Work ran late and I still haven't eaten, so we'll probably be starting late, sorry.

EDIT: Disregard that, new plan: Start now and I disappear to eat dinner for a bit in the middle.

That. Is. Fucking. Awesome. +1 to Boter.

Yup, plan is same time tomorrow. Looking forward to it.

Well, there was the Fig reference for us TFNers. 

Backing up what Boter said, there is absolutely nothing stopping you from creating a character who looks and acts exactly like Teague. He can even be named Teague. We'll have to do some character building in the sense that we'll need to assign numbers to what fictional Shadowrun Teague is and isn't good at, but we don't necessarily have to build the character of your character, that can just be you, if you wish.

Shadowrun is actually particularly good for this, as you don't really chose a "class" to be, you just make a person with a particular set of skills and talents, i.e. you're not making a wizard or a barbarian, with set skills and roles and trappings of what it means to be a wizard or barbarian. Instead, you might making someone who's good at talking to people, can pick a lock if he needs to, is handy with a shotgun, and happens to have a little magical talent in his back pocket just in case.

I'm gonna second Saniss, the frenchie is talkin' sense.

Don't worry, I've found that giving players absolutely zero direction typically results in a lot of frustration for everyone. When we get things like setting figured out more we can figure out how we want to do this. Do you want to be a group formed with a purpose (e.g. we banded together to kill the BBEG), or would you rather have me pull you into a larger story as you go (e.g. you're pirates but the artifact you stole has much more significance than the money it's worth)?

Also, lets narrow Sci-Fi down more. Space Opera? Hard Sci-Fi? Sci-Fi with magic? Far far future or not that far away? Space travel?

To clarify, 2-3 hours is definitely enough time to get things done, 10 hours is not the norm.

It's worth trying. If it turns out it's not your thing, no worries.

There is an official Star Wars RPG, but I'm honestly not a huge fan of the way it plays. I could adapt another system to the Star Wars setting if we want to go that way (I bet Shadowrun's system would kick ass with some alterations, hmmm). If we want to do something custom, building worlds from the ground up is one of my specialties and something I love to do, so don't worry about it being extra work for me or anything.

My Friday, Saturday, Sunday is generally pretty busy, so it would be quite hard to make it happen on of those days. Very late on Sundays might work as a last resort. Weekday evening or night works best for me. Central Standard Time here.
