Aside from the haunting imagery, the Lost Future also sells itself on its characters.  Robots are the obvious focus, and get the most screen time, but human characters are also important.
#REDIRECT [[Setting:Inn0cence:_Lost_Future/Lost_Future_Characters]]
 
This page is a resource for characters to populate the setting, including NPCs and the theoretical video game PCs.
 
==Free Machines==
Characters of this faction tend towards a simple hook or amusing quirk, and build their identity around that.  Many have shells that are mostly a single model.  Others...not so much.
 
===Lt. Joshua Percival Cogson===
 
===C1nd3===
 
===Sanchez===
 
===Nana===
 
===Hoss===
 
==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.
