Medusa
CLASS: Anti-Personnel COST: 11,250eb
STRENGTH: 5 MU: 7
PROGRAMMING: 258 DIFFICULTY: 43
FUNCTION(S): Anti-Personnel
OPTION(S): Movement Ability, Recognition, Conversational Ability, Pseudo-Intellect, Contextural Icon
COST MULTIPLIER: x25 (Anti-Personnel x25)
ICON: A lovely young woman dressed in an elegant evening gown and the snakes that pose as her hair pulled back into a topknot. She speaks with a sultry voice, alluring the ‘runner to glance upon her magnificient beauty.
DATA: This was truly an interesting program to put together. She does 8d6 points of damage to the ‘runner while turning him/her Icon into a stone statue that will remain in the matrix where it was frozen.
Netmare
CLASS: Anti-Personnel COST: 7,000eb
STRENGTH: 6 MU: 4
PROGRAMMING: 168 DIFFICULTY: 28
FUNCTION(S): Anti-Personnel
OPTION(S): Contextural Icon
COST MULTIPLIER: x25 (Anti-Personnel x25)
ICON: Whatever you’re afraid of, this program will construct an Icon to resemble that special someone or something that haunts your dreams. And in some cases, your every waking moment.
DATA: Everyone is afraid of something. This program will search your psyche until it uncovers that special something that causes even the most stout of heart to cringe in fear. For us netrunners, this program can be particularly unsettling. It can cause us to fear interfacing with Ma Matrix. Personally, if I can’t feel the loving touch of Ma Matrix at least once per day, I get mighty cranky. Whomever has fallen victim to this program must make a roll: Difficulty vs. 20. If the roll is failed, the person is incapable of performing their so-called duty for 1d10 minutes. Once this period has passed, a second roll is made. If this roll is passed, the person can perform as normal. If the second rolled failed, there is a 50% chance that that person ain’t nothing more than a blabbering idiot on the floor for 6d10 minutes. Or that person will become extremely violent for 6d10 in an attempt to escape his/her fear. Oh look. Here comes Max-Tac to handle your little psychotic episode.Whenever the victim of this program comes across the situation/person/what-have-you he/she/it fears, he/she/it must make a roll: Difficulty vs. 20. If the roll is passed, the victim can perform the task at hand. If the roll failed, the victim cannot perform the task needed to be done until they recover: Difficulty vs. 25. Awww. Havin’ another psychotic episode? Here comes Max-Tac to deal with it permanently.
Hydra of Domain
CLASS: Anti-Personnel, Detection COST: 24,000eb
STRENGTH: 5 MU: 8
PROGRAMMING: 288 DIFFICULTY: 48
FUNCTION(S): Anti-Personnel, Detection
OPTION(S): Movement Ability, Auto Re-Rez, Endurance, Contextural Icon
COST MULTIPLIER: x50 (Anti-Personnel x25, Detection x2)
ICON: A contextural Icon of an enormous creature with five heads and a twin tail.
DATA: This is a program that you don’t wanna be on the recieving end of. The program starts out with five heads and each auto re-rez causes a new head to grow. Example: the program starts with five head, then you hack one off. If the program re-rezzes, the original head and a new head will appear. Thus making a total of six heads. Each additional head after the fifth adds +1 to the program’s current STR. Six heads, STR: 6. Ten heads, STR: 10. There can only be a maximum of ten heads and a maximum STR of 10. Each attack against the netrunner will produce 1d6 per head. Oh my! That’s gonna leave a mark!

Hit Man
CLASS: Anti-Personnel COST: 10,500eb
STRENGTH: 8 MU: 8
FUNCTION(S): Anti-Personnel
OPTION(S): Movement Ability, Recognition, Invisibility, Endurance, Superrealistic icon
COST MULTIPLIER: x25 (Anti-Personnel x25)
ICON: A well dressed gentleman in a black or navy blue suit, a white, gray, or baby blue dress shirt, a black tie and shoes, and a pair of mirrorshades.
DATA: This program was an inspiration after a rogue hunter/bounty hunter tried to flatline me and my crew during a netrun to Afrikani. He was good, real good! But like Icebreaker says, “There is safety in numbers especially when the enemy doesn’t know when they’re there.” Hit Man can be programmed with the necessary data it needs to kill it’s intended target as well as containing a short message. It will attack from teh shadows of the ‘net and do 1d10 points of neural damage to the drekhead until it’s dispatched or the ‘runner is dispatched. Either way, someone or somethin’ is gonna die!

Updates auf anderen deutschen Cyberpunk 2020 Seiten

Ich habe unter dem Titel “Wie konnte mir die nie auffallen?” über die Seite von Alex Henkel geschrieben. In den Kommentaren meldet sich Alex zurück: Seine Seite ist wieder aktiv! Er hat neue Nanoware, Software und einige seiner NPCs überarbeitet. Und danke Alex: Es ist sehr schmeichelhaft zu hören, dass ihr wegen des Site-Newsletters wieder spielt!!! Ich hoffe für uns alle, dass eure Kreativität gleich zu neuem Material führt.

Den Newsletter kann man beziehen, indem man eine Mail an Update_KarstensCP2020-subscribe@yahoogroups.com schickt. Inhalt und Subject der Mail sind egal.

Der Rest in Kürze:

  • Raben-AAS bringt zwar seinen Cyb3rpunk-Content auch hier, aber durch sein Shadowrun-Berlin Material bleibt sein Blog auch für die Leser hier dennoch lesenswert.
  • Steelrain hat sich auf die faule Haut gelegt und spielt höchstens noch Pendragon. Nix neues von dort – leider. Dabei war er in Plön dabei und hat mich zum Cyberpunk-Leiten genötigt!
  • Die CPC ist hochgradig aktiv, aber nicht spielsystembezogen. Also abchecken, ne gute Idee für Equipment/Location/Abenteuer/Background gibts dort eigentlich immer.
  • Auch das Doktorsblog ist es immer wert, im Newsreader zu bleiben. Aber wie CPC vor allem als Hintergrundmaterial brauchbar.

Electronic Tattoos

I’ve talked about tattoos here before, namely on DNA Tattoos and a Genetic Hallmark. That stuff is far future at the moment compared to the electronic tattoo in the vid. Don’t know how much of the vid is fake, but its supposed to be a touch sensitive electronic tattoo. Check out the great and creepy music.

Even more Hello Kitty Guns

Outfit yourself with a Hello Kitty Brand pistol!

If you dug the Hello Kitty Assault Rifle, you will love these guns:

The Hello Kitty pistol is there!

or you might prefer:

I found both images on Hello Kitty Hell and its debatable if the pictures are of modified real guns, airsoft pistols or just the work of some good humored photoshop artist. Anyway, no cute cyberpunk girl will be seen without one, promise.

If you are looking for a real “cute gun”, check this out. Its claimed to be real.
