It has been said by FASA (namely Mike, but...) that the character should
not have cyber. I specifically wrote and asked Mike about this a while
back when the Cyber/Regen thread came up last Summer.

Basically Mike said that there was no official ruling on it yet, but his
feelings were that anything with regen should not have cyberware because
the two would not play nicely. The other major reason he pointed out was
that both Shapers and Vamps have an inherent power that, if they used it,
would completely screw the cyber. One is the Shapers regen, the other is a
vamps mist form.

Anyways, I'll leave the subject alone beause you all mostly know my
feelings on the subject.
