If you click that link you'll see a video of a real world physad who is genuinely from the 80s. His name is Radford Davis and he lives in Florida. You will experience the ferocity of Improved Ability: Unarmed Combat and Improved Ability: Edged Weapons providing at least 6 extra dice. You'll also notice Improved Reflexes III and Traceless Walk. Basically, the way I see it, this video provides the archetypal model for how SR physads work, and especially how when they use their physad powers they tend to emit 80s music. The next time I create a physad for play, in fact, I think I'll just re-create Mr. Davis down to the last point...assuming I have enough points starting out to buy all those powers and initiatory levels!
