Hmmm...

I've been reading through the Paranoid Animals of NA, and saw the
Speed Samurai archetype...

What a wussie... :P

Now, think about that: a physical adept (or, better yet, physical
mage) with at least 1st grade initation (so he can have the +2D6
bioware and the max. adept initiative increase (+3D6) for IIRC 5
magic points...). Now, that gives him a 6D6 initiative, but that's
not all... Now, add an increase reflexes +3D6 spell, for a total of
9D6 initiative. And now Critterform him into a tiger or a panther,
for an additional 2D6 to initiative. Voila, a whopping 11D6
initiative, for an average roll of 33, whitout counting the reaction.
Make the critterform force 6, cast with 6 magic pool and 12 successes
(Karma and Team Karma), that adds +6 to all physical attributes of
the tiger, increasing the reaction by 3 (at least).

(I think I should be shot, to miminalize the suffering of my
immediate entourage. Heh. :P )

PS: Oh, yeah, the physical mage could cast spells in critterform.
Talk about a spellvindicator... :>

MUHAHAHAHAHAA!

(Of course, one could say that in critterform, the bioware bonus does
not apply... In that case, skip the critterform unless you want to
engage in HTH, or rather HTP combat. Still, you've got yourself an
adept with 9D6 initiative. Add the raise reaction power, raise
attribute spells and you've got one fast fragger. Also, he should be
rather high-graded init to mask all that Christmas lights, err..
spell locks. :P Or, while we're at it, give the initiate physad a
beta or delta-grade wired 3 instead of the bioware - if you allow
spell and cyberware stacking. Which is not appilcable in any sane
campaign...).
