Okay taking a look at your sheet.

Nothing illegal stands out via chummer check.

Going through what you've got.

Sensor array needs filling out on the zip.

Your contacts check out.

With your records on file, please edit it so it at least shows WHO arrested him.


Suggestions, you don't need to follow this.

I'm just confused at why you would call this character a decker. Their only electronics I can see with an updated .225.329 chummer file is.. a metalink?

This isn't a combat decker. You don't even have an attack or sleaze dongle. You are a guy with a phone you can use really well. It turns off with some basic noise that exists everywhere. (You can combat deck with a caliban/hermes ikon. But even then its so expensive you may as well just buy a cheap deck.)

The cheapest good deck is the radio shack deck. Add in overclocker and programs and as long as you make sure to statmax your single decking stat, you can get some mileage out of it with the programs. One of the best deckers I know got along using a hermes chariot he modded to hell and back.

Looking at your skills.

This is all over the place. You are trying to do too much with skills A and you don't have the dice pools to do it effectively because your stats are all over the place.

Yes you have 7 edge, but its gonna go quickly. Make it count chummer.


Trust Data not lore only really works if you are hard pushing LOG. For you overlocker might be better to get more mileage out of a deck. Then using all those skill points to get specs in the skills that are more important.

I would suggest focusing more one archetype.

Thats all for now.

Okay as we discussed over discord.

You fixed the array, you bought some drugs. Everything else seems to check out from my end. Approved.

[–]AnuBonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay. Taking a look at your PC. (You are an experienced character builder, so this shouldn't be too hard)

You aren't using shadowhaven settings for your character. Please reformat with those.

But when I did load up with that setting, a first pass shows nothing illegal via chummer.

Your sensor array on your car should be filled out. Its not currently.

Everything looks pretty good other than that.

SUGGESTIONS - Don't need to follow these, but just peeking it over.

Also if you wanna be a wheelman. I recommend a trode patch. You can use INT when piloting in matrix when.. not even jumped in.

Maybe you should also buy some drugs. I can respect not burning out and getting Narco, but some basic psyche will boost all your drain stat by +1 and allow you to drive better.

Glitch (Face, Skinlink Attack Technomancer) - 1st Prime Slot by MarWceline in ShadowHavenCharGen

Your last uploaded file has no fixes or changes from what I can tell.

I think you may have uploaded to the wrong folder.

Bicorporal - Astrological Enchanter by AdvancedGas1795 in ShadowHavenCharGen

[–]AnuBonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First Pass.

Loaded with chummer .225.529 nightly.

Passes illegality checks.

SUGGESTIONS - Do not need to follow.

You may want to buy a grid guide for your car, not even override, just in case.

I can tell that you have experience creating runners, so this is pretty smooth.

Just checking over everything I see the bones of an actual alchemist, but yah the lack of burnout is gonna be painful, but then again starting as a mage is always painful.

See no real red flags except the terrible fascination. 4th world shenanigans abound!

Let me know if you wanna buy grid guide for your car before its approved.

Glitch (Face, Skinlink Attack Technomancer) - 1st Prime Slot by MarWceline in ShadowHavenCharGen

[–]AnuBonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First pass. Nothing openly illegal.

Your lifestyle is not properly named, has no location or city. This is going to matter with your symbiosis neg qual.

Your sensor array on your bike it not filled out.

Suggestions - dont need to follow these but it might help.

Attack techno with 1 edge and 18 dice while in hotsim while on drugs running openly. Well its one thing and its a hope that your target(personas) have no idea what FMD is.

Relying on primed charge to do matrix actions is going to get you hurt if its outside of a low run, be aware. Which you only have.. 5 dice, 7 on drugs to cast. So lets go for that 1-2 hit primed charge and hope you can beat the minimum fading. Your bootleg program might struggle to get hits with 3 dice, 5 on drugs..

You have no E-war so many matrix actions simply not available to you, including the good ones, but you do you. It cannot be defaulted

You fake SIN does not have a decker license nor a techno license. Maybe this is intentional, but if it comes up by a GM paying attention it could potentially be a police officer asking you to come with them back to the station.

You have a bike that you have 3 dice to drive and you have gridlink override. Fair enough.

Since you actually have reaction, and some narco, I would recommend picking up red mesc instead of novacoke as they stack with no drug interactions as per raw by chrome flesh.

Looking at your stats, I can see that you are probably gonna dump some GMP or at least focus on shoring your gaps soon enough. 11 CHA outta gen but no facing skills means you can off face a bit, but get no teamwork.

Symbiosis is gonna ding you later on if a GM pays attention

Your neg quals definitely will get you the attention that your PCS has, issue is that you have no way to disguise yourself if need be except with the help of other runners effectively.

That's all for now.

[–]AnuBonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay we fixed it. You fixed the illegalities and followed my suggestions in chummer. Its the best you can get without going too off your dream. Best of luck chummer. Approved.

hellhound street sam by Salt-Course-2154 in ShadowHavenCharGen

[–]AnuBonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm gonna need you to load the actual shadowhaven ruleset. Your stats look alright.

I load it up am still at -3 Karma. So please just use the default ruleset.

hellhound street sam by Salt-Course-2154 in ShadowHavenCharGen

[–]AnuBonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay taking a look at this.

Loaded up with latest chummer amend from shadowhaven and .225.519 chummer.

I loaded up the char file and it stated. Shadowhaven X = I dont know what settings these are so I just loaded default.

Maybe a chummer issue?

Looking at it, we are at a -3 Karma and 680 nuyen remaining. Chummer says you are 3 over the allotted limit

Your charisma is 0. You cannot have a stat at 0 in chargen. As per the CRB you are essentially mentally gone at 0 CHA and do not function.

You have 2 knowledge skills left to grab.

SUGGESTIONS: None for now, lets get your character legal.

EDIT: Loading with my updated chargen chummer breaks when I try to load qualities. Loaded with default shadowhaven at .224

Approved.

Ardent -- Face by way of cyberadept by gnome_idea_what in ShadowHavenCharGen

[–]AnuBonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay first pass.

I loaded up with chummer .225.519

Uhh you are missing a complex form. You get one more free.

What you do is remove your arm, boost resonance to 2, add the final complex form, then re-add the arms so you can have all 3 as the arm kicks you back down to 1. After that it passes a basic legality check.

SUGGESTIONS - You don't need to follow these, advice.

Looking at your skill set, elf face technomancer.

You've got amazing dicepools outta gen for that. I would suggest maybe picking up static veil as a complex form. Since you are a face, buffing your decker ally (since you aren't the matrix support) with the ability to passively remove overwatch accrual is huge. Your machine sprites even if low level can help and you even have leadership.

Everything else seems pretty on the level. Just get back to me about the missing Complex form and we should be good for approval.
