April Shadowrun Chat Transcript
A couple of weeks back, Catalyst held its first “in character” Shadowrun Fan Chat. Fans got to don their own Matrix personas and join some (in)famous JackPoint regulars on an open chat on the ShadowSEA forums. The topic of the day was the new street drug “tempo” and the underworld upheaval it is generating—the central elements of our upcoming campaign book Ghost Cartels.
Our goal was to hint, tease, and foreshadow some of the plot elements and surprises to be featured in the campaign book, and to do so in a decidedly different and fun way. Suffice it to say that it was a lot of fun. We decided to run with this unscripted and unmoderated, and it turned out quite well—if a bit chaotic. We will definitely do something like this again in the future.
We want to thank the freelancers who played the roles of the JackPointers and everyone who participated in the chat. And without further ado, here’s the transcript.
Disclaimer: While we did do some editing, we decided to leave the chat as fluid and chaotic as it was on the day.
