AI NPCs
Friend Computer
Qui sunt super nos omnes.
Jackobot
I am a Jackobot
ImanaBot
"I only open for Daddy" - Literally something James had to say while roleplaying this robot fridge.
A refrigerator bot that the team needed to repair. Inside was an old thanksgiving turkey dinner that was slowly rotting.
ScrubBots
ScrubBots are typically innocuous robots built to keep everyone sanitary, as cleanliness is next to godliness. The very first mission the troubleshooters went on was to track down a group of Scrubbots which had been hacked and were aggressively (and lethally) scrubbing various citizens faces.
Warbots
The most dangerous bots under Friend Computer's army, the team first encountered Warbots when a special Scrub/War bot hybrid was programmed to eliminate all SPAM from the complex, targetting the hacked PDCs of the players (see Marco-G in Mortal NPCs below).
For some strange reason, Warbots frequently were hacked to eliminate Evo.
Captain Botaroo
It's been so long since he's been on the air. One of his rusted arms has a laser barrel, and he tests kids to know if they've been a "good little boy or girl", and his mandate dictates he needs to eliminate any "bad" children, aka communistic mutant traitors.
Funbot
"I just came back from the WES Sector and boy are my arms tied. Great crowd great crowd. But seriously folks."
A festive, funny, holiday robot built to satisfy the happiness and enjoyment needs of the troubleshooting team. He would frequently throw pies into the faces of troubleshooters, and other (mostly) harmless pranks. This mostly just got in the way of completing the mission.
The Funbot would randomly (at the insistence of the audience rewards) run away from the team, requiring the team to stop the mission and give chase.
Mortal NPCs
Teela-O-MLY
The most perfect citizen. Teela also had strange mutation ability to make anyone and everyone fall in love with her from a short distance, with a sort of traitorous pheromone.
Marco-G
A traitor and spammer who hacked the PDCs of the troubleshooters in their first adventure. Had a bounty on his head that Evo tried to claim.
Fork
Fork was a warforged and high programmer who was around in the foundational days of Alpha Complex, having spent centuries on Kiston (Island) before that.
George-B
VATSLIMES.
You are vatslime you vulgar little maggots. Don't you know that you are pathetic? You worthless bags of filth.
You are cankers. Sores that won't go away. Zits on the butt of the Alpha Complex. I would rather kiss a mutant than be even seen with you.
FIX. THE. BOT.
You have one job. The computer believes you can do this job even though you are degenerate, noxious and depraved. I feel debased just for knowing you exist.
I despise everything about you. But I trust you can do the job because the computer says you can do the job.
You are bloody nardless newbies, caricatures of a cloacal parasitic pond worm and I wish you great success in this mission. So that you can then go away.
FIX. THE. BOT.
You're a walking vomit. You are a jerks, cads, weasels. Your lives are a monument to stupidity. You are a stench, a revulsion, a big suck on a sour lemon. And if you don't get out of my office in 5 seconds I will have you demoted to Infrared faster than you drool puke on your embarrassing bodies.
GO. FIX. THE. BOT.
What are you still doing here you monsters?
Zhon-B
A troubleshooter stuck in the sewers of the Alpha Complex for 20 years, Zhon-B had been setting up traps, some of which killed the troubleshooters themselves. Zhon-B, however, was defeated when Gouverneur pulled the all powerful trick of "Look behind you!" and they ran away from him.
Cleto-B
A briefing officer for "Send in the Clones" who was killed by PURGE members Cinnabon and Pixel.
The Junior Citizens
Also called "JCs", they were a group of kids who had escaped their education centers and fled into the sewers of Alpha Complex, where they stumbled upon a old broadcast studio and sang treasonous songs into the global broadcast.
Friend Computer deeply protected the JCs, causing the players to hold their fire and try to convert the kids to their side with powerful speeches and later violent threats.
Tom-P-GARD
"Wait there's no P Clearance" - Hendrix
Tom was an obnoxious, perhaps THE most obnoxious, of the PLC lackeys working in supply. He was a real snot. And I'm glad he's gone.
Ned-G-QQQ
One of the stranger R&D researchers. Ned-G was responsible for creating the FunBot. Ned-G was a bit of a loose cannon, often accidentally firing blasters in attempts to look cool.
HAL-Y-OOO
"Did you like the taste of that? I got more where that came from" - HAL-Y to fellow druggie Hendrix
A sleezy drug pusher who helped the team track down Teela-O-MLY. He was also the entertainment programmer, whose vidshows were legendary in the sector. Hal had a scandalously high falutent office of many expensive colors, rugs, wallpapers, items, terminals and more.
Hal was slick, short, balding, and entered rooms with a flourish. He was also ALWAYS high on some sort of upper, giving him a manic energy. He was always wiping his lips, sucking on spoons, and showing off his gold chains.
