The Lifestylequality feng shui is worded somewhat weird.

it says: provides +3 dice to Artisan and technical skilltests.

first of all Artisan is a technical Skill.

secondly. Which technical skills does it really apply to. There are many skills listed as technical and some of them would make this quality quiet powerful

as there are:
Cybercombat
First Aid
Computer
Data Search
Software
Hacking
...
(every skill a hacker needs)

most of them are Matrix-skills, so one may argue that being VR, hacking a Node doesn't count as "working from home"

yet it's unclear. to me at least.

Yes I want to know this too. A "fox spirit" concept needs answers.

Agreed. I'm still waiting for the other Erratas for Augmentation & Unwired. They just stopped with Street Magic.

A follow up on the Distinctive Style question - What are Advanced Character Options exactly? Is there a definition of what constitutes Advanced Character Options? Read loosely, everything in RC can be considered an Advanced Character Option, in read strictly, it can mean virtually nothing apart from those Qualities that confer Distinctive Style. Can we have a clarification?

Can someone fix the thread title please?

How much is Global Fame actually supposed to cost?

Thanks to someone!

Regarding deviating costs:

I think the Erased quality (RC pg. 97) should say "...information that she wishes is stripped...". It uses "burnt" instead.

I might as well drop in here the response I got from Tyger Eyes about shifters/drakes and what happens when one shifts to animal form:

Shifting form should be a single complex action.

If the shifter's Body is greater than the highest Armor value (regular clothing has armor rating 0), then the clothing is ripped apart and destroyed during Shift. If the shifter's Body is lower, then they injure themselves and are entangled in the armor. The DV is equal to the Armor rating. Since shifters regenerate, it isn't a huge issue, but extracting themselves might require some sort of Escape Artist test, or shifting back to human form. And likely is accompanied by much laughter and pointing of onlookers.

I'm doing some poking around in Runner's Companion for some other stuff and found the following errors:

pg 97 - Fame - local is 5BP, national is 10BP, and global is 20BP in the description, but range is 5-15BP

pg 98 - comma "," at the end of the Global Fame Examples. Missing entry or just supposed to be a period?

pg 98 - Alphabetical: Lightning Reflexes is after Linguist

pg 102 - Alphabetical: Albinism is after Amnesia and Asthma

pg 109 - Alphabetical: Sensory Overload Syndrome is after Spammed

pg 112 - Under Celerity: Spelling. Musculature

pg 113 - Functional Tail - 5BP and 10BP but range is 5-15BP

pg 113 - Alphabetical: Defensive Secretion is after Dermal Deposits

pg 113 - Alphabetical: Glamour is before Electrosense

pg 114 - Alphabetical: Goring Horns is after Greasy Skin

pg 116 - Astral Hazing - catalyse is catalyze

pg 118 - Alphabetical: Impaired (Attribute) - after Progeria

pg 118 - Impaired (Attribute) - 3rd sentence, ammount should be amount

pg 183 - Alphabetical: Bi-Polar is after Big Regret but on pg 102 it's before it.

pg 182 - Two entries for Codeslinger

pg 182 - Two entries for Exceptional Attribute

pg 182 - Two entries for First Impression

pg 183 - Two entries for Obscure

pg 184 - Two entries for Gremlins

I assume the new karma costs from SR4A replace the Karma costs in Karmagen character creation system.

Yea, I think that was mentioned as an update to the Runner's Companion.

Carl

Figured out what the problem is:

pg 182 - Missing Codivore

pg 182 - Missing Designer

pg 182 - Missing Drone Pilot

pg 182 - Missing Emulate

pg 183 - Missing Improved Realignment

pg 183 - Missing Snooper

pg 183 - Missing Spawn

pg 184 - Missing Corruptor

pg 184 - Missing Fragmentation

pg 184 - Missing Real World Naivete


A couple of the duplicates I posted above might have been editing to add the missing entries from Unwired to the lists that wasn't completed.

Carl

A few more:

pg 184 - Missing Martial Arts positive quality

pg 113 - Functional Tail - Last sentence says "The Versatile Tail quality" and should be "The Functional Tail quality".

pg 182 - Animal Pelage is missing the 'P' in 'BP'

pg 182 - Chatty is missing the BP cost and the page number is in the wrong column

pg 182 - Two entries for Aptitude

pg 183 - Shiva Arms says 15 or 25 BP but description has no comment about 25 (assumes 15 or 30 based on description)

pg 183 - Tough as Nails is missing BP

pg 183 - Astral Hazing missing plus in parentheses

pg 184 - Ghost in the Machine - says 5 or 10 but description indicates 15BP only

pg 184 - High Maintenance - Implant should be part of the text

pg 184 - Mania/Phobia - Table values don't match the range. Should be 5 to 20BP.

pg 184 - Prejudiced - missing BP

pg 184 - Neoteny - missing 'P' from BP
