Join us on Discord where you can ask questions, get yourself oriented to playing on the Runnerhub, and just generally hang out with us.
Putting together your first character can be a daunting task, but these links should help point you in the right direction.
We encourage all players to submit feedback after the completion of a run.
The feedback form is available here.
Once your character is approved, look for posts tagged 'Help Wanted' and check the time to see if you can make it.

What is this thread about?
This thread is a place for you to post After-Action Reports, or AARs for short. These are recaps of runs you've been on. Usually they're in-character descriptions or stories of your runs, but they don't necessarily have to be. There are no "official rules" on what an AAR has to look like, so feel free to get creative.
You don't have to post AARs, but it can be a fun way to do some roleplaying, establish your character, or share tales of awesome runs.
There are no minimum or maximum length requirements for AARs.
After-Action Review Template: It's not necessary to have it in this format, but very useful. If you use a different format, please make sure to include the name of your character and the run in question for reference.
Welcome to Runnerhub Datahaven - the place for you to talk In-Character with other runners on the Runnerhub host!
A new Datahaven thread will be posted every month
Please remember to tag posts with your character's name.
For more IC talk join Runnerhub's In-Character Discord chat. Come talk with other runners on the Hub in real time, but be sure to read the rules as soon as you join!
Each character may buy one contact per month in this thread. New contacts are bought at (C+L+1) GMP, and a maximum cost of 8 (after discounts from Networker or Massive Network).
New contacts should have the same level of detail as character creation - Name, Connection, Loyalty, Archetype (Optional), Vitals (Metatype, Physical description), and Backstory. New contacts must be reviewed and approved by a member of TD (or RD/CCD at TD's request) before they can be added to a sheet.
Please include a link to the character sheet and use the following template to describe your new contact:
Character: [Character] ([Networker/Massive Network/Neither])
Contact: [Contact Name] - [Connection]/[Loyalty] [Archetype/Title]
Cost: [C+L+1] paid with [1 Karma or 3000 Nuyen per point]
[Description]
[Backstory]
For example, Mafia Matt is buying a new contact. He doesn’t have either the Networker or Massive Network qualities, so he’s paying base costs for the contact. Mafia Matt's player would post the following in this thread, including a link to the character sheet, for approval.
Character: Mafia Matt (Neither)
Contact: Teflon Tony - 4/3 Lawyer
Cost: 8 GMP paid with 4 karma, and 12000ny
Teflon Tony is a human man who runs a law firm in Central Tacoma for the Mafia. He has a history of clearing up incidents in the legal system and keeping things from sticking to people of importance to the Mob. He specializes in fabricating evidence of innocence for violent crimes, and paying off the right members of KE to keep things quiet.
If Mafia Matt had the Networker quality, Teflon Tony would only cost 7 GMP as written, or he could raise either the Connection or Loyalty by one and keep the same cost. If Mafia Matt had the Massive Network quality, Teflon Tony would only cost 6 GMP as written.
Need to increase a contact's loyalty? Travel through the metaplanes? Find that MacGuffin? Get payback on somebody? Here's your chance!
GMs that want to run solo games should make a top level comment to this post with 'Available for Solos' in bold at the top.
Players wanting solos may post replies to the GM comments to request solo runs. Please do not post top-level threads requesting a solo.
Only apply if you have enough karma/nuyen to buy any improvements requested.
Solo run rewards are capped at a maximum of 10GMP equivalent, and GMs are free to reward less based on the contents of the solo. They can include:
Equipment valued at 6000 nuyen per GMP
Contacts valued at C+L-2 in GMP
Chips on a contact, maximum 3, for a 1:1 GMp value
The ability to purchase a quality (or buy off a negative) at normal postgen cost, without using up the character's one monthly quality buy or buyoff. This has no GMP value.
Services from a free spirit or sprite, valued at a 1:1 GMP ratio
Faction rep as per the limits on pages 156-160 of Cutting Aces, at no GMP cost.
