Hey Chad,
I don't think having a Runner who receives a bonus for visiting Dante's
Inferno is a bad idea, it's just that I kinda figured out what they created
the card for. And that would be 1)to counter Shady Manager 2) to counter
The Price of Fame. These cards give you a drawback to having Fame on the
board and receiving from it. So, instead of just receiving Fame and risk
either your opponent taking your Fame or having to place a Burnout token on
them, you take them to Dante's to perform instead. So, here is somewhat of
an idea I came up with and may just use at my Card Creation website at
http://pages.prodigy.net/neorazorboy/srtcgccz.htm down the road.......

Wallace - Rocker
Dwarf Runner
Social-1
2/4 4¥
Wallace receives +1 on dice rolls made at Dante's Inferno.

Here you have a tough enough Dwarven Rocker ( who is at least better than
stupidhead Adam Bomb ) whose only anti-Special ability as far as Rockers
goes is the same as Kromagnus and Ripper....can't be hit by The Price of
Fame. He receives that bonus roll ya mentioned and would be the first Dwarf
Runner with Social. Nice for most decks, plus Dwarven themed ones. Lemme
know some thoughts on it or other ones! Laterz....Raz
