Good Morning everyone,
Since I bought the SR5 Corebook, i'm desperately trying to create a Technomacer, but whatever I do, I don't like how it turns out in the end. Everytime it seems I'm missing something important. And I begin to slowly lose my mind over this. @__@
Now ... certain aspects of the character are set in stone:
1. It has to be a dwarf
2. The Negative Qualities are all part of the Story, so I wouldn't want to change them.
Story in short terms:
He is part of a small Deckergroup in Seattle, known for "AR-Vandalism". None of them are especially good at what they are trying to achieve, nor do they have appropriate Hardware to do so. But still, they want to be known, they want to matter in the Matrix. He strifes for a better life for him and his brother (NQ Dependents, and also a Decker) and, at some time, defeat a GOD in Matrix Combat. (I know, it's impossible... but that's what dreams are for, aren't they?). Using Psyche gives him the feeling of having everything under control, something he desperately needs.

My biggest problem, right now, are the skills I believe. Being at least "almost" as good as a normal Decker, and being able to Create a few sprites costs so many Skillpoints. I tried to push Skills to A, but it didn't work out as I hoped.
When it comes to Hosts, I don't think I could even start to think getting into one higher than Rank 4, and even that is probably just a matter of luck. As for the streets, a machine sprite should ensure my survival a bit. Right now I'm thinking about switching to a light pistol (might make more sense for this character).
What would you change about this Character?
Regards,
Dai
