re: Gender and cyberpunk rpgs, kinda neg
@IrisKalmia @Draekos @kelseyhusky Okay so how do you account for Multiple Systems in Cyberpunk?
Like are we just a big adventuring party in a can? Could one of us flatline and get revived later and be okay?
Keri: This is one of our standards of masculinity: Haephestos. The idiot who'll beat himself senseless every day crafting and fixing and making stuff only to get up the next day and everything is busted again.
...In our mythos, we save some space by bundling Prometheus, Haephestos and Sisyphus into the same overworked, underpaid and underappreciated deity.

@kelseyhusky @Draekos I just spent all day hammering away on my Lincoln Continental, Barchetta, because I believe in it's machine spirit.
And I fucked up the ritual in a small but meaningful way and ran outta daylight so I had to get a ride home. :\
That being said, I'll have to do it Again anyways on the Driver's side, so.. *Shrug* I'm not expecting everyone to submit to religious level masochism crawling under their cars and doing their own exhaust rebuilds or hauling engines out or anything but like...
Not a suuuper expensive church to get in. And you'd be amazed at what a full set of automotive tools lets you tear apart.

@Draekos @kelseyhusky I'm in a weird place as a Machine Shaman here.
Because, uh.
Machines have a Spirit too. Human effort goes into Making them, using them, keeping them, fixing them, modifying them... Living with them.
There's an exchange of soul energy that goes on. It's foolish to think that taking a bit of Machine into you will make you Less than what you were.
Serve the machine's spirit and it will serve you. And just like magic, usually you pay for this in Blood.
re: Gender and cyberpunk rpgs (+, I promise)
@Draekos They never considered that the human soul might be the kinda thing that borgs into Machines and assimilates them.
Of course these are the same folks who have Very close emotional connections with the tech they already own.

Me: *lowers hand*

@blackcorvo It's because it's a gimp mask that's been rebranded?
Southern Mass's local machine healer and part time witchdoctor.
Tiny motorcycles, magic potions, machine tools, progressive rock, trance states, and hand sharpened drill bits. Oh, and I read Tarot. Probably 18+ just to be sure.
