Editing Sovereign: The Autonomy (section)

===Malfunctions===
General things what can go wrong with a Sovereign. Usually Malfunctions are temporary and can be fixed or repaired.

To repair a Malfunction, it depends on what kind of Body you are on. If you are using a non-biological Body, use a Repair Item (Dexterity + Crafts + equipment) roll on the Body. If it's a biological Body, go to sleep for at least 8 hours, or wait until the scene is over to fix the Malfunction. Biological Bodies are more resilient that way.

Some Malfunctions:

'''Lag Spike''': You experience a series of lag spikes. Your software only notes very few amounts of missing time, but your Body stops responding to your commands in those moments. Very disastrous when driving, of course. Dexterity gets a one-dice penalty.

'''Command Misparse''': Some commands to your Body are misinterpreted. Maybe it's a signal of 'lift left arm', but your body reads it as 'lift left leg'. In severe cases, 'lift left arm' becomes 'trigger self-destruct bomb'. Roll 1d10 to determine severity of this Malfunction.

'''Sensor Trouble''': One or more of your sensors are malfunctioning or temporarily becomes offline. Perception rolls get a penalty of one dice.

'''Power Drain''': Your Body's energy supply is compromised, and thus the systems aren't getting enough power. Stamina penalty of one dice.

'''Power Spike''': You receive sudden boosts of energy, at inappropriate times. Could cause overload of circuitry and accidents. Exaggerate an action, roll 1d10 to determine severity.

'''Deja Vu Command''': Some commands get repeated unnecessarily. Very annoying and energy-draining if that 'lift left arm' signal get repeated 20 times in one second every hour, isn't it?

'''Memory Leak''': Your memory banks are corrupted in some places. Sometimes you forget somef- somesh- argh, what was that thing again? One dice penalty to Memorizing and Remembering.

'''Reduced Motor Output''': Your motors can't reach their maximum output. One dice Strength penalty.

'''Lost Partition''': One of your partitions have become inaccessible. 'Freeze' one PP point (as in, you can't use it, but it's stored. Until you fix this Malfunction you can't use that PP point.)

'''Processor Trouble''': Your processors are running inefficiently, thus causing unecessary PP drain. 'Burn' one PP point in your PP storage every two scenes unless it is fixed.
