Hi. This is my first hacker/combat and only my second 4th edition character. Any feedback or comments are appreciated and thank you ahead of time for reviewing the character.
A few quick points before the review. The character is conceptual in nature. In terms of improved qualities I wanted one mental (analytical thinker), one physical (double jointed), one emotional (guts), and one social (made man).
Brief Biography: Paris Tintagel is the younger brother of Tir Paladin Alexander Tintagel (Lugh Surhand's bodyguard). Young Paris was loyal to the former monarchy based government of tir tairngire. Lacking the magical ability to become an adept, or magician. Seeking to serve like his brother, Paris also trained in a few combat skills and used some of his families wealth to become infused with some cyberware and bioware. He also dabbled in learning about eletronics and hacking. The 2064 came, Paris was 18. He took to the streets fighting the factions that were attempting to bring down the old council of princes. During the fighting, Paris was defeated and thrown in prison as an enemy of the new Zincan regime.
-He eventually escaped (either through a jailbreak or political means, not sure of this yet). Eventually he was recruited by a Russian Vory outfit (not sure which one). The Russian's backed by Evo sponsored the rest of the implementation of Cyberware and Bioware into his system. Along with helping him focus on hacking/programming. Paris now serves as a shadowrunner who works with a Russian Vory outfit in Seattle. All of the whilte attempting to escape and evade the extremist factions of the current Tir government who are looking to hunt down anyone associated with the old regime.
