About the adventure
Join an ongoing weekly campaign, set in the early days of the Shadowrun setting - where magic has returned to the world, bringing dragons to the boardroom, orks to the slums, and a whole new levelof intrigue and danger to the cybernetic future. Low magic, high tech, low life. You'll play a 'Shadowrunner', an urban mercenary and troubleshooter, trying to eke out a living while avoiding the scrutiny of the big corporations. You never know what kind of work you'll get offered next. Rob a corporate data-bank? Solve a murder? Play bodyguard to the latest sim-sense starlet? Or participate in a full on tactical assault on a hardened facility? The higher the risk, the bigger the reward. Watch your back, shoot straight, conserve ammo, and never, ever, cut a deal with a dragon. About the game system: We'll be playing a modified version of Shadowrun 5th Edition, using official adventures from 1st, 2nd, and 3rd edition, adapted for the system.

Creating your character
During Session 0, I'll guide you through the character creation process. The rules are complex, but don't worry. I'll make sure you leave character creation with something fun! Any degree of familiarity with the Shadowrun setting is nice, but not required. More importantly, come with an idea of what might be fun for you to play!
This is one of several groups running concurrently in a shared Shadowrun universe. Some content may be repeated within groups. Other content will be unique to either A Group (Sundays) or B Group (Thursdays). Each Run may take more than one session to complete. Initial Campaign Outline --- Session 0: Character creation. Run 1: DNA/DOA - loosely based on FASA 7301 Run 1: New Year, New World (A Side) - original adventure. Run 2: Queen Euphoria - loosely based on FASA 7304 More runs will be added based on players choices.

What Robert brings to the table
Character creation will be handled in Session 0. We'll be using FoundryVTT to track character stats, no account is required. We'll use Discord for communication, a free account is required. This is an ongoing weekly game, with a revolving cast of characters. Characters and plots are tracked on a dedicated wiki page. We'll be playing a lot of modules from the early days of the Shadowrun system, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Edition. So be prepared to see the 2050s as envisioned in the 1980s and 90s!
