Artificial Auras?
« on: September 26, 2016, 08:07:35 PM »
So in terms of site cannon, is is possible to make robots with artificial auras?

Don't take my word on it but I'd say that it wouldn't be possible for something that is 100% mechanical to have an artificial aura. Pretty sure we've discussed something like this before but I don't remember the exact ruling.

What do you mean by 100% mechanical, exactly? Because I know that the mindless Atlas robots and mechs don't have the capacity to generate aura, but Penny was all mechanical physically, and she could generate an aura because she was sentient, or something like that. So is the propensity to generate an aura linked to a state of sentience, or to the physical form within which it resides?

In my opinion, since we do not have enough information on this, it's best to avoid this topic. However, if I do have to have input, I'd say that Penny was once human, and there was some sort of aura transfer machine (like the one underneath Beacon) that allowed Penny to have that 'artificial' aura. That, or it's just some dust shenanigans that doesn't provide a true 'semblance and aura' you know what I'm saying?

Either way, it's best to assume in site's canon that there will be no robots with aura. Might have to check with that.

Fair enough, I'll just have to make do with advanced armor and internal structuring to compensate.

We do have enough info on this. Penny. A "One of a kind" entity. An entity that does not exist in site canon. So, unless it's some top top top top top secret project from the mega head of R&D for Atlas, no. Not a thing.

Unless Pilum comes out and is like "Oh we've had these go YEEEAAARS" because Pilum.

Pilum has not cracked artificial aura. Primarily for the purpose of making their workaround fit the horror of the place.

The AGIS units have aura, but that's more horror and dickery behind them.

So yeah, no artificial aura.

It's called very very well-placed forcefields and holograms to make it look like artificial aura.
