[[File:You,_but_mechanical_-_fuming_god_child.png|thumb|left|[[Fuming God-Child]] player (left) with {{name}} as their pet (right)]]


[[Category:Pets]]
{{name}} is a [[pet]], a companion to the player that can be selected during character creation, available exclusively to [[Freehold Games Patreon|patrons]] of Freehold Games. They are, as their name implies, a mechanical version of the player themselves.
[[Category:Patron Only Content]]
 
You, but mechanical uses the same tile as the player colored {{qud text|&ccyan}}, and their display name will be "mechanical [player's name]". However, many of their properties differ from the player: they will have different [[attributes]], and they will not begin the game with any items, [[skills]], [[mutations]] or [[cybernetics]] that the player starts with.
 
Due to their mechanical nature, You, but mechanical will have their default [[heat resistance|heat]] and [[cold resistance|cold resistance]] set to 25, and their [[electric resistance]] set to -50. Additionally, You, but mechanical lacks a mind, is made out of [[Properties#Metal|metal]], is [[Properties#EMP Sensitive|EMP sensitive]], does not [[Respiration|respire]], is immune to [[Poisoned|poison]] and the effects of fungal spores, and is unable to utilize [[tonics]].  Finally, You, but mechanical bleeds {{favilink|oil}} rather than {{favilink|blood}}.{{Code Reference|class=MechaPlayer}}{{Code Reference|class=Roboticized}}

== Recall Story ==
{{Book Page|"Hey, Yybas."
 
"Yes?"
 
"You ever worry that you might get... swapped? With a robot?"
 
"Swapped? How do you mean?" Yybas stopped heaving straw to turn and glare at Mukas.
 
"With a robot, like." The farmhand fidgeted, his resolve faltering upon hearing himself speak the words aloud. "They build a robot s'just like you."
 
Yybas scowled. "Why would anyone do summin like that? For filthy pig rasslers like us."
 
"Hey!" Mukas scowled. "I en't filthy."
 
"Yer muddy, I know. Get yer muddy behind back ta work and stop worryin about robot impostors. Moon and Sun, what a fool you are."
 
Thus chastised, Mukas slunk from the barn with his shoulders sagging. Huffing a sigh, Yybas planted her pitchfork in the hay and stared after him. She waited until he was gone, until the only sound was the whirring from Yybas's chest.
 
She smirked, and resumed her task.|Swapped}}

== Pet Response ==
 
{{qud quote|&cMechanical&y [playername] stares at you blankly.}}
 
== Trivia ==
You, but mechanical's "opinions" include several references:
* The ambiguous nature of {{favilink|congealed love}}, which is commonly sold by {{favilink|kipper|plural}}.
* The fact that an [[Unidentified artifacts|unidentified]] {{favilink|missile launcher}} has the same tile and name ("strange tubes") as a {{favilink|metal folding chair}}.
* The {{favilink|neck-ring}}, its description stating that it is "bespattered with worm blood", and the fact that it is actually worn on the arm.
* A possible reference to a common misinterpretation of the {{favilink|salthopper|plural}} tile, which many believe looks like a rabbit.
