I'll probably copy the character sheets into the OP once I have the time. Our group has just been shot at by a gang of Halloweeners, and our Troll adept is in pretty bad shape :/

You are awesome.

Okay, hacker sheet is just about done. I'll finish it and the quicklist in a couple hours; I've got an actual Shadowrun campaign in a second. Here's what I have so far.
Name: Audrey Behan
Street name: h4k/ and Red Five
Race: Human
Age: 26
Appearance:
Red prizes herself on her good looks. When she's not running, she makes a point of keeping her head shaved, her lips and brows dyed, and her wardrobe impeccable. Even the datajack at the back of her head is engraved.
Role: Hacker extraordinaire!
Bio: Being born SINless is both a curse and a blessing. For Audrey, it was mostly the latter. Sure, even in CalFree it's hard to get a job, somewhere to live, or even Matrix access without a System Identification Number, especially when you're on your own, but at least you're off the grid. When you're not being monitored by the authorities, you're free—ish. People are crazy about celebrities in FreeCal, and people are always looking for the freshest, fastest hacker to get dirt on them. There's money in dirt. And apparently, it's not risk-free. You forget to edit the access log, people catch on. That's how Audrey ended up with a brand new Criminal SIN. It's like being SINless, only worse. And when you're in deep drek, where do you go? Seattle.
Ares aren't very squeamish about criminal SINs, as long as they're not from the UCAS. And they're very aggressive in their recruiting. Audrey'd barely been across the border for a week before she had corporate housing, dental, the whole shebang. Of course, her ass was being monitored 24/7. Coming from a life of relative freedom, this did not suit Audrey well. But getting into a corp job is a lot easier than it is getting out. Once you sign the contract, they own your hoop. It took a long time, changing files a little bit at a time over several months, but Audrey was finally able to give 'em the slip, just for a second. And a second was all she needed. She plunged into the shadows where her life might be in danger, but at least she's free. It's been three years since she got out from under Ares' watch, and she thinks the cost of looking for her has outweighed the benefit by now. But with the corps, you never know, omae.
Cyberware:
Cybereyes with low-light, thermographic, vision enhancements, smartlink and flare compensation
And of course enhancements to speed up the hackin':
Attention coprocessor
Encephalon
Reaction Enhancer
Gear:
Clothes can be replaced, guns are dirt cheap, and commlinks for daily use are no good after a week anyway. What's really worth hanging on to is a ¥33,000 Novatech Airware 'link with a custom OS and ergonomic software. It's fast as it is, but when working, Red connects a fiberoptic cable from the Novatech to her datajack. Once you've tried hot-sim, you're never going back for long.
Other:Speaks less-than-decent Japanese.
Red Five's a bit of a media junkie. At any given moment, she's most likely got at least three different feeds and forums on AR. Don't worry, it probably won't distract her. Probably.

Yeah, you could easily go "Hey, I've got this drekhot blueprint for a new combat drone. If you want it, I'm gonna need some answers."
I agree! I think the team hacker would be happy to help Thovren sell the paydata.
True. So I think Thovren better not make a copy of those blueprints if he values his testicles :D
I think you're thinking of Mistuhama, Ollum. Mitsuhama and Saeder-Krupp are the really draconian ones (and the latter has an actual dragon as the CEO).
Some fixers also act as the Johnson, I guess—or at least a proxy for the Johnson. Depends on how private they want to be. Some prefer Matrix meetups, but I think we're gonna go with a classic: the backroom of a nightclub.
Well, the fixer just sets up the job. I just haven't figured out which corp wants in on the action.
So let's just say, um, Renraku. The runners won't know who they're working for when they get the job, but I'm sure there'll be a few hints ;)

I concur. Let me get working on that.
Still looking! So far I'm going with this:
