I just had a good brainstorm for a new EDGE. (Note: It may only be used if
you are using the optional point-based charater creation rules)
Wealthy:( a +6 Edge)
This edge gives the charater 100,000Y/Build Point during charater
creation. The minimum ammount of points spent on resources is 20. This
charater MUST spend 95% of this cash buying equiment/vehicles/cyberware(Max
of ALPHA implants)/etc. the remaining 5% or less MAY be kept by the
charater to start the adventure. This charater must pre-purchase at least
1 year of High Lifestyle or better to start. NOTE: The FLAW of spoiled must
be given to this charater.
Spoiled: ( a -3 Flaw)
This charater must spend at least 8 hours every day in High lifestyle
conditions or better or he/she is grumpy (+2 to all social TN, charisma TN)
until they again are in high lifestyle. Also this charater hates being in
"Squatter" locations (Filthy,etc.), and if put there will be on edge (+1 to
all TN). This charater insists on wearing fine clothes when able, and
spends 20% of his/her monthly income on "Nic-nacks" (i.e. jewlry, simtapes,
music, etc. but NOT weapons or equipment!)
Josh: Could be too powerful, I mean if they spend 40 build points they have
4 million Nuyen, but when the game starts they would only have 200,000Y in
cash (5%). (And I would rule they don't get the 3D6x1,000Y to start). I
just have an image of the wealthy magician, with his 5,000Y suit, trying to
find a clean place to sit in his troll friend's apartment. (imagine beer,
chips, and soycaf spilled everwhere <grin>).
