With a 12 stealth you could hide in the middle of a open park,
with no groud cover, and still not get spotted by the 100,000 people looking
for you. I don't know about the rest of the people on this list but I think
such a huge stealth score deserves a THWAP..

A'Deus.

PS : I supose you have iced Doc Raven, Wolf and Fast Jack as well.

Hold on a minute: the only reason he has that high of stealth is because he
spent 1.25 points of his physad points on stealth, giving 5 dice. With a
concentration in urban stealth, that's 12 dice. And anybody who tries to
hide in the middle of a park is a f*ckup. That's not what stealth is about.
And anyway, what's wrong with being good at what you do? Deckers get huge
decking pools, mages get HUGE magic/astral pools, so why can't a physad be
good at stealth? BTW: THWAP back-atcha.

Example: A rigger with a concentration in Yellowjackets (8) gets the gran
total of 17 dice, assuming a control pool of 9. You could easily get that
higher.
