I was thinking about setting up a run involving the team extracting a Pretender, like from the show, which got me to thinking, what would a Pretender's stats be? I was also thinking about a book I read several years ago. I think it was called Project Genesis, but I can't remember for sure, and searching online has provided no results. It was about a project, L7, IIRC, to bring the dead back to life. It kind of worked, but the subjects were missing the emotional center that had made them human. They were pretty much pure intellect with a sense of survival and no moral compass. I thought that would be a nice element for SR, but I don't have the book anymore and I can't remember details for setting up the stats. So if anyone can help with wither of these, cool.
