Blacklight (Street Sam/Ganger)

I'm not an official sheep stomper, just perusing while I wait for my character to be looked over. Just wanted to point out a few things:

  • You have cigarettes listed as a dependent... I think that would qualify as an addiction trait, not dependent. Dependent is for a person that depends on you for support/nuyen.

  • You have an Armor Jacket, but you may want a less conspicuous piece of armor as well, for if/when you need to blend in a little more. You can mod out Armor Clothing or Armor Vest or grab a set of Auctioneer Business Clothes for fancier occasions, or just more subtle occasions.

  • I would recommend a Personalized Grip on your weapons; it's not an expensive upgrade and it raises the accuracy of the weapon by one. You also may want to consider Shock Pads or a Stock in the guns, that will help a bit with recoil.

  • Something kinda cool on the gear page; Pressing the Add Location button to the right of "Add Gear" and "Delete" gives you a slot that you can use to identify where different gear is, like Backpack, Pockets, Home, Car, Duffel Bag, etc. Along that same note, I think if you since you have a medium lifestyle the cost for the duffel and the backpack don't have to be included in your starting costs.

  • You have a Sensor Array on your car, but it doesn't look like you've picked out your sensors yet (Pg. 446 of the Core Rulebook, under Sensor Functions in Chummer). You can right-click the sensor array and select "Add as plugin" to add sensor functions.

  • Think about why your Positive Qualities fit you and not just of them as a stat block. When did you learn another language? Is there a reason your body meshes with cyberware so well? When did you learn this? What makes a character with fairly average mental stats have such good common sense? This is mostly an RP and background thing, not a character sheet thing, but I think it's important nonetheless.

  • Under player name, might want to use your username and not your real name, if you care. Also, a description would be wonderful :) what are they wearing? Any gang colors? Piercings or tattoos? How do they hold themselves, what is their default expression? Just a few things to think about.

  • Lastly, in the description; shooting a younger gang member to get away from danger and proclaiming to be "Looking out for number 1" may not be the most team-friendly approach to a character.

That looks like a lot, but overall I really enjoy the concept for Blacklight. I like that you made him a strong leader as well as a fighter. I like that connection from his backstory.