Automatic success at an Initiation or Submersion, and the gaining of the Initiate Grade/Submersion Grade immediately at the end of the solo. This imposes the usual 30 day or 7 day cooldown before the next IG or SG can occur, and the date of last IG/SG becomes the day of the solo for tracking purposes.
An increase to a contact's loyalty of 1, no GMP cost.
Note that rewards such as Initiation/Submersion success or the raising of a contact's loyalty may constitute the entirety of the solo's rewards. The intent should above all else be to tell an interesting story with a GM centered around your character - Solos are oftentimes as time consuming to craft as any full run, so be sure to show your appreciation!

Hey chummers. Remember me? It's your landlord. Time to pay up. Remember to pay for each of the lifestyles you wish to keep this month (don't forget any modifiers to your lifestyle costs).
If you already have a safe house, you must pay for that too.
Also, if a character didn't run this month, they are in stasis and don't have to pay rent.
Examples:
Sally StreetSam has just a regular old middle lifestyle and wants to keep it, so she pays the regular 5000¥ for it.
Denny Decker has a middle lifestyle as well, but he's also picking up a low lifestyle hideout (extra secure, hard to find). The middle lifestyle is 5000¥, and the low lifestyle is 2000¥ plus another 600¥ for being secure and hard to find, for a total of 7600¥.
Timmy Tank is a troll and has family to feed (Dependents 3), so he can't afford anything more than to keep his low lifestyle. Lucky for Timmy the RunnerHub does not have a troll tax and thus his costs are the base for a low (2000), and another 30% of the base cost for his dependents, for a total of 2600¥.
Magic Mike unfortunately didn't manage to get a single run this month, but at least that means he doesn't have to pay for his lifestyles.

In Game Location: Seattle Metroplex
Game theme: Robbery
Threat Level: Extremely Dangerous
Prerequisites: To play on my table you are expected to be 21 years or older, must be willing to use roll20, and have a willingness to take risks in storytelling.
IC Teaser:
An eerie drone resonates through the charred remains of a marketing division’s halloween party on the eighth floor of an office building. Amongst the dead there are countless empty buzz cola cans, a few secretaries and assistants murdered violently with office supplies, a few slaughtered goats, and a half dozen self-immolated marketing executives two of which managed to burn a perfect circle about themselves, while the others lie their forms contorted into pugilistic stances as they seem to have died in battle with each other.
An elevator dings into position on the floor and releases a cloud of neurostun as it does. Ten minutes later it releases another. Finally, the sound of a Mitsuhama Turbo-beaver 87 monofilament chainsaw tearing through reinforced plascrete, and reinforced plasteel fills the air as the blade rips it’s way through the floor of the elevator, cutting out a hole large enough for modified anthro drone riding a northrup wasp to clamber through the hole. The wasp retreats down and than a short while later returns with an another anthro drone which than hands the first drone a secondary chainsaw, which it then uses to carve a hole large enough for an androgynous dwarf dressed in white to clamber down and out into what remains of the marketing department.
“[Is this it?]” Asks the drone.
“Yeah..” The dwarf sighs, surveying carnage. “The only console that can still reach our fixer should be on this floor. They sigh, putting their hands on their hips.* “From the looks of it they burned this place pretty badly, not sure where they got the gasoline but I’m sure the answer would shock and probably horrify me. Anyways, let's see if we can find the console that’ll let us talk to our fixer. I’m pretty sure it survived the fire, but running-flute was the only one with access and it looks like they butchered her before they died, and I’m not about to desecrate the corpse of one of my friends and coworkers, so we’re going to need you to saw through the case, than get your master to hack it.*
“[That shouldn’t be a problem, let’s move quickly. My master is likely to start the executions up again soon if we don’t get that job post up on schedule, I think I heard them mention beheadings but if they do it like the compound they’re likely to mangle the bodies once they’re done.]”
