The recent debates about magic in this list, plus several references
to astral protection in TK, have set me wondering about the amount
of magic in the Shadowrun world... Are mages and shamans common, in
your interpretations of the Shadowrun setting, or are they rare?
I once read an article where it proclaimed that, although the rules
decreed that magic was not a regular occurence, players come across
it quite often...

Also, this reminds me of an argument I had once with a friend
regarding dragons, their prolifericity or otherwise, and their
general intelligence. The argument was sparked by the adventure
DragonHunt, which features a young dragon which has had a data-
jack fitted. We argued over how common dragons are, and how
intelligent they are, and how powerful they are, magically.

So, how common is magic in your gameworld, and how often do your
characters/players interact with dragons or, indeed, other
paranimals?
