hunt down and snatch.

Anyway, that's just my two nuyen.
