 +MATRIX
  
 +Awake currently has a fully operational Matrix that exists throughout
 +the game. Deckers are the only people other than gods that have access to this
 +world and all its riches. Once you find certain rooms that have linkups to the
 +Matrix, you can use a datajack and cyberdeck to jack in. The better your
 +cyberdeck, the better your chances of survival and success in the Matrix.
 +The Matrix is invaluable when it comes to sneaking through security or 
 +grabbing information, because in 2064, everything is stored on computers.
 +If you need the dirt on someone, or a pass for a Maglock at the local 
 +police station, only a decker will be able to get it for you.
 +
 +When you jack into the Matrix, your real body will remain by the terminal
 +unchanged. Your mind however will go on a trip unlike any other as the cyberdeck
 +simulates your experience. This means that although you might be unlocking Lone
 +Star's undercover payroll files, someone might be kicking the shit out of
 +you in real life. Since you NEVER want to be tracked down, you will almost
 +always jack in from a public terminal. Because of this, you will always need
 +someone you trust by your side looking after your body while you're away. In
 +this way, a decker relies on the group and the group relies on the decker.
 +
 +In mud terms, the Matrix is probably one of the coolest things you will ever
 +see. It is essentially an alternate reality for the player, as you surf
 +through rooms that don't exist. You will fight and avoid mobs that are simple
 +computer programs, and will open doors that are made up of numbers. You will
 +also find data in there, that when you jack out, will be worth a lot to the
 +right person. As you make more money and gain a bigger reputation in the
 +Shadowrun world, you will be able to increase your abilities in the matrix.
