this could be a fun concept for a character to see played out. I've designed
this physical adept character for my cousin who just started playing
Shadowrun for the first time. She's a she, so natch I made the char a she
and thought it would be interesting to invent a new skill and kind of
fighting that I'd never seen or heard of before and that's basically a kind
of rollerblading kickboxer. I know it sounds corny and almost even a little
too anime, but I think that's what's going to make it so fun to watch
evolve. Plus it would make for some pretty interesting visuals. Now here's
what I had in mind for the stats for rollerblades since there technically
are none in existence (at least not that I'm aware)...:
WEAPON CONCEAL REACH DAMAGE COST S.I.
Rollerblades 9* 1 (Str +1) Stun 30¥
.5
*Really not sure on the concealability, because what are you trying to
conceal? And for the skill to use them I just made up the skill
"rollerblading". I figured for actual fighting with them I would have her
roll twice. One roll for 'blading, and the other for unarmed combat if the
first roll succeeded. Or do you think just the first roll would be
sufficient for both as technically you're just trying to trick off
somebody's face (or various other body parts)?
Okay, this is a brand new idea for me but I think I've got it set up pretty
fair. What needs tweaking? Any ideas/constructive criticisms? Yes, I already
know it's cornier than a Kansas lump of drek, but beyond the corn?
Just looking for YOUR .02¥
