Molly

Designation: Set  02, Molly 

Model: SABS - 021712

Series: Yoshikane

Type: Special Autonomous Biological Support

Description: Biomimetic bipedal humanoid female form. Partial amorphous elastomer outer casing. Hardframe auto-mechanical endoskeleton. External remote awareness and direct response actuator. Multiphasic perceived accountability inhibitor. 

Notes: Aesthetic gender specification is often beneficial for units working in proximity to biological personell, if only to provide a sense of anthropomorphic accessibility. It is reasoned that humans are not so much insular as simply insecure with externally initiated objective reasoning. Molly can provide impartial insight without provoking any sort of existential resistance.

Mindy

Designation: Set 12, Mindy

Model: SAT - 122311

Series: Katsukuni

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description: Biomimetic humanoid, combat type R. Empathic weapon to optical relay targeting system optimized for close range precision. Plenoptic microlens optical array. J-Woo target awareness system.

Notes: Conventional targeting relies on optical sensors to focus on potential targets, relaying that visual information to arm or weapon mount controls to direct firing patterns. Mindy uses light-field gathering technology to generate real-time target awareness planes which allows her weapon control features to operate independently of her primary computational functions, enabling her to flow seamlessly between targeting and damage avoidance.  

Ruth

Designation: Set 12, Ruth

Model: SAL - 121111

Series: Sukekuni

Type: Special Autonomous Logistical

Description: Dorsal mounted universal Lenticular Reentry Vehicle coupling. Clumped booster base module. Shielded cranial covering. Boost assisted extended manipulators.

Notes: Intended as little more than an autonomous deep space tug, Ruth has shown promise as a short range salvage vessel. 

Madeline

Designation: Set 11, Madeline

Model: SAT - 111911

Series: Sadanori

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description: Bipedal Humanoid, special chassis. Optimized dual-wield weapon capabilities, with dedicated individual targeting logic centers. Rear cranial mounted extending optical sensor, with 360 degree swivel. Powered by eight micro rectenna (rectifying antenna) panels, independently mounted, requiring a C-Brown series phased array microwave transmitter. Self repairing nano polymer light armored core. Titanium joint structures.

Notes: Aesthetics and function have often been at opposing ends of the spectrum in autonomous design. Early in Madeline's development an emphasis was placed on maintaining smooth, seamless lines to create a more graceful profile. However, during combat testing, her low performance rating demanded certain structural changes in order to realize the full potential of her programming. Her extremities, while visually appealing, lacked the resilience needed to single-handedly operate heavier weapon types. In the end, her lower arms and legs were designed by an outside firm, Kuniyoshi, who won a Rotwang award for their telekinetic automaton Patricia. Stronger and faster, the finalized limbs even incorporated a power receiver/transfer system. 

Gwen

Designation: Set 11, Gwen

Model: SAT-111011

Series: Masahiro

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description: Bipedal humanoid long-range limited assistance type. Rear mounted dual phase UN (uranium nitride) reactor, capable of 70 MW thermal / 25 MW electric output, with an active life of 10 years. Single integrated Rothchild AAT-3 weapons system, with optimized .300 Winchester Magnum ammunition, and a 50 round magazine. Full range optical sensory array, including infrared, thermal, low-light, and composite satellite requisitioned imagery.    

Notes: Occasionally an operative is needed who can carry out extended missions without support. Gwen has little trouble waiting for the opportune moment to strike, with more than enough independently generated power to keep her phalange on the firing mechanism for more than a decade without refueling. Armed with an exceptionally efficient weapons system, she can deliver devastating firepower at her leisure.  

Janette

Designation: Set  10, Janette

Model: SABS - 100611

Series: Moriyuki

Type: Special Autonomous Biological Support

Description: Partial humanoid, quadrupedal wheeled locomotion. Tri-pronged forced kinetic manipulator arms. Extensively indexed records of both human anatomy and autonomous design parameters. CRTAD type strategic reasoning and manipulation electronic mind system.

