I'm new to the forums, and largely to shadowrun, so forgive me for asking duplicated questions, searched around a bit, but didn't find much i was looking for.
So here are my questions, largely pertaining to character creation.
1) Are you able to use starting karma points to gain a level of magic initiation? Also, can you use leftover karma at creation to increase an ability under the normal rules for advancement (if i have 20 extra karma points, could i raise edge from 3 to 4).
2)If an adept increases magic to 7 at creation, do they get all 7 power points?
3)If an adept looses 1 point of essence/magic , they are required to sell back the equivilent power points, can you sell back the free active ability granted from option b/c adept.
4)Can the adept ability increase (1pp) version increase an ability above the +4 level, for instance if i had adept wired reflex 3 equivelent, could i also increase reaction further through the ability increase.
Thanks in advance for any help!
