IC Teaser:

Hideo sat in the darkness of his office, pulling up the security footage from his husband’s condo into his AR for the fourth time in a row. Tears streamed down his eyes as he watched a beautiful stranger make their way up through the stairwell and into the home he purchased for the man he loved. Unable to get through the footage a final time he held out a finger and called out in japanese for his comlink to stop the feed.

With shaking hands he reached into his desk and produced the burner link his superior had provided him with for obtaining shadow contract work, hurriedly selecting the first data-haven on the list, and clenching his pained stomach as he waited for it to finish connecting. When the time came to fill out the nature of the contract his finger hovered over the option for wetwork for a terrible moment before selecting the option beneath it in the alphabetical list. Unable to keep himself from sobbing any further he ordered his agent to fill out the rest of the post with a default template and posted it immediately.

Job: Team Required

Tags: [Whitemail] [Vetted Johnson] [Credstick Payment]

It has come to the attention of my employers that a delicate situation requiring professionals capable of preventing a ranking official from losing face has arisen. Interested parties to inquire within.

Hideo buried his face as the job post went through and responses from fixers and runners began to fill this AR terminal. Minimizing the display he turned to the shelf behind his desk, managing only through an act of willpower to keep his hand from reaching for the Wakasashi sitting in his Daishu, instead retrieved the bottle of sake gifted to him by a superior the night he oversaw the execution of his predecessor.

As more applications continued to flow and the rice wine settled in his stomach Hideo closed his work comlink and let it run. Instead turning back on his personal device, and opened up his personal sim sense library. Scanning through the records of his company-mandated sim-rig until he found the record for San Fransico, June 14 2072 and hit the launch button.

A moment later he was transported away to the roof of his shitty rundown college apartment, lying on a blanket, his head resting in the lap of the man he would propose exactly a year later. Gazing up at Aio through his younger eyes, watching in admiration as the love of his life smiled at the sight of a parade in their honor filling the streets.

What’s with the Title?

Hey siblings and strangers. This year's QueersPunk run series is the second annual installment in my ongoing anthology of LGBTQ+ runs that I try to run around this time of year starting around the same time as Pride pittering out when I run out of prepared content.(Probably mid-early july) The details are as follows:

• The point of these stories isn’t to tell a particular message or teach a lesson about queer identiy. Nor are they meant to exist as an example of tokenistic `visibility”, or genuine representation, we’re lucky enough to live in an era of the runnerhub where these kinds of themes are readily available across many character’s and tables.

• The primary purpose of these runs is to celebrate roleplaying as a queer storytelling tradition, to the end many of these stories draw their core inspiration from my own first and second hand queer experinces.

• The secondary goal of these run is to pay homage stylistically to queer culture, especially LGBTQ+ media and history. As such the subtitle of each run pays homage to a part of queer culture that I personally recommend my peers to look into.

• On the topic the topic of the use of the word “Queer”, this word is a reappropriated slur and academic term here used to refer to individuals who identify as LGBTQ+, their culture, and art.

• Dear Straight-Cis guys, please read this before messaging me asking if you can apply. Yes, you are allowed to apply to this run and stand a chance to get picked. These runs are written with a queer audience in mind, but my point is to share my passion for this topic with as many people as possible and that includes you. The only reason not to apply is if you’re uncomfortable with queerness in general, in which case you can probably do both of us a favor and avoid applying to my table every month of the year. (Also I’m not really looking to gatekeep or make assumptions here)

Disclaimer: As always, runs often include violent or disturbing content as well as adult themes. As such I ask that those under the age of 18 or who are adverse to transgressive or exploitative storytelling to refrain from applying.

If you have any questions about this run or my post, please contact me via discord @Clara#8787

Hello Shadowrunners, I have an extraction job that needs to be completed. For those I choose for this job, consider this a interview of your talents, your ability to follow orders and business etiquette.

The leather duster wreathing this old cowboy's body is as weathered and dusty as his wrinkled old face; it peers out from below the brim of an equally worn hat as it slaps a 'WANTED' poster on top of the 'MAGICAL BULLDREK' board, fading back into an endless desert as it exits the host.

<<One of my ranch hands has gone missing, and I want him yanked out of whatever nether-hole he got dragged in to. Boy's a damn fine sort, just needs to get his head screwed on straight.>>

<<Hungry Honcho>>

OOC:

This run will involve adventuring to a metaplane. Magically-active players will be selected first, with certain physical/psychological operators selected on a preference after that.

All you need to leave are just the character names and roles. Please leave your discord handle if it is different.I don’t worry too much about how frequently people play or how long since last run, gmp, etc. - I will usually take at least 1 new player + 2 players with less than 5 runs unless threat levels/team needs dictate less or more.

