It's the great equalizer. It'll stop a troll the size of a car as easily as the smallest dwarf or the thinnest elf. it ain't a weapon, a spell, or even a dragon - it's hunger. When it's time to eat, you just gotta get the stuffers into your stomach before you go berserk. What are stuffers? They used to be called junk food or munchies. They're probably just as good for you as nutrisoy and krill-filler, regardless of those ads from the Nutrition Council. When the pangs hit, there's only one place to go (especially when the sun rises in about an hour) to find that kind of chow. it's the place everyone loves to hate: Stuffer Shack.

"Ach, ich schlafe zu spät." A brownout at Leon's apartment resulted in his alarm system failing to wake him at the usual time. Still, while skipping breakfast is less of an issue for him than others, he felt like mixing things up anyway. He had put on his armor and some rather business-casual-esque clothing over it, packed his pistol in the coat pocket in its usual holster, and got on the bus, following the route and getting off at a stop nearest to somewhere to grab some grub. 'Stuffer Shack?' 'Die Snackhütte?' How quaint a name that was. Considering the neighborhood and aesthetic, he assumes he can both afford and stomach anything there and heads inside to browse the stock.

gently caress the rain. Seriously, gently caress it. It took her too far back, back to London, back to her childhood, back to the seemingly endless gloom that hung over the rainy city across a continent and a pond. And it was the sort of weather that just cried out for a cuppa. And a cuppa required biscuits, which she was fresh out of. So here she was, out of her dry, dark, cramped basement apartment, three stops down on the bus, looking for something sweet to eat with the last bit of earl gray she had back at her apartment. She was unarmed, annoyed, and wet, but her earbuds were pumping the latest in wizpunk into her ears. Small comforts, right? Her black coat was all but soaked, dripping on the tile floor as she stood toward the back of the store and considered the different cookies. If only one of them was actually labeled gluten-free, it might have saved her the ten minutes it was going to take her to read through every list of ingredients and try to piece out what would and wouldn't bother her all day.

The strongest! The smartest!
The rightest!
"Big" Richard Mayfield, AKA Aggro



Sometimes you just want garbage.

Aggro had "graduated" out of the streets. He had an actual apartment now (still comfortably close to one of the many entrances to the Ork Underground). He had drones to clean the place up. He had food processors that never went out and had non-soy foods (usually). He never had to ration his water. He'd tasted actual coffee, made from beans. But frag it all, he wanted an Azteca Breakfast Burrhito and a tasteless grim soycaf. He grew up on this drek and it never did him any harm!

And that's how he ended up in the early morning in a Stuffer Stack, shock glove on one hand and Defiance in his coat (because even if he's just going to the Stuffer Shack, he isn't a fool), his proper shotgun hidden on his chopper outside. He nodded weirdo goth girl acting as if anything here was gonna ghoulify her, and makes a beeline for the insta-cook foods.

"Yeah let me get the soycakes and soyeggs with the hashbrowns. Large Orange juice, thanks so much!" Ayesha says politely but wearily. She had just came from partying at club penumbra: drinking, dancing, and enjoy this new cut of nova coke. Then she heard of a wiz afterparty in the barrens and she figured why not. She looks into her purse, fishing out a credstick to pay for her breakfast and goes to sit down. "So worth it." Ayesha mumbles to herself as she puts a slap patch on for the headache.

Hey can I buy a transys avalon commlink, a micro-transceiver, and assorted things? Started running out of cash at the end of chargen.

Rick Artyomov


(picture by Bryce Cook who did a bunch of awesome art of some of the SNES Shadowrun characters

Sure, MacReight said keep his head down, but Rick needed to get some soy in his gut or he'dl croak anyway. This jacket might be a bit big on him, but it'll keep him safe. Worst come to worst, he has the gun MacReight dumped into his lap. MacReight worries too much, but he's a fixer, it comes with the job.

Walking through the Stuffer Shack, Rick smells it, that glorious smell of hot synthmeat. Hot dogs, pizza, the works. Sure a lot of people hate the stuff, but after the first time he had to eat raw nutrisoy to survive suddenly everything else tastes just a little better. Rick had a decent amount of nuyen on his credstick, so he'd be fine getting himself a decent... well, "Decent" meal.