Notes: Torture, of either humans or automatons, is typically a subject of considerable repugnance in most civilized society. Still, with the latest advancements in electronic shielding and code encryption, often it is necessary to take a more physical approached to intelligence gathering. Janette has the rare ability to outwit and confuse even the most capably secure biomimetic brain systems, and can often obtain information without the use of structural integrity awareness warning protocols. Tearing mechanical entities to shreds while still activated is merely a hobby.

Ashley

Designation: Set 08, "Ashley."

Model: SAT - 083111

Series: Hirotaka

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description:

Notes: 

Beth

 

Designation: Set 08, "Beth."

Model: SABS - 080111

Series: Sukemune

Type: Special Autonomous Biological Support    

Description: Bipedal humanoid light frame. Exterior shell comprised of multi-layered Thermoplastic Polyurethane. Liquid nanosite collective brain, optimized for empathic human type responses. Passive neural wave transceiver.  

Notes: Beth's ability to perceive, interpret, and alter human emotion makes her an invaluable asset in the management of biological resources. As a councilor she is adept in the psychological maintenance inevitably needed in human personnel. It is important to note that the continued use of her vast talents simply to ascertain levels of human deception is a misuse of a valuable tool.

 

Camille

Designation: Set  06, "Camille."
Model: SAT - 071011

Series: Tsunahiro

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description: Bipedal humanoid, female type. Direct contact phase variable hyper-magnetic joint system. Dedicated EMR (electromagnetic radiation) surge weapon capable of delivering heat, mechanical, or electrical energy to ranged targets. Optimized manipulator arm, formatted for specific melee weapons tactics. Outfitted with pole mounted laser Induced plasma Grass-Cutter module. 

Notes: Female aesthetics, or any gender specific characteristics, may seem extraneous in autonomous design. Certain factions within the autonomous community indeed consider any similarity to human anatomy, beyond biomimetic practicality, to be socially unacceptable. Even so, the "Special" designation in tactical units is almost always associated with distinctly feminine humanoid frames. In some aspects this serves a strategic purpose, as certain biological enemies will potentially hesitate during visual contact, allowing the unit a greater chance of striking first. Aside from such pragmatism, there is a tradition among elite design firms, such as Tsunahiro, to model specialized tactical automatons after the legendary assassin Diana, one of the most successful robotic killing machines in recorded history.    

Abigail

 


Designation: Set  05, "Abigail."

Model: AT - 062711

Series: Yukihiro

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description:

Notes: 

Natalie

 

Designation: Set  05, "Natalie."

Model: SAUT - 062011

Series: Yasutomo

Type: Special Autonomous Urban Tactical

Description: Bipedal humanoid frame.Nanutube armor. Pleasing biomimetic features.

Notes: For automatons working in close proximity to humans, especially in communicative roles between man and machine, familiar aesthetics improve work efficiency by up to 30%. Often however adding elements such as hair and other such quintessential human features runs the risk of alienating the unit from other robots.

Jacqueline

Designation: Set  05, "Jacqueline."

Model: SAT - 061811

Series: Kunikane

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description: Bipedal humanoid. Light assault chassis, specially calibrated for special tactical heavy armament. Dedicated short barrel large bore, 40mm S-67 Hoplophile anti-material cannon. Single high definition optical sensor, with automatic shutter style armored visor.  

Notes: One argument in favor of dedicated armament is that it inhibits the enemies ability to utilize weaponry obtained from casualties. Also, with the right kind of weapon equipped, there is little need for variation. There are very few things in need of holes bigger than can be made with a 40mm S-67 Hoplophile anti-material cannon.

Audrey

Designation: Set  05, "Audrey."

Model: SAT- 061211

Series: Shosai

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description: Bipedal humanoid. Carbide titanium locking joint structure. Dual leg mounted reverse thrust anchor engines. Dedicated macrofusion low velocity energy launcher.

Notes: Dedicated armament has its limitations, especially those in place of an arm. Units with limited variable combat application often feel forced to compensate with an exaggerated specialization. Audry's primary function is to obliterate large scale structural elements, specifically to deny an enemy strategic locations from which to stage operations. The scope of her ability to destroy things is great enough to warrant only a conservative use of her talents, making her a rarity on the battlefield. Actually, she is so specific a tool that more often than not it is better to make do without her than it is to foresee the need for her and conduct operations with her on hand.

