If the target is a jumped in rigger, the Fear could apply to their drone self/body, and cause them to run away while still jumped in, but what if the rigger is in a vehicle, and the source of the fear is in the same vehicle?
Options I see:
- Fear the matrix itself: log out, jack out is safety
- Fear the current location / node in the matrix: run somewhere else in the matrix
- Fear the user commlink node in the matrix (physically closed to the Fear source)
- Fear the physical source of the Fear: jackout then physically run away
SR4 context currently, but similar could apply to other rule sets.
