Wound up dropping Wisdom to 14 and bringing Con from 9 to 12 and Dex from 10 (8 base) to 12 (10 base). I've also dropped Fiendish Sorcery for Prehensile Tail. I've adjusted everything that those revisions would impact and implemented a bunch of snazzy formatting changes.

1.) Abramac has a rank in Linguistics, giving him a 9th language. 2.) Done! 3.) Noted the schools of each spell and the DCs of those spells effected by spell focus (it changed one: Flare). 4.) Sure. 5.) Added some more. I'll likely continue to develop this as I learn more about the world...

I hope this is the right place! Here is my new (and first for LPF) character, Abramac. Edit: Francis John IV's sheet is superbly formatted! I'll have to steal the layout.

Technomancers are much harder to build correctly, in my opinion, whereas deckers kind of build themselves. With a decker just prioritize resources at A and skills at B. Buy the best cyberdeck you can (one of the availability 12 decks) and pump your Logic to max. Attributes are kind of a dump...

Hah yeah, technomancers can get a lot of flack. But this isn't shaping out to be a highly optimized team and balance with other PCs is the only kind of balance that really matters. You'll be all right.

I've looked into it and while it isn't corrected in the official Errata, the cost is listed as 10 + [Grade x 3] (the same cost as Initiation) in the French version of the SR5 rulebook. The 10 x [Grade x 3] formula is almost certainly the result of a typo and we'll be using the same formula as...

You have 2,910ny and the Spoof Chip is 500. So you can absolutely afford it.

Mosier, If you refer to page 425 in the SR5 rulebook you'll see that holdout pistols can't take accessories (the intent of this is to prohibit attachment accessories. Accessories like special holsters and spare clips are of course available). This means no smartgun system or laser sight for the...

Shayuri, The Browning Ultra-Power has a base cost of 640ny, not 670. 20 rounds of Stick-n-Shock ammunition will cost 160ny, not 120. You can only purchase ammunition and RFID tags in increments of 10. So 20 APDS ammunition for the Streetline Special will cost 240ny, not 144. The Stealth Tags...

It had completely slipped my mind that Thursday was St. Patrick's Day. Festivities took over and continued on into Friday. So I'll be beginning character verification later today (Saturday).

Yeah, aspected mages are quite limited compared to "full" mages. Players tend to want to play the strongest mages they can so you don't often see aspected PCs. Interesting thing is that aspected mages actually represent the great majority of mages in the world. Yup, you guys are free to use the...

Natural Hardening provides +1 when rolling to resist biofeedback damage (Firewall [Willpower] + Device Rating [Resonance]). It doesn't modify any other rolls. Your description of D0's Distinctive Style is good. Remember that what you're paying in exchange for Distinctive Style's karma bonus is...

I'm going to start the process of checking those characters who have been finished. Shayuri, is the character sheet in post #9 your official submission? Mosier, have you finished your character?

GlassEye, Not a problem, take all the time you need. I'm not sure what level of assistance you'd appreciate. I don't mind doing a full step-by-step walkthrough of creating your character with you, I just didn't want to overstep if you preferred greater autonomy. Like Shayuri mentioned, Riggers...

GlassEye, Any ideas kicking around? I notice that all three of the concepts we have so far are going to be high-Essence with few (if any) augmentations. Everyone in the group is likely going to be much less augmented than even the average wageslave. So there's plenty of room for a transhumanist...

Rubberneck's adept isn't all that fragile. Just more fragile than the vatjob we were making for him at first.

Chummer 5 (very likely the tool Shayuri's talking about) is a great aid. Everyone should consider downloading it here but it's by no means a requirement. I'll likely be using it myself to help validate everyone's finalized characters and make sure it's all legal. As for roles, it looks like we...

Since people are jumping into the nitty gritty of character creation I'll provide the notes I'd mentioned in the OP. - Everyone gets one bonus contact (Mac - Fixer - Connection 6 - Loyalty 1) and one bonus Rating 1 Fake SIN to start things off. The contact is how you guys meet and the bonus SIN...

Deleting (I understood your use of burned, but just for those who aren't familiar with the setting I'm using a different term. I'll typically use burn to mean that a SIN has been discovered as fake) a SIN is possible, but it would require hacking into every SIN registry in the world which is...

I'll have to look at it in more depth later, Shayuri, but one thing that jumped out at me is that you have more than 25 karma worth of positive qualities. You have 26! Judge!
