Once a Character exceeds their Humanity on their Cyberpsychosis Tracker, they roll a d10 and deal with the results.

• 1-4 - nothing
• 5 - visible physical damage
  • a brief seizure (1-2 turns) or a nosebleed (d6)
• 6 - withdrawal symptoms
  • scratching, twitching etc. as well as a strong desire to install or use Cyberware; until this need is met, the PC suffers -2 to their COOL and WILL
• 7 - psychological degradation
  • Recurrent nightmares, paranoia, signs of psychosis and even schizotypal behavior, strange beliefs, hallucinations
• 8 - psycho-physical outburst
  • Mild Cy-rage episode, like a verbal conflict, impulsive or aggressive behavior, with immediate control after a brief moment of unawareness
• 9 - mild physical episode
  • Cy-rage episode where severe antisocial behavior is expressed, especially of a violent, aggressive or hostile nature; from this state, the player can struggle to regain control of their character
• 10 or greater - severe & violent episode
