It's not that simple. If it's only encounters, it can turn into random
monsters... If this can arise, I think it could be interesting to give
simple plots which can become bigger or keep small.
A good exemple could be like this :
* The runners see a corp guy bleeding in a dark alley. He has an attache
case with him.
** Short plot : The poor guy only got shot while he was coming home. He
barely escaped the gangers but will die here if the runners don't do
anything. If they save him, he can reward them with 500 Y (that's all he has).
** Long plot : The man is a corporate employee who tried to escape his
corp. To make his life easier, he took some stuff with him. After having
arranged an extraction with an fixer. This one tried to bouble cross him.
He barely escaped but was deadly hit. An equip of runners is on his trail
as well as a corp strike/recovery team. The stuff is hot but not sufficient
enough for the corp to send expert runners after him (something like 30,000
Y worth).
