These rules are not an attempt to convert everything about Shadowrun into DnD5th but to instead capture the fell of the setting.

BASIC HOUSERULES

Character Classes: all characters (not just Heroic characters) gain the following: base Proficiency Bonus, a Feat at 1st level, then another Feat every 2 levels afterwards (3, 5, 7, etc.), and Attribute Bonus of +2 to one Attribute or a +1 to two different Attributes every 4 levels, starting at 4th (4, 8, 12, etc.). There are seven Heroic Classes: Adept, Face, Fighter, Infiltrator, Magic-User, Tech and Tough. Heroic characters gain three core Talents at 1st level plus one additional talent every odd level after that (3, 5, etc.) and a Bonus Class Feat every even level (2, 4, 6, etc.). These feats must be chosen from the Class Bonus Feat list.
Heroic characters gain Karma Points which act as Hero Points from the Optional Rules in the DMG (pg. 264) but see below.

Character Level Proficiency Bonus Character Level Bonus Heroic Level Bonus
1 +2 Starting Feat Talents(s)
2 +2 -- Bonus Feat
3 +2 Feat Talent

Karma Points: Heroic characters gain 5 + ½ (round down) their Heroic class levels in Karma Points. You can only spend one Karma a round. Karma points add 1d4+1 to any 1d20 roll (attack roll, saving throw, skill or ability check etc.) and are used to activate certain Talents. Unspent Karma Points are lost when you raise a level (and gain your new levels’ Karma points). Certain Talents and Feats and grant you additional Karma Points, high dice to add to your d20 and new uses.

Talents, Feats and Skills: Using the basic ideas of skills from DnD5 but renaming a couple, adding new ones and new usage. Talents tend to be of greater usefulness and abilities over Feats which are much less powerful (more common). Unless specified elsewhere the DC for Skill is found in PHB pg. 174.
Also not using Tool proficiencies. These have been replaced by new skills. See Skill Update below.
Proficiency: Armors include Light, Medium, Heavy and Shields. Weapons include Simple, Martial (as from the PHB), Light Firearms (pistols, machine pistols, etc.), Heavy Firearms (rifles, assault rifles, shotguns, etc.), Heavy Weapons (machine guns, grenade launchers, etc.) and Super Heavy Weapons (tank cannons, rocket launchers, heavy missile launchers, etc.).

Circumstance Bonuses: Unlike standard DnD5, there are bonuses from various talents and feats, but the same ‘types’ of bonus do not stack. Basic types: equipment, insight, magic, moral or rage.
