Although you’re skilled and well-equipped, you’ll be isolated and often outclassed on - and below - the streets. Monsters, maniacs and monitors can all take down an entire squad without blinking, and evil has a master-plan. Unexplained supernatural menaces, hideous abominations, unseen stalkers and horribly tortured civilians will test your nerves to breaking point. Action. Sometimes, your enemies will actually present a clear target. You might find your squad running sweep-n-clean in a hostage situation, in a frantic sewers battle with a pack of carriens, shooting it out with DarkNight, or going hand-to-hand with a serial killer. Either way, it’ll be fast and deadly. Revelation. SLA Industries is not particularly benevolent, and many of the things you’re instructed to do will feed your taste for power, but sap your soul - evicting the elderly out onto the streets so a housing block can become a casino, for example. In time, you may come to doubt. The Truth hidden by SLA Industries could bring the company down forever. but at what bitter cost? Where will you go to learn about White Earth? Contract Killer. Constantly on camera, with lives made up of enemies, cool equipment, gorgeous clothes and little green Hunter Sheets, ‘Killers are the superheroes of SLA Industries that every kid wants to grow up to become. Your ‘Killer won’t be doing BPNs like those other saps - you’ll be finding and taking out subversives, fighting other ‘Killers to the death for the cameras, and making sure your sponsors get good airtime. Once you become known, you’ll find yourself immersed in a lethal world of fame and glamour where the booze and drugs are yours for the taking, and there’s eager babes and hunks round every corner desperate to screw you, kill you, or both. If you survive your first week, that is. Street-level. If you fancy a real challenge, why not play as a civilian gang-member? You only get half the character creation points, cash in unis, no advantages/disadvantages, and you have to be human, but it can be fun going up against the Shivers, running scams and deals, defending your turf from other gangers, and generally being one of the bad boys. Cognate. For a truly dark playing experience, the group can take the role of a cognate of serial killers (generated more or less as usual). As one of the monsters, you’ll have a chance to explore your own dark side. Outwitting the Ops, stalking prey, and just surviving on the streets is a real challenge. The political world can be just as deadly as the streets. Competition within SLA’s ranks - between departments, rival sub-companies and even colleagues - is fierce, and you’ll be the target of endless intrigue, as your fellows do everything they can to bring you down, while defending themselves from your maneuvers. Mr. Slayer applauds the use of all sorts of political techniques to get ahead - including murder - just so long as you don’t get caught. …
