Exotic Melee Weapon (monowhip), or you will cut yourself badly. ;)

With Body/Reaction/Willpower 2 you better do not get mixed up in combat...

You can have Rating 4 SINs during character generation (it's an error in the book, they have the same Availability as Licenses).

Bye
Thanee

Just in case, but the SIN can be rating 4, it was errata'd that the multiplier is rating X 3 not rating X4 for availability.

Personally, I'm not a fan of "Inept: Archery". As a GM I would much rather see a skill that might actually come up in play some day like Swimming, Pilot: Ground Craft, Con, Navigation, or Survival. None of those is likely to completely screw you over, but has a chance to actually come up. Archery is never going to come up for your hacker.

[Jestercat]

I understand your attitude, Mal, but SR4 seems like a game of stupid negative qualities at the moment. I'm not a fan of it, but with such a dual-natured character, I'm already at a disadvantage. This is one reason I usually won't touch SR4 with a ten-foot clown pole...

Edit: Also, my GM is a bit of a newb, and won't accept any of the errata or corrections. He wants to keep it straight out of the stuff he has in print, on him. If he stumbles on the errata, then perhaps they'll end up used. Somehow I expect the premade smuggler to end up in, since it's almost a 450BP character...
