The team of Union
Guard agents was sent to a shopping mall full of rampaging service
robots to stop the malfunctioning drones and discover what exactly
went wrong. There was a wide variety of robots at the mall, including
maintenance bots, cleaning bots, and even delivery bots that had gone
a little “postal.” The team had their hands full handling them,
but thankfully, the Omul on the team had the “Robot ID” talent,
which enabled her to discern weaknesses in the AI of each robot type.
While battling the delivery bot, she communicated to her team that
the robot had a high chance of being distracted if it was given a
package with a mailing label. The downside was that the mailing
labels were in a slot on the side of the robot, and this meant
getting close to the malfunctioning machine. A Chiraktis character
managed to get up close while the robot was busy spraying a
fast-drying thermoplastic polymer on another character to prepare her
for packaging. The Chiraktis snatched a delivery label and filled it
out, then packaged an EMP grenade and handed it to the robot. The
robot suddenly paused and resumed its usual programmed routine,
scanning the delivery label and then storing the grenade in an
internal compartment. This was just enough time for everyone to
escape the blast radius!
