	In rare cases a run may end up with unique circumstances that Shadowrun's rulesets aren't equipped to accurately portray. While gamemasters and players are mandated to try and stick within the rules to the best of their ability, the gamemaster or an individual player may open a Council ticket to request an alteration that has '''sufficient thematic justification''' and weight. Generally these can range from a customized boat that comes pre-equipped with a generator and benefits from Brand Loyalty: SpinRad to a changeling with several electroreceptive mutations being able to listen to radio channels with their mind. These changes should '''not''' be sought out for core build components, do not ever form precedents based on previous permissions, and require a 7 day minimum voting period as well as majority vote.

			==== A Note on Exceptions for Astral / Wild Reputation Qualities====
			A single bad action does not incur [[Rulings/Miscellaneous#Astral_Reputation_(1-4)\|Astral Reputation]], nor a single good [[Rulings/Miscellaneous#Wild_Reputation_(1-4)\|Wild Reputation]]. It should be narratively appropriate to the character and negotiated with the player and GM involved to mutual satisfaction. In the event of a dispute over if either quality is warranted, please open a Thematics ticket for final determination.

			Other things not listed here may at times also result in a change of attitude, but unlisted aspects should be consulted with Thematics at first and preferably be agreed upon by both GM and the player. Gamemasters should also warn players if an unlisted action could threaten to worsen their relations with spirits before they take it. Simply binding spirits isn't enough to warrant astral reputation, disrupting spirits in combat is a commonplace occurrence, spirits often engage in combat on behalf of their summoners and these things do not in and of themselves warrant astral reputation

	Opposing forces in prime runs have no listed TL or dice pools. As a GM hosting a Prime run you are expected to have a full working knowledge of all the game's systems, as well as the ability to provide a challenging experience that will push your player's abilities to their limits. Prime runs are not to be taken lightly and contain serious risk of PC death or retirement.		Opposing forces in prime runs have no listed TL or dice pools.
