Fido

Fidos are a type of cybernetic assistance hybrid, based off the old and lost earth companion creatures: Dogs. FIDO's have a canine neural wetware network, augmented by cybernetics to assist in cognitive processing. Their tissue is uniformly based off of one of six different tissue samples remaining, all cloned via mixing parts of the different tissue samples.

Fidos are companions, rescue operators, exploration assistants, and warfare companions. Their intelligence is roughly equivelent to a Terran 9-year old. FIDO's also show a high proficiency for stellar cartography and astrogation. For some reason FIDO's are able to insinctually know where TerraSol and the Galactic Core as well as the Great Attractor are in relation to their current location when in space.

They're able to configure their appearance using hard light over their chassis. Modes can vary anywhere from companion, to rescue, to combat (sometimes known as 'warboi' or 'killboi'). In hot-zones during war they're dropped via 'goodboi' kennels. Fidos tend to speak in short, simple sentences that tend to reference themselves in the third person. Even though they're heavily cybernetic to the point of being basically a canine brain in a jar, they still appear to pant to assist in cooling down.

FIDO's usually deploy in disaster and combat zones with at least 2 purrboi units inside their chassis as well as a Type II 'mini' creation engine within their chassis.

Warboi Chassis usually possess twin linked rapid fire high caliber belt fed weapons in the middle of the back at the 'spine' as well as rocket launchers over the hindquarters, usually mission configured for armor busting or anti-aircraft.

Rescuebois deploy with up to a dozen purrboi within the chassis, they have a single 60mm magnetic assist rocket launcher used to deploy illumination rounds as well as drones and 'micro-sat' munitions.

Goodboi units are usually configured with one or two purrboi units in case of emergency. They are usually smaller.
