{Fyz's Note: This is my first time creating a character for Shadowrun, so I hope this review can be a dialog to get this character game-ready.

At the first review, I still have 11,400 Nuyen remaining and to formalize my contacts. Also, there were the 5 GMP from Suit's b'day, unless it was just a joke. I'm don't really understand character progress yet. I put general concepts in place for the contacts, but I suspect that will be something fairly significant for this type of character.

If you have any suggestions for qualities, skills, gear or anything, I am happy to make changes that make our games more entertaining. Nothing is sacred except that I am trying to keep this character fairly simple so I can learn Shadowrun.

Note on the Chummer file: Right side, Karma looks to be aligned. But along the bottom of the window it displays having -10 Karma Remaining. I think that means I need to drop something somewhere (maybe in how I setup the contacts?) }

Character Information

Summary

Ex-corporate Project Manager framed by Division VP during a botched competitor extraction. Chose team survival over SOP. Now leverages corporate logistics knowledge, high-class negotiation, and tactical coordination to lead the crews in the Seattle sprawl.

Goals

Finance his lifestyle from back in the corporate days.

Fight the system that tossed him aside so quickly.

Try to use the skills he has to keep his life as normal (cushy) as possible.

Background

<Name> was a project manager for Mitsuhama Computer Technologies working out of the Tukwila, Seattle office.  He started out in the managerial track for young hotshots and was making decent progress.  He was placed in charge of a data extraction mission targeting Horizon, working as coordinator and corporate liaison for the runners.  Once the mission started to get interesting, <Name> buckled down to extract the team, rather than abide by corporate SoP directing him to cut ties with the team.  Two of the runners survived to be extracted <Runner 1>, the team's street samurai and <Runner 2>, the teams cyber hacker.  Once corporate caught wind of the snafu, the regional VP had <Contact 1, middle manager> fire <Name>.  To help cover the record <Contact 2, Jr. Compliance Officer> falsified records to show that <Name> was at fault for project's failure.


Left with little but his condo and few belongings, <Name> turned to the runners he had helped to begin to piece his life back together.  <Runner 1> had a deeper affinity for <Name> having been surprised that a corp man would risk himself on behalf of the team.  So he  took <Name> under his wing and guided him into the world of Shadowrunners, this time from the shadows.  <Name> took on the alias Synergy as both a reminder of his corporate days and a nod to how he hopes to help teams in the future.

Narrative Significant Qualities

{Fyz's Note: For RP purposes, Synergy tries to do business on his word and a handshake. He wants to fight the corporate system, not the world. This translates to honoring his agreements and trying to be focused on the scope of his missions, minimizing collateral human or other damage. He is not yet so jaded that he still tries to get to the non-lethal solution. I thought of going with Code of Honor over SINner, but either would fit the character concept. I could see a string of runs possibly wearing down Synergy's morals, but it's not something I actively have planned for him at the outset.}

Appearance

Clothing

Typically dressed in a tailored suit looking like the aspiring corporate manager-wanna be he used to be. Looks like he might have jumped out of the pages of a Charles Tyrwhitt catalog if such things were around in 2087.
