[X] My Assistant

[Elfie]

The decker I'm running now is also a Card Gambler (thinking of giving him the addiction flaw), so his Icon takes the persona of an 1800's Western-style Poker player, complete with monacle, handlebar moustache, suit-vest, and derby hat.

Attack: Derringers hidden in the sleeves, or Improvised attack of the Ace of Spades card growing into a large bladed weapon.
Browse: Sprays the card deck into the air and follows the cards that don't fall to the ground.
Analyze: He uses his monacle to focus on the target.
Shield: A Poker chip hovers in front of him and grows to the size of a large shield to block attacks
Armor: The cards fly around him in a cylinder pattern to absorb damage (cards can fly away to represent degradation).
Sleaze: He just pulls his derby down over his eyes and hopes no one notices him
Validate: He deals a hand of 5 card draw, one set for him, one set for the grid. On a success, his hand beats the grid's.
Spoof: Manipulates the deck of cards in a way that acts as the controls for whatever he's trying to spoof.

Two of my more unique icons & deckers:

Mobl Zoot: A zoot suited gundam F95 that carried a violin case and wore a fedora and spats. Made very mechanical noises when he moved. Had a tommy gun attack program and used lapel flowers for access keys.

Yuri Null-A large and disgusting database of scatalogical humor. Originally based off Pee Wee Herman's talking toilet. What else would you expect from a russian ork?

[Tyrrell]

Jack a jack in the box when ever he load a new utility his icon closes and then SPROING!! he comes back with the appropriate (clown themed) utility.

[Phaeton]

Thor, God of Thunder, for a dwarf decker. Black Hammer would be...Well...A big black hammer. As for the others, besides attack, I'm not sure. Maybe summon thunderstorms for the Smoke utility?

There are two deckers in the team I currently GM for:

One uses a star-shaped hover-drone as her icon, pulling utilities out from inside the drone with retracting mechanical arms - attack programs are missiles or machine guns.

The other one uses Cernunnos from JM Linsner's 'Dawn' comic - but most of his programs are stolen, so instead of suitable iconography he runs around with a pair of Sandler TMPs for his attack program, floating iceblocks as shield, and a bunch of other mismatched icons. Of course, his handle is S8 - Section 8...

I have an NPC decker going by the handle MrSanders - his icon is classical Winnie-the-Pooh and his reality filter makes every system look like the 100 acre forest, where paydata are jars of honey or honey in trees, IC takes on various forms from obstacles that appear in the books, etc

Wasn't it Mr. Saunders?

They were only NPCs so I didn't flesh them out all that much but here are a few Iconographies I've used:

Cyberpede-This girl had a real obsession with all sort of bugs and her flat was filled with stuff like antfarms, tarantullas and scorpions in aquariums, spiderwebs all over the place, etc. Her favorite bugs though were centipedes, so her icon looked like a cross between a centaur and a centipede: human from the waist up but with a long multi-legged lower part, oh and she had these long antenae on her forehead. Whenever possible her programs had a buggish theme (Trace would involve following an ant path, Attack programs would appear like some sort of poisoned stinger, etc).
Going to her place was a rather scary experience with all those poisonous bugs all over the place, especially after Chicago...

Gears-This guy used a reality filter that transformed everything into some sort of huge steamdriven Babbage computer full of gears, chains, levers, perforated cards and other stuff. (Anyone who's read Gibson's the diference engine knows what I'm talking about). Whenever he decked a system it'd be like entering a huge warehouse-sized steampunk "computer" and pulling some levers or jamming a steam valve.

The Genie-This girl used an Arabian Nights sort of filter, she was dressed like a belly dancer and carried a lamp in her hand. Obviously whenever she performed a system op seh'd rub her lamp and a Genie would appear and do whatever she asked of it. And she also had a Flying Carpet of course.
