				We can continue the discussion here.<br><br>If you can bear with me a little as I haven't played Shadowrun for like 14 years. Played 1st ed all the time. I found I had 4th. Forgot I bought it. a happy find. But I am a little rusty.

				Good news.&nbsp; They have Shinto in the supplementary book Street Magic.<br><br>They summon spirits of Air, Water, Plant, Beasts, and Man, and their secondary stat for dealing with Drain (stun damage you take from casting, rather than any sort of MP) is Charisma.<br><br>So you'll want to pick up the core book and the book Street Magic, either in hardcopy or in PDF format.

				At the moment I've definitely pinned down that I want to do some combination of Hacker/Face.&nbsp; Think courtesan by day, system cracker by night.&nbsp; Apparently the two sides base off of different stats, which is somewhat problematic, but I'm willing to take a hit to combat ability if necessary.&nbsp; Any stat or equipment suggestions?&nbsp; I have the books, but it'd be nice to get some feedback from those with a bit more experience with the setting.

				@Shihong: You going to do true hacker or technomancer?&nbsp; I suggest true hacker.<br><br>@Thorn14: Certainly.&nbsp; I suggest going for Astral Combat so that you can also be good at fighting spirits, and you'll want to pick up a Weapon Focus to be better at fighting astrally.&nbsp; However, if you want, you can also know other styles of weapons.&nbsp; Were you thinking guns or some kind of melee weapons?&nbsp; Or even something more exotic like a monofilament whip (an extremely thin wire which is used like a whip but rends into enemies and is highly illegal).

				@Shi I won't penalize someone for taking a interesting character. If i do that just encourages people to make main battle tanks.<br><br>A note on the Matrix. I will be simplifying it. In the book its a self contained world. kind of like tron (kind of) the problem with this is that even at a tabletop game the moment the hacker went into the matrix all the other players sat around doing nothing. Even worse in online play. So i'll do it more like Johnny Neumonic (spelt wrong) the hacker is just as important, but it will be just a little more traditional and can keep the other players more involved.

				True Hacker.&nbsp; Mind games sound pretty on paper, but the character I'm thinking of is definitely more of a straight-up techie.&nbsp; He'll be an elf, if that matters any.<br><br>That's a good idea, AndyZ.&nbsp; From other accounts it almost seemed like Hackers had to run their own little virtual side-stories in parallel to the other player's actions.&nbsp; That's actually a bit <em>more</em> doable in a forum setting, but it would definitely bog down the pace by quite a bit.

				Half fighter half mage can certainly work, but it'll likely be point intensive.&nbsp; You'll want to have a number of spells on you and/or foci to sustain your spells.<br><br>One option would be to be a mystic adept where half your stuff would be dedicated towards fighter-y (adept) stuff and the other half would be dedicated towards mage stuff.&nbsp; That would limit the power level (Force) of the spirits you could summon but it's quite doable.

				Yep Modern day Miko makes an excellent Street Samurai<br><br>@Muse its ok man. I have done other games. Haven't stopped gaming since I started with Red Box D&amp;D...ahem quite a while ago. I have all my Star Wars Saga books out, D&amp;D 4.0 which my kids bought me for Fathers Day (haven't played that yet) during high school we played all sorts of stuff. Robotech, Gurps, Star Wars D6, Rune Quest damn you name it. Shadowrun was twice a week instead of maths homework and friday and Saturday was spent at my friends place as they had a granny flat out back and the group would pull all nighters. Fun Times ;)&nbsp; <br><br>Pulled out a dusty box a bit ago and found some of my books I had put away. Starship troopers RPG was in there and pow Shadowrun 4th ed which I had totally forgotten I owned. So yeah happy surprise. But yeah I have not played Shadowrun since 1st ed. So I am reading the book and getting the rules slowly into my head. So I am bound to make some mistakes here and there.

				Part of the reason I did one character thread rather than a thread for each person was A: they are all in one place and B: This allows extra threads outside the main story r for sex if it happens. That way the story can continue and all parties can continue to post to that and the ones engaged in extra fun can post to the other thread. This way it keeps things moving.

				Yes. It is unrealistic that the guy would make the exact same call to all the runners. But as its exactly what you said there isn't the need to make it very elaborate. There is more reason for you guys to elaborate on than me as it gives the other players a quick glimpse at your character.<br><br>In the book the Hacking is kind of like the movie Matrix, closer to some of the Japanese anime really. A world within a world. But it slows things down to much and can get complicated. If you have seen Johnny Mnemonic, the data stuff in Minority Report that's how we'll do it. When your jacked in you'll see the files 3d and can manipulate them. But you won't be going into a trance or crossing into the digital realm like Tron.

				You will need some cards and hacking skill. It will take 2 min per card and you'll have to be plugged into their system to do it as you will need to implant the fake personnel so that they read the cards as good. Not impossible, but you'd need a little unmolested time on site.

				The game I used to play on Skype involved that the GM would give us a mission at the end of the week, and then we would spend the rest of the week chatting on Skype, planning and inventing a course of action.&nbsp; Then when the mission started the next week, we had something good to go and the GM had his mission set up accordingly.<br><br>This is what I'm used to but I understand if it's not others' preferred style.&nbsp; My point is more that I'm happy with the current speed but am also willing to speed things up if others prefer.

				I can move it along as soon as I know exactly what people are doing. I don't like GM's who just suddenly put the players somewhere unless the players have said we are going to X. I had a Star Wars GM who stuck us in a building that I wanted to stay out side of and then captured us.

				Spirits are in the astral plane by default, where they can move crazy fast and can very easily keep up with a car.&nbsp; People who can see into the astral plane can see them, but those are rare, and those people have to be actively looking to spot them unless they're dual-natured (rarer still).

				I will point out that the cards would work (if done properly) on most of the doors no problem. This could be useful in a middle of the night stealth go as you wouldn't have hack every door that was lock. Swipe of the card and your through. But as Elven pointed out they don't work nights or don't seem to often. Which means a stealth mission at night would have to rely on not being seen by the guards. However its not a huge firm which means limited personnel say 50. Not everyone would know each other personally but they have seen each other. 4 new ones in a bunch might stand out if all together during the day, but the bigger point is that current clothing is very cool and kick ass, it probably is not what the average worker wears. Which means a daylight stealth mission as in hiding in plain sight which is also a good option would need different clothing. When James Bond is going in plain sight he wears his suit, when he is sneaking in he wears his black jumpsuit. <br><br>I'm not telling you which way to go or that any of your ideas are bad. I am just pointing out a couple of things that may not have occurred. Clothing especially is easy to overlook in a text game.
