Character Creation Walk Through

Okay but you have to give them numeric values of 1 to 6 which come out of your 22 point allotment -- note I have not mentally gathered together all your dice pool bonuses as such I cannot recommend numbers to you but an 8 or more Dice Pool for your primary skills that should be sufficient to begin with -- while an 11 or better would be awesome but not at the expensive of only having 5 skills -- hopefully you can get maybe 9 or so skills based of the ones I and kenesperanza suggested

Creating a character sheet is pretty straight forward once you have finished your character :)

Just fill in the Shadowrun 5e character sheet they have within this forum under Characters

You might want to make various notes to remind you of what each thing does and what all your bonuses are but other than that its pretty straight forward

A Dice Pool = Attribute + Skill + Any Bonuses

Okay how’s this?
6 Pilot Aircraft
4 Aircraft Mechanic
5 Gunnery
4 Pilot Ground
3 Ground Mechanic

That’s a gut check on the character more than anything

Okay sounds good but you might want a minor adjustment and here is your info thus far condensed

Pilot
.... Aircraft 6 + Rea(6)
.... Ground 4 + Rea(6)

Okay you have a +3 Dice Pool for Difficult Maneuvers and +5 Dice Pool for Stunts with an additional +1 Dice Pool at High Speeds so I would suggest dialing these two back a bit

Pilot
.... Aircraft 4 + Rea(6)
.... Ground 3 + Rea(6)

Netting you +3 Skill points

Mechanic
.... Aircraft Mechanic 4 + Log(5)
.... Ground Mechanic 3 + Log(5)

Okay you have a +3 Dice Pool to Juryrig and a +1 Dice Pool for everything else as such I probably leave those as is

.... Gunnery 5 + Agi (3)

No bonuses to this leave it as is --- so you have 3 Skill Points you can use so I might go with

.... Computer 1 + Log(5)
This covers the basics of computer use for your character which can be very handy (perhaps even necessary) as a mechanic/pilot just hope you do not encounter a Hacker who wants to override your drones or be sure to install high security in them

.... Perception 2 + Int(4)
If you do not see it coming you can be rather hosed so you need something in this one which can be augmented with 'ware or onboard vehicle systems (I think)

However in the end it is still your call but I would look at Computer in regards to being a Rigger I think that is almost an essential skill but I could be wrong. If you would rather have a 5 in Pilot Aircraft you can drop your Perception to a 1 and buy augmentations to compensate but I think you need at least a 1 in Perception to start with

I hate to do this, especially with all the effort you've given DeJoker, but I've recently had a family emergency come up and won't be able to even touch this for several days. If I'm holding anybody up, feel free to cut me loose for the sake of the rest of the group. This is way more complicated than I expected, and I'm not sure how much time I'm going to have to learn a new system over the next couple of weeks.

Well you take care of RL as it is much more important than a game -- and hopefully we will still be here going strong when you get back ;)
