Real Lich Hours

With the Ripper dead, we join Sam’s sister Jessica at the funeral she’s throwing for Sam and their mother. Little did we know that she’s the reason Sam died, and there’s cults about. This means we’re headed deep into the Universal Brotherhood.

Also Discussed:

• Maria Mercurial

• Street drugs

• Ghouls

The Ripper strikes again! This time, it’s an unlucky someone down at the National Transportation Safety Board warehouse with a chest cavity full of soup. The problem is, there are no witnesses. At least, there are no corporeal witnesses.

Also discussed:

• Shadows of North America: The Great Ghost Dance

• Under the Hood: Hiring Runners

• Grimoire: Spirits

Pike’s Place is a famous tourist trap in real life, but in Shadowrun… it’s also a tourist trap. But there are also active murder scene investigations, VR drug dens, and some leads on the people who might know what happened to our friend Sam.

Also Discussed:

• The Neo Anarchist’s Guide: Simlink technology and BTLs.

• Paranormal Animals of North America: Hellhounds

Hey everyone! It’s Jake Armitage! From the cult hit Super Nintendo game Shadowrun. And he’s taking us to the Redmond Barrens. We must be real shadowrunners now.

This week we begin Dead Man’s Switch, the first of the three Shadowrun Returns games. Our runner is at the end of their rope, penniless and without any leads on jobs. Then they get a pre-recorded phone call from a deceased former colleague, promising a life-changing sum of money if they can solve the murder mystery. So, we suit up and head to SeaTac.

Also Discussed:

• Essence in Shadowrun

• What it means to be SINless

Step it up, chummer, we’ve got a whole new season of Real Lich Hours for ya. That’s right, we’re beginning our coverage of the Shadowrun Returns trilogy of games!
