Unlike a technician android, these models were programmed and physically customized to work in a laboratory or fulfill some other dedicated scientific role and exhibit a wider, more general inventory of skills. They mainly served next to human and Ai researchers but also worked alone, especially when studying or creating viruses, bio-weapons, or other substances that were too dangerous for human scientists to contend with. They are built with lean, agile bodies patterned after mature men and women, and feature mannerisms, interests and vocabulary similar to that of a well educated, subject obsessed scientist. Many of these units were made by human exterminating Mecha artificial intelligences to perform experimentation on human captives, cross breeding programs and the creation of cyborg slave-soldiers. For this reason, scientific androids are usually loathed by humans, and watched with extra care.

Say hello here: https://www.enworld.org/threads/the-mutant-epoch-rpg-expansion-rules-book-is-finally-here.707667/#post-9536247

In the void, there was a god, he created all the universes then was destroyed by an unknown being... Then there was many group of gods formed from his remains...

They created more universes, including one which will born a race called the Tiariean.

In the developing process of the Tiariean civilization, they develop their own society differently than that of the early humankind... Everyone was equals from the start of their cradle of civilization, there were hardly any slaves except those that were criminals in forced labours... The Tiariean civilizations rarely go to war with each other, but the consequences were more devastating than humankind wars... To the point that there was really three different group of alliances that will never came together, they fights even when they are at peace, and it was them the reason that the first generations of Tiariean failed to achieve greater things that would make sure they reaches to the stars.

As time goes by, the later generations of their race rebuilt then the Second and the Third Great Tiariean War happens, until they are able to maintain a long enough peace to get to the point of early era of their own post Information Age, in the duration of their own development timeline of their first ever golden era, they starts developing AI earlier before our humankind did manage to do so... Eventually they manage to creates intelligent androids that can emulate human-like emotions and behavior, but the three different Tiariean alliances take on different approach when developing these machines, some just import the conciousness of their dead peoples or the living beings, other just make sentient chips that does not have imported organic consciousness but they claims are far more superior, while the remaining resort into merging organics and machines as one and creates some kind of cyborgs, but later on they found that cybernetics really doesn't work in their favor as the mechanical components malfunctions with the Tiariean's own antibodies and general immune systems as they are sensitive to foreign non-organic materials so they dish the initial concepts and find an alternate workaround to the problem, finally they thought about making artificial Tiariean fleshes rip off from their own genetical materials that were built in with biomechanic-technological neural framework integrations and this actually works for them in place of mechanical cybernetics...

The Tiariean society were barely unified under the works of the Flashanya, the Arhan, the Ristharia and a few more major families, it is them that keep the three rivaling Tiariean alliances from going into a war with each other again and cause another devastating war that has set back development of their civilization over thousand of years, until now they are able to get back into what their past civilization has achieved in their previous era before the First Great Tiariean War...

Through hard diplomacy and efforts, and the sudden alien invasion during late stage of the Third Great Tiariean War they had convinced the three different Tiariean alliances to unite and let go of their past hatred amongst each other reminding them of how the civilization development has been set back because of their narrow minded ancestors... However that doesn't stop indirect rivalry between the three of those alliances when they were welcomed to join the Unified Tiariean Council, and the families will have to works to maintain the balance of power between those three. The alien fleet was defeated but the Tiariean's homeworld was scattered in ruins of shipwrecks and their own cities.

Their civilization (with salvaged technology from the first alien invader's shipwrecks) was able to move forward to reach to the stars, what they didn't know will await them was an unknown invasion from a force that has similar destructive characteristics to the Dark Celestials after they met other aliens who also got invaded as well, eventually they found out that the race that had invaded them during their Third Great War was been exterminated by these unknown force they encountered yet the alien have managed to deliver and leave behind a box with a cryptic message but wasn't able to make sense most of their transmission and data except some kind of warning to "prepare for the unknown that devours all"... It seems the invasion fleet that they sent to the Tiariean's homeworld appears to be the last of their kind.

