[ What appears to be a young human in some ill-fitted clothes greets the Corsairs on the network. He gives a polite little bow, and smiles a little awkwardly. He speaks in the local language quite clearly. ]

Hello everyone. My name is Atom. I was pulled through the Gate a few weeks ago and the Corsairs saved me from a transport ship in Hesaeth just a few days before the battle. They have agreed to let me join The Vault.

I know what some of you are probably thinking. Why did they let a kid join? [ He gives a little, uneasy chuckle. ]

I'm actually not a human; I'm a robot.

I was told this world doesn't have robots so I figured I better explain what I am to prevent confusion. Robots are machines that are capable of complex tasks. In my world, robotics has become so advanced that most of us are built with our own wills and personalities. I guess you could say I'm kind of like if someone made an armor with its own complex calculator brain... Um. If you have calculators here. You'll have to tell me. [ Another shy laugh. ]

So I look like a kid on the outside because I was built to look that way, but I don't have organic flesh or blood.

I can help with most kinds of calculations as long as I understand the physical or abstract concepts involved. I can memorize information easily. I can also fly and travel underwater without air. I was told that these could be helpful to the cause.

Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help you, or if you have questions. Thanks!
