Message: <blockquote data-quote="Urizen" data-source="post: 4458100" data-attributes="member: 11673">Hiya!Thanks for your interest in Interface Zero.You can purchase cybernetics/bioware for our character in a couple of ways.First, you can purchase them outright, paying the cost for the upgrade (what we call cybernetic/bioware implants).Or, you can take an Upgrade feat, which gives you 3 upgrade points to spend on cybernetic or bioware systems.You can even combine the two, using upgrade points to offset the cost.You can even opt to save your upgrade points and purchase more upgrade feats later until you accumulate enough points to purchase what you want.Regardless of how you purchase the cybernetic/bio-mods, you must pay a tolerance cost, which reflects your body's ability to handle the integration of these systems.To determine your Tolerance score add 10 to your total Fortitude save (10 + Base Fort + Con modifier + any relevant feats).As you put more cybernetics and bioware into your body, your tolerance rating drops, and you start suffering penalties such as retarded healing, deteriorating personality, etc...You can also purchase feats which allow you to improve your tolerance rating (Improved Tolerance), so there are ways to offset the damage done to your hero's body.Various types of cyberware (masterwork, superior masterwork, etc) have lower invasiveness ratings, while others (usually substandard or blatant cyberware) have higher invasiveness ratings.It's a trade off, but balances quite nicely. All in all great system.</blockquote>
