Whee!<br/><br/>Very cool first chapter. :)<br/><br/>I have to say, I think everyone has an incredibly awesome and well thought-out character -- each with their own unique air of mystery and appeal.  I really enjoyed learning about each character's respective backgrounds and I know we've only even scratched the surface.  Kudos to the players!<br/><br/>The setting is great and seems to be cranked at just the right balance between familiar and surreal with enough invasiveness to make us just as paranoid as we are curious.  While it does feel like the walls are slowly closing in around the characters, the players are thankfully still afforded a great deal of freedom.  While I'm still fond of the original source for its own merits, I believe the switch to BESM3 was the best idea and it was good that we switched before the action really began.  Rock on, GM!<br/><br/>Now that we've been treated to the introduction, of course, I have a feeling the setting is about to fuck us.  ;D<br/><br/>Here's looking forward to more!
