Well I do understand most of it.
Pulse Weave, CarnivoreGold and MonaLisa are the exceptions.
What I do understand is that I have to run around butt naked under my Mortimer of London Great Coat.. I assume you ignored that fact and let me wear zoe shirt and trousers without incurring armor penalty?

About Face being demanding.. well I think its less demanding then a hacker and I woudnt want to play a sam without some good backup hacker to defend my implants.

If you have someone else that wants to play face I have no problem to sidestep. I do have an idea for an mundane weapon spec with a bit more then a mild addiction.

Pulse weave is basically a flash pack built into clothing.  Carnivore and Mona Lisa are a couple programs for voice and face recognition.

The assumption is that he has regular clothing on under his coat.  Little stuff like that is covered by a character's lifestyle.

If you want to run the face, you've got it.  It's just due diligence to make sure a guy's up for it when he says he's new to the game.  Nothing intended by it.  But ,if you want to build a character that's more your own, that's cool too.

Kontact: the background I'm thinking of would have Sundance born into an organized crime family and have ties to them - I'm thinking the Vory v Zakone would make the most sense (since Gnomes are mostly central europe/asia minor, also, the russian mob is cool), but I wanted to check first that this would not derail your plans. I can switch to a different syndicate, or drop it, if it would mess up the campaign.

Well, if Sundance has ties with the Vory, and Motoko has ties with the Yakuza, that's two of the major syndicates covered...

Close ties to a syndicate is cool.  Were you planning to do it as a contact or Made Man?

Finally done. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T5mxxX0DYGoybNO3y2cOECh3no5QbEeLfFOeKw6oWR4/edit?hl=en_US Sundance, Russian Killer Gnome

I plan to give it an extra once-over, but I figured I'd make with the posting.

It looks like we're running with Switchback as the primary face.

Noticed a gun license there.  Both your weapon and the drone's weapon are forbidden from private ownership. 
This might be problematic since you have no infiltration ability and the weapons are gigantic.  For instance, that large drone isn't going to fit in your car.  The Steel lynx is a big bastard of a drone.  Arsenal p.102 "Large Drones (Body 4): These drones range from the size of
a motorcycle to a small car."

It's not a subtle thing.

Looks good by a quick check.

You did overpay for Willpower.  Should only cost 30 since you've moving willpower from 2 to 5.  40 bp would take it to 6 Will.

So that you know, my reading is that cyberlimb armor goes on cyberlimbs not in them.  From p.344 under Cyberlimb Enhancements "Armor enhancements installed on cyberlimbs are both Ballistic and Impact, and it is cumulative with all forms of worn armor."  So, if you've got armored limbs, you won't be able to disguise them as normal.  You could dusguise them under heavy clothes like ski gloves or large boots, but it's not going to hide under leather and canvas too well.  Might affect your concept, but might not.

Also, it'd be cool to give the theives' code a look for RP purposes.

Well, that's why she has the sling and a lined coat, as far as the rifle goes. Eventually, she'll pick up a shotgun for more close-quarters work, but she'd prefer to stay in the car, or better yet hack in from a remote location, and let her drone be her physical presence.

As for the drone, yeah, it was never going to be in the car. More like following in an escort role, like you see cops do with the president's limo. If I had more money, I'd have slapped chameleon coating on the vehicle and the drone. If it is going to be an issue, I can dump the houseboat, and use the money to get a more substantial vehicle that can hide the drone?

Yay, more points. I'll figure out what to do with them. EDIT: After thinking about it, I think I'll actually still spend 40 and get Willpower 6.

Sundance generally wears Holowear, so it's not a huge deal. When he's going somewhere as himself, he's fine with being an obvious killer cyborg; that is what he gets paid for  ;D I'll make a note that his "looks like a kid" disguise includes heavy boots/gloves. That does mean it will only really fly when it's cold, but it's a fairly secondary thing.
