First let me say I can;t believe I'm defending even the idea of the rocker
archetype, which I've always thought terribly lame. I must be too much of a
devil's advocate for my own good.

As opposed to all those other, *normal* shadowrunners?

Most wouldn't be in the big leagues. Not even *real* shadowruns, at least not
at first. More along the lines of Dirk Montgomery... and he gradually gets
brought into the big leagues, as he adds cyber & skills.

Speaking of which, anyone out there run a game starting with low-level proto-
runners who gradually advance to real runners?
