Uploaded conscience

An uploaded conscience (often shortened to UC) is the composed conscience of a previously living Dalmer (or rarely, other lifeforms) that has been brain scanned. Uploading one's conscience is a choice, but can sometimes be done in cases where a victims body is failing. An uploaded conscience is the thoughts, history and personality of a previously living organism that continues to exist in code form. These personalities can operate machines, and can be affected by psionics.
Uploaded Consciousness is a form of Android, the other being artificial intelligences.
== Procedure ==
Brain scanning digitizes the conscience, allowing mind to interface directly with machines through mysterious essence translators. The end result was that UC's control their exoskeletons and machines as a natural extension of their bodies provided the machine has the appropriate hydraulic-psionic mobility systems. Once inside the machine, the "door" out of the machine is shut, the UC will remain in the machine for the rest of their life, until the uploaded conscience holder is removed and placed in a new machine. 
===The door===
In cases where a great number of UC's must be created at once, the door is a technology that transfers an UC from a body to a digital existence, this destroys the physical body, but does not exclude the generation of Anima. 
== Powers ==
UC's have the power to interact with and control machines, not dissimilar to the power of souls, though lacking the added power souls give to the objects they possess new functions.
=== Technology manipulation ===
Uc's can create, shape and manipulate technology and technological constructs, computers, robots, hardware and other devices. Manifested as the ability that allows mental interface with computer data.
User can control the flow of intricate machinery, and assemble or disengage their programming at will and operate most technology at distance. Uc's can also program a certain function in others to change their pattern of behavior or take control of them.
=== Intangibility ===
Being composed individuals, UC's are incorporeal, and exist only as data. UC's that have applied and obtained citizenship are confined to an Anthro-Pod, a robotic shell that limits their return to an existence as data. 
== Employment of uploaded consciousness ==
UC's generally continue their lives as pilots. They are generally grievously wounded veterans retrieved from the battlefield, too injured to undergo cyborgization and do not want to chance a second existence as an undead. UC pilots are renowned for their skill in battle.
== Mechanics ==
UC's, like androids are confined to their frames, as they are generally not trusted to be put on the array. They can however, warp their conscience to other areas through the usage of the Aether Web
