[hider=Ren] [b]Name:[/b] Ren [b]Age/Race/Gender:[/b] ? / Machine / ? [b]Appearance:[/b] A 1' black metal sphere resting in a recepticle on a dark grey, reflective tower, standing at 7' tall. Fifteen ball-mount cameras face outwards in all directions from the sphere, which has a silver-bordered seamline running around its middle and two small iris-doors towards what can be assumed to be the front. The tower is shaped as a hexagonal pyramid up to the spherical "head", with a bottom diameter of 3'. A seam comes down the very center of the front of the tower, with well-hidden hinges upon the corners nearest. There is one lens in a ball mount on each face of the tower, mounted dead center - including on the tower's centerline. Six circular holes with iris doors line the 6" black ceramic alloy border along the bottom of the tower. When open, a spaghetti-like mass of motorized metal cables erupt from the six doors, each of which is rather thick, and is tipped with two jawlike clamps, a camera, and an arc welder. [hider=Rento] [b]Name:[/b] Rento [b]Age/Race/Gender:[/b] Appears 24, Humanoid Construct, Female [b]Appearance:[/b] Rento is humanlike in nearly all aspects, precisely manufactured and sitting on the very edge of the Uncanny Valley. Rento stands at 5'5" and weighs 110 lbs. Her round, softly-shaped face is framed neatly by short, black, bobbed hair, underneath which lay almond-shaped green cybernetic eyes. Her body shape is similar to old sculptures and paintings of Venus, disturbingly free of imperfections of any sort. Rento's outfit is dated -- old-style faded jeans, a black tee-shirt, and black leather hiking boots, as though lifted directly from the 21st Century. [/hider] [hider=Renli] [b]Name:[/b] Renli [b]Age/Race/Gender:[/b] Appears 24, Humanoid Construct, Male [b]Appearance:[/b] Humanlike appearance in almost all aspects, clearly manufactured to exact specifications and sitting just barely on the edge of the Uncanny Valley. Renli stands at 6'2" and weighs in at roughly 180 lbs., with semi-short shaggy brown hair. A square jawline and sharp cheekbones stand out below two cybernetic eyes of glass, similar to the cheaper prosthetics available on the medical market and complete with dull green metallic irises. His body shape is identical to old sculptures and paintings of Adonis - which is to say, he has the ancient "ideal Roman" build, disturbingly free of imperfections of any sort. Renli's clothing is simple - faded, old-style jeans and a black tee shirt, with black hiking boots. He wears no armor of any sort. [/hider] [b]Equipment:[/b] [hider=Weapons] [b]Combat Knife:[/b] A simple and very heavy vibro-blade, eight inches long, designed to smash through armor with ease. Runs on external electrical power. Unpowered, it's merely a simple blade cast of an unknown ceramic alloy. A second one is in a sheath mounted to the inside of the left Tower door, as an emergency replacement. [b]PXR-12 Xaser Emitter:[/b] A barebones, vintage laser system. The upper receiver of the PXR-12 consists of a narrow, long laser housing surrounded by 40 oblong stainless steel laser pump housings, with coated copper wiring wrapping around and between the spaces between the laser pumps. The sides of the PXR-12 are lined with high energy capacitors, and a reflex sight is welded to the top of the entire assembly, with a small LED display showing the charge percentage in the weapon. Each trigger pull completely discharges the capacitor arrays into the laser pumps and housing, creating an extremely short lived but also extremely high energy 0.05nm laser pulse, only 0.5mm wide. The effective firerate depends more on the power supply than the system itself. A knob at the front end of the assembly adjusts the output lens assembly's focal point, and ranges from 1 meter to 1km. Ranges beyond that are, unfortunately, completely nonviable due to diffraction problems, and the power of the beam drops steadily with distance. The PXR-12 is mounted on a short rifle-grip assembly with a bipod that serves double-duty as a vertical foregrip. A battery pack may be mounted in the stock, or a wire may be inserted to run it off of external power. On the top of the lower receiver is etched "UNITED STATES PROPERTY, NO. 000001 || PXR-12 U.S. ARMY", and a star-shaped emblem, nearly faded away from age and use. Where the metal used to be blackened, it's now fading to a shade of dull steel, flecked with rust. A second rifle, serial number 000002, is stored inside the tower closet, with its output clearly feeding into a complex mirror system which, in turn, outputs to the ball-mount lenses on the exterior of the tower. [b]M1911A1:[/b] Five antique M1911A1s are stored inside the tower closet on the right side door, each with a magazine inserted and a round in the chamber for 8 shots. Two spare magazines are clipped in alongside each pistol. Ballistic, but very old, powder-driven, and ineffective against armor and shields. Still good enough on soft targets, though. These have been collected over a long period of time, and are in various states of wear. Only one is in pristine condition, as though stolen directly from a museum. [/hider] [b]Hardware:[/b] [hider=Renli and Rento] [b]"Hacking" Cables:[/b] This is not computer hacking. This is literally breaking into a wall or conduit and forcibly taking control of an electrical system, completely bypassing whatever original control circuit was in place. Renli and Rento each have twelve bundles of prehensile cables within its abdomen, each of which is tipped with a camera, two claw clamps, and a miniscule arc welder for severing cables and melting through walls and hulls. While not as good as a good, old-fashioned knife or fist, the cables are able to serve as a self defense mechanism in a pinch. Rento's are narrower and capable of finer motions, while Renli's carry a much higher voltage and strike harder. [/hider] [hider=Tower] [b]"Hacking" Cables:[/b] This is not computer hacking. This is literally breaking into a wall or conduit and forcibly taking control of an electrical system, completely bypassing whatever original control circuit was in place. The Tower has sixty bundles of durable prehensile cables within its base, each of which is tipped with a camera, two claw clamps, and an arc welder for severing cables and melting through walls and hulls. The Tower's cables are much thicker and stronger than either Renli or Rento's are, and can serve as effective melee weapons. The Tower's cables can each extend to roughly fifty meters. [b]Internal Communications Array:[/b] The Sphere atop the Tower contains a comprehensive communications array. It is compatible with most other systems, to some degree, though the distance it can transmit a signal is tied to the Tower's power system. Without the Tower, the Sphere cannot transmit beyond the immediate vicinity and, in fact, has trouble with anything outside 20th century walkie-talkie radio range. With the Tower, however, the range is extended significantly, to roughly 50,000 kilometers in a vacuum with no interference. [/hider] [/hider]
