About the adventure

Just another job, they say. But another job, can be The Job. We live in Chicago, a city with opportunities. Both for rising and to die in pain. But for your luck, I’m here to help you rise. Mr Johnson sent me a message and I’m messaging you, Chummer. So don’t disappoint us and go make some nuyens for you. Get some others to help you, because I’m sending you something big… Not big, something HUGE… Prepare your guns, magic and anything else needed!!! For this campaign, any level of knowledge about the system is allowed. For those willing to learn, for those willing to remember the old days. Beginners FRIENDLY!!! LGBTQIA+ FRIENDLY!!!

About me

As you enter the room, you can see a table with some miniature on it. At the other side of the table, you a shield that you can't identify if it's protecting someone or from someone. "Greetings" - he says - "Welcome to the table. Have a seat, your character and your dices. The ones around you are your friends for the story we are going to tell. Yes, I said WE, because indeed, it's your story. I'm just that voice that comes from nowhere sometimes to throw some Magic, Interrogative and Provocative words for you. Our story begins......" Respect is something that counts a lot for me, so everyone is welcome, since everyone is respected. New players that do not know nothing about the system, LGBTQIA+ community how wishes a safer place to play, neurodivergent, disabled and minorities are welcome and can expect to have their space protected within the roleplay.