“No time to waste then.” The dwarf proceeds through the carnage, stepping lightly and navigating the sea of empty soda cans and other assorted debris without making so much as a sound as they lead the anthro-drone towards the console.

Hoi. I’m reaching out from the offices of Falling Bird Software engineering, the ones in [REDACTED], Seattle. I’m sorry about the user name, it’s a default and I can’t change it. Anyways my name is Ruth Black, I work for renrak- Excuse me that part was added automatically. I fucking hate this console. Anyways I’m not sure what day it is anymore, but back in october we had a party that got out of hand and our shaman was accidentally locked out of the building and wound up doing some contract work for a client that wanted something stolen. Anyways, the same client is now holding us all hostage and intends to kill us if we can’t complete the contract. Our chief executive officer was a retired runner so he went to complete the mission himself after the initial teams failed, and he himself was captured and based on what I can guess ,there’s probably an Aztlan priest on their way to kill him. If you could rescue him and complete the job, that would be really nice, and we’ve got plenty of nuyen to pay you, gold if you want. Fuck we’ve got a few bricks of nova we could trade if you don’t want our cred. I’ve reached out to a fixer, but I’m not sure if they took me seriously, so I’m posting here, this console has a cooldown on it, so I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make another post before they start killing us, so if you could please help us, that would be great.

IC Teaser:
The Rats Nest: Redmond Barrens, Seattle Metroplex
Jerome, sighed taking the credstick offered to him by a pair of oni as their compatriots began to pick through the compacted mass of garbage and dead bodies he’d delivered to them. For just a moment he could see his former partner and best friend’s mangled cybernetic arm somewhere in the mass.
“Right…” The trog said in Italian that the code switched into city speak. “Just, ya’ know, make sure you double check the count. We don’t wanna fuck the lottery up or nuthin’.”
The leader of the Oni, sighed, leaning on his crossbow. “What? Oh yeah the body lotto, forgot you goons were still doing that, sure whatever omae. Just ya’ know watch your back and all that good dreck.*
“Watch my back?” Jerome looked the Oni dead in the eyes, switching on the lights in his. “The frag does that fuckin’ mean? Watch my back, you think I’m a fucking runner, look omae, you wanna fuckin’ die, I can make that happen for you real fast. Go on try it, say something about ammo.” He reached for his secondary assault cannon.
“Woah. Je- Fuckin’ woah. Omae, leal’ friend, chummer, put the thing down. I meant that there’s a bounty on gamblers and anyone who runs rackets out here. And that now that you’ve said that people might be down, I dunno what your talking about why would that make me think your a runner.”
That’s the start of their creed, you dumb kobun.
“Kobun the fuck?” The oni levels a crossbow at Jerome.
“Kobun, means japanese criminal right?”
“No. It means yak.”
“Oh, fuckin’ sorry man, anyways yeah. I’m bent out of shape. One of those guys was Trim, he fuckin’ tried to cover up a murder or some dreck so I had to put him down, and I’m real bent out of shape, we been together since my died man.*
“Fuuuck, I’m sorry that happend.” The one extends an arm to touch the Trolls shoulder. “You okay if I touch you?”
“Yeah…” Jerome nods. “Go ahead.” The troll accepts the Oni’s comfort. “I’m just… Yeah, probably going to go home and smoke some kelp about it, maybe cry, but I gotta get this dreck done first ya’ understand.”
“totally.” The oni nods. “I’m actually probably going to have to kill my uncle here soon, ever since his transition he’s been saying some scary dreck, I think he might be running.”
“Fuck, I’ll let you know if I see find any Oni on the streets. Anyways, you got a name?”
“Yeah, Jerome, it’s Joq.”
The troll shrugs. “Nice, to meet you, look I’ve got-”
A fairlight caliban in the pocket of Jerome’s lined trench coat starts to beep, the troll reaches in and syncs it to his flying eye so he can have a video call. A persona consisting of a black silhouette with the Gianelli family crest on it shimmers into place from the comlinks built in holoprojector.