[Disclaimer] Consequences exist in all runs, and criminal activity carries the potential to be lethal for all participants. Shadowrun is a dark setting in a world with a complex moral structure, but please keep me aware of your personal tolerance for violence, sexuality and filth.

[Disclaimer 2] I assume your character has certain core ‘criminal competencies,’ including a loose knowledge of the laws they are about to be breaking, and certain world physics without codified systems attached, and I will check with you before you cross these thresholds if players appear unaware or about to take an action against your better judgement of the situation. This is not common sense, and common sense is not applicable in many of these situations, though your knowledge skills may apply.

[Disclaimer 3] Apprehension by law enforcement, border patrol, Military, corporate authorities, radical groups, syndicates, or other sufficiently-equipped remonstrating parties may have additional consequences to players depending on the circumstances around arrest, casualties/crimes committed, and what characters may be in possession of at time of detention. Job failure in a remote location may have further-reaching consequences than failure within Seattle.

Please consider a small donation with your purchase today to your local Knight-Errant Widows & Orphans fund. Tickets to your next Lone Star Security Officer’s Ball are also available from your local Safeway-Mixteca & participating Kroger-Raley’s franchises, and patrol officers may also have tickets! {{PLEASE DO NOT ACCOST OFFICERS DURING SECURITY PROCEDURES}} Your safety is our service!

When looked at the poster reads:

The RunnerHub being a huge community effort has put forth these contacts to help accommodate our players. Some exist to smooth mechanics over, others exist to promote character growth in our environment. Still others are just cool ideas.

• All hub contacts have a "cost" associated with them. This cost comes in the form of either 1 karma or 2,000 nuyen per point.

• Some hub contacts have "purchase rules", these are only available if you pay the "cost" of the contact.

• The hub contacts can also be taken in character generation as normal. Using their Connection and Loyalty ratings. However doing it this way will not allow you the chance to use any of their "purchase rules".

• Contacts grabbed in chargen follow all normal rules. As such if one has connection+loyalty higher than 7 they are not legal in chargen.

To pickup a contact

• Post either in the contacts individual thread, or if it is archived on this thread.

• You may either do it during downtime, or at the start/end of a run.

• With gm discretion you may pick them up during a run.

If you have any questions please toss them this way and we will attempt to get back you as soon as possible

GMS!

If you are interested in using one of these contacts as the starting point for a run please send a quick message over to the contact modmail and we can talk about some details.

Benefits for using a hub contact

• each player(including the gm) gets the chance to purchase the contact at a -2 cost

gms have their choice of character to apply this to

• If a character already has said contact, they instead get +1 Loyalty with that contact.

Note, in cases where the loyalty attribute is used for something else a different reward may be offered.

Name: Dr. James Thornton. MD/Psychiatrist, Psy.D. (college unverified)

Cost: 5

C/L: 3/2

Archetype: Psychiatrist/professional

Description:

Dr. Thornton (as he prefers to be called) is a short human with a full head of hair and a bushy goatee. Those who are feeling irritated at him often comment that he looks like Freud, but they only say that because of the tweed jacket and shaped goatee. Dr. Thornton tends to smell of pipe tobacco and freshly-cut grass, and often has an open ARO before him for handwritten notes. His office is crowded with actual books and a cracked leather couch, but he doesn't often see outside patients. His warm smile and friendly blue eyes hide a slightly shady soul, and disguise the shark swimming beneath the surface, ready to drain every last nuyen from some poor demented patient.

Affiliations: Dr. Gued, Pine Valley Private Care Clinic

Likes: court dates as character witnesses for legal insanity, collecting paychecks from lawyers trying to argue clinical insanity, fixing mental problems

Dislikes: being proven wrong, loud voices, questions about his education background.

Purchase rules: -1 Cost if you have Dr. Gued

Trainer

Skills

• Con

• Negotiation

• Biotechnology

• Chemistry

• First Aid

• Medicine (only to 3 ranks or less)

Positive qualities

• Analytical Mind

• Indomitable

• Will to Live (3 Karma level only)

• Resistance to Toxins (only: you cannot pick up Resistance to Pathogens from this contact)

• Trustworthy

Negative qualities

• Scorched

• Combat Paralysis

• Driven

Special Rules

Supplier

Dr. Thornton can acquire the following gear for you:

• Restraints (all types) - no delivery time, half cost

• Antidote patches - no delivery time, no more than 4 per run

• Tranq patches - up to Rating 6, no delivery time, no more than 4 per run

• Moodchips, Dreamchips, and Tripchips - no delivery time, no more than 2 per run.

• refills for Chemistry kits (on hand) or chemistry shops (two day delivery time)

How does that make you feel

Dr. Thornton can be used as a psychiatrist on call, and make an appearance in non-threatening scenes. If you need to use his ability or his chemistry labs to prepare drugs or chemical compounds (or solutions) that have health-oriented uses, he needs at least 2 hours notice so that he can apply medications as needed. (If used as a modifier for a roll, he adds an additional 4 dice to social situations. If used for chemical purposes, he can create compounds or solutions of non-explosive natures as though he received 2 net hits.) GM determines cost of this feature.

