Hack the Planet!, Character Critique, part the next Options

[DarkKindness]

All righty, folks, here's the hacker build that I promised. A little later than promised, but I like it as an initial build. Fairly augmentation-happy, but should be able to kick a fair amount of matrix ass. Without further ado:

Yes, I reverted to the BP system for the time being - I'll wait for errata/official support to shift permanently to the Karmagen system (this means that yes, I re-did the math to move the other four characters back from Karma to BP. Glad that I did, though - found a couple of errors, and made a couple of edits, which you'll all see... very soon!).

That said, on with the character: this guy is an ice-cold pro hacker. He's focused on pretty much nothing but breaking into other folks' computers and then letting them know he was there (thus the Signature and Wanted Qualities). He's been caught by the law a couple of times, but has thus far managed to stay out of a Star cell by bribing them (and is In Debt in the form of ongoing bribes/'protection money' being paid to Star officials to keep himself free for the time being). While he's capable of basic self-defense outside of the Matrix, he's only really at home in the Matrix and never wants to be separated from it - thus the implanted Matrix goodies, the Hardening on the Commlink, and the Cyberskull (getting shot in the head is no excuse for missing the latest posts on Jackpoint!). The Cyberskull has the added advantage of setting off MAD scanners on its own (Headware? No, must've been my head setting your scanner off, see?), as well as being a fun platform for some radical fashion statements. Yes, the Programs are -expensive-, but I think they're worth it. Plus, being able to run 11 programs without taxing the 'link will probably hold me in good stead for quite a while.

Think that this build is pretty straightforward, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, but please, please tear me apart and make some suggestions!
