-====== Mind as Software ======
-By TL 11 it becomes possible to think of a mind as software that runs on a hardware layer. Whether that hardware layer is an organic brain or an electronic machine starts to become irrelevant.
-^ TL ^ Breakthroughs ^
-| 10 | Mind-Machine interfacing becomes possible, with brain implants allowing people to be permanently online |
-| 11 | It becomes possible to upload a mind from an organic brain into an electronic computer. |
-| 12 | It is possible to write to an organic brain, allowing transference of a person's mind from one body to another. |
-At TL 11, uploading allows people to live as information within a computer network, or within a mobile synthetic body. Whether the body is organic or mechanical is not a problem, but the brain itself must be an artificial construct. The ability to re-write neurons with a person's mind patterns is too difficult.
-===== Changing Bodies =====
-When you upload you leave your physical body behind, and hence your physical attributes become irrelevant. In **YAGS**, this means that //Strength//, //Health//, //Agility// and //Dexterity// are not tied to your mental ego. If you download into a new body, you use the physical attributes of your new body.
-The mental attributes of //Perception//, //Intelligence//, //Empathy// and //Will// are part of your personality and are transferred with you.
-==== Character Generation ====
-In a setting where body hopping is common, you do not pay for physical attributes during character generation.
-Most people though are limited to using a physical attribute of '5' - unless they're used to using their body to its maximum, they are limited by their training and subconscious self limitations.
