This probably belongs in the Character Generation forum, but I just took the time to re-build an NPC from my Shadowrun campaign.
Here's an AR-based Adept Hacker (well, glorified script kiddie), who is a survivor of Seattle's mean streets. I'm actually pretty happy with the way she turned out.

Trust you? Not gonna happen.
That's the plan? Where's the part where we survive?
Have you seen the prices at Stuffer Shack? Now that's criminal!
That sounds… dangerous and stupid. Emphasis on the stupid.
You gonna eat that?
I know a place where I can hide. Not sure I want to share it with you.
Please don't leave me alone with HIM!
Time to go!
Can we please, just for once, skip the part where we have to cheat death?
I've slept in worse places.

So I decided to try out the character creation to have a hang on it when I help my players create their characters.
Here's Hawkhorn, the urban brawl veteran turned Shadowrunner fanboy who is often a mentor to new players in the table, being a bullet sponge that helps the party set up plays.
I am quite pleased how easy was to re-create this archetype in Anarchy.

Of no fixed Address Whisper gets by day to day living in Luxury Hotel rooms, vacant house, unused Air B&B rentals, and empty time share condos. Not that she pays for any of it. Whisper will hack your commlink and run through your personal data and ask "why haven't you called your mother back?" before she shakes your hand. The Matrix is full of things to take, and if people don't want it taken they should do something about it. On a run if Whisper actually gets quiet, it's gotten serious. Violence and mayhem are preferably used for escapes and distractions.
Note: Whisper is a lot like Brooke from Orange is the new Black, just replace the hippy-dippy stuff with a stream of technobable and things you thought were private. Throw in a splash of Tiny Tina from Borderlands and you get the idea.

Orc Gun-Kata Bodyguard. The mechanic here is to "Take the hit" for 0 Plot points thanks to Dog Mentor Spirit and then "Best Served Cold..." with the plot points from Enhanced Reflexes, or play. And he should hit hard enough to hurt, and be tough enough to take several hits for the team. Unfortunately he wound up a little more combat focused than I'd like. Great for Pink Mohawk game though.

I think you can only start with one skill specialty though. Maybe just bump drone weapons.
-
@Aria, I like the drone mesh amp. I think you might consider the +1 for being VR.
The sprite whisperer is good too.

Another adept, this time a little different...based on an SR4 X-23esque adept I made a long time ago!

Oh and another one... Prime Runner this time (seems a little under skilled but those are the rules...)
<<Requiem>> (https://stormy-waters-2075.obsidianportal.com/wikis/requiem)
Think I got the Move-by-wire right...basically add the two amps together but use a single slot?!?
-
Some really nice builds going on in here. Must get round to adding some myself.
@Aria. I also really like you character generator but have noticed that it doesn't seem to have the space for the knowledge skill. Is this deliberate, as I notice you don't seem to use them in your builds, or an oversight?
-
Not precisely an oversight, I prefer keeping knowledge skills as being whatever you think your character would know, having just one is silly! Just my opinion, easy enough for people to list a skill!
-

Definitely an approach I can agree with. Having only a single knowledge skill just feels too limiting to me as well.
-
I don't want to derail the thread too much but I'm considering a house rule where players would receive multiple free knowledge skills. In my head it's something like 5:
1 street or academic knowledge skill
1 professional knowledge skill
1 interest/hobby knowledge skill
1 area knowledge skill
1 extra language
Third Edition also had an interesting rule where if you had an active skill at rating 4+ then you automatically had the associated knowledge skill at Rating minus 3. Obviously Anarchy doesn't have ratings for knowledge skills but I thought it was a good guideline for what the character might know even if they don't have a specific knowledge skill.
Now, back to the thread previously in progress:
@Aria, Hellion's Strength is 6. Damage is Strength/2 damage rounded up, so you could move Strength to 5 without giving up any damage. If you move that die into Logic you would lose out a bit on Athletics but would gain an extra die for extra Perception and Dodging. That might be useful for a Stealthy character who gets up close and personal with danger.
As for Requiem, I believe the consensus from this thread (http://forums.shadowruntabletop.com/index.php?topic=25166.0) is that the Move-by-Wired amp should only be -1 Essence, not -2. That ruling makes sense to me, as it helps balance cybered characters with their Awakened counterparts. Otherwise, a cybered character could drop their entire Essence in one super-amp and not have as much to do with their other amp slots, unlike the Awakened who will happily fill and upgrade all amp slots until their karma runs out.

Love how easy it is to create characters!!!
Here's another offering <warning, naked lady pic attached>

Mr. Anderson worked for the USAF back in '05 during the second korean war, and was installed with then bleeding edge rigger tech. He didn't know it at the time, but he was amped up on aggression drugs. This led to a brutal incident with his wife. After a botched attempt at using drones to assassinate the leader of North Korea, his implant malfunctioned almost lethally, and he was cryogenically frozen in the hopes the government could recoup their investment in the future when medical technology had improved. In the break up of the US years later, the program was lost, and eventually his and many other cryo-perserved bodies were re-awakened by a sadistic opportunist. With the aide of his daughter, who is now many years older than he is, he escaped and is seeking to find a spot in the sixth world. Free of the aggression drugs, and reunited with his long lost daughter, he has become much more optomistic and is looking for a few 'Hood runs.

You can have more than one attribute at max and Will 4 doesn't provide you any benefit, so boost that Logic to 6?
You've got 8 different skills plus your Knowledge (which I love btw). You need to drop 3 of them barring house rules.
There is no penalty for defaulting in Anarchy and you already have Agility 6, so you could drop some of your 3 weapon skills and bump your rigger skills up.
If you're bothered specialities are cheaper than skills post-chargen, although I suppose it doesn't matter unless you want to arm your Gopher.
I assume you're wearing a Lined Coat/Kiss the Cook Apron, so all your totals check out. Welcome to Anarchy :)
