			*Becoming infected without an existing magic score causes you to become an aware with 1 magic. You are never able to initiate but can otherwise do the things an aware can do. If desired you can instead pay the costs associated with latent awakening at the time of infection to awake as other forms.

	*Sometimes, purchases are made due to a misunderstanding of the mechanics behind it.

Please open a leadership ticket for the Council to consider.

			====Requesting Exceptional Changes====

			In rare cases a run may end up with unique circumstances that Shadowrun's rulesets aren't equipped to accurately portray. While gamemasters and players are mandated to try and stick within the rules to the best of their ability, the gamemaster or an individual player may open a Council ticket to request an alteration that has '''sufficient thematic justification''' and weight. Generally these can range from a customized boat that comes pre-equipped with a generator and benefits from Brand Loyalty: SpinRad to a changeling with several electroreceptive mutations being able to listen to radio channels with their mind. These changes should '''not''' be sought out for core build components, do not ever form precedents based on previous permissions, and require a 7 day minimum voting period as well as majority vote.