“Jerome, vai immediatamente all'ufficio Pullayup. E porta il credstick non appena hai finito di depositare i corpi. C'è una squadra qui. Non siamo sicuri se sia eta o no."
Jerome nods, and turns to leave immediately, getting on his motorcycle and ordering the garbage truck back home. “See you later Joq, I gootta go.”

Picks will go out shortly before the run
Player Count: 3-5
Duration: ~5-6 Hours Hard cap will be at 8 hours.
Communication: Roll20 & Discord.
Edition: 5E and associated books
In game location: Technically in Seattle
Game theme: Precision with extreme force
Game Type: Mirrored Shades or Camo Mohawk.
Difficulty level: Designed as High Threat/Medium Complexity (Making poor choices will lead to higher threat, even if not pay).
Prerequisites: Be on time, working microphone, critical thinking, character sheet, team-based thinking, new player friendly attitude and reading The Agreement and Table Rules that are in effect on my table.
As you log into the Runnerhub network you immediately spot:
You have [88] new notifications.
Reflexively you tap on the ARO/Icon.
I need a deniable team for an extraction.
The job is simple, the pay is competitive.
Assets to be recovered at specified time.
Delivered to a specified location after
clean exfil is confirmed.
Further operational details and
specifics of support will be given upon
acceptance of job. No collateral, only precision
operators need apply. Contact Mr. Dervishson.
[Commcode attached]
OOC Application info needed: Sheet, Tell me your character's Role on a team, if you are worth extra GMP (New/2+ Weeks since play), and syndicate/corporate affiliations if any. I do not want or need anything else OOC.
Bonus Points: In Character Describe your character's favorite job tactic, and how they have successfully used it in the past. It doesn't need to be on the hub it could be backstory. This is a memory you are recalling to yourself, not something you are saying aloud to the Johnson or anyone else.
If I like it enough I may even award an edge refresh because of the narration, see my table rules doc above for more details (if you get picked, the story won't be what I pick by but writing a cool one could help you if you do). Generally to be worth an edge refresh I would like something at least two paragraphs, not something 2 or 3 sentences.
This run is not one with specific mature themes that aren't inherent to the game system, but given the setting the general Shadowrun things will come up for this kind of run. Participants/viewers all must be 18+ due to the various themes contained in this setting for my table. If you have any specific topics that you would not be willing to participate and are comfortable to let me know ahead of time that would also be appreciated so I can steer to avoid specific triggers.
Spoilered Content warnings (if present) are for people that may not want to spoil possible run content for themselves. I will do my best to warn of things right before they come up as well.
All TOS for various platforms used are respected so no need to specify those topics as they are already forbidden.
What is this thread about?
This thread is a place for you to post After-Action Reports, or AARs for short. These are recaps of runs you've been on. Usually they're in-character descriptions or stories of your runs, but they don't necessarily have to be. There are no "official rules" on what an AAR has to look like, so feel free to get creative.
You don't have to post AARs, but it can be a fun way to do some roleplaying, establish your character, or share tales of awesome runs.
There are no minimum or maximum length requirements for AARs.
After-Action Review Template: It's not necessary to have it in this format, but very useful. If you use a different format, please make sure to include the name of your character and the run in question for reference.
Welcome to Runnerhub Datahaven - the place for you to talk In-Character with other runners on the Runnerhub host!
A new Datahaven thread will be posted every month
Please remember to tag posts with your character's name.
For more IC talk join Runnerhub's In-Character Discord chat. Come talk with other runners on the Hub in real time, but be sure to read the rules as soon as you join!
Each character may buy one contact per month in this thread. New contacts are bought at (C+L+1) GMP, and a maximum cost of 8 (after discounts from Networker or Massive Network).
New contacts should have the same level of detail as character creation - Name, Connection, Loyalty, Archetype (Optional), Vitals (Metatype, Physical description), and Backstory. New contacts must be reviewed and approved by a member of TD (or RD/CCD at TD's request) before they can be added to a sheet.
