AND SO IT CAME TO PASS. ..
= > > > [ The Sixth World Shuffle ] < < < = **In the Wireless World of 2072, Magic and Technology meet in the shadows beneath the oppressive Megacorporate Enclaves of the 'Big 10'.** **Elves, Orks, Dwarves, and Trolls now walk amongst Human men and women in this new Sixth World, as Dragons and VTOL's dot the skies of the Urban Sprawl overhead.**

**Shadowrunners do the dirty business no one else will handle.**

**Street Samurai -- whose bodies are augmented to superhuman capacity by cyberware -- run cover & infiltration ops with the help of magically-enhanced Adepts; while Hackers manipulate the virtual reality of the Matrix 3.0 that overlays our own geography. Magicians cast powerful spells and manipulate spirits called forth from the astral plane; and Riggers blur the line between man-and-machine, essentially becoming the drones that they pilot. It is rumored that others are emerging as well; persons with extraordinary abilities -- some even able to manipulate the digital world without the use of computers at all -- and those seemingly born of the beasts of myth and legend itself.**

**Joyboys and Pushers turn tricks and peddle designer drugs on the corner; where at their feet in the gutters waste BTL-addicted Beetleheads -- trapped in synthetic fantasy.** **Nomadic roving bands of Go-Gangers wage bloody battles for turf or reputation as the Lone Star Security Corporation -- who hold the CityState of Seattle's policing contract -- strives to keep the registered population of SIN//ners// safe; while organ-legging Ghouls prey on the weak and naive.**

**This is Shadowrun.**

THE YEAR IS 2072. THE WORLD HAS CHANGED. ..

= > > > [ Why 3+ Characters? ] < < < =
 * And Why There Are No Metavarients Without Them... **
 * 1. ** The SR:SOP world will be persistent, so your character cannot be in more than one place at a time -- and may not survive a job at all.
 * 2. ** Some jobs/team-ups may be incompatible with your character's morality, requiring a replacement from your pool to join the fray at the meeting proper.
 * 3. ** Careers will be forged, Prime Runners will retire, and comrades will die. The more options available to the player, the better equipped they are to play.
 * 4. ** You are playing Shadowrun, a cyber-fantasy world of Orks, Dwarves, Trolls, Elves, and Humans. Others are mostly unseen. The 3+ Rule reflects that.
 * 5. ** Get HMHVV, the sheet goes to me! Drakes are a mistake! No Sapients as compatriots save Shifters as drifters! Disappear it, Spirit! Purge the SURGE!
 * 6. ** [[file:s-run/SRM_FAQ_2012.pdf|SR4M]] creation guidelines enables all core SR4 sourcebooks -- while disabling the disruptive rulesets. SR:SOP rules re-enable valuable RP elements.
 * 7. ** SR:Missions is the canon storyline, and -- with the exception of some Qualities/Drawbacks -- your character will be cross-compatible for SR:M play.
 * 8. ** Multiple GM's will be running games within the SR:SOP world; so players have a standard to keep to avoid over-powering or off-balanced gameplay.
 * 9. ** Because it's Shadowrun and you know that you want to play... So Game On, Chummer!!!
