- Residual self image (RSI) is the subjective appearance of a human while connected to the Matrix. The RSI's content may be defined in part from the semi-permanent programming of a redpill's headjack. Neo, while standing in the empty Construct with Morpheus, is seen wearing regular street clothes not much different from what he wore in his apartment. The RSI may also be altered by a Zion operative prior to their jacking in from monitor stations connected to the jack-in seats. Trinity's RSI changed several times throughout the Matrix film trilogy.
- Residual Self Image is what you get when a Virtual Reality, Spirit World, or other alternate plane of existence designs the appearance of avatars in its domain off of personality and how people think of themselves, rather than real-world appearance. Examples of Residual Self Image include:

The RSI may also be defined by the locale where the operative appears. Neo's avatar in Mobil Avenue station appeared in clothing very similar to that of the Merovingian's after Neo's mind was accidentally diverted there.
- Residual Self Image is what you get when a Virtual Reality, Spirit World, or other alternate plane of existence designs the appearance of avatars in its domain off of personality and how people think of themselves, rather than real-world appearance. In fiction, a world seen through residual self-images will often have Beauty Equals Goodness in effect, or else the absolute inverse. (Self-hatred might skew things a little.) Gender and (sometimes) species may be different in that VR than in the real world. Odds are, there will be a set of Personal Appearance Tropes the VR is using to translate personality into looks...
