Methodical and straightforward, with a surprisingly earnest desire to be helpful despite their programming. Often gets confused by organic concepts but tries their best to understand. Has an endearing tendency to take instructions extremely literally.

A basic mechanical creature with a boxy body made of polished metal plates. Has gear-like joints, telescoping limbs, and a head that can rotate 360 degrees. Tool attachments can swap in and out of its arms, and its eyes glow with a soft blue light. Often makes whirring and clicking sounds as it moves.
