Or no Spell Casting at all ("But I'm a mage ... that's what I *do* ...")
Another thing is if the runners are from Seatle ... they're used to the
pollution in that area ... so plop `em in an area with clean air and make
their lungs burn from a purer oxygen concentration than their used to ...
So how would all this work?
1) Runners get "geeked"
2) Runners wake up and find out that they've been put in suspended
animation for 100+ years or that they've been running in a simsense
simulation of 2050
3) Sometime later they are teleported (perhaps unwillingly) to another
time period
To really mess with the players, use the "this is your real life, the
other life was a simulation" option and then make up whole new character
sheets for the players ... The party's Elf mage suddenly wakes up to find
out she's now a Male Troll <EG>
Also note: if the players were brought up in some lab facility for the
sole purposeof running in this simulation, they would wake up without any
gear ... maybe x amounts of monetary unit as compensation pay ...
GM: "You are give 10 million <insert monetary units here>"
Players: "Alright! Let's grab some food and then go shopping!"
GM: "A hamburger cost 300 <monetary units> each ... how many will you
have?"