Blythe

Designation: Romeo - Set  04, "Blythe."

Model: SAS - 042511

Series: Nagatoshi

Type: Special Autonomous Support

Description: Mounted autonomous marionette operator. External over-sized liquid state electronic brain encased in the base frame. Full range operating arm. Interchangeable end of arm mechanical figureheads. 

Notes: In many ways Blythe's role in autonomous intelligence management is virtually identical to Eliza's. The major difference, aside from the fact that she is both stationary and floor mounted, is larger, faster brain, which is capable of handling significantly larger workloads.

Kate

Designation: Kilo - Set  04, "Kate."

Model: SAT - 041811

Series: Kanenori

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description: Artificial pyrokinetic type matter exciting gauntlets. Mobile eight point low center solid base.

Notes: Until recently, fire-based weaponry has been reliant on either chemicals, light amplification, or microwave energy to achieve an effective burns. Kate utilizes disruptive matter displacement technology to selectively excite matter into combustion. The benefit of this is a wider range of tactical capabilities, from pinpoint internal combustion from behind cover, to igniting the oxygen in the air for a unprejudiced approach to large scale devastation.

Eliza

 

 

 

Designation: Golf - Set  04, "Eliza."

Model: SAS - 041411

Series: Nobushige

Type: Special Autonomous Support

Description: Massive data stream management system. Nano-cling, ceiling mounted mobile base structure. Functional figurehead construct, with bio-organic encasement.

Notes: Eliza is a integral part of managing the flow of consciousness between self identifying mechanical entities and superimposed hive-mind work protocols. She is especially needed with units incorporating biomimetic free thought and will. In particular, her adeptness in inserting specific command chains without triggering logic defenses, which allows her subjects the illusion of self generating commands, has made her popular with large scale corporate labor contractors. Her choice in figure heads doesn't seem to hurt either.

Patricia

Designation: Uniform - Set  03, "Patricia."

Model: SAT - 040111

Series: Kuniyoshi

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description: Artificial psychokinesis force driver, with telekinetic and pyrokinetic capabilities. High-yield energy induction panel system.

Notes: Brain actuated "super-powers" have long been a dream of human evolution. It is only fitting therefore that this should at long last be fulfilled by the true successor of mankind's development, robotics.   

Infect (share):

Clara

Designation: Quebec - Set  03, "Clara."

Model: SAT - 032811

Series: Yoshikuni

Type: Special Autonomous Tactical

Description: Special application black-ops weapons platform. Single integrated pulse function neural disruption device. Direct focus aggression actuator.

Notes: It is said that in war the human mind is the greatest weapon. This is of course utter nonsense. Especially considering Clara's primary weapon effectively renders the neurons within a biological brain incapable of transmitting electronic information. In battle this is useful not only to incapacitate enemy combatants, but also to create chaos and distress within their personnel infrastructure.

Infect (share):

Hunter

Designation: Mike - Set  03, "Hunter."

Model: SSH - 032411

Series: Norihiro

Type: Special Symbiotic Hybrid

Description: Female specified second-skin thermoelectric generator. Single optical reception module. Dual burst flight vertical thrusters.

Notes: With very little of their own structure to define an individual personality, most second skin symbiotic hybrids are prone to SDDs (structural dysmorphic disorders). Hunter avoids performance affecting bouts of self loathing by catering exclusively to a structurally predetermined female host archetype.

Evelyn

 

 

 

Designation: Kilo - Set  03, "Evelyn."

Model: Special Autonomous Support - 032211

Series: Mitsumasa

Type: Autonomous Support

Description: Fully articulated qualified autonomous assistant / bipedal mobile energy storage source. Aesthetically pleasing tech-nouveau design style. 32 individual technical functions. Infinite virtual playback.

Notes: As a technical assistant, Evelyn is a favorite among independent designers. She is both an extra set of hands and a walking power outlet, a dual role that has earned her a reputation for cost-effectiveness. She is however limited in her industrial applications, and her critics have suggested that she is little more than the equivalent of an illusionist's assistant.
