You are reading that correctly . I went with a triple-entendre. 1) Literal cyber-heart 2) Loves electronics and mechs 3) she has a cold aloofness / not tender-hearted or warm-hearted.

I'm happy to use the 3-phases, unless you'd rather skip it. I'll put what I have to start and you can let me know Emily Kehrer - (feels like she should have a callsign, but I'm undecided on what) Emily is a Silicon-hearted mech hacker (high concept) who is Staying alive, one pill at a time (trouble). Her skills at exploiting and sabotaging the electronics and software components of Bio-Frames, as well as dumber 'tin-can' mechs and drones, make her a valuable asset for the Liberation Union. It's almost enough to make up for her sharply calloused way of dealing with her squad-mates. Almost. But Emily doesn't really ca

That's fair. If pilot and mech's minds are too similar then there's no reason for the Bio-Frames not to be completely independent.

I feel like the BioFrames' urges would be more primal, almost feral. A pilot might try to urge their frame to a more romantic, erotic encounter. If the relationship is good, the frame will enter those strange, restrictive spaces, just like the pilot will be will to engage in raw, primal rutting. I don't think I made it clear that I think the idea of these shared fantasies, or virtual sexual encounters, is a great thing. I do think the actual tentacle interface can be gratifying as well, but the pilot and BioFrame have enough Synch (+2 or +3?) they can transcend to that shared dream space. While there, they can, in addition to have

The easy answer with FATE is to give each character a Stress Track that's just Sync (In addition to the regular Physical and Mental Stress tracks). At zero Stress, all is well. Acting against the interest of the mech (going into dangerous situations, inciting jealousy, etc) can build Stress and Consequences just like getting punched or intimidated can hit Physical and Mental Stress + Consequences. The issue with this idea is it might get tricky if one person is trying to juggle the loyalty of multiple mechs? Unless that's not something we're worried about. We can also just give the squad it's own super-character-sheet that sits one
