Say I want to get past a receptionist, so I hack his datajack/internal commlink/'trode net and subscribe my (hotsim equipped) commlink. I then run a personafix that makes him very trusting and gullible, sell him a story about forgetting my ID code, and cover my electronic traces as I walk away.
In other situations I use other 'fixes. If I'm intimidating someone I make them a spineless coward. If I need to get information out of someone I turn them into a garrolous sot. 1) Is this possible? 2) Could a Personafix include a prohibition against noticing the fact that you've been fixed? 3) What sort of bonus would be applied to social tests after installing a suitable moodchip/personafix on somebody? |
