Humanity is a measure of how well you interact with the world and other people in it. People with very low
Humanity STATs have a lot of problems in human interactions. They may become sociopathic, withdrawn,
disassociated, or even homicidal. If your Character's HUM drops below zero, that represents the death of your
Character's emotional life; they slide into a state called cyberpsychosis, in which aberrant traits like homicidal
mania, or mental disassociation can occur. While the addition of large amounts of cyberware (more on this later.
See pg. 230) most often triggers this state, other traumatic situations can also push the Character over the edge.
For every point of Empathy the Character has, they gain 10 points of Humanity (HUM). For example, a
Character who starts with 5 EMP would have 50 Humanity.
As your Character undergoes Humanity Loss (mainly, but not always) through installing cybernetics, they
lose points of Humanity. When you lose Humanity points you will sometimes have to lower your EMP Statistic.
This happens every time the tens place of your Humanity value is lowered. For instance, a Character with 44
Humanity has an EMP of 4 until their Humanity is lowered to 39, at which point their EMP lowers to 3. For raising
Humanity with therapy go to pg. 229.