Great tracts of neon and fluorescent lights that leach away color to make everything a uniform, dull gray indicate that you have arrived at the home of synth-alcohol, soykaf, porno-sim-chips, Holohayo 3D greeting cards, pneumatic fluid for your bike, cheap fetish trinkets for the magical wannabes, soygrits, and a full line of stuffers with no redeeming nutritional or social value. Yep, the good ol' Stuffer Shack, home to a smell you can't recognize (and probably don't want to) and thousands of nuyen worth of stomach-rotting chow. As an added benefit, it's open 24-7-365. It's pretty busy for this time of night, especially since torrential rain like you just ran through usually keeps normal people at home. The elf girl behind the counter looks like an angel; even the fluorescent lights can't dull her beauty. Her vacant stare indicates that she probably only has one asset and you've already noticed it. Coming out of the storeroom is a dwarf wearing an apron and hauling a load of Nutrasoy Energy Cakes™ (both kinds, the original Euro-Chocolate and the new Caribbean flavor). Talking non-stop (mainly repeating the phrases, “Stop that!", “Drop that! ”, “Put that down!” and “Get over here!") is an obese woman with a shopping cart and an equally obese child who seems to want one of everything the store offers. ln other words, everything is normal for a Stuffer Shack, even at 4 a.m. There are other people shopping in the store, but you hardly notice them as your stomach growls again and you head for your gut rotter of choice.

Map:


There are four vid-cameras in the store. One above the checkout counter (Area A) focuses on the patron and the cash register, while a second one above the counter focuses on the front door. A third one monitors the back corner between Areas] and K. The fourth camera scans the parking lot.

Aisle 1: Air filters, radon testers, water purifiers, Detoxy™ products (“Clean Your Oxy Use Detoxyi”) and other environmental and antipollution products for the home.
Aisle 2: Automotive and bike supplies.
Aisle 3: Soaps, detergents, bug sprays, roach condos, rat traps, big rat traps and so on.
Aisle 4: Small hardware, household goods, paints and sprays
Aisle 5: Personal hygiene soaps, sprays, pads, strips and spritzes, in regular or industrial strength.
Aisle 6: First aid supplies, along with a big sign reading: “Don't Wait To Get Hit... Stock Your Medkitl" There are also patent medicines, vitamins and so forth.

First impressions of this place: It was larger on the inside than it looked on the outside. Secondly, it was pretty alive for the tail end of the graveyard shift. Third, there was a woman in Aisle 11 who was either very picky or very indecisive about what they were trying to find. Perhaps he could assist? Besides that, sweetbread and Soykaf sounded like a good impromptu meal anyway. Entering the aisle, he attempts to spark up conversation while gathering up a handful of plain doughnuts.

"Und what is die Frau looking for at this hour? A secret passageway? I would be checking the top shelf, it's where all the specialty things go."

He heads over to the newly-erected display near the end of the aisle, thinking of gathering just one more item for fun and variety.

Ayesha grabs herself a hot dog and a cola slushie to keep her sated while she waits on the cab to pick her up and whisk her back home to Bellevue. She also swings by and grabs 2 bottles of the most expensive elf wines to take home, hoping the price tag ensured it would be halfway decent at least. She flashes a smile at the cute elf chick when she goes to checkout but otherwise keeps it moving.

As you go your separate (or coincidentally similar) ways, you are enfolded into the dull chaos of the Stuffer Shack. At the end of aisle 5, near the counter, the obese woman and son continue their battle of wits over what to add to their cart. The dwarven employee building the NutraSoy Energy Cakes™ display is either deaf or conditioned from years of working here to willfully ignore everything going on around him, including Laughing Dog.

Down from Lilith, over in aisle 16, is a pimply, gangly human in some nebulous phase of puberty. He's sitting on the floor wearing a Stuffer Shack apron and stocking cans of soup on the shelf from a cardboard box. He looks up briefly at Lilith, swallowing nervously, before resuming his slow pace of work and vacant gaze off into space.

