"Into Bits and Bytes" (ICME Cyberpunk Oneshot)


#1

Hey,

I’m looking for 3-4 players for a Cyberpunk-themed ICME Oneshot.

  • We’ll be using ICVTT
  • and Discord for Voice and Video (either on RH discord or the ICRPG community server)

SETTING:

  • “Cyclone Inc.” controls everything: factories, research, law enforcement, medicine, food
  • 93.6% of the population have cyberware augments
  • moving a consciousness to another body is exclusive
  • buildings are getting higher, alleys are getting darker
  • there is nothing outside city, just nuclear wasteland

HOOK: You’ve signed in for a dangerous, infamous neuronal racing simulation. 1st price gets a custom sleeve.

TO PLAY:

  • let me know until Thursday (1 day ahead of game night)
  • create an ICME character and token (drop token and name here as your “sign in”)
  • freeform bioform, ability, starter loot and basic loot (e.g. use Altered State)
  • augments/cyberware are loot choices

Cheers

Update: 3 of 4 slots filled (in a discord thread), 4th slot may be filled soon.

But let me know if you’re interested too - I’ll probably run another oneshot in the near future.

I played in a pirate game of yours a while back and would love to get into another game. Time is about 4am for me. If you ever run one 2 hours later I’d happily join.


#4

I’ll keep that in mind for the next oneshot :shield:
You are japan-based, right? I remember you I think :slight_smile:

Yup, that’s right. I might be kind of forgettable though lol. Happy gaming until next time!