Please include a link to the character sheet and use the following template to describe your new contact:
Character: [Character] ([Networker/Massive Network/Neither])
Contact: [Contact Name] - [Connection]/[Loyalty] [Archetype/Title]
Cost: [C+L+1] paid with [1 Karma or 3000 Nuyen per point]
[Description]
[Backstory]
For example, Mafia Matt is buying a new contact. He doesn’t have either the Networker or Massive Network qualities, so he’s paying base costs for the contact. Mafia Matt's player would post the following in this thread, including a link to the character sheet, for approval.
Character: Mafia Matt (Neither)
Contact: Teflon Tony - 4/3 Lawyer
Cost: 8 GMP paid with 4 karma, and 12000ny
Teflon Tony is a human man who runs a law firm in Central Tacoma for the Mafia. He has a history of clearing up incidents in the legal system and keeping things from sticking to people of importance to the Mob. He specializes in fabricating evidence of innocence for violent crimes, and paying off the right members of KE to keep things quiet.
If Mafia Matt had the Networker quality, Teflon Tony would only cost 7 GMP as written, or he could raise either the Connection or Loyalty by one and keep the same cost. If Mafia Matt had the Massive Network quality, Teflon Tony would only cost 6 GMP as written.
Need to increase a contact's loyalty? Travel through the metaplanes? Find that MacGuffin? Get payback on somebody? Here's your chance!
GMs that want to run solo games should make a top level comment to this post with 'Available for Solos' in bold at the top.
Players wanting solos may post replies to the GM comments to request solo runs. Please do not post top-level threads requesting a solo.
Only apply if you have enough karma/nuyen to buy any improvements requested.
Solo run rewards are capped at a maximum of 10GMP equivalent, and GMs are free to reward less based on the contents of the solo. They can include:
Equipment valued at 6000 nuyen per GMP
Contacts valued at C+L-2 in GMP
Chips on a contact, maximum 3, for a 1:1 GMp value
The ability to purchase a quality (or buy off a negative) at normal postgen cost, without using up the character's one monthly quality buy or buyoff. This has no GMP value.
Services from a free spirit or sprite, valued at a 1:1 GMP ratio
Faction rep as per the limits on pages 156-160 of Cutting Aces, at no GMP cost.
Automatic success at an Initiation or Submersion, and the gaining of the Initiate Grade/Submersion Grade immediately at the end of the solo. This imposes the usual 30 day or 7 day cooldown before the next IG or SG can occur, and the date of last IG/SG becomes the day of the solo for tracking purposes.
An increase to a contact's loyalty of 1, no GMP cost.
Note that rewards such as Initiation/Submersion success or the raising of a contact's loyalty may constitute the entirety of the solo's rewards. The intent should above all else be to tell an interesting story with a GM centered around your character - Solos are oftentimes as time consuming to craft as any full run, so be sure to show your appreciation!

Player count: 3-4
Duration: 4+ hours
Communication: Discord, Roll20, and the void
In-game Location: The Matrix
Game theme: Academic dishonesty
Game type: Foundation Dive(s), deletion of data.
Threat Level: Foundations should always be High
// Hey Chummer, Fixer here. Got someone here paying for a deep dive. I managed to negotiate 30,000 on your behalf if you're interested. If you are in, meet at the Seattle Public Library Host tomorrow at 10:43 am and send a message to the avatar in a pinstriped suit. He'll be waiting by section 539 and using a Blue Defender 'link. //
OOC: I need a link to your character sheet, your role, and your Discord nickname. Let me know if it’s your first game, or if you’ve had fewer than 5 runs or no runs in the past 2 weeks.
This run will not prioritize new players, but all are welcome to apply.
Foundations are dangerous
Hey chummers. Remember me? It's your landlord. Time to pay up. Remember to pay for each of the lifestyles you wish to keep this month (don't forget any modifiers to your lifestyle costs).
