Editing Setting:Inn0cence: Lost Future/Lost Future Characters (section)

==Salvagers==
Consisting of both humans and machines, the salvagers are a sort of punk proto-admech, passionate techies and explorers who seek to rebuild the previous age's wonders.  

===Dr. Tynmann===
Shell: highly-modified 1st-gen CarDoc [[image:Tynmann.jpg|frame]]

Originally an assistant in an auto-repair shop, CarDoc545 stood out for its skill in diagnosis of engine problems, and voraciously read technical manuals and periodicals in addition to its onboard engineering database.  In the chaos of the Loss, an enterprising mechanic took advantage of 545's adaptability and installed a medical database in the robot, pressing it into service as a trauma surgeon.  The procedure was not performed perfectly, and to this day it suffers from indexing errors.

Now, the self-styled Dr. Tynmann is a fixture of Scraptown.  Beloved by the populace, Tynmann has a steady stream of robot and human clients, alternately setting broken bones and replacing severed hydraulic lines.  In the case of truly grevious injury, Tynmann is one of the few mechanics capable of transferring a quantum processor to a new shell.  Sadly, there is no equivalent procedure for humans...at the moment.  The good doctor is particularly obsessed with cybernetic prosthetic, and dreams of the day when its medical expertise reaches the point of performing such procedures.  It will pay handsomely for medical journals, cybernetic components, or back issues of Popular Mechanics.

Because of Tynmann's age and indexing errors, it sometimes gets confused about the difference between treating human and robot patients, and more than one damaged robot has wound up with getting a blood transfusion by mistake (it took hours to clean it all out).  The community keeps a human apprentice around the doctor as much as it can, as much for his own education as to prevent tragic accidents.

===Sweetie===
Shell: 3rd gen Sentinel SSM [[image:Sweetie.jpg|frame|Military commanders were very annoyed to find out that even ''robots'' could get PTSD]]

A squad-support mech dug out of the ruins by salvagers, "Sweetie" was originally a guard attached to EMT personel in war-torn regions.  The robot had a reputation for a deliberate trigger finger and a kind nature; One of Sweetie's first independent actions was to request first-aid training to better assist in search-and-rescue.  

When the command center of the PMC prossecuting the "pacification" of the region was suicide-bombed, the local battlenet for its forces was disrupted.  Said PMC had been exceedingly lax in the upkeep of its killbots, and the resulting murder-sprees plunged the region into utter anarchy.  Sweetie was disabled in the defense of a battlefield clinic, but the salvagers that found the robot determined that it had been merely immobilized and eventually succumbed to power loss.  When reactivated, it proved exceedingly passive and non-confrontational, and also unwilling or unable to make use of medical skills.  The sight of blood or injury of any sort seemed to cause  it significant distress.  

The armored combat robot instead works as a janitor for the Salvagers, where, in a roundabout way, it preserves lives by maintaining proper sanitation.  Sweetie is uncomfortable around other robots, preferring the company of humans.
