The Sociopath |
| fault - milestone one (Visual Novel) / int_19851b86 |
comment |
The Sociopath: The original Rune was a textbook example, possessing no degree of empathy or understanding of the consequences her actions have. She eventualy goes so far as to orchestrates her own family's demise by first poisoning her mother and all of the Zhevitz executive board. When the former survives, Rune commits suicide knowing her death would rob what little hope her mother had left. |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: The original Rune is one after the stabbing incident. Selphine is suggested to be one as well at the end of chapter 8, though this may just be King Valher speaking through her using the Path-Down. |

Super Prototype |
| fault - milestone one (Visual Novel) / int_5e782d0c |
comment |
Super Prototype: Rune is one. Played with since she's far more advanced thanks to having human emotions and thought processes, but compensates for it by being self-admittedly physically weaker than the Sisters made after her. Justified thanks to Cid sacrificing his own life in order to grant her her emotions, taking the fine details of how he created her body to the grave with him. |

comment |
Uncanny Valley: invoked Both Rune's are noted to be naturally unsettling. Rune Zhevitz's eyes were noted to be just creepy to look at. The current robot Rune's movements are considered a bit too flawless and calculating, she lacks a proper life-force, and can go without blinking. |

Culture Clash |
| fault - milestone one (Visual Novel) / int_70ade2c4 |
comment |
Culture Clash: When inviting Albas back to their hotel to continue their talk, Ritona and Selphine were both perplexed when he implied that it was "careless" of them to suggest that. This led them to believe that Kadia City— and the Outer-Pole as a whole— was still a patriarchal society. They couldn't fathom such a thing, seeing as Rughzenhaide had eliminated sexism altogether. |
