From what is in the Shadowrun Core book:
Troll Street Shaman
Human Covert OPs Specialist
Ork Sprawl Ganger
Troll Enforcer *
Ork Hacker
Human Occult Investigator
Elf Combat Mage
Human Technomancer
Elf Weapons Specialist
Troll Bounty Hunter
Dwarf Radical Eco-Shaman
Ork Gunslinger Adept *
Dwarf Face
Elf Smuggler *
Dwarf Drone Rigger
Human Street Samurai *
But those are really just an example list. I might have more from another sourcebook at home. I figure you might prefer a Melee Adept, a magically enhanced sword carrier.
Edit: * for the one's already made in M&M

Or do you men what archetypes were already converted to M&M?
BTW: I found my quickstart rules for Shadowrun 4th edition. I could try to convert the elf mage in there.

Sure thing, WD. I am wondering if it is time to start a RG thread. I am pretty much ready to start building the NPCs for the scenario, if I am not making more Archetypes.
I guess we really need a head count of who is really serious.
A few more people chimed in once or twice so we might have plenty. Food fight in a Stuffer Shack really needs about 5-6 PCs.

I'm in.
About magic: As you can only use spells you know in shadowrun, I would just use the sorcery mechanic from W&W and no variable power, like I did for the Warrens in the Malazan game.
(Sorcery = Magic with Side Effect (Fatigue, Always Occurs) –2PP), so one PP gives you one level sorcery. Each level of Sorcery gives you 2 PP to build your spells. First is free, others are bought as alternate powers.
Problem: You can only use 1 spell at ones without the independent extra.

Here is the Quickstart of the original rules with some world background information. It is the version without the shortadventure that we will play:

Human Occult Investigator, eh? If he can do magic, I'm all about it.

Hero; Here's my Archetype conversion. But I am not sure how the Sorcery works for picking the spells and calculating the costs. I am struggling to understand it in the M&M rule set.

I have the NPCs finished except for the Shaman. I have the same issue with him as I have for the Occult Investigator. Hopefully with WD's Combat Mage I will gain the critical understanding.

In the original setting, a rigger is more buying and upgrading drones / robots. His true schtick is to meld his mind to a machine or security system.
The Fatigue is no drawback, but a power limit. so you loose the two drawback points. On the bright sight, sorcery 6 costs only 3 PP
That nets 10PP
Is ritual caster for summonings? I just realized we need astral forms for the full casters. Building them as spell or from the ground up (expensive)?
I will post a slight modified occult investigator from Book of Magic for comprehension, tomorrow.
