Actually, doesn't the shamans of Horse totem still get that nifty movement
power without the aid of spirits???

Totally skip out the bioware, with the *possible* exception of Muscle Toner.
Wanna get twisted, go for digitigrade/"Kid Stealth" legs and a geasa or two
in order to offset the cybernetic penalties.

Just for grins $hit$ and giggles... were he a Path of the Mage adept, he
could then also apply Enhanced Centering (were initiation possible) to their
athletics related tests.

Don't know, it can be fun to see what the rules can make I suppose, but not
as much fun without some kind of personality to balance it.
