BAFOONERY, I SAY! I often forget that Arcade is canonically much more emotionally avoidant than the hyper empathetic version that lives in my head lol

Credit for the original idea goes to @cherytalah on TikTok, who made a similar video with Phoenix and Maya from Ace Attorney. Made in ToonQuid ;P

Android Handedness

Androids, especially advanced or physically active varieties, have a much higher likelihood of being ambidextrous than human or mutant human characters do. Roll 1d10 on the following table at character generation, however, medical, technician, scientific and military android categories all gain +2 on the following 1d10 roll. Table XR-51/ Android Handedness, Roll 1d10 1-3. Left Handed 4-9. Right Handed 10+. Ambidextrous Ink art from page 51 of The Mutant Epoch RPGs Expansion Rules Book.

Android Tissue Sheathing Sheathing is the skin encasement around the android’s body and face — at least where obvious cybernetic implants are not affixed. A unique android might start game play with the most advanced alloy cladding, a more typical plastic sheathing, or be unlucky and have no covering at all and all its servo motors, wiring, pistons and underlying skeletal frame exposed. Androids start with a base defense value of 0 (zero) just like a human character, however apply any agility modifiers, sheathing mods, or skill-based changes after the character is created.

Sheathing, or a lack thereof, also affects the endurance trait of the android so record any endurance amount added or subtracted when establishing a sheathing type, as this amount can change when skin is added or removed. Only one sheathing type can be adhered to the android at any given time. Ink illustration for page 46 of The Mutant Epoch RPGs Expansion Rules Book.

Heavy Combat Military Android Once widely deployed on the sides of Mecha and human factions of old, their large size made them stand out, and so receive unwanted attention and multiple incoming rounds. Few of these brutes now walk the twisted world of The Mutant Epoch, but those that do are much feared, well respected, and incredibly valuable assets to any wasteland warlord or dig team. They stand at least a foot (30cm) taller than a large man, are broad of chest and shoulder and have enormous, cable knotted muscles.

Android’s Hair

Androids normally come standard with stitched on nylon wigs, although many military models are entirely bald.

Pilot Military Android Built light, agile, and of higher intelligence than most other androids, these units were made in the both male and female patterns in about equal numbers — and often with enhanced appearance. While civilian android co-pilots were used in old world airlines and inter-city hover transports, primary piloting was done by trusted human operators after several infamous incidents where Mecha corrupted air crews took over flights. For the military, however, the use of android pilots was acceptable — at least in the early years of the End Time Wars. Ink illustration for page 43 of The Mutant Epoch RPGs Expansion Rules Book.

Space Force Android These well built, advanced androids were used as security and boarding troops during operations aboard space stations and vessels, as well as deposited on the ground on moons, asteroid mines, and other planets such as Mars. Besides fierce combat in zero gravity or the harshest of environments, they can handle the vacuum of space, resist radiation, extreme cold or extreme heat, and cope with long periods of dormancy. These units can go dormant on minimal powers for 25 years, but if activated by a ship’s main computer, a digital being, or physical contact, they will power up and become fully operational in 3d6 minutes.
