+Sleeves
+=======
+When VitaLife unveiled their Persona Core technology that allowed people to digitize
+and transfer their consciousness into other vessels, human bodies became nothing more
+than 'sleeves' for the human consciousness. This technology thus became known as
+"Sleeve technology".
+
+Sleeve technology unlocks two different gameplay features:
+
+* Duplicate Sleeves
+* Re-sleeving
+
+Sleeve technology is unlocked in :ref:`BitNode-10 <gameplay_bitnodes>`.
+
+Duplicate Sleeves
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Duplicate Sleeves are MK-V Synthoids (synthetic androids) into which your consciuosness
+has been copied. In other words, these Synthoids contain a perfect duplicate of your mind.
+
+Duplicate Sleeves are essentially clones which you can use to perform work-type actions,
+such as working for a company/faction or committing a crime. When sleeves perform these tasks,
+they will earn money, experience, and reputation.
+
+Sleeves are their own individuals, which means they each have their own experience and stats.
+
+When a sleeve earns experience, it earns experience for itself, the player's
+original consciousness, as well as all of the player's other sleeves.
+
+Synchronization
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Synchronization is a measure of how aligned your consciousness is with that of your
+Duplicate Sleeves. It is a numeral value between 1 and 100, and it affects how much experience
+is earned when the sleeve is performing a task.
+
+Let N be the sleeve's synchronization. When the sleeve earns experience by performing
+a task, both the sleeve and the player's original host consciousness of N% of the
+amount of experience normally earned by the task. All of the player's other sleeves
+earn ((N/100)^2 * 100)% of the experience.
+
+Synchronization can be increased by assigning sleeves to the 'Synchronize' task.
+
+Sleeve Shock
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Sleeve shock is a measure of how much trauma the sleeve has due to being placed in a new
+body. It is a numeral value between 0 and 99, where 99 indicates full shock and 0 indicates
+no shock. Shock affects the amount of experience earned by the sleeve.
+
+Sleeve shock slowly decreases over time. You can further increase the rate at which
+it decreases by assigning sleeves to the 'Shock Recovery' task.
+
+Re-sleeving
+^^^^^^^^^^^
