NPC: A forgotten autotourmaton
NPC: A forgotten autotourmaton
Long Desc: A mechanical man built for treasure-collecting bonks around erroneously.
Constructed to require as little sentience as possible, this automaton digs
for tourmalines, searches for tourmalines, kills anything easy to kill and
within his radius for tourmalines, and grabs tourmalines as they're dropped
by adventurers and other overweight looters. Unaware that its, his?
Collection bin was full of uncollected tourmalines, unemptied by his
disappeared foreman decades before the bin rusted away to nothingness, he
stands steel hip-deep in a pile of tourmalines. The branded insignia etched
in its forehead is not recognizable; it is entirely likely that the
tourmaline extraction company went out of business before you were even
born. Yet, built not for cognizance or self-awareness, the autotourmaton
chugs away, picking tourmalines back out of his pile, spinning around and
adding them to the other side of the pile.
It is a robot approximately 6'11" tall.
This NPC can be found in: The Proving Grounds.
