Greetings Ladies and Gents of FR,

The GM Team has gotten together and through various considerations of both player concerns and staff concerns we are planning to start a tone-shift for FR.

Basically as you know FR has been drifting towards ultra realistic and almost Grimdark for quite some-time. However neither are really fun or enjoyable to play. As a result we have decided to try and work our way back to the FR we know and love.

What Does this Mean?
- - - - - - - - - - -
This means that realism will take a back-seat to some more goofy, magical, or unexplainable things. Things that wouldn't happen at a real site, may happen here. Likewise something that might not happen here, would happen elsewhere.

Does this mean Characters need to change?
- - - - - - - - - - -
Not at all! This means that your characters will have more opportunity to react to strange things that you could expect at a site that spits out random dimensions in a Foundation where strange things are perfectly fine.

Does this Mean Realism is bad?
- - - - - - - - - - -
Nope! There are still elements of realism we aren't looking to make FR a huge joke, instead we are looking at lightening the tone. Bringing back some well-missed things (faceless monkeys, Augs, etc). If there is anything you want to see, let us the GMs know!
