cool idea.  Since I couldn't get my rps off the ground I figured I'd join someone else's.

What is the state of robotics in this universe?  Could I be an android servant of some variety?  For example, I'd be given the job of maintaining the equipment onboard/ repairing the ship.  Essentially, I'd be a non-com whose power supply only had a few hours of power in it, so I was stuck to the ship.  I would have only basic combat training.  Think something like Bishop from Aliens. I don't fight, but I can do non-combat piloting and mechanical work.  I could have the Three Laws in my head, or something similar, if you want.