When Ayesha reaches the checkout counter and the pretty young elf (whose nametag reads "Wanda"), some competition arrives from near the front of the store. A human dressed up as a Japanese warrior wannabe, with a topknot of hair dyed red and obviously fake elf ears glued over his real ones. Not to mention a long sack over one shoulder, probably a toy katana or maybe even an 'authentic' bokken. He rudely inserts himself between Ayesha and Wanda and begins flirting with the checkout girl in a horrible fake Japanese accent.

Sitting on the counter in area E/F is a human woman, dressed to get noticed in long coat over a skimpy pair of cut-offs and a halter top. The duster has a gory emblem on the back, a skull with a bloodstained icicle stuck through its left eye. She is sipping on a fountain drink and gives her best 'gently caress-me' eyes to both Rick and Richard as they approach.

Ayesha
Sometimes when you work as a consultant you don't always get paid in nuyen. Recently Ayesha did a job where she got paid in UCAS script. Most of it she converted into Nuyen proper at a bank in the city but she still had a decent wad. So she pulled it out of her purse, folded up the roll of hundreds and palmed it: before slapping the poo poo out of this Elf Poser, right in his fake glue on elf ears. "What does your anime bushido say about this, you greasy fraggin poser?"

"Gang girl, no doubt." Rick thought. He'd seen the type before, starts flirting with you and suddenly her gang rolls in and claims you're being 'ungentlemanly' towards her. Next thing you know you wake up in an alley with half your gear missing and a broken bone or two. Hell, the giant Orc behind him could be in on it, although he looked more interested in the burrito in his hand than anyone around him.

Rick gave her a weary acknowledgement nod, trying not to engage her to much, and got himself a soycaf. Drink in one hand and his food in the other, Rick backed off and started towards the register, where a lady was yelling at some guy dressed as a dumbass.

"Ow. Well that's no good," he thought. Quite the crabby one, she was. No matter. I suppose I'll just get a SoyKaf and..Oh dear. Looks like a confrontation's due to break out soon. His money was on the angry one. Of course, this also got him thinking. Wouldn't it be hilarious if the poor sap took a spill while running and crying home? Yes, yes, this woman's given him a nice distraction /and/ the perfect setup. He gets a bottle of clear soap, opens it up, enters a sneaking position and heads over to the doorway, where he'll quickly and carefully lay a few well-placed strips of the stuff directly along the route he suspects the poser will take out. And then just add the bottle of soap to his bag of items he needs to purchase today, along with a small pack of napkins to clean up after this mess later.

EDIT: See below.

Lilith let out an annoyed sigh and gave up on her cookie hunt. This little poo poo-show had two gluten-free offerings, and both of them looked more like soycakes with chocolate chips than anything someone might actually consume with tea. Exasperated, she was about to turn to the door when she saw the alteraction go down at the front, near the register. Oh who the gently caress was that chick picking a fight? She just smacked that kid! She looked lithe, and like she was too nerdy to actually pull off punk-rock. I mean who buys a punk rock jacket from a place like Vashon? That completely defeats the point. How gauche! And now she was going to pick a fight with some poor wanna-be poser, like she had the right to defend elfkind?

Lilith started bringing up some magic in her mind, and then stopped. She glanced over at the boy stocking shelves, who had given up the stocking and was now mostly just trying to seem invisible while the fight went down. She winked at him, a happy grin on her face, and said, "Don't you just hate it when impolite people start this sort of a mess, darling? Let's see if we can't make it more fun, at least."

With a word or two and a gesture, the entire front of the store fills in with a thick fog.

Mist (Force 6): 14d6t5 7 down to 6, because Limit.
Drain Resist (vs 3): 13d6t5 4 and no drain!

