Hello all,

In potentially starting a new campaign up this year in a new town and all that, I've polled the audience and they're mostly new-comers to the SR universe. To that end, I've considered this: start them a little lower than your average runner and help them to build their characters up. While their characters learn about shadowrunning, so do the players!

To that end, I was playing around with the NSRCG and different numbers of points and karma to create new characters. I'm interested in what others have done to create a different class of characters with respects to character generation. Discuss?
