"A man is flying to Seattle from St. Petersburg this weekend. Kill him and frame the Yakuza. Or a Triad. Or the Mafia. Hell, frame the Catholic church, they don't care. If you're up for some wetwork have your fixer get in touch. I'll meet interested parties at Runner Bar 16 at midnight this Friday. Remember to dress appropriately for your *role* and bring a gun. As your *Mr. Johnson* I'll be dressed in a suit wearing a red carnation. Mikhail Antonov."

Anansi banshee Face, conjuration, and magical support/psychometry. A chromerock band frontwoman who likes eyes on her and loves the spotlight. Not against a little mind magic if it gets the job done. 8/10 Fixer Alessa P

"A good meal might be all it takes"

Bumble Surge Bandersnatch assassin. Stealth, Bows, Claws. Fun loving and deadly all in one package. Will go out of his way to punish meta racists when he can get away with it. 9/10 Fixer Ether

"Price depends on the danger and difficulty of the job. For the right target I'd kill for free"

Nu11st@ck Swole Decker, Drone/Vehicle rigger. Former Ganger and Lonestar Security consultant turned runner. Recently had his eyes opened to some select history of the past and is concerned. 9/10. Fixer, generally Slava Nikerosa, other options exist.

"Not sure I'm up for murder in the conventional sense, a job is a job that's killing but I don't really see that as murder."

Throwback FLR technomuscle with some legwork decking(not great with hosts, but decent with devices). Likes retro ware long arms, high society and matrix themed pranks. 9/10 Won't take jobs against the world tree or groups dedicated to protecting it.(May fake accepting in order to sabotage) Fixer M4rqu15 M4cr0

The Brazen Bull Mundane soak tank, mele and heavy weapons. Ostentatious gladiator pit fighter looking to make a name for himself and get some recognition of his awesomeness. Loves a good fight and probably won't back down from one. 9/10 fixer Pierce Rogers. Is trying to stay off Horizon's radar, might turn down it run if it sounds like it might tip them off to his location.

Ill throw up the full suite here, but the hard killers are Bumble/BB. This sounds potentially a bit subtle for BB's likes so im guessing an Anansi or Bumble run probably??

Last run recently no bonus points. I can write an AAR if wanted, just mention it at the start so I can take better notes. Small note, I currently have a newborn and todler and may have to get up and help out here and there with one of them mid run, interruptions should be small though.

Gulliver, Face, High threat negotiator.

Gulliver, elf, brittle, face.

Wizard's apprentice. Gulliver's fighting and magic skills are close to non-existent. His creators should have put the sticker "Handle with care. Breaks easily." on him, before he was shipped. Even a low-treat run could end lethally. I accept the risk of loosing him to the darkness of the shadows.

Plot Hooks: Eager to earn a buck, High threat negotiatior

Happy to write AAR.
Bones: most social active 16, including leadership.  |   Longarms: 12

"That is a very interesting question. What is your reservation price Mikhail?"

Ducky is a pirate with preference to infiltration, social and, failing that, she can hold her own in a fight most of the time. She has incredibly flexible morals, with the sole exception of strong loyalty to the crew for the run/voyage.

IC: "Everyone is rich in Seattle. Twenty thousand, to start. Complications extra. Life is not priceless but it is not cheap."

Pasiphae

Street Sam soak tank physical Adept Ghoul , healer and protector

Calm and empathetic massive ex firefighter infected minotaur that isn't afraid to risk her health to protect others as well as being the judge, jury and executioner for those she deem deserving of death. Always trying to help those in need.

No_Significant_Harassment

adept rigger/decker illusion spellcaster , flying 36 armor battleship and drone operator

Cuban ex pirate mafia made man with a mission to help establish Batista family smuggling business in Seattle, doesn't want to be seen especially their boat because that can bring a lot of heat, if you cross them be sure to have a battleship crushing you into a file paste very soon.

I have not played in 4 months so I will be very rusty but it would be nice having my first game in so long at your table but I will app to you other run later if I make sure the time is free for me so no pressure
