Welcome to the world of Shadowrun, where man meets magic and machine. Shadowrunners live between the cracks and operate outside the law, doing the dirty work that corporate wage-slaves wont soil their hands with and occasionally acting as the only protection the citizenry can turn to. And then the first Great Dragon rises from its 5,200 yearlong hibernation and circles over Tokyo, signaling that the world has truly AWAKENED.įast forward two generations, to a world transformed not only by the growth of magic but by the acceleration of cyber technologya continual effort to improve upon the gifts that nature gave humanity by the inevitable maturation of the World Wide Web into the Matrixa network directly accessible by the human brain and by the near elimination of governments as they are replaced megacorporationsmonolithic entities who see only customers, not citizens.Īnd moving through the dark shadows cast by the gleaming towers of the corps, are Shadowrunners disposable assets and corporate pawns scratching out a living using a combination of technology, magic, and street smarts. But all of these events pale in comparison to the horror of "goblinization", which painfully reshapes the teenage bodies of those unlucky enough to carry dominant Ork or Troll genes. As the magic increases, Elf and Dwarf babies are born to very surprised parents who carry the right combination of long-dormant genes. Aboriginal cultures, who maintained their mystical traditions, are the first to feel the return of magic and use their newfound power to reshape the political, financial, and physical world around them. So, on 12/21/12 magic will return, end this world, and wreak holy havoc while starting the next. Its part a 5,200 year cycle of death and rebirth that, in Shadowrun, actually charts the ebb and flow of magic from the Earth.

According to the Mayan Calendar (and lots of tabloids), the world will end on December 21, 2012. A 2D turn-based single player game with deep story interaction, meaningful character development, and highly-contextual tactical combat. You will then have two very durable characters in your team, but you will also lose the abilities of the Bard that affect all of your party members and/or enemies on the battlefield.Jordan Weisman, the creator of Shadowrun, is back and Shadowrun Returns is the game that Shadowrun fans have been waiting for. Due to the low health pools of the characters of that class, the combat difficulty will increase significantly in that situation.Īlternatively, you can exchange the Bard in your party for two Fighters. If you leave both of them and recruit Crux, you will have 3 Practitioners in a 4-man party. This is especially important when you have two Practitioners in your party. If, however, you selected a different class, you need to get rid of the character that occurs twice in your party. If you have chosen Bard as your character class, you should do as mentioned above.

If, however, you created your own character, the decision is a bit more difficult and depends on the class you selected. Her role in the team will be taken over by Crux, whom you will recruit at the beginning of the next quest of the storyline. In this case you should send The Green Lady. If you decided to keep the default one, you will have one representative of each class at the time of making this decision. This decision depends on whether you created the character or kept the default one.
