Villain probability
3%
Basis: the canon. No (research/18); KARR is the villain twin.
By sound alone it would score 50%. The canon knows better.
Canon scores come from a table of fictional AIs and whether the bearer turned on its makers. Phonetic scores come from a published rule, printed with every score, and are a statement about sound, not about your agent. How the sound is scored.
