Feat software (often called "featware") is usually embedded in the robot's central processor or "brain" and can be salvaged after the robot is destroyed. | Feat software (often called "featware") is usually embedded in the robot's central processor or "brain" and can be salvaged after the robot is destroyed. | ||
- | To write feat software from scratch, a character must possess whatever feats the software is designed to emulate. (For example, a character without the Dodge feat doesn't know enough about dodging opponents to create a program to emulate the feat.) The character obtains the necessary soft-ware components by making a Wealth check against the software's purchase DC. He must then succeed at a [[Computer Use (Skill)|Computer Use]] check (DC 30) after investing 12 hours in the software's creation. | + | To write feat software from scratch, a character must possess whatever feats the software is designed to emulate.

**Feat Prerequisites:** Regardless of the quality of its feat software, a robot cannot emulate a feat if it does not meet the feat's prerequisites. For example, a robot with a Dexterity score lower than 13 gains no benefit from a Dodge feat progit, since the Dodge feat has a Dexterity 13 prerequisite. | **Feat Prerequisites:** Regardless of the quality of its feat software, a robot cannot emulate a feat if it does not meet the feat's prerequisites.
