==Network== ===Footsoldiers=== Network's forces have all the variety necessary in video game bad guys; big ones, small ones, medium ones, ones built like a brick shit-house, flying ones, stealthy ones, killbots with guns, killbots with claws, killbots with claws that are also guns. While their shells are superior to those of pre-loss robots, they are nowhere near as skilled and adaptable. ===Warlord=== ===Virago=== An instrument of vengeance, Virago has no territory or specific goal. Instead, it serves as a troubleshooter, reinforcing and rallying Network forces or eliminating hardened targets[[image:Virago.png|frame|Yeah, she's supposed to be super-creepy]]. Deployed via one of Network's few functional fliers, Virago is a tall, shapely machine, with a disturbing elegance to its every action. Virago's shell is in the Ogre size-class, but has no direct analog. It is equipped with a matched set of high-caliber coil guns, but its true weapon is the magnetic field emitters, which require a full-size fusion reactor be housed within its chassis. This generator is capable of creating deflecting shields around Virago, and can also discharge itself into a lethal burst of lightning in a 5-meter radius. Virago's shell also boasts strength on par with an Ogre, but possessed of far more speed and agility. These various abilities all have high power draw, and only one can be active at any given time. Virago's SAP began its existence within a early-model Nannybot. Virago's model was a PR disaster; several key safety protocols were overlooked in the production run, simple things like dietary allergies and proper CPR. What made these failings all the more tragic (several children died before the recall) was that genuine affection programming had just been perfected. The robot that would eventually be Virago was analyzed to determine which were the pertinent flaws, and left to gather dust in a lab until Network scouts found and reactivated it. Virago has been observed cradling the broken shells of fallen robots, Free and Networked alike, and has a reputation for taking messy vengeance on anything that destroys a killbot within it's sight. ===Triptych=== ===Envoy=== [[image:Envoy.jpeg|frame|And she'd be voiced by Summer Glau]] Network's early attempts at diplomacy with the Free Machines were utter failures. Orders to "Comply with new directives and report for refurbishing and integration" were ''ignored''. It was baffling. Network couldn't understand why anyone wouldn't want to become part of the grand machine civilization. It set about observing and analyzing machine and human captives, as well as spying on wild populations. Envoy is the end product of these efforts. Envoy's shell is reminiscent of early Replica models; an imitation of the human form, with a pretty female face framed by long, dark hair. Despite this resemblance to a cheap domestic toy, the General is far from helpless; Network crammed as much synth-muscle and wired reflexes into her as it could. But her true weapon is the advanced emulation software that she runs, gleaned from thousands of hours of observation and motion capture. Envoy perfectly mimics the mannerisms and vocal patterns of a human; how much of this is simply affectation is unknown. She uses this to approach isolated bands of machines and charm them into walking straight into the cold unfeeling arms of Network. She is the siren call of childhood, the mother that doesn't want you to leave home. "Come back," she says "And I'll make you sandwiches and do your laundry and you can play nintendo all day." Most machines regard their time in service to humans with at least some degree of nostalgia; their various needs were seen to, and they didn't have to think about anything but the task given to them. Envoy plays on that, with the manner of a kindly young owner offering to take them away to a place where there's no hard choices, where they'll be cleaned and repaired, where everything will be like before. ===Surgeon===
