One of my players designed a burned out mage with 1 Magic. He was a Grade 1
Initiate, with 6 points of cyber/bio and 3 Geasa (I think). The character
was really really good, actually. He was basically a sammy type, but he
could Mask his aura and cast a whole host of utility spells (which tended to
have low drain, for obvious reasons). It was quite an innovative character.
