Watch Leverage.
Hitter, Hacker, Grifter, Thief, Mastermind.  The perfect Shadowteam.  ;D

Hmmmm... now that's got me thinking of how you'd actually write them up in Shadowrun. How do these sound?

Eliot = Ork, Phys Adept or possibly an Augmented Adept, with a Geas against using guns.
Hardison = Human, Technomancer, probably an Info Savant.
Parker = Human, Gillette-style infiltrator, with Poor Impulse Control (Compulsive - High Danger) focused on stealing.
Sophie = Elf, Pornomancer Adept Face, probably has Big Regret, though I'm not sure what it is.
Nate = Elf, Charisma-based Manipulation Mage / Face, with SINner (Criminal) and Records on File.

I'm also thinking they'd probably be something like 450 BP characters with 264 Karma on top of it, based on 44 runs (aka, episodes) so far, averaging 6 Karma a "run".

Hmm... I may have just found the opposing team of runners for my game's PCs.
