EDIT: This post is now for both Matrix and AndrAIa! (They have the same ability.)

Matrix and Andraia's ability depends on some knowledge of other peoples' canons, so this post is for people to provide that information to us.

Their ability involves taking on a generic form of someone your character would consider an opponent or enemy (if applicable). This is called "rebooting", which they activate themselves when near someone. This could involve equipment and uniform changes, and sometimes full shapeshifting, though they will always retain features that make them recognizable as Matrix and AndrAIa. Typically, if there's gender-specific rebooting options, Matrix will be the male role and AndrAIa the female role. ...But Matrix did reboot as a damsel for comedic effect once.

Examples:
If your character is from a racing game, they'd probably wind up with a vehicle and racing outfit.
If your character is from a war, they'd likely wind up dressed in the generic enemy soldier uniform with weapon(s).
If your character fights alien invaders in his/her canon, Matrix and AndrAIa would probably shapeshift into the alien species.
Sometimes it can be more specific. If your character is Bugs Bunny, Matrix would get a shotgun, a hunting outfit like Elmer Fudd's, and he'd have an uncontrollable lisp.


So please comment here with your ideas on how Matrix and AndrAIa would reboot around your character!

Optional questions:
Would they still be "human", or a different species?
Would there be any physical changes? (hair style, elf ears, etc...)
What sort of equipment would they gain?
What would their outfits look like?
Is there more than one choice of transformation?
Would Matrix and AndrAIa reboot differently? Provide info for both please.
Got any images or wiki links to show us?

Or if you just want to comment to say that rebooting wouldn't work near your character, that's fine too. :D

I'm gathering some phrases from the show, along with what I think they're supposed to mean, so I can get a better handle on speech patterns for Matrix. Fellow ReBoot castmates can reference this as well if they wish.
