-Starting skills: +SMGs are only slightly weaker than ARs, in exchange for being able to be used one-handed. Your Ingram Smartgun is one of the strongest SMGs available, though it's a bit more difficult to properly accessorize.

-Starting gear: +==== Progression ==== 
-<code> +The first program you should create (or obtain from another decker) is programming suite. This will help you with all your future programming needs, including creating higher rating programming suites.
-Worn: +
-worn over shoulder A Neophyte Guild duffelbag +
-worn about body    a London Fog 'Professional' overcoat +
-worn on body       a plated armor vest +
-worn underneath    form-fitting body armor III +
-worn on arms       a pair of forearm guards +
-worn on thigh      a thigh holster +
-worn on legs       a pair of black BDU pants +
-worn on feet       pair of white trainers+
  
-Inventory: +While the programs that you start with are enough for early Matrix missions, there are other programs that you may wish to pick up sooner rather than later, such as Evaluate to help with finding paydata and Decrypt to help with encrypted paydata and hosts.
-a Neophyte Guild housing subsidy card +

-Starting deck: +In the physical world, you will want to find a gunsmithing workshop so that you can replace your Ingram Smartgun's default gas vent 2 with an improved gas vent 4. This will let you hit targets while firing in full-auto 6 just as easily as when firing in burst-fire or semi-auto.

-Persona Programs+==== Build ==== 
-Bod:      6 +The pre-built archetypes were designed using the standard custom character creation rules, with the intent of providing generalist builds that are fully functional immediately out of character generation. There is a trade off in that such builds are less efficient in the use of their chargen points and resources. For this reason, as well as to improve the new player experience, they have been permitted up to 20k additional nuyen in their build, plus a free electronics kit, pocket secretary, phone, subsidy card, ammunition, and 2 points of brawling skill (not listed below).
