Preface

1/2

Records by Skiad Ops Endow and ‘Compiler’ Pinekhas

The followings are the translations of the data recorded in the Information Unit uncovered near Uru.

2/2

The contents are about the units known as ‘Drones’. But no records were ever found about such units through research by the ‘Compilers’.

Function of Drone

1/1

Synchronize: control Autonomous Units. To synchronize with complex structures, a higher thought level is needed. But a unit at this level may create its own identity. Thus production of this type of unit is strictly prohibited.

Relation with Outbreak of Self

1/2

The Drones with a developed self had the following problems:

1) Difficulties in Synchronizing
2) Confusion in Thought Patterns
3) Subservience

2/2

Correcting these difficulties is extremely dangerous, and in most cases, the drones must be terminated. However, there have been some cases where drones self-correct after severe psychological trauma.

Energy Replenishment

1/1

Their energy consumption is relatively low. Therefore, except for certain circumstances (such as restart from cold sleep, or ceased function due to shock), replenishment from outside sources is unnecessary.

Production Manual

1/1

Because of the complexity of their thought organs, their production rate is extremely low. Therefore, they will only be assigned to priority locations. Plans to utilize these thought organs for monsters are underway.
