The game in a nutshell:

SR4: I have all the books so they're open, plus Sprawl Survival guide if you wish to flesh out your living space.
Points: 400 BP but, dont worry about that yet as I want concepts first.
# of players: 5

The 'meat' of the proposed game:

I want flawed characters, possibly a little comical but not so as to take away from the game. For example..the Face is a middle aged former used car salesman, the muscle is so punch drunk he cant help but slur his words and, the rigger has so many DUI's that his regular vehicle has a device he has to blow into to start it (breath-alyzer). I'd like to see negative qualities actually be incorporated in a character and not some point shuffling so you can get some more "goodies".

Feel free to expound upon my examples or create your own.

I'll reiterate again...comical is fine but not so as it takes away from the game. Being comically flawed doesnt mean retarding the play of the game.

Hope some of you are interested.
