@Baklava It's all good. Schedules are hard. I'd rather see a good post than a rushed one. I can wait for the dumbstruck reactions of the party members upon seeing the mechanical marvel Noi.
There was a monolith in the graveyard unlike the stone memorials. It stood upon a ledge opposite the entrance. A dull and dark figure made of hammered plates. It looked ancient older than all the stones around it. Leaves had piled up on the pauldrons and even a bluebird had decided to rest there. It wouldnβt be hard to overlook among all the tombs. Even then it was far from what it appeared. Beneath the shell lay the lost ingenuity of bygone peoples.
While it had gone undetected it has seen all who entered the graveyard. Actual Hylians, a goron, sheikah, and then stranger things. Ghastly beings and strange humans that it knew not of. The fairy was certainly peculiar. In his time fairies were quiet and kind yet this one was brash and loud. As a matter of fact most of them seemed highly uncouth and uncivilized. Back in his day all bowed before hylia and would die for her, and yet these lot were cowardly and greedy. The hero was a legend from even before his time. To deny his task was to cast off the gilded yolk of destiny. The machine whirred to life blue energy coursing through the sigils on its armor.
It would be impossible to not hear it. A low hum filled the air. Then there was thunder. The monolith fell forward dropping down into the main cemetery landing on its hands and knees. What could only be presumed to be its head snapped upward towards the fairy.
βTarget: Acquired.β It bellowed in a cold inhuman voice.
The metal monster pushed itself to its feet and lumbered forwards. It towered over the graves and those gathered there. The giant stopped just before the few who had remained.
βDesignation: Lanayru Desert Dash βNβ βOβ One, Noi. Sentinel class." The voice was entirely flat no emotion or soul behind it, but something clicked and the voice became ethereal and distant "Directive: Β’ΟΠΌΡ ΡΟ ΡΠ½Ρ gΡΞ±Ξ½ΡΡΞ±Ρβ.Β’ΟΠΌΡ qΟ ΞΉΒ’ΠΊβΡ.ΡΞΉΠΌΡ ΞΉΡ ΟΖ ΡΠ½Ρ ΡΡΡΡΞ·Β’Ρ.....β
Noi stood there waiting for a response. While he had heard most of the fairy's claims they didn't all make perfect sense. Firstly Noi pondered who Ganondorf could be. It wasn't entirely relevant as anything the goddess' wished would be done, but it worried Noi that his database was incomplete on such an important matter. Second why were such monstrosities here. Up close Noi gained an even better view of the freaks that had gathered. If the goddess needed an army why were creatures the first called. If this battle was to be anything like the ancient war then there should be knights and rangers and wizards not grotesque children and spirits. Either way Noi would stand alone if needed. He was used to being alone.
From ages long past. Time slips by like the sands of the desert.

Noi in prime condition with shield.
Noi is a mechanical hulk. Towering over most gorons Noi stands at nine foot tall and likely outweighs them with his fully metal body. The plates that cover his frame are heavy iron and steel giving the robot a similar appearance to a giant knight. Noi is even adorned with a plate helm in place of a real head.
When Noi was created he was a shining warrior for good. Intended to serve in the protection of the Lanayru desert facility he was designated as a sentinel to shelter the mining robots. He was equipped with a massive hammer, a tower shield, and a built in clawshot.
The ages have not been kind to Noi. While he once was a glittering sign of technology he has been beaten and worn by the eras. His armor is scratched and damaged in multiple places. His tower shield was misplaced decades ago, and his clawshot hasnβt been functioning for even longer. He has entirely lost his sheen leaving his metal dull and dark.