Expert Witness

Sometimes, you might find yourself on the public side of things. If a character has a need for public legal interactions, Dr. Thornton can be called on for to act as an expert witness for mental stability - for a price. His testimony can be helpful or harmful to the cause, as needed, up to 4 bonus dice on a social, con, or psychiatric Knowledge role. (To use his ability as dice for an NPC, the cost is 5,000 for misdemeanors or 10,000 nuyen for felonies. To use his ability as dice for a PC, the cost is triple. He survives by staying out of the light.)

My couch is always available

If you need to get some bioware done, and don't want to go through license issues, Dr. Thornton can help. He has access to some bioware suppliers up to an alpha grade. If you don't already have a connection to it, Dr. Thornton can add dice to any connection roll for bioware up to alpha grade, and not Forbidden. These dice cost, though: 2,000 nuyen per die for your contact, up to 4 dice.

OOC: Please note any knowledges relevant to American football both in and out of character. The out of character is more to help enable player enjoyment of the run, players with OOC knowledge may have more fun due to the theme.

Please include your role, if you have run in the last 2 weeks, if you have <5 runs on the hub, and a short summary of the character in any application.

Run Prompt: Please give me a dramatic rendering of your character's favorite football play/moment as they experienced it. (Invent one.)

Postponed for team fits, this run will be reposted at some point in the future, encourage everyone to re-apply but I didn't have a group I felt like really hung together cohesively for this.

• The Wizard

I like prompts, so tell me (or your character's fixer) about your character's favorite trid.

And as is hub tradition give me your role, familiarity with the role, number of runs, number of runs this month, date of last run.

And finally, a disclaimer. Not everyone is appropriate for this type of run for one reason or another, whether due to theme or threat level, no hard feelings.

Run needed a mage and wheelman. I enjoy the concept of the run, so I might run it later.

<<RUNNERS>> 4?

<<DURATION>> 4-6h (hopefully on the shorter end); HARD Cap at 7

<<LOCATION>> Seattle

<<THEME>> Corporate Sabotage

<<TYPE>> Reverse Datasteal

THIS RUN STARTS AT 2330 UTC I MESSED UP THE RUN POST

"I require some data altered within a closed system. This will require the alteration of copies stored on hard, physical backups, as well as files in deployment environments. Being undetected in this data-insertion is essential to mission success, and revelation will lead to failure.

Physical backups are located on non-extraterritorial property but are, of course, not unprotected. A full list of files to be altered and to what specifications will be provided, your task is simple implementation.

Sufficient stealth or misdirection to ensure the primary goal of the mission remains undetected for a sufficient time period post execution is of course, essential.

Due to the nature of the information you are planting, compensatory structure will be that of nuyen stored in escrow with a two-week time release from mission completion to ensure the deception you are enacting has not been compromised; you will be offered a choice of several escrow agents and paid 15,000 nuyen each; the escrow fee will be handled on my end."

• Mr. Tanaka

OOC: Please read the IC job post carefully and do not apply if you have issues with the run or compensatory structure (this does not mean you cannot attempt to negotiate, but if your character will not accept unless the structure is changed, do not apply).

Please note if you have run in the last 2 weeks or have <5 runs for my own bookkeeping purposes; this will not significantly alter your chances of being selected for the run. Please also note if you are a GM who has GM'd more recently than they've played, as I feel for our forever-GMs.

I will pick or postpone ~20-24h from run start.

The air was chill and the wind wasn't helping, the lanky woman thought as she lit up an Aztech delicado and stared out over the glittering lights of Loveland. Vice, desperation and wild abandon rose in the air, the sensations almost palpable even from her idle loiter. The little paradise, some called it. She preferred to think otherwise. But she had business now, a real chance at something. Her eyes glinted with an unidentifiable excitement, the same gleam reflecting off the microrazors jutting from her fingertips as she clacked at a cheap comm.

A few hours later

Your chosen stroll through the streets of the metroplex has hit a snag. Namely, the large group of protestors and other sign-waving agitators across the street. Blessedly, they're peaceful for the moment, but judging by how most policlubs in this sprawl act you're pretty sure that won't last, if for no other reason than the people who are going to take offense. Your contemplation of the disturbance is interrupted by the chirp of your 'link, dutifully letting you know in the way only a machine can that there has been a job posted to the hub's board.

