Been watching mages get smacked down by stun/physical damage and all that made me think of this…
Magically Thick Skin
Cost: 10 karma
Most people shake off the light love taps they get in a bar from an angry dwarf. You shake off the light love taps of an angry reality straining under your force of will. When you take damage from a drain roll, either physical or stun, reduce the damage by 1, to a minimum of 1.
Thoughts?
Haven’t done a Shadowrun thing in a while. How about a program for your RCC or your deck?
Cushion-reduce all damage the deck/rcc takes by 1.

Here is a spell I’ve been thinking about for a long time and I want to get it out there to see what people think of it. Why not be able to walk through walls in Shadowrun?
No_Clip
(Physical)___________
Type: P Range: Self Only
Duration: S Drains: F + 4 + Resistance Test for each half meter walked through (see below)
Game Genie
(Physical)___________
Type: P Range: Touch
Duration: S Drains: F + 7 + Resistance Test for each half meter walked through (see below)
The old pixel games had some awesome cheats to them. One of the best was the No_Clip where you could walk through walls. Now you can do that in real life! You can’t walk through any living material and you can’t walk through living earth, but any mundane material could be walk through. You will appear on the other side. The force of the spell must be equal to the number of meters of material you must walk through, and for each half meter of material you attempt to walk through, you must roll the Objects Resistance dice pool and add all hits to the drain value of the spell. Each round you sustain the spell, you must make the Drain roll. No_Clip can only be used on yourself, but Game Genie can be used on a character you touch while you sustain the spell.
One more Shadowrun 5e quality that I’ve been kicking around in my head…
A WINRAR IS YOU with your 1337 skills. When you perform a data spike action, instead of each mark increasing the damage value by 2, each mark increases your damage value by 3.
Thoughts?
How about more love for the astral?
You are a master of astral combat with the ability to dish it out and take the hard hits to your soul. When you roll damage resistance while in astral, double your willpower when determining your dice pool.
Thoughts?
How about some love for shadowrun? I’ve been reading about combat in the matrix and astral plane, so let’s fix that up a bit!
Time to put some mind over matter! When performing astral combat, you may instead use your Intelligence instead of Charisma to determine base damage DV.
Thoughts?
Prison are overcrowded in the real world. Why wouldn’t they be even more overcrowded in the fake? And why wouldn’t money hungry companies charge the state to manage the care of someone, and then charge the person for their freedom? Let’s do this!
Ankle Bracelet

You are a known commodity, Omae. You got caught, and now you pay the price. But, the gods, or more specifically the corporate court shined down on you, and now for the low, low price of your soul, you get out a little early. You also got a nice new fancy foot gear, that you can never touch, never take off, and if you play with will land you back in the slammer! You’re a marked man! Individuals attempting to shadow or physically locate a character with this quality in a populated setting receive a +2 dice pool modifier on all tests related to their search as you can now be tracked via the matrix.

One last Shadowrun quality to complete the quartet.