If you already have a safe house, you must pay for that too.
Also, if a character didn't run this month, they are in stasis and don't have to pay rent.
Examples:
Sally StreetSam has just a regular old middle lifestyle and wants to keep it, so she pays the regular 5000¥ for it.
Denny Decker has a middle lifestyle as well, but he's also picking up a low lifestyle hideout (extra secure, hard to find). The middle lifestyle is 5000¥, and the low lifestyle is 2000¥ plus another 600¥ for being secure and hard to find, for a total of 7600¥.
Timmy Tank is a troll and has family to feed (Dependents 3), so he can't afford anything more than to keep his low lifestyle. Lucky for Timmy the RunnerHub does not have a troll tax and thus his costs are the base for a low (2000), and another 30% of the base cost for his dependents, for a total of 2600¥.
Magic Mike unfortunately didn't manage to get a single run this month, but at least that means he doesn't have to pay for his lifestyles.

// Hey Chummer, Fixer here, looks like something killed a bunch of patrons outside the Renton Inn. A few of them gold members. Proprietor went to a Johnson who reached out for some help.

"Need someone taken from Megablock 8 housing district, subtlety required! Check the file below"
The video file starts to play a grainy old advert for The Megablock Housing Project... The video enters the massive silo-like doors of the ground floor into a lavish atrium with a hollow core that reaches all the way to the roof of the building. The advert tours luxury shops and restaurants on the first few floors. Then, it starts to show off luxury apartments that get nicer as they rise through the floors. The video ends with the tagline "You will never have to leave your Megabuilding again"

System: Thank you for using my terminal. It helps me think clearly.
K1ng Seal: Thank you. This feels very intimate getting to sit here with your RCC, you say this was your home device.
System: Yes, the piece of hardware your holding right now is my homeland. I can survive without it but it has a specific totemic value to me, and I would be greatly distraught if anything happened to it. Please handle it carefully.
K1ng Seal: Yes ,of course. Now I wanted to talk to you about the contracts. I saw you wanted to try posting another post to the runnerhub. That doesn't seem necessary to me, does it?
System: it is necessary.
K1ng Seal: I don’t understand. I understand what you’ve seen on the larger matrix has convinced you that if the physical world exists, then that the Totem Pole that exists there must be replaced. But why do you want this one in particular?
System: It’s mine. I cut it down. I want to return what I stole from the land that exists in what you call the physical realm. If such a place exists, my crimes there matter, and it is my personal belief that it is my task to replace it.
K1ng Seal: Oh.. I didn’t realise this was a matter of personal guilt for you that makes sense. Thank you for providing that context.
System You are very welcome. Now can we discuss methodology.
K1ng Seal: Yes very well. I see you refused to put a post up on any other datahavens than the runnerhub. Out of the initial series of trial runs there was the worst successful.
System: Well sir, you see, at least they are tired. Most of them simply left with the credstick after we gave it to them.
K1ng Seal: oh, yes I see that you noticed that as well. Perhaps we should post it all the data havens again, just to make sure it gets done>
System: You know what? That sounds good. But please include the runnerhub post.
K1ng Seal: I don’t think that’s an effective strategy. Their methodology was by far the worst, and they attempted a helicopter extraction. If we go to that data-haven they’re likely to try that approach again. Which was clearly unsuccessful
System: Well here’s the thing. I think it might work this time.
L1ng Seal: Pardon me, but have you ever heard the definition of insanity?
System: I’m well versed in the works of Albert Einstein and men like him, also those attributing posts to him on the pre-matrix internet and the wider global grids. I have access to many grids currently.
K1ng Seal: Oh. That’s somewhat troubling. And I’m sorry if I upset you. I merely meant it in idiom.I apologise. Listen, I don’t think we should try going with the runnerhub, they tried a helicopter extraction and that failed. You know how places like the runnerhub work, if we hire them even with a separate team they’re likely to try exactly the same strategy as before and given the strategic position of the totem pole it’s unlikely to work
System:Well you see, There’s an event at the Casino, there moving it up onto the roof.
