Well I was duped and convinced by a friend to let him join in our game. He said he knew the rules and how to make a character. So I let him go for it with a few extras to help him catch up to our already established players. Higher avail (12) and rating 8 and about 200k more to spend.

he comes up with this (not exact replica, but going off of memory)

Mongo The Troll Tank (Not like we needed another samurai, but he wanted it) :cyber:
Some things are Alphaware, but he's within the essence range, and suffers a bit of overstress, which he said he would counter with RP and taking medicines ingame :

)
Body 11 (+1 trollskin +2 Cyberlegs +2 titanium Bone Lacing) for a total of 16
Quickness 3 (+3 Bioware) for a total of 6
Strength is 9 (+3 bioware) for a total of 12
Intelligence is 4 (+2 bioware) for a total of 6
Willpower of 6 (+1 from enhanced attribute, +1 from pain editor) for a total of 8
Charisma of 2 (no change)

Relavant skills
Polearm 5/7 (Stave)
Biotech 4
Shotgun 5

Other notable cyberware
Blood Filtration system 8
smartgun system
Internal Air tank

His armor is all enhanced with Nonconductive.
his staff is dikoted, and he uses a large riot shield
shotgun (I think it was 10S damage) is smartlinked.



Now Kill him.
or at least hurt him or I'm just going to have to refuse him his character. Which he actually did write up a page worth of background on.
