One thought on “Episode 24: Creating Interesting PCs, or Blue Glow of Player-Characterhood”
Noticed you put a link for the Shadowrun 20 q’s from dumpshock but you could also find them in runners companion for 4th and I would guess when the 5th ed character options book comes out you might find them there too.
