Dude... my OTAKU has a big six-pack of whoop-ass for all y'all. Or he
would if I hadn't been opressed by the man! (after seeing how high my
character's unarmed combat skill was, the street sammies and physads
whined because I was a 12 year old decker, and they were 20 year old
bruisers... They ruled that you couldn't have a skill, even if it's a
conectration or specilization, more than 2.5 times the relevant attribute on
the skill web... and when your racial max is 3 for Str, Quik, and Body...
that sucks. I ultimately think it's because my character is Japanese and
my GM is Jewish... ;))
I suppose my character has an indirect way of dealing with threats. He
doesn't attack them. He finds out who hates you, finds out where you
live, and sends a wee bit of email off to the interested parties.... I
actually did that to a fellow party member who harrassed other players
both in-character and out of character... I believe it was after, for no
reason at all, our Cat shaman returned to find several hundred rather
smelly rodents in a writhing mass across his apartment's floor. The
shaman's pet cat was too scared to even come down from it's perch.
Note to our GM: I'm informing Renraku of Dreadful's home address,
frequent haunts, etc.
It would have been cool if the street sammie had lived long enough for
retribution to come to its fullness...
