Robots

Automechs are general purpose repair drones, found just about everywhere. Each particular automech tends to specialize in a particular type of repair work and so carries the appropriate tools and AI skills, whether it be habitat waste recyclers, outer hull integrity, or servitor systems.

The main defense for the swarm is nearly three dozen autonomous kill vehicles: heavily armed and armored drones that spend most of their time latched on to other ships in the fleet or drifting on the edges of the flotilla looking for threats.

Flying Drones that eliminate all sensors in an area.

A bot designed to care for smart animals.

Creepies are small crawler bots that come in an eclectic variety of shapes and forms, from robosquirrels to insectoids to bizarre and artsy mechanical creatures. Creepies were originally designed as a sort of robotic pet, but they are commonly used as a general purpose household minion, like a more beloved servitor.

This robotic weapons platform is a defensive system for small settlements. They are often placed in orbit to guard against encroaching intruders.

These wheeled medical robots are designed to tend to and transport injured or sick people. They carry a healing vat, a specialized pharmaceuticals maker, miscellaneous medical gear, and articulated arms for conducting remote surgery.

These large industrial bots are named not just for their primary use"mining, excavation, tunneling, and construction"but because the default AIs they shipped with had a programmed tendency to happily whistle as they worked.

Similar to gnats, guardian angel rotorcraft hover around their charges, keeping a watchful eye out to protect them from threats. This combat-ready variant is used by the Exotech Risk Specialist.

Dog-sized wheeled bots that are tethered back through the gate. Equipped with audio, visual, chemical, and radio sensors.

These fast-moving, cat-like bots are about 50 centimeters long (less the tail) and made of stealth materials. They fulfill a surveillance and occasionally anti-personnel role in urban operations. Wobblycats can run, jump, or climb unseen into areas where a human-sized infiltrator would never be able to go, but with much greater speed than nanoswarms.

Gnats are small rotorcraft camera/surveillance drones. Many people use gnats for personal lifelogging, while socialites and media use them to capture the glamor or hottest news.

Similar to gnats, guardian angel rotorcraft hover around their charges, keeping a watchful eye out to protect them from threats.

Crab like and standardized repair bots can be found anywhere transhumanity has spread.

A drone with 6 to 8 arms and a small plasma thruster to provide mobility.

Interceptors are robotic spacecraft that are used as part of the cordon around Earth. Clearly of cutting-edge design, interceptors have no external markings to indicate their manufacturer, which suggests that they are deployed by a Planetary Consortium military-tech project. Interceptors are extremely fast, extremely agile, very well armored, and heavily armed.

Designed to be worn as a forearm cuff on the outside of a vacsuit. It carries a Utilitool and a mobile lab. Can detach and move on its own.

These Aerostats are deployed on the gas giant planets, loaded with equipment to extract specific volatiles from the atmosphere.

These fast-moving, cat-like bots are about 50 centimeters long (less the tail) and made of stealth materials. They fulfill a surveillance and occasionally anti-personnel role in urban operations. Wobblycats can run, jump, or climb unseen into areas where a human-sized infiltrator would never be able to go, but with much greater speed than nanoswarms.

Micro-sized recon flyers with gas balloons and turbofans. Equipped with image recognition software. Useful for finding hidden items.
