I am saddened by the thus-far lack of Brazilian characters in Rio de Janeiro, and, to be blunt, black characters in Johannesburg - I'm really, really hoping that some of the unfilled slots end up being those, because otherwise I will go to sad to annoyed. There's some great oppurtunity for diversity here, and I am seeing a loooot of white. Hell, I'll write up Mira on principle, even, despite the fact that I'm a little 'eh' about her in this setting (she is totally a Sprawl character).
And holy fuck, is LA popular. To the point where I am now kind of wishing I hadn't apped there, because Asher is totally just going to get lost in the crowd, I think :\
I also have another character concept floating around, who for now is just the Scientist (or possibly the Scientist Chick) - either Berlin or St. Petersburg, depending on which ends up fuller, most likely, although St. Petersburg gives me the bonus of being able to pester Yana for info.
