I would say there not a lot of difference between now and then.

This time, Malraux arrived from a cosm that already had a high level of technology. If anything, the Cyberpapacy and the GodNet itself is a bit more powerful because most everyone was already plugged in and using the net.
Over the last 90 days, the GodNet has truly become Big Brother, storing anything anyone has seen, heard or searched for. Also, a resistance had built up because of this.
In general, the current cyberpapacy really is the upgraded, 2.0 version not just the tech, but also the attitude. Oh, and rumors have begun to reach the resistance of "missionaries" in the service of Malraux being seen in various cities in Brazil...
Right now, the only other specific Cyberpapacy archetype is the Renegade Priest who uses miracles instead of magic. The Cyberwitch uses Alteration and Divination magic, but nothing would stop you from learning Conjuration magic as well.

Renegade Priest (Speciality - Miracles)
Not every preacher in the Cyberpapacy has fallen under Jean Malraux’s sway. Many still believe in a far more benovelent and forgiving deity. These “renegades,“ as the Antipope calls them, resisted his totalitarian regime, faced the Inquisition, and now fight on the streets with the resistance.
It wouldn't be hard to update any of the oTorg archetypes though (Cyberware requires a Perk to buy it so that it functions, but is disconnected from the GodNet). In addition, the character creation overall is simple enough too to create the type of character you want, and just use everything else as flavor. :)

Scrambler:
quote:
Diminish
Diminish
Axiom Level: 10
Skill: Alteration 12
Casting Time: 1 action
DN: Target’s willpower or Spirit
Range: 40 meters
Duration: 3 rounds
Diminish reduces one of the opponent’s attributes (chosen when the spell is cast) and related skills by -2. Separate castings may affect multiple attributes.
Spellcasters mime an action related to the affected attribute while casting—sneering to reduce Spirit, pretending to stumble if reducing Dexterity, etc. Reducing Strength or Spirit does not reduce Toughness or Shock.
Success Levels:
Good: The penalty is increased to -4.
Outstanding: As Good and the target cannot roll again on 20s when using the affected attribute and all its related skills.
Enhance
Axiom Level: 10
Skill: Alteration 12
Casting Time: 1 action
DN: Target’s attribute
Range: 40 meters
Duration: 3 rounds
This spell enhances a single attribute of the caster or an ally by +1. Multiple allies may be enhanced at the same time so long as all are within range and the caster uses the Multi-Target option. The DN is the attribute to be affected—the better someone’s ability, the harder it is to improve on it. Different attributes may be increased with separate castings. If the caster increases Strength or Spirit, it does not increase Toughness or Shock.
Mages pantomime some aspect of the attribute to be increased while casting—cracking their knuckles to improve Dexterity, flexing their muscles to enhance Strength, and so on.
Success Levels:
Good: The attribute is enhanced by +2.
Outstanding: The attribute is enhanced by +3.
Scrambler
Axiom Level: 9
Skill: Alteration 10
Casting Time: 1 action
DN: Standard (DN 10)
Range: 50-meter radius
Duration: 10 minutes
Used primarily in the watchdog regime of the Cyberpapacy, scrambler obscures everyone in the affected area from all security and surveillance systems.
Captured video and voices become blurry and unidentifiable to such devices, and targeting bonuses from smart ammunition and augmented reality HUDs are negated.
Success Levels:
Good: The Range is increased to a 100-meter radius.
Outstanding: The caster’s video and voice are completely erased and the duration increases to an last hour.
