Crash() is a Function of the Transistor. It is derived from Red's Trace, and is obtained immediately upon her sign-in to the Transistor.
Crash() is both an offensive and a status effect inducing Function. It deals minor damage, after which it leaves Process Crashed. The Crashed effect only lasts a short duration, during which Targets are more vulnerable to subsequent attacks., which will do additional damage Boss Process aren't immune to being Crashed.
Installing Crash() as an Upgrade to most other Functions adds Crashing Targets to their original effect.
Installing Crash() in a Passive slot will grant the User a small amount of damage resistance, as well as immunity to slowing and disabling effects (such as those of Clucker 2.0s and Fetch 3.0s.)

Background[]
Ranked in the top percentile of Cloudbank's contemporary performing artists for five years, Red demonstrated early interest in music despite studying at Traverson Hall. Traverson groomed many of the city's most ambitious civic planners, though Red spent the majority of her time developing the academy's nascent arts program, and was the first on record to select two nontraditional disciplines. Records indicate she was reluctant to explain, citing personal reasons. She remained reticent even after gaining the spotlight, and when asked about her past and influences, would often say her work spoke for itself. She did admit, however, that she never wrote her music with intent to stir controversy.
Career[]
To appreciate the impact of Red's music, consider first the current state of Cloudbank's social climate and how it evolved over the past two decades. When an altercation finally erupted in the crowd during one of her performances, it was the first such incident in four years. It escalated to the point where administrators were summoned to the scene. As one of the suspects was banned from the premises, he accused Red of being an instigator and provocateur. Red later stated it was in this moment that she fully understood the potent effect her music had on people. She decided to take certain precautions from that point, receding from the spotlight to compose new material in relative privacy. Rumors swirled. Then, once she finally re-emerged, trouble followed.
Disappearance[]
The Camerata found her one night once the crowds dispersed after one of her performances. They had reason to believe that she would be alone, rehearsing said new material. But she was not alone, and the presence of another individual disrupted aspects of the Camerata's plan for the night. Red survived the incident, becoming separated from the Camerata due to these unforeseen events on their part. Although her trace data remains intact, partial transfer did occur, including transfer of ownership status of something the Camerata believed theirs.
Trivia[]
- Internally, Crash() is known as "Slam."
- Red's SuperUser Form appears to share its color palette with Crash()'s icon.
- Royce Bracket uses Crash() in his showdown with Red.
- In cut dialogue intended for this fight, he mentions Crash() by name.
