Lord Santa — Roleplayer Guild

Steven was confused with Abel's words for a moment, before coming to a sudden realization.

Oh, is this what it's all about. He thought.

Abel had seemed to come to a mistaken assumption. Something about Steven needing someone to go around with or something? Abel had clearly not understood Steven's intentions.

"When I said you should go ahead, I meant it, you know." Steven said, turning to look at the sun.

It was still relatively high in the sky, but Steven was aware that they still had stuff to do. They had somewhere to be, after all. They weren't really supposed to stop in the town, were they? It was just on the way to their actual destination, he was sure.

"Look, don't we have somewhere to be?" Steven said to Abel. "We're only really here to stock up on supplies and stuff, our actual destination's further ahead."

Steven looked onwards at Abel who was already pretty far away, with a chinchilla on his shoulder of all things.

"But then again, it's not like you're even listening." Steven sighed.

Suddenly, Steven heard something faintly on the wind. He turned back as he heard it. It was unintelligible, but it came from the direction of the others.

What was that? Steven thought.

He wasn't quite sure, but it sounded like someone saying something.

Hm... Better go check. Steven thought.

He began walking back towards the group, just for a little while, to investigate what had made that sound.

That took quite a while and it's pretty long, but there's my CS. Tell me if something's wrong with it. I went a little crazy, so feel free to nerf.


Name: Sebastion (Bastion)

Official name: MPS OmniDrone v001 (Multi-purpose service OmniDrone)

Age: 3 (technically)

Gender: Robot

Appearance:
Shiny steel torso (use your imagination, I sure didn't). Megaman legs. Arms like Bender from Futurama, but with pincers instead of a hand. TV head. Tuxedo. No pants. Pretty shiny.

Order’s almost ready, and I’d sort of like to know what made you do it. It isn’t the weirdest design we’ve ever done, but it’s certainly strange considering its intended purpose.

You wanted pretty weird arms, though I made them anyway. Aluminium core coated in thin titanium bands. Malleable enough for your robotics to work. The hand design was weirdly specific, though it wasn’t much trouble. Made ‘em Carbon steel pincers, for durability. From what you told me, sounds like it’ll be using them pretty hard. Overall, the arms weren’t difficult, though sort of weird how you wanted three of them. Also added the magnets and the jets you wanted. Don’t know what you’re doing with a rocket punch. They’re about 1 and a ½ feet long, though can stretch up to around 2 and a third feet long. There’s also the mini hands coming out of the pincers, for finer detail. Thought you might want that. They can plug in to pretty much anything, though that just connects the robot to the network. The actual power plug’s in his torso.

The torso’s mainly made out of adamantine steel. Strongest stuff around. Pretty sure the starship’s made out of this too, but your torso doesn’t have nearly as much. I added an titanium core protecting the power source and fuel storage and coated the entire thing in an aluminium-steel alloy. Not the strongest in the world, but it should serve your purposes, and its light enough to do the job. The hardest thing was adding storage for all the tools, though it didn’t take long. It’s about 2 feet tall.

The legs from your design wouldn’t have worked, by the way. You need a stronger base to hold up all the weight from the torso, head and arms. I made the bottom a thicker, sort of like that one character from that video game series from the 20th century, the one with the blue robot guy. The inside’s made up of aluminium and carbon steel. The outside’s also got some carbon and titanium. Fitted the thing with the magnets and thrusters you wanted, though you’ll need a lot of fuel for it. Even with all the aluminium, it’s still pretty heavy. Not as heavy as some of my other projects, but heavy. They’re about 2 and a ½ feet tall each.

The head’s out of my jurisdiction, though I hear it’ll be something like an LCD display, for displaying stuff or something. I don’t really get it. It’s apparently about 1 foot tall and got some wireless network connection stuff too. Overall, he’ll be something like 5 ½ feet tall, which is a bit short of your designs, but 6 foot wouldn’t do too well with the girls.

The tools will be coming soon, but the arms and head should be coming your way. I need to work on the link between the thrusters and the fuel tank. They’ll be coming in about a week. Added some polish to ‘em, so it’ll come out sleek as steel. You’ll have to source the tuxedo on your own, though.

Personality:
AI-ProgressReport_v6.9

So, I coded this guy up with the AI that’ll get him running. The basics were easy, even if a little boring. Wasn’t hard to make him go to peak efficiency, and the rest fell into it. Since I had so much time on my hands, I coded his normal mode personality to be a little bit “friendlier”. He should be a happy little guy, easy to get along with. Eager to please. Shouldn’t come off as trying too hard, though. I found it a little hard to code in social cues, so he’ll come off as a little blunt. Nothing I could do, really. Also, as a little side project, I gave him some emotions. Don’t worry, they won’t get in the way of his objectives, and he has some overrides in place, but I coded some basic moral stuff into him. Should make him feel more like a real dude.

Of course, I added a little personality to his other modes, but they shouldn’t get in the way of normal functioning. May seem a little unnecessary, but some friendliness in space for however long this’ll last can’t be a bad thing. He has a good capacity for friends.

Oh, but one weird side effect. Because he’s powered by magic, he thinks he can do magic too. While this isn’t actually the case, his tools have enough power to match them in his combat mode. Shouldn’t affect anything though, but you should probably know.

History:
The little robot that could

The world has been abuzz for some time about the experimental FTL starship that has been under construction for some time. Even in an age of peace such as this, it’s rare that the countries of the world join hands under one goal. In a rare case of cooperation not seen since the U.N treaty on the militarization of magical girls, the world has banded together to make the first ever starship to sail into space and beyond.

Stories have persisted for generations about what was out there, what could lie beyond the furthest stars. Brave warriors and explorers have danced in the firmament for so long, in places we could only imagine. The day that those stories become reality may come very soon. Though one story has often been ignored in this great event, the story of the little robot that could.

There was a robot named Sebastian, a robot built to operate in the starship. We had the fortune to meet Sebastion during his testing phase, and were surprised to find that he was the friendliest being we’d seen this side of earth, even with the jobs he would be doing. He was made to withstand the vacuum of space to undergo dangerous repair missions. He could go down to a planet’s surface and safely scan it for resources. He was built to serve and protect, to defend his fleshy counterparts to whatever lay in outer space. Yet his sweet demeanour and adorable tuxedo melted our callous, frozen hearts. 

To understand his story, you have to learn about his creators, and the history behind the starship. The starship was a collaborative project from most of the world, having many leading designers working on the project. As such, to any engineer, it would be amazing just to glimpse it in development, see the complexities of its design and contribute to the brilliant work being done to make it. Unfortunately, construction needed the best of the best, and many an aspiring technician’s dreams were crushed.

The people behind Sebastion were only a small robotics team of unknown designers, but they had the right traits when it counted, and hopes higher than the sky, but enough practicality to make it work. Their dream created the MSP OmniDrone, a robot that will revolutionise space exploration and will become a valuable friend to all on the Starship.
