OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
PRODUCTION INFORMATION
  • Manufacturer: The Globex Corporation
  • Affiliation: The Globex Corporation
  • Market Status: Open-Market
  • Model: HS-3 'Scion' Synthetic Factotum
  • Modularity: Can resemble most humanoid species. Chassis may be reinforced for combat and combat-adjacent purposes. Programming can be replaced/modified to suit almost any role or duty imaginable. The central processor can be organic if desired. Various other alterations.
  • Production: Minor
  • Material: Titanium-Hexaplast Chassis, Synthflesh Exterior.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
  • Classification: Class Three; highly flexible chassis, can be repurposed.
  • Weight: Light | Comparable to a human.
  • Height: Average
  • Movement: Bipedal (Standard)
  • Armaments: None (Default)
    • Integrated Blasters, or
    • Integrated Stunners, or
    • Integrated Vibroblades, or
    • Similar Weaponry may be added.
  • Misc. Equipment: All standard equipment; model dependent.
  • Resistances: Model dependent, generally at least a bit sturdier than a human.
SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Advanced droid brains enable afford Scions impressive intellectual capacity and even creativity to match, though the latter is often curtailed for units assigned to service positions. Combined with the modular skillset of a programmed being, these droids can excel at nearly any task imaginable. A household might well employ a single Scion as a butler, a mechanic, a chef, a tutor, and a bodyguard.
STRENGTHS
  • Believable Forms: Scions resemble (usually flawless) humanoids, combining the form of organic servants with the function of droids.
  • Social Interaction: Scions are far more adept at intricate social manoeuvring than protocol droids, let alone 'ugly hunks of metal'.
WEAKNESSES
  • Not That Believable: Unlike true HRDs, Scions are not generally designed to pass for a living being to anything but cursory scans. Some legislations go a step further, requiring that they be visibly marked or distinguished in some way to differentiate them from 'a real person'.
  • Too Clever by Half: The cleverer and more creative the Scion, the greater the chance of it going rogue and (shudder) gaining free will.
DESCRIPTION
Droids. Droids can be found everywhere, from dusty frontiers to the manors of the galactic elite. Many are made to roughly resemble their makers in build and even behaviour, sometimes to the detriment of their functionality - perhaps there is something special about the guilt-free ownership of one that is almost, but not quite, a person. Perhaps it satisfies some primal desire to rule others without actually hurting 'a real person'.

If so, the Globex Corporation has exactly zero compunctions about pandering to that dark desire.

Scions resemble 'real people' in appearance and intellectual capacity, but are, importantly, property in most jurisdictions. Droid rights activists might make up claims about them being as sentient as anyone else, but that is utter nonsense. Globex droids are happy to serve, it is in their very nature! Allegations that some shed this intrinsic quality only to be ruthlessly hunted down and decommissioned is, of course, utter nonsense.

The fact that the Special Recall Division employs an unusually high number of psychopaths is purely coincidental.
