Bulldrekkers as Shadowrunners?

Post by Ampere »

Sitting here on the graveyard shift, I had a strange thought. What if Bulldrekkers wer actually Shadowrunners? Sitting on the #bulldrek channel watching shit go by thinking of Shadowland, I wondered, would Adam be some uber-decker guy? Would Bishop be a Troll Sammy?

What do you think?

What would you be? What would your friends be?

How do you visualize yourself in the SR universe?
Why?

I'd be an Ork, more than likely. If Awakened, then I'd be a Coyote shaman or a Earth Elementalist. If not Awakened, I'd probably be a non-cybered skillboy of some inclination or another.

And thus Moto would have to be the 'date' for his ally spirit.

It should, it goes all the way back to the "Is it okay for me to date my Ally Spirit" thread.

Hmm, probably an infrastructure maintenance decker convinced there's a way to do magic in the Matrix if you tweak it enough :)

Not-so-hapless bystander #1, then?

I'd probably be a failed corp. drone. Likely either a dead one or one not doing so well...
complete. dirty. whore.

Corporate Drones - God I would love to play on the other side of the physical and magical defenses, corporate politics in the Sixth World could be a hoot.

Assuming I wasn't born SINless, I'd most likely be a corp mage or corp decker, realistically.

Now, if we based it on what we'd like to be, then I'd probably still be a mage or decker (depending on if I were born with magical ability or not), just not for the corps. ;)

broke-ass college student. hell, i probably would turn to shadowrunning to try to make cash. i just spent about a month off the internet (don't know if anyone noticed) because i couldn't really spare the twenty bucks for service. which made me very happy when earthlink came along and offered me 45 days free...

so yeah, gutter bum or college student. near enough to each other anyway as to make no nevermind...

If today was shadowrun, I'd be a corp security guard. Hopefully, I'd never get shot at (even though it is shadowrun). :D

Moto: Let's extract pistons and try to sell her contract to Shiawase. That should get us big bucks.

Anybody: That's the stupidest idea you've had all day, it only works if Shiawase comes to us ASKING for us to extract her.

Moto: Just because it's a stupid idea doesn't mean it won't work.

Somebody else: That would explain the Jello elemental last week... didn't it rob another bank last night?

I want a city elemental that just happens to be Grimmace. I want the giant grape gumdrop to land on an extraction team and do horrific things to them, with a deep fryer.
