You may push to;
- You may make a single call of Rend against a foe who pings to this Scan.
Rites Incursus
As data infiltration and retrieval specialists, the Malagra are skilled at both interrogating and overriding the impulses of machine-brains both bionic and fully automated in order to gather information and turn their foes weapons against them using data-spikes to deliver overriding code to their targets;
- After spending a period of time (at least 30s) with a machine you may attempt to retrieve data from it you may ask a ref a question about any information stored on the machine or may push to ask them if you can make the machine do something you desire.

Feedback-Curses
- The next time you use a Rite it fails and your internal firewalls that isolate your primary systems from the deadly machine-curse codes stored in your dataspikes fail, and your mind is flooded with scrap code - you may not make active use of your traits - though still benefit from passive effects such as increased willpower/endurance or effects representing armour or innate toughness that do not require you to make calls or roleplay actions to benefit from - you may still make melee attacks in self defence, but these must be uncalled.. This can be cleared with the Rite of Becalming otherwise it lasts 30s.
- The next time you connect with the Poena Gladii, call no damage and instead suffer the Haywire effect - you cannot use the Poena Gladii until you have spent time repairing it while Recuperating.
