cyberpunk story idea · 9:57pm Nov 30th, 2019
ok so i love sci-fi and writing ponies, so i recently decided to write one inspired by Shadowrun (cliche, i know lol)
the problem is, i've only played 2 sessions of the game and i wasn't very useful, so i wasn't enjoying it. i am, however, interested in trying again. and part of my "research," shall we say, is creating a story set in it. i've got a few ideas so far, and i understand most of the concepts, but i will still need help creating it and setting it in the Shadowrun world. so far i have:
it'll be an anthro AU
the Princesses are CEOs of the Megacorps
someone (it's a secret, pm me if you want the answer) wants to dismantle the power that Megas have over people
instead of Shadowrun races, we have Ponies, Yaks, Changelings, Kirin, Dragons, and maybe Deer
Discord is the network (Matrix)
while Shadowrun is the primary influence, i'd like this to be a general homage to sci-fi and cyberpunk itself. Fifth Element; I, Robot; Battle Angel; Blade Runner; Ready Player One; and other popular sci-fi stories can also be used
I am well studied in the Shadowrun universe. I’ve run campaigns in the awakened 6th world and know the ins and outs of the setting. From street samurai, to deckers & riggers, to hermetic mages & shamans, I’m a wellspring of knowledge on the subject. I also have a plastic tote full of novels. If you have any questions or need a sounding board, feel free to send them my way.
