Although
they can't exactly be called “villains,” the Union Guard must
also concern itself with non-sentient threats, such as robots and
alien lifeforms. There are thousands of planets in the universe with
a wide variety of alien lifeforms, and quite a number of them are
dangerous. Though these lifeforms are rarely the target of an
investigation, it is not uncommon for agents to have to traverse the
wilds of alien planets and encounter the deadly denizens along the
way. Robots are also a common threat to UG agents, especially those
used for security by criminal organizations. In some cases, robots
could arguably even be considered “sentient,” because rogue or
illegal AI programs have sometimes resulted in robotic monsters that
must be put down and thoroughly dismantled. Innocent service bots can
sometimes malfunction, or even be repurposed and weaponized. It is a
dangerous universe out there—are you ready to join the agents of
the Union Guard?
