= CHAPTER SEVEN – HIDEOUTS and LIFESTYLES =
'''HIDEOUTS'''</br>
Shadowrunners are often in need of a safe house or base of operation. These might include both short or long term residence and/or bases. To make things easy assume a one bedroom flat is around Size 5, an one bedroom middle class apartment around 7, a small two or three bedroom apartment or home around 10, nicer two story or mid-sized garage 12 and a old warehouse around 15+. To purchase a hideout cost 10,000¥ +2,000¥ x Size. Renting such a place averages 1/20 the price to buy per week! (“Hey that’s pretty expensive!” Yes well as the saying goes “Life an’t fair chummer”).

The location of a base can have an effect, as being in the Barrens is generally going to reduce the cost by ½. Other Features might include an alarm system, security personal (or just the local gang on lookout), etc. Prices can vary wildly depending on location and need.


'''LIFESTYLE'''</br>
Characters are not always running or committing crimes. In between runs, most spend a lot of time at ‘home’, sleeping, eating, watching their favorite vid, etc.
* '''Squatter''': You are almost living on the streets. You rent a small, single room cube/coffin where you can store some stuff without it being stolen when your back is turned. You probably have to share a kitchen and bathroom (in seperate rooms you hope) with you fellow cube-dwellers. You eat only the most basic soy- or tofu products with no food flavoring substitute. 250¥/month. Characters suffer a -1 to all trait tests against Hazards (SWAE pg. 125). 
* '''Low''': You crash in a basic studio apartment, with a kitchenette and small bath unit, maybe even with an actual maglock to secure the door. You probably have a basic tridvid set up linked to your comlink for entertainment. You still eating soy and tofu food produces but now with some simple flavoring substitute so you can almost pretend the food is real. 1,000¥/month.
* '''Middle''': You have a one or two bedroom apartment, maybe with a separate kitchen area and maybe even a real shower that you can use every day. Your trid set up is better linked in and the food you eat has better flavoring substitute and you can occasionally offer some of the real stuff! 5,000¥/month. Characters living at this level for at least a month gain one additional Benny an adventure (not session but the whole adventure). 
* '''High''': About the best a runner will probably have. You have a nicer condo in a fairly secure area. Your food is mostly real with some soy and tofu add-on’s. 10,000¥/month. Character living at this level for at least a month gain a bonus of +1 to all trait tests again Hazards (SWAE pg. 125) and a extra Benny per session!
