Baltimore in Shadowrun 4E

The city pulses with danger and opportunity alike.

Baltimore is a city of extremes: sleek corporate arcologies like ARES dominate the skyline, while the streets teem with gangs, magic users, and shadow operatives carving out their own territories. Fell's Point buzzes with nightlife and covert operations, while underground zones like the I-95 tunnels provide shelter for those resisting corporate dominance. Holographic warnings and drone patrols are constant reminders that freedom comes at a price. Every alley, every rooftop, and every neon-lit street corner holds stories of survival, rebellion, and intrigue. In this fractured city, your choices as a runner will shape the balance between oppression and autonomy.
