Notes: Had to spend three extra points from base template to raise Guns (Submachine Gun) skill to DX+3. The design is for a shooter who can temporarily be immune to all bullet which are not the very expensive spell penetrator bullets. Sig Gear would be used for an appropriate SMG. With the spells he can really fill a room full of ammo. Recover Energy is non-optimal spell but 10 points will greatly increase spell casting capability. If the character had more initial points, higher Magery or more weapons skills and techniques would be bought. Action, Gun Fu, Magic and Technomancer were used, but the main character was taken from the template in Action.

This was posted for those trying to figure out character balance. Change skills, gear, and setting from a well-defined setting, Technomancer and you've got something to evaluate with.

Edit: adjusted for spacing. I cut and paste from Word not being sure of size caps for the forum. .
