Rodanis Y

A machine wrought from some primordial black metal into the likeness of a man, Rodanis Y towers over the halls of Grit Gate.

Perfect

Rodanis Y is a robotic member of the Barathrumites and robots factions and an inhabitant of Grit Gate.[1] They are a large humanoid robot.

Character

Rodanis Y is a robot presumably constructed by the Barathrumites to defend Grit Gate under dire circumstances. Little is known about Rodanis Y, as they do not speak, and are only mentioned briefly by Otho during A Call to Arms, where he tells the player how to activate them.

Activation

When first encountered in Grit Gate, Rodanis Y will be deactivated, and will be completely incapable of movement or action or any kind.[2] Rodanis Y can only be activated after the player acquires the chrome security card,[3] which is given to them by Otho at the start of Grave Thoughts. During A Call to Arms, the player can use Ereshkigal to remotely activate Rodanis Y at a cost of 100 amps. Otherwise, the player can interact with Rodanis Y while in possession of the chrome security card and activate them manually, or can activate Grit Gate's broadcast power station using the chrome security card in order to activate Rodanis Y. (What both the activation via Ereshkigal and the activation via Rodanis Y are actually doing is turning on the broadcast power station.) The player can also deactivate them in the same way.[4][5] While activated, Rodanis Y will flash purple.[3] Attempting to activate or deactive Rodanis Y without the chrome security card will fail.

Rodanis Y requires energy in order to continue operation. They consume 500 energy every turn, and are able to generate 1,000 units every turn via broadcast power,[3] as long as they are not 3 strata or more below the surface. If there is a broadcast power station within the same zone, such as the one within Grit Gate, Rodanis Y can draw power from it instead.[6] If Rodanis Y has no active power source, they will become deactivated.

Combat

While deactivated, Rodanis Y is totally inert and cannot engage in combat. When activated, Rodanis Y will be neutral to the player by default but will attack them if the player attacks Rodanis Y or any Barathrumites in view of them, except during A Call to Arms. Rodanis Y can also become hostile if the player's reputation with the Barathrumites falls low enough.

Equipment

Rodanis Y attacks in melee with their \tungsten carbide axe-fist and \tungsten carbide hammer-fist, which are an axe and a cudgel weapon respectively. Each fist has a +6 to-hit bonus and a penetration cap of 14, and deals ♥2d32-6 (Avg: 4) damage. The axe-fist will always be modded with a special version of serrated, and will have a 60% chance to dismember targets on hit.[3] Additionally, the axe-fist will always be on Rodanis Y's primary hand, and the hammer-fist on their offhand.

Skills

Rodanis Y possesses the Cudgel Proficiency, Bludgeon, Slam, Axe Proficiency, and Dismember skills. These allow them to daze, stun, and dismember their targets. Rodanis Y will knock opponents an extra 4 tiles when using Slam, for a maximum distance of 7 tiles. Additionally, Rodanis Y possesses every skill in the Dual Wield skill tree, allowing them to make attacks more often with their offhand, as well as granting them use of the Flurry ability.[3]

Conversations

If the player attempts to speak to Rodanis Y while they are deactivated, they will be met with the following message:

Rodanis Y is utterly unresponsive.

Otherwise, they will only respond randomly with one of the following:

[ Rodanis Y ]

*beep boop*

*boop beep*

*beep boop beep*

*boop beep boop*

1) Live and... remain ever rustless. [End]
