Sorry for the delay in responding — the latter part of February was unusually busy, and then food poisoning/a stomach bug sidelined me all last week. I’m only now catching up with things.

 

Good questions!

 

1. If you’re going to use the AI as a character (be it PC or NPC), build it as a character, not like a Computer. So he has all the Characteristics, Skills instead of programs, and so on. You may need to use Complications to reflect the drawbacks of having a robotic form.

 

2. In this case, I’m assuming you mean that you want to buy an AI (we’ll call it MegaBrain) that rides in a robotic body (called RoboForm) and “runs” it. Here again, the best and simplest way to do this is just build it as a character, using Complications (and possibly some specific power purchases) to represent the robotic form. But if you absolutely, positively, have to have the two things separate — perhaps because MegaBrain won’t always ride around in RoboForm — then you build MegaBrain as the character (or as an AI if you must) and build RoboForm as a Vehicle for him.

 

Make sense? If I didn’t cover what you need to know, please PM me or post a follow-up. You might also want to check out The Ultimate Vehicle for ideas and other information that could help you create the character you want.