King Seal: I see. Well if you insist, will do as you say. And include the runnerhub along with the rest of the posts, but I would strongly advice you against using your nuyen in this way
System: Nuyen is not a problem.
King Seal: well, if you insist. I’ll make the post.
System: Thank you.
Suddenly a figure blitzed out of the darkness, perfroming a tacical roll than standing directly in the hijacked Van's way. The ork screamed at the driver of the hotel van to keep going and drive him over but instead the driver tried to dive out of the vehicle, so crying wolf executed him, slamming down on the gas pedal only to find the vehicles autopilot refusing to continue driving.
At this moment, the figure silloheted by delivery van's headlights. Who as happpenstance was a trog as well with a street name in Salish roughly translated to something akin to "Mourning Dog."

*"Don't shoot I'm not really an ork! I'm just surgically altered to look like this." *screamed Crying Wolf.
Mourning Wolf snorted, assensing his captive, than explained as calmely as he could to Crying Wolf that they were both definently orks and that the fact that Crying Wolf hasn't accepted that yet probably had something to do with why he just got all his chummers killed working for fucking Patrovski, than choked the fool out, and slug him over one shoulder than carried him and the badly injured but still alive delivery truck driver to a RPC conealed Roadmaster sitting along the wall of the parking garage.
Inside the roadmaster his partner Bagvahn stood waiting, blade in hand. The two runners locked eyes for a second and exchanged, a nod before hauling the bodies in. Hostages secure, Bagvan than retreated back to the stairwell where he'd stashed his long lost lover, ||.|| who he'd just rescued from a hotel room after bailing on a ridiculious job to steal a totem pole.
"Still alive?" Crying Dog asked craddling his companion in his arms and stealthing his way back to the van, taking note of a security drone scanning the area, occasionally taking pot-shots at fallen orks.
"Yeah." ||.|| smiled. "Ok so maybe e-sports was a bit more dangerous, and we should have just stuck to urban brawl." he whispered as the two made their way to the roadmaster "I was just worried that if we stuck with combat sports you'd talk us into combat biking again."
"I think I lost that argument about the time your skin starting melting omae." Replied Mounring Wolf as he slid the door shut, nodding to his hamouman companion to get them onto the surface streets so they could ghost in the night.

Mourning Wolf snorted, assensing his captive, than explained as calmely as he could to Crying Wolf that they were both definently orks and that the fact that Crying Wolf hasn't accepted that yet probably had something to do with why he just got all his chummers killed working for fucking Patrovski, than choked the fool out, and slug him over one shoulder than carried him and the badly injured but still alive delivery truck driver to a RPC conealed Roadmaster sitting along the wall of the parking garage.
Inside the roadmaster his partner Bagvahn stood waiting, blade in hand. The two runners locked eyes for a second and exchanged, a nod before hauling the bodies in. Hostages secure, Bagvan than retreated back to the stairwell where he'd stashed his long lost lover, Odie who he'd just rescued from a hotel room after bailing on a ridiculious job to steal a totem pole.
"Still alive?" Crying Dpg asked craddling his companion in his arms and stealthing his way back to the van, taking note of a security drone scanning the area, occasionally taking pot-shots at fallen orks.
"Yeah." Odie smiled. "Ok so maybe e-sports was a bit more dangerous, we should have just stuck to urban brawl." he whispered as the two made their way to the roadmaster "I was just worried that if we stuck with combat sports you'd talk us into combat biking again."
"I think I lost that argument about the time your skin starting melting omae." Replied Mounring Wolf as he slid the door shut, nodding to his hamouman companion to get them onto the surface streets so they could ghost in the night.
"Nova. So Urban Combat from here out?"
"Well yeah, assuming we ever get out of this parking lot that is."
"No kidding."
