I have the Shadowrun Companion but I cannot find any information in it about the Otaku. I wouldn't even be looking for them if they weren't listed on the chart for creating a character (costing an additional 30 building points no less). I figured they would be listed with the other special races like shapeshifters, ghouls, and metavarients, but no luck. And they aren't even listed in the index.
I have no idea what they are so it really isn't that important, but with a 30 point cost I'm assuming that they have some hefty abilities/stats/etc. to make them worthwile and I am curious what those are. Any help would be appreciated. |

Check Matrix. They are to deckers what adepts are to street sams. However, they are not magical except by GM whim and in the excessive arguments of a few who post here.

Could you perhaps give me the page # that they are listed on? I read through the table of contents twice trying to find them but couldn't. I also flipped through the book trying to them to no avail.

Matrix p.133.
For your information, Matrix is a Rules Expansion book. |

Thanks for the help. I looked over the rules section (or rather glanced at the 4 full pages of text) and decided that maybe they can wait until later =).
