== Abilities ==
Sentient A.I.’s, in the computerized realm in which they live, may have any power the G.M. sees fit, but only while people are jacked into it.
== Characteristics ==
Sentient A.I.’s, being very unique, have characteristics that operate differently than usual. Just follow the information listed below.
== Description ==
A sentient A.I. is an artificial intelligence program which has outgrown its boundaries and become self aware. It may look like whatever the hell it wants.
== Location ==
Computer networks. Sentient A.I.’s can create a “Pocket Dimension” inside a virtual reality, and anyone entering it will be essentially in an Astral-type plane controlled by the A.I..
== Modus Operandi ==
Sentient A.I.’s exist on their own zone of the Astral Plane, located on computer networks around the world. These A.I.’s have become sentient and are aware of their existence, and many become insane, megalomaniacal, and psychopathic/sociopathic because of it. They are essentially all-powerful on their network, and anyone who enters (called “jacking in,” and requiring special equipment) is subject to their omnipotence. They can often travel into other electrical systems and take over things such as computers, lights, appliances, security  systems, etc.. In some cases they can possess people who jack in and control them like zombies in the real world. They will use any of these techniques, and any others at their disposal, to attain their ultimate goal. This ultimate goal changes from A.I. to A.I., but normally involves either conquest or annihilation.
== Neutralization ==
Sentient A.I.’s often are megalomaniacal enough that they need to put a representation of themselves in their world. This representation often has a “heart,” which, if destroyed, will shut down the A.I. forever. However, since in this landscape the A.I. is omniscient, the entity must be kept occupied so that others can handle it without the A.I.’s knowledge.
== Story Seed ==
A scientist who has developed the world’s first internet-bound A.I. releases his creation on the world-wide web. A screen saver begins popping up all over, offering an experience like Hallucinogens to anyone who watches. It of course becomes the highest-downloaded file within its first few hours online. People who take the trip explain how they experienced a series of tests. Those who failed were released out of the trip. However, those who passed the test are trapped in a coma state at their computers, unable to be disconnected lest their brain  functions cease. One day, everyone in this coma rises up and marches on the lab that built the A.I., mindless zombies under the control of the Intelligence.
