These tables were adapted for our character generation system from the original article on spending time in prison and the IPC from Interface 1.1 - the actual final result bears little resemblance to the article in question, but does include a bunch of the possible side-effects of prison as they described it.

Each year in prison a character rolls 1d10 on the following table.

1-3 Nothing Happens This Year 4-7 Luck, Good or Bad 8-0 Make A Friend or Enemy

LUCK Roll D20 + Luck. If the result is 19+ then you had good luck, otherwise you took a hit.

Good Luck (d8) 1 You undergo Braindance Training. Get +2 to an INT or TECH based skill so you have a usefull skill in time for your release. 2 Go back to school. Gain +2 to Education / General Knowledge or a Specific Knowledge skill. 3 Hard Physical Training. Gain +2 to one of Endurance, Strength Feat, Athletics, Swimming, etc. 4 One Year's Hard Labour. You work your ass off for a year breaking rock or working in one of the nasty physical jobs they shaft bad prisoners with. Gain +1 BOD or STR. 5 You pick up a new vice. Gain +2 to one of Streetwise, Pharmaceuticals, Pick Locks, Pick Pocket, Gambling, Resist Torture/Drugs or Intimidate. 6 Someone owes you a favor. He's on the outside now too. 7 You learned of a weapons or equipment cache from someone else on the inside (probably left-overs from a heist). You collected it as soon as you were let out. D10x200eb value. 8 Early Release, return to the normal Lifepath Table and roll again for this year.

Bad Luck (d8) 1 Horribly Scarred either while being interrogated, punished, or in a fight or brawl inside the prison. -1 ATTR 2 BrainBurned. You have been brainburned into not performing whatever it was that sent you to jail. Make a cool roll at -2 whenever you attempt to break this BrainBurn. If you fail you cannot break the conditioning. 3 Ingrained Hatred of Authority Figures. (Make a cool roll at -2 to not freak when authority comes down on you or to attempt to deal with any authority figures in day to day activities such as security checks, etc) 4 Hospitalized (for an injury or for some mental problems) for 1d10 months. 5 Drug Addiction. You got hooked on something they've been smuggling inside and you addiction has followed you to the outside world. 6 You were the subject of a tailored disease or chemical experiments without your knowledge or consent. (-1 REF or BOD) 7 Serious Injury - you lost a limb. If you can pay for it from your starting funds you can replace it with a cyberlimb, otherwise you had one grafted to replace it - not necessarily of the right skin-tone, etc. 8 Collect a Debt. You managed to pick up a sizeable debt this year (getting cigarettes, for bribing guards, maintaining your habbit, etc). You still owe D10x300eb to someone who can collect even on the outside.