[Tags: New Johnson Account, Low Pay]

Hey chummers. Gonna be quick here cuz time's nuyen and I'm already short on that. I got some dirty work needs doing, except the dirty work is against drekheads so it's probably clean work. I'm not a philosopher. Point is, I can pay you hardcases a bit to get some stuff done for me and mine and you can even go home and sleep well for doing it. betcha don't hear that every day. Hit me if you want in.

• VV

Those protestors are getting rowdy. What do you say?

OOC: I'll be picking about 4 to 5 hours in advance.

An in character response to the prompt listed is heavily encouraged but by no means required. Your GM just likes reading them.

The office was clean and crisp. The climate control kept it pleasantly warm in the cooling air of fall. Anyone else in the building would have been happy to be here, especially with what the office entailed. The man sitting in the real leather chair was not, however, happy. His eyes flickered at the door, then up briefly at a security camera. It was time.

A few hours later

You shiver as the wind picks up, the sky overhead threaening at any moment to break open and send a downpour crashing down. The skyline of downtown is barely visible in the fog, and you can't stop the feeling on the back of your neck for some reason. For a few moments, the world seems to vanish around you and you are all alone on this foggy, empty street.

The electronic tone of your commlink breaks the spell, alerting you to a new posting on the hub by a new, but verified, johnson account

• Professionals required for Corporate R&R. 12k per contracter. Details upon tentative selection.

That's brief, but it's pay. What's your response?

OOC: I'll be picking about one hour to 30 minutes in advance. I need a PDF, a role, your familiarity (which wont disqualify you at all), and if this is A: Your first run on the hub, B: One of your first 5 runs on the hub, and if it's more than your fifth run, C: if you have not had a run in 2 weeks or more.

An in character response to the prompt listed is heavily encouraged but by no means required. Your GM just likes reading them.

Duration: 4-6 (I will not be doing a part two of this run. Hard cap of six hours)

Communication: Roll20 with Discord

Game theme: Drama and mystery with a dash of action

Prerequisites: Show up on time or notifying me of being late, a decent microphone, please keep talking over to a minimum I will give out warnings regarding this after three you're out. My runs are 18+, if you are below 18 please don’t apply. I don’t use the dice rolling bot on Discord, it has to be done at my Roll 20 table. My runs contain mature themes which are ever present inside the Shadowrun world.

I don’t accept any Sum to 10 characters, no exceptions.

Instead of applying like you do for other games give me a pitch to the Johnson from your fixer or just do whatever but make sure to include the following stuff. What you take to a meet usually, PDF, role, how many runs you been on, yes or no if your last run being 2+ weeks, experience with the role, connections to syndicates/corporations and time zones, please.

I'll be picking around 24 hours before or earlier if a team stands out at me.

<<RUNNERS>> BRING YOUR DECKER TO DIE

<<DURATION>> 4-6, pt. 2 TBD if necessary

<<LOCATION>> Cambodia, 1969

<<GAME THEME/TYPE/THREAT>> Player’s Choice/ FOUNDATION INSERTION / High threat (braindeath, Scorched/Simsense Vertigo/other negative qualities may be the result of death in the foundation or the receipt of a traumatic injury)

<<REQ’D READING..>> Le Jus Basique

The burner comm's persona is hissing with static - probably some Z-zone connection - as it dives through the Hub's host, dropping a job posting and blinking off in the burst of static.

<<CODE INSERTION TO FOUNDATION HOST. DANGEROUS METAPHOR ANCHORED.>>

<<Leftenant>>

OOC:

This is a foundation run. Deckers and Technomancers are highly advised; other characters may be brought on in with hitcher jacks, but knowledge skills play an important part in this selection process when lacking essential matrix-related skills. Please consult the RunnerHub wiki rules on foundation runs and Data Trails for more information.

All you need to leave are just the character names and roles. Please leave your discord handle if it is different.I don’t worry too much about how frequently people play or how long since last run, gmp, etc. - I will usually take at least 1 new player + 2 players with less than 5 runs unless threat levels/team needs dictate less or more.

[Disclaimer] Consequences exist in all runs, and criminal activity carries the potential to be lethal for all participants. Shadowrun is a dark setting in a world with a complex moral structure, but please keep me aware of your personal tolerance for violence, sexuality and filth.

[Disclaimer 2] I assume your character has certain core ‘criminal competencies,’ including a loose knowledge of the laws they are about to be breaking, and certain world physics without codified systems attached, and I will check with you before you cross these thresholds if appear unaware or about to take an action against your better judgement of the situation. This is not common sense, and common sense is not applicable in many of these situations, though your knowledge skills may apply.

[Disclaimer 3] Apprehension by law enforcement, border patrol, Military, corporate authorities, radical groups, syndicates, or other sufficiently-equipped remonstrating parties may have additional consequences to players depending on the circumstances around arrest, casualties/crimes committed, and what characters may be in possession of at time of detention. Job failure in a remote location may have further-reaching consequences than failure within Seattle.
