I'm in the process of starting up a SR4 campaign, themed around the idea of players being able to come and go freely, and having something of a revolving cast of characters.
My FLGS had SR4A and Street Magic, but I'll probably be getting the other core books from Amazon. What, if anything, does the Runner's Companion contain that's a must-have for character creation (besides Albinism and Night Elves...)? If it helps to have an example, I'm currently building a Fox Shamanic Adept.
Secondly, has anyone found a good substitute for Wordman's character sheets? I've always preferred character sheets that were crisp, clean, and efficient.
