I am a full, 400 BP character now! Yay! 20 points into the Ork race, 200 into Attributes, 40 points into Edge, that leaves me with 140 points for skills, nuyen and contacts. I tend towards violence, so I'd have to be either an adept or have some 'wear to pump me up. So, how do y'all viewl me, as the magic man or the machine man? Let's make the character that is Mikey!

Actually, your title just states 'Runner'. For all we know, you could be some Forrest Gump-like dude.

Damn! That's saying something this year. Almost a double insult there. I'm wounded to the quick, and may have to retaliate as soon as I can find where I put Tie Domi's phone number.

Tie Domi is busy with women troubles. Besides, I'm an ork, remember? I fear no Leaf goon! I am a 400 build point shadowrunner! Domi's lucky if he got half of that! I fear no Athletics 3 score when I have both melee and ranged combat skills!

You still don't get it. There is no 'shadow' in your title. You are merely a bipedally ambulating pedestrian who has used up his action for the turn by 'Running'. No 400 BP for you ... yet. Post more ... earn Karma.

At least you're moving. I'm still just a target that stands there waving dumbly at the nice men with guns.
On a side track, is it just me or does Fortune's title say immoral elf? I could have sworn that it used to be immortal elf.

Nope! That was when I was a mere neophyte runner. I am working toward prime runner, but hey, 400 BP is good.
Fortuney, methinks you see only what you want to see...would you rather see this 400 BP ork running toward you or away from you?
Snowy, if I was a jogger it woulda said so. Stop tryin' to make me look bad. I don't need your help for that.

Bah, I'm a moving target. We're worth more points than targets because we're harder to hit and that makes us more likely to get shot at. I have to move because if I didn't then the shooting targets are coming down on my ass to rack up some karma. I have practically no offensive options besides persuading two shooters to hit each other and even then it doesn't count me as the killer so there's no reason to risk my neck. I just gotta keep running until my movement karma tops out and I ascend to shooting.
It's a tough life being a moving target.

I think I'm gonna have Snow Fox as a contact...someone to launder and invest my illicitly gained funds. I think she'd have a connection 3, but probably just a loyalty 1 until I started pumping in the cash. There's 4 more BP's gone.

http://forums.dumpshock.com/index.php?showtopic=17972Here's a link to the last time this discussion came up, to save some rehashing.
IIRC, Moving Target is 500, and it's a rank increase at every 500 for a few ranks.
I of all people should probably know this. But hey, once you're the Fisty of Doom, Immoral Elves and the like become irrelavant.
So you've got a while.
