== Machina Mortality ==
== Machina Mortality ==
An individual Machina exists both within her own body and within the Main Cluster. If she is a regular Machina, her two halves are linked to each other via her Queen, whilst Queens are linked directly to the Main Cluster. If a Machina goes out of range or loses connection from her Queen, her body will enter a read-only state and attempt to restore her connection using whatever means are available. The Machina's personality is not harmed by this, but it often causes the personality to enter a dream state in the Main Cluster until she gets her body back.
Due to the complexity and necessity of both the brain and the Core of the Machina, a Machina's body will die if either of these are destroyed or if the spine linking them is destroyed. When a Machina's body dies, her mind is mostly unaffected. The Queen will upload the Machina's memories to her personality in the Main Cluster, and the complete Machina entity will enter a dream state within the Main Cluster until such a time in the future when the Machina are able to birth new bodies for the deceased to inhabit.
