Hi there
I'm wondering if its possible ( or allowed) to create some kind of aspected magician who is also an adept. Using the point based system, this would cost 50 points ( aspected 25 + adept 25 ). thanks |

Nope. But you can gimp a mystic adept.
Er, well... Anything is possible with the rules of a specific game. Just not AFAIK is it possible under the rules in MitS. |

Well, there are rules for Mystic Adepts (also called Physical Mages, or Magician's Way Adept). Same cost as a full mage (30BP).
Not sure why you picked 50BP as a number (yes yes, adept + aspected magician. Still wonky), but the official ruling is 30BP. And you can aspect them if you so choose, but it isn't any cheaper than playing a non-aspected one. |

Well, at first I wanted to be a mage AND an adept at the same time, but I guess its overpowered :P
btw, adept magician, they still have to 'buy' the 2pts power 'astral perception' to astraly perceive, right? |

Correct. Rules for Magician's Way adepts appear on p.22 of Magic in the Shadows.