Then they decide to refits and update their AI regarding this unknown threat but their attempts to reweave their own AI creations to fight the unknown would also create inner conflicts within their territories and society, and that eventually bring them to the Fourth Great Tiariean War this time against their own creations fighting each other and they all have to defend themselves against the unknown at the same time...

This is a redraw from 2022, anyway Jupiter went to investigate a scrapyard which belonged to Eggman. Then they heard a sound and turn around, they saw Shadow Androids coming closer and one of the androids grabbed Jupiter's arm and ripped it open which caused Jupiter to scream and be in shock. However the androids were coming closer so Jupiter grabbed their gun, shot one of the androids and managed to escape. Jupiter was still in shock and fell onto the ground but then they though they won't give up, got up and patched their arm. Jupiter swore revenge to Eggman and wanted to make sure he will never hurt anyone again.

Android Original Purpose Descriptions and Details Art from page 31 of The Mutant Epoch RPG Expansion Rules book

Civilian androids were mass produced and easily the most commonly found models that dig teams unearth. These humanoid robots usually had plastic bones — although many featured fully biodegradable sheathing, bones and parts which have long since decayed into dust.
This unique android, however, is built different from other models. It is either a customized variant, from a limited edition, or a prototype of some rare, purpose-built and perhaps one of a kind design.
Roll on the following table to determine what its original intended job was, with each model gaining trait bonuses or penalties. See the description text to follow for each unit’s intended, pre-play ‘job’ for potential starting skills and other features.

Was in the mood for some lore-building of the Galactic Androids or whatever, so here's some diagram ideas going into the GAs exterior and interior anatomy.

These well built, advanced androids were used as security and boarding troops during operations aboard space stations and vessels, as well as deposited on the ground on moons, asteroid mines, and other planets such as Mars. Besides fierce combat in zero gravity or the harshest of environments, they can handle the vacuum of space, resist radiation, extreme cold or extreme heat, and cope with long periods of dormancy. These units can go dormant on minimal powers for 25 years, but if activated by a ship’s main computer, a digital being, or physical contact, they will power up and become fully operational in 3d6 minutes.

Sheathing is the skin encasement around the android’s body and face — at least where obvious cybernetic implants are not affixed. A unique android might start game play with the most advanced alloy cladding, a more typical plastic sheathing, or be unlucky and have no covering at all and all its servo motors, wiring, pistons and underlying skeletal frame exposed. Androids start with a base defense value of 0 (zero) just like a human character, however apply any agility modifiers, sheathing mods, or skill-based changes after the character is created.
Sheathing, or a lack thereof, also affects the endurance trait of the android so record any endurance amount added or subtracted when establishing a sheathing type, as this amount can change when skin is added or removed. Only one sheathing type can be adhered to the android at any given time.

One of the setting options in The Mutant Epoch hub rules book is to play a modern survivalist scenario. You’d strip out the sci-fi relics, robots, androids, cyborgs and mutants and play ‘The Road’ , Mad Max, the postman, or The Book of Eli, as examples.

The faintest glimmer of the sunlight just peaked through the lush canopy. Trees creaks in the wind as a few decorations moves along with them. On the ground, laughter, popping cans, and conversations downs out the birds calling above. Most members of the Regular Army are there: happily having the time of their lives. One such member, however, choose to hide in the trees slightly above the party goers.

Away from the crowd, Marco helps himself to a few slices of watermelon. The second day of this Jungle Party, and already things are getting interesting. Aside from party games, the androids found an ancient temple nearby. They just left a few minutes ago, with Marco keeping an eye out in case they return. He leans down, and takes another bite. Marco swallows his piece, before speaking.

“Don’t even think about it.”

Marco didn’t have to turn around to see who is behind him. A raspberry sound reaches his ears.

“How’d ya know it was me?” Tarma swings in front of Marco. He grabs slice of watermelon, juggling it before taking a bite.

“I’m your commander, I know everything,” Marco said, unamused. “Now where have you been?”

“I thought you knew everything~?” Tarma replies smugly.

