I wonder if it is possible to make an effective character who is totally above the law. I would like to have zero restricted or forbidden gear, which makes me think that an adept would be the best choice, yet aren't magical characters themselves restricted (requiring a license to practice?), but basically all magical gear is restricted or forbidden anyway. Of course riggers and deckers are out, but I suppose Technomancers may be allowed since I'm not sure if they need to be registered or not.

As for gear, Combat Knife/Club, bows, flashpak grenades and tasers are about all you can use. It's bizarre that Shock Gloves and Stun Batons are restricted, so sadly they are out of the equation. Cyberlimbs are fine as long as you don't get any stat enhancements (though added armor is OK), there are a few useful cyber/bio choices, and plenty of gear to choose from.

Can a useful character actually be made following these rules?
