so i've been looking for stats for a garrotte and am unable to find any. what stealth ninja runner would be without one? and i've been thinking about the implications of using the magic fingers spell for strangulation; can't even find shadowrun asphyxiation/choking rules. Is there a martial arts maneuver for it?

if only my character were a bloodthirsty murderer, then i could use magic fingers to garrotte... think of it, invisible floating hands wrapping a razor thin wire around the neck... heck, add a small power source and presto! vibro-garrotte.

Messy, but effective.

Any thoughts?
