*'k then , here it goes...And if the drek hits the fan I will blame
Gurth ;-) (Just joking chum!)*

Chummers of the world Unite!
Greetings to all 'runners out there. I will be putting together a
series of mini adventures set in the Cyberpunk version of near-future
Seattle. They will be tightly focused, sometimes interconnecting
stories that will form up the backdrop of a greater campaign. The
scope is small and is set to enlarge with the game. If all goes well
and depending on the quantity and quality of gamers it will attract we
might get ourselves a nice little campaign out of it.But first things
first:
I am an experienced DM/GM/Storyteller (you name it - I have done
something like it) who spans various formats of games and mediums of
delivery. I thoroughly enjoy roleplaying and thus have created my own
personal style of gaming over the web. I try to give emphasis to the
story depth and setting backdrops so as to make the game come as alive
as possible to my players. I care little for dice rolling and rules
lawyering. I do care much more about my players enjoying the game
though so I always try to mold my style around what the players seem
to enjoy most.
What I am offering is a number of mini stories (currently 3 - prolly
more on the way) with a clear and definite end to them so as the
players can get a feeling of accomplishment. I am offering a relaxed
format of gaming that neither requires multiple emails per day nor
advances with a rate of a quadriplegic turtle. The stories' concepts
themselves will range and thus I am hoping to have something for
everybody's different "likes" on Shadowrun. All stories will share the
Cyberpunk feeling though, the underground professionalism (or in most
cases lack thereof) of Shadowrunning, and the John Woo excitement of
its action scenes.
What I am looking for is a big group of people of varied qualities. I
will be sorting them out into groups I feel better suited to each
other and to each little story. So different types of characters and
players will be required. I need dedicated people, with at least
moderate storytelling skill and a good spell checker. I don't care if
you used to release novels for FASA but I do care if you send moves
along the lines of "The orc attack the human with Katana". I am not
requiring familiarity with the Shadowrun setting and rules system. I
am requiring though that as soon as you dedicate yourself to the game
you start searching the huge fountain of knowledge that the internet
provides as I will not have time to slowly ease you into it (I will
probably drop a couple of links to you and set you off into the
unknown to find out about Shadowrun). If you don't know what Cyberpunk
is - well you probably need not reply...And what the drek are you
doing reading this motha of a message??? Or in this list for that
matter!!!!????
So if this picks your interest email me for more info on the game and
the character creation phase : netlich@*******.com or here at
sp@*****.gr (just don't hit reply to this list!)
