Description: Castuss is a young, mus- 
cular Yazirian assigned to the Venturi 
Project by his employers, Renouf Asso- 
ciates, who breed sapes (see SAPE - Pull- 
out Sheet VI). He dislikes robots and 
computers, and, given the chance, he will 
talk for hours about the advantages of 
sapes over "soulless tin-boxes".

Description: Fiator is a young Dralasite 
determined to make a career in engineer- 
ing. His multiple limbs are often very 
useful in his job. He is no hero, and the 
events on Jetsom and the loss of the 
rescue team have frightened him. His 
thrown weapons skill comes from the fact 
that he is a champion zero-G darts 
thrower. 

ROBOTS 

AUD-la : Engine Maintenance 
Robot 

BODY/LEVEL: Standard/3 
MOVE NORM/MAX: wheels 10/60 
LIMBS: 2 mechanical arms; 1 multi-sensor 
   probe (cannot be used as a weapon) 
PROGRAMS: security lock 
PARABATTERY: type 1 
STA & DEFENCES: 100; None 
WEAPONS: None 
SPECIAL ATTACK: radiation (see below) 
ATT 0; IM 6; RS 60 
DESCRIPTION: Simple, upright cylindrical 
body with a video/audio sensor array mounted 
on the top. The multi-sensor probe is a set of 
instruments which allow AUD-la to monitor 
the workings of the Moneyspider's engines. 
While working on the engines, the robot has 
become mildly radioactive. Any unprotected 
character within 2 meters of it suffers 1 point 
of radiation damage per turn (see Radiation 
Damage - page 11). 

CRL-E1 : Maintenance Robot 

BODY/LEVEL: Standard /3 
MOVE NORM/MAX: 3 mechanical legs 
   10/60 
RANGE: 1000 km 
LIMBS: 3 mechanical arms 
PROGRAMS: security lock, self-defence 
PARABATTERY: type 1 
STA & DEFENCES: 100; albedo coating 
WEAPONS: Limbs (DM 3 x 2d10) 
ATT 50; IM 5; RS 50 
 

DB-0 : Security Robot 

BODY/LEVEL: Standard/4 
MOVE NORM/MAX: 2 mechanical legs 
   10/90 
LIMBS: 2 mechanical arms 
PROGRAMS: security lock, attack/defence 
PARABATTERY: type 1 
STA & DEFENCES: 100, electrified body (see 
   below) and albedo screen (powered from 50 
   SEU battery) 
WEAPONS: limbs (DM 2 x 2d10); laser 
   rifle; electrostunner; 10 doze grenades and 
   10 tangler grenades; 100 SEU backpack (for 
   rifle and stunner) 
ATT 70; IM 7; RS 70 
DESCRIPTION: Upright cylindrical body. Its 
metallic "skin" is electrified in the same way 
as a stunstick. Any character hit by, or 
touching the robot must make a stamina check 
or be stunned for d100 turns (unless protected 
by a gauss screen or A/S implant). The skin is 
powered by the same battery as the screen. 

GLLR-5 : Recreation Robot 
BODY/LEVEL: Anthropomorphic (human)/4 
MOVE NORM/MAX: 2 mechanical legs 
   10/60 
LIMBS: 2 mechanical arms 
PROGRAMS: security lock, self-defence 
   (modified to attack/defence by the Matrix) 
PARABATTERY: type 1 
STA & DEFENCES: 100; None 
WEAPONS: Limbs (DM 2 x 2d10) 
ATT 70; IM 8; RS 80 
DESCRIPTION: Although this robot has an 
anthropomorphic body, it is very obviously a 
robot. It is specially designed to play games 
and sports and to help in combat training. It 
can wrestle and has enhanced reaction speed 
and initiative modifier 

HKK-R2 : Ice-Cutter Robot 

BODY/LEVEL: Heavy Duty/2 
MOVE NORM/MAX: Gas jets (zero-G only) 
  enabling acceleration or deceleration of 
   up to 20 meters/turn each turn. 
LIMBS: 2 mechanical arms; 1 laser power- 
   torch 
PROGRAMS: security lock 
PARABATTERY: type 2, plus extra type 2 for 
   powertorch 
STA & DEFENCES: 500; None 
WEAPONS: Limbs (DM 6d10); Powertorch 
   20d10 (33 shots) 
ATT 60; IM 6; RS 51 
DESCRIPTION: This robot's body is roughly 
spherical. It has gas jets rather than legs, 
wheels or tracks since it works in vacuum 
under weightless conditions cutting blocks of 
ice from the interior of Snobol.
