|Coming up...30 lines 'o' Spoilers. If you're not supposed to be looking
|at Horror/Enemy type stuff, or if you're involved in the module
|Harlequin's Back, Move Along, Move Along.!!!
|!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!End Spoilers...

I think you meant 30 exclamation marks of spoiler space.
Not lines. Which made it useless.
I think you might need to have a look at your mailer configuration.

anyway.... If there's something for me to add....
























| I'd say critters like Corpselights and Nomads COULD be considered
|precursers to 'true' Horrors, but they'd be EXTREMELY low level ones.

It's always the weak ones that come through first....

| It's been hinted in the Paranormal Animals of Europe, that the
|Wraith may be a harbinger of these nasty litle buggers as well.

Thought so....

| BUT, keep in mind, the two times (to my knowledge) that actual
|stats for THE ENEMY have been displayed, these guys were downright
|TERRIFYING!!! And I'm a GM who LOVES to torment and test his players!

Well of COURSE they were. They were full blown horrors.
Even weaker horrors of Earthdawn'd be very nasty in shadowrun....

| I ran HARLEQUIN'S BACK for my group, and their first encounter
|almost left them TOTALLY devestated! [All except for my resident
|powergamer, who seems to up the stats on his character everytime I look
|away!

You really should copy his sheet and keep that copy, and compate it every
game session then. If he cheats, the only thing he does is spoil it for
everyone else....

He actually matched them blow for blow, that is until I took his
|'Munchie Armor and Weapons and Cyber and Magic' down a peg. Note to
|GM's, it's tough during a campaign to keep track of everything a player
|is up to, and I rely on a fair degree of honesty when they state their
|intentions, but keep an eye on your powergamers, or they'll come back
|and bite you on the butt!].

BUT... If you suspect them of cheating, take the appropriate steps.