SG, p. 117 posted:

MIST
(ENVIRONMENTAL, AREA)
Type: P Range: LOS (A) Duration: I Drain: F – 3
Mist creates a thick fog that blankets the entire area of effect. The mist is dense and difficult to see through, imposing a visibility modifier equal to the hits scored by the caster. The mist dissipates quickly based on the surrounding temperature and winds. Generally speaking, this means the vision modifier is reduced by 1 per Combat Turn, though gamemasters may make this reduction slower in cool, damp areas and faster in hot, dry areas.

That's a 12-meter bubble of fog---at least most of the front of the store. Everyone in the mist takes -6 visibility, and every [unit of dissipation time] it improves a bit! How fast does a huge fog cloud dissipate inside a convenience store? After that goes down, I scrub the signature.

Inflation sucks; back in 2E/3E the exchange rate was 2:1.

The elf poser grinns a bit at the sight of the wad of cash, but the grin (and one fake ear) is quickly wiped away when he is struck. In a flash that can only be the result of enhanced reflexes, the poser is holding a naked katana in his hand. An actual steel one, even.

"It says that I accept your challenge, baka gaijin."

Wanda screams. The rest of you look up and the samurai wannabe has a katana in his hand with the business end at Ayesha's throat. In the blink of an eye, the front door crashes open and three people rush in, all screaming at the top of their lungs. One of them, a human who looks like he would weigh 46 kilograms if 40 kilograms of cement were attached to him. stops screaming and unloads his shotgun at the display behind the counter that contains the camera monitors. An electrical buzz filters through the shocked silence in the store (even the obese woman shuts up for a second - before she starts screaming). The guy wielding the shotgun then shouts, ‘‘I am the King of the sprawl and it’s time to collect taxes! Gimme everything you got, you drek-eatin’ slime!"

Ayesha quick draws her Ares Predator V, loaded with standard ammo, from her concealed QuickDraw holster under her jacket, uand fires a shot from the hip into the weeb-sam while backing up and then running away. Hopefully she doesn't take a dull katana into her spine while she makes her way to AISLE 17 to find some cover from bullets and stuff!

quick draw threshold 2: 13d6t5 3
Quick Draw semi auto: 14d6t5 5

Ayesha's shot is accurate but ineffective, as the glorious samurai uses his katana to parry the bullet in mid-flight!

At least, that's what he'd probably claim. In actual fact, his wannabe-bushi tunic proves to be armored, despite being cut sleeveless. The poser is unharmed. The bullet, meanwhile, ricochets or fragments into the cheap countertop display. The residual heat of the firing is more than enough to cause some melting, and the pair in melee and immediate area (which includes Wanda) are given a fine coating of clear, sticky plastic. Everywhere within 2 meters of the A on the map will now count double when determining walking vs. running. So Ayesha is considered to be moving 4 meters to reach aisle 9, plus the additional 7 to reach aisle 17, and so is considered Running for the rest of the Combat Turn. This spill effect - and all future 'splash damage' - will last the entire combat.

When Ayesha tries to retreat out of sword-range, the poser flashes out with his katana...

...and whiffs completely. Ayesha makes it to cover without further incident.

Laughing Dog is up now.

So let me understand this. He was shot with 12P (truncating 3 dice from the back end due to situational modifier: Attacker in melee combat) at AP -1. 4 net hits. And he's been shot and took no damage? No stun damage or physical damage? How? You really need to start explaining things in your updates too. Like this poo poo makes no sense unless you are gm fiating or he somehow got 12 hits on a soak test. If you are gm fiating please let me know.

BLASTING THIS NERD WITH SURPRISE: 15d6t5 6

(14P, AP-1, and since I was sneaking and he never made an attempt to actively find me, he gets no defense roll and we skip straight to damage.)

(EDIT: To clarify, if you'd agree that the katana man was completely unaware that I was there until I fired at him and would be surprised by this, he gets no defense roll. He does get to roll soak, however.)

I didn't use a die roller that saves, but I didn't GM fiat it. He got a single hit on his Reaction + Intuition roll, knocking you down to 3 net hits, then a MASSIVE 13 successes on 16 dice for Body + Armor - 1. (Armor Jacket 12, 5 Body.) It would be an epic moment in his life if his life wasn't going to end here anyway.
