Most of the people in my group don't play strange characters... I think
I'm a little odd for playing a super-techie... But, hey, having 14 dice
for a Biotech test when the street sammie just got cacked off is kinda nice.

Yes, I played Clerics in AD&D. =) ("C'mon, man... please, just cast cure
light wounds on me... please!?")

The physad in our group wants to play a Dwarf spider shaman when his
character cacks off. He wants to do it for the sole purpose of saying
that he runs a Dwarf Spider Shaman. Personally, I'm cooking up rules for
a Goat totem just in case my character takes the long ride.

Oh, I forgot... Our physad's first character was a former Docwagon
medic. =)
