Troll-Combat-Monster.
Stupid Silly Fun. Nobody else will play Trolls usually, and most times they want to be the talky sneaky magicy guys with a rifle or something like that. So i usually go all out on Body and STR and go close combat and automatic weapons. Or Bow if i am feeling like being a Troll out of Game too. Yes, we still play SR3. |

Anything that lets me roleplay. Consequently, that's just about everything outside of Data-search specialist.

Either a combat specialist (always a Troll because... what else is there for combat?), or a hacker. I do the combat spec when I am feeling like I need to just go kill stuff. I do the hacker mostly and that is because I am a network engineer and I can't get enough computers. Sad, I know, but true.

My latest fun is my 3 cha minotaur face that can take a licking and keep on...well...talking I suppose. He can kinda shoot, and kinda hit people with things. He's mainly a talker and a brick though. Other fave has been a Face/improvised throwing thingies expert. A troll that go round. Next character I have in my head, should I get the chance to play it, is a minotaur mage.

This is no community project, right?
I personally find that i use mainly meat-world characters. Only reason is that magic and matrix rules suck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif) |

I generally run gun-bunny cyber guys. That said, my most (in)famous character was an SR3 Albino Elven Mage who always had elementals on standby.

I tend to play Technomancers ( Otaku 2.0 for you old people (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) ), Orks(Gunner/smuggler), or my new fave, Fox Shifter Mystic Adept Infiltrator.

Mage (usually Druid) or Rigger, in that order. Both can fight by proxy, and have high growth potential. I prefer playing Orks for Bod/Str.
