Jump #125: Transmetropolitan
>Ten of Swords (Crushing defeat brought about by idle intellectualism divorced from reality.)
HAHA I was hoping for a vacation jump. NOPE. Looks like we're going to have a very strange ten years coming up.
>Location: Print District
Huh. I'll just have to make sure I'm careful about what I do here, since practically everything I do will be on camera.
>Identity: Revival
>Drawbacks: Two Tugs (+100, scam); Ruinstorm (+200); Callahandy (+300)
Yeah, not bringing my supposed child with me when I leave. Come on, you can't fool a clairvoyant, even if it does mean I have to deal with him for the length of a couple comic book arcs. Ruinstorms... more troublesome, and I'm pretty sure that one of them will see me saving my kid and them actually feeling indebted to me as a result. And then dealing with Callahan's campaign... you know what, when that comes around that'll be a good way to ditch the kid. Too bad I'm going to have to try to convince people to trust the fuckhead.
>Buybomb Immunity (1500)
A small price to pay for a good night's sleep.
>Just A Gun (1400)
Handy perk, this. A gun is just a gun. The English language on the other hand... it's so much more harmful, so much more subtle.
>Deadly With A Phone (1250)
Getting threats across on the phone? Yeah, that's handy.
>Unexpected (1050, Revival)
I'll need this, where I'm starting out.
>Beatings Are Coming (550)
I may not have a chair leg of truth, but by God, I'll be dishing 'em out! Definitely useful when the phone is just not enough.
>Hidey-Hole (500)
Hey, everyone needs someplace to have five minutes of peace.
>Maker (0)
I've already got things that will serve in this capacity, but I don't think I've got an all-in-one solution short of a replicator. I'm sure this'll be useful! Just hope the damn thing isn't on Tripwire...
