Dirk is probably my favourite SR character to appear in FASA published
stuff. Merely because he's not some shit-hot runner with tons of cybermods
or magical skills. He's somewhere between 'ordinary guy' and
'shadowrunner', and to me, it represents the majority of the shadowrunning
community. The non-elite.

Haven't read Changling, but I would say 2XS probably is my favourite.
