Sixth World Rookies

The setting for this game is in Seattle, in the year 2060 after many notable events in Shadowrun history happened (the assassination of Dunkelzahn, the Corp Wars, the Mob Wars, etc.). In this game, you are part of a team of rookie Shadowrunners, starting their first job. The fixer claims it'll be a milkrun, but whether it is or not remains to be seen.

The overall style and tone I'm aiming for is Brown Business Suit—you can reference what that means here.

This game is primarily intended to see how well Cities Without Number handles Shadowrun. It's almost a trope at this point, but, like many people, I love Shadowrun as a setting. Not as a game. I'm hoping this game can help scratch the itch.

If you're like me and want to play Shadowrun, but don't want to play Shadowrun, or if you like cyberpunk and fantasy themes and elements smashed together.

First, read the READ ME page. It has all the character creation guidelines as well the homebrew rules and extra content that will be used during the game.

Second, pop into the character creation discussion thread and say hi/let me know what kind of character concept you have (if any).

Third, create a new thread in the Applications section for your character. Be sure to let me know when you've finished.

Deadline is 10/01/23 and I won't close the ad down before then out of fairness to everyone. I'll be selecting 4-5 players after the deadline.

I'd like to keep a posting rate of 2-3 posts/week. Three posts is the ideal, but 2 is the bare minimum. Posts don't need to be high effort mini-novellas, being consistent and maintaining momentum is more important.

I will also be using Discord to communicate out-of-character. It has been a useful tool in other games I've ran and played in, and I am more likely to respond quickly to a message on Discord than anywhere else.