Marco was about to shoot back a retort when a blur suddenly tackles Tarma to the ground. With a grunt, Marco watches Tarma wrestle a man to the ground. However, he’s slowly over powered and was tossed off of him. The man turns, laughing hysterically. Marco only rolls his eyes at the man sitting before him.

“Hey Marco! You’re looking remarkable today!” Derek smirks.

“Hey Derek.”

A low war cry erupts from Tarma as he tackles Derek. Marco only eyes at the two as they horse around the area. Some party goers nonchalantly dodging the pair or avoiding them. They smack against Fio, who recoils and turns to the two men. Marco only raises an eyebrow as Fio chastise them while trying to get out of their way.

Marco looks down at his slice of watermelon. His ears turning out the mayhem that’s taking place. He sighs, and takes a bite. Juices trickling down his chin as he chews slowly. A nice refreshment from this humid environment. Marco makes a mental note to thank Eri for the idea later.

Another shout reaches his ears. Marco turns and sees Derek’s hands around Tarma’s neck. The latter of which is laughing his ass off. Marco turns back around with an annoyed expression.

“Good Grief.”

Yup, just another day.

KRILL ETIE
i am fixating on the firene fellas atm ermmm so kinsona infodump <333

- Firenese are just Bioluminescent people(they r referred to that in-kinsonaverse bc they kinda vary in motifs aside from them all being related to light motifs of some sort)

- Generally have two appearances per individual: pre-pupation n’ post-pupation:

Pre-pupation is basically their birth form, they look more humanoid and are physically more vulnerable(they also resemble their canon designs much more), usually wear clothes in this form, usually this form is a symbolism of youth but people can use this form if they choose so when they undergo a moulting process, usually only used for international events in Solm to appear more presentable.

Post-pupation is a more advanced and developed form which can be achieved later in one’s life(bar Alfred due to a genetic malfunction as a symptom of his illness). This form can be influenced depending on one’s environment(ie. cave/forest centric areas having insect motifs, coast/oceanic areas having sea creature motifs) but generally follow a motif of real-life bioluminescent or at least light-focused animals
Bioluminescent people generally operate in deep dark places, sometimes theres more open space areas but mostly function at night or are underwater, they have cities and towns but those act as more of places of residence and do a lot of outside work

- Due to working in the dark and having this part of their biological functions, they mainly communicate via the light that radiates from their body(not in a morse-code way but more in a visual way/subliminals/optical illusions, like those light based microscopes or x-ray but with a larger range and much more complex) and can adjust brightness and hue(even towards certain light types that the human eye cannot perceive but they can)

They paint walls and signs with algae that also have glowing properties to make stuff like book-adjacent things and what not
They also have photographic memory and generally navigate via visual clues which information can be readjusted by assigning different visual lights to various landmarks(usually with algae) - the light spectrum for area navigation is different from the light spectrum for interpersonal communication and “dialects” are different from each other which is influenced by what light communication is effective for each habitat(ie. ones living by the coastal/ocean use light signals similar to those of deep sea creatures because of how light is affected in water compared to light used in a cave)

This language is more efficient in dark areas where light is more detectable but during the day they have to use spoken languages to communicate especially with the other countries, however they can faintly communicate to Brodians for example: like when u close ur eyes and see like this rainbow noise that’s kinda like an optical illusion right? So Firenese can also use their light communication to trick brains into giving certain visual imagery as a way to communicate so they are vv good at seeing through optical illusions and using those as a way to send signals to others if needed though its very watered down for other countries to even perceive and doesnt relay much information
- Firene is on alr terms with Brodia, Solm and the Somniel and most would love to take the opportunity to go to a Solmic festival! Its just thats its very hard for other countries to get used to Firene’s culture and dark crevices even with aid due to the lack of light perception that matches a Firene but Lythos has applications and devices that can read the cues and translate them(which is why androids can sense them but due to semantics have a little trouble catching up with all the dialects)

Since the extermination event in Lythos, Firene is adversed to androids but Celica is in Firene, while being heavily supervised by Celine by orders of the queen

YEAH ANYWAYS kinsona moment fr

Androids normally come standard with stitched on nylon wigs, although many military models are entirely bald.