Noi almost lacks personality. He lives by his programming. He can recreate basic emotions to improve interface with non-robots, but whether or not he feels them is up for debate. He acts βangryβ when there are problems and is βhappyβ when things go well, but he largely remains in a neutral state with everything. At the same time he has notably strong reactions to certain things. He is especially fond of other ancient robots. Despite being the only functioning one he knows of he still tends to the remains of deactivated units in his area. He has an innate hatred for peahats as well. These somewhat random points give Noi a childlike charm and rudeness despite his physical being. He is ultimately very simple in his cognition partially because of limited processing and also because of his highly outdated database.
The most bizarre part of Noiβs AI is his distinct knowledge of himself as a being. He knows of himself and understands his existence. He is able to contemplate his higher meaning even if he doesnβt linger on it.
.::πΉππππ€π₯π π£πͺ::.
The spark was given unto Noi in the ages before the fall of Demise. He stood at the entrance into Lanyru desert for decades ensuring the facility there did not fall to the monsters. Those were simple days.
Time was the greatest adversary of the robots. While Noi was made to endure the massive rigors of battle others were more simplistic and designed to be maintained frequently. Noi was meant to tend to himself. While the centuries claimed the masters and the miners Noi remained at his vigil. As the years dragged on slowly shutting down all the robots Noi was left with a conflict in his prime directive. He was to protect his brothers or avenge them yet they had been destroyed by time, so he stood at an impasse unable to help them.
For decades he has maintained a very small area in the midst of the desert. He has been isolated here knowing nothing of how the world changed. Here he has stored his deactivated brothers. He would do anything to restore them. Even his own spark is a worthy price.
Stuck in his loop he has continued to function without reason. That is until a new program reached him. Even unable to find a source of the program it has allowed Noi to seek a new set of possibilities. He hopes that this path may provide an answer to how he can restore his brothers.
Fighting Skills (FS) Super Fighting Robot (10) βI am more than a mega man.β : Combining the sheer durability of his form with the power of machinery Noi is capable of being a monstrosity on the battlefield. Even without his warhammer Noiβs entire body is a weapon. To enrage the machine is to challenge death. Even Stalfos or Darknutβs would likely struggle to keep up with the robot. That doesnβt mean there arenβt flaws to his construction. The sheer weight of his armor along with its size limits Noiβs movement and speed. He will endure hits, but he certainly wonβt dodge many.
Magic Skills (MS) Electric Current (5) βYouβve been thunderstruck.β : The mechanisms that keep Noi going can also overclock to produce electrical effects around him. Based on his current state he can produce more or less electricity. If Noi has been resting and doing nothing but charging he could essentially fire a lightning bolt, if Noi has been doing average work he might be able to arc a small spark from his hand, if Noi has been exerting himself he will have no electricity to spare.
β: While not as dexterous as the LD-300s Noi is fully equipped with knowledge of ancient devices from his region. He can apply this to most other mechanisms, but that very much depends on the type.
Close to Metal (4) βI am the potter and the clay.β : While not the most capable smith himself Noi knows his metals and can make repairs to himself with the correct materials.
I, Robot (10) "I do not dream of electric sheep.": Noi is a robot. He doesnβt eat, sleep, breath, or function like a living being. He can function underwater, in high temperature areas, and all the extremes in between. This has other costs like his need for Peahat oil, repairs, and more. He also lacks creativity and more broad thinking. He much prefers direct to clever answer, aka heβd rather smash down a door than find the key.

Prime Directive: 00:Protect the Lanaryu Desert Facility. 10: If the Facility falls protect brothers. 20: If the brothers are lost avenge them. 30: When they are avenged rebuild. 40: Go to 00
Noi obeys his programming and has acted on this since his creation. It's impossible to tell if he has free will because of how he follows his directive. Are the goals his or only his creators? For now his purpose is to seek a way to restore his brothers.

-Mhmm. I haven't done any of the formatting it will be all nice and pretty when I'm finished.
- I was working off of the LD-000 not the LD-300s. zeldawiki.org/File:LD-003K_Dreadfuse.png and zeldawiki.org/Scervo . Dreadfuse more specifically is actually, technically a good guy, he was designed to protect the triforce in the temple under the goddess statue in skyloft. The main difference between Noi and dreadfuse being that Noi is basically all covered in plate mail rather than being light and designed for dueling. As well it's why I have the clawshot in Noi's offhand to match the idea that the LD-000's all have hooks for a hand.
Essentially I took the LD-000 frame and put a big suit of armor over it. While not exactly what I've had in mind I've had an idea similar to this>
@Baklava Well I suppose I'll show you what I have then. I don't really consider it done. just current progress.
