Guild of Technomancers Middle Earth, Project: MOBILE TOTEM Research Log No. 13.156.23

Batch 4 subjects have been transferred to DELTA-4 as per their request. At least these subjects survived the augmentation process. We did get some new information about what happened to Batch 3 from the Guild of Biomancers.

It turns out that they partnered with the notorious Buckbreaker Orc Tribe and handed the subjects over to them. We had no idea that they would cut corners like this! We sent them explicit instructions to handle those subjects with care and they ignored them!

We honestly thought that they would just reprogram their brains or something. I guess that there are limits to what Biomancy can do. Anyway, this is all water under the bridge now.--

We have received an unusual request from an Human Enclave in the Gondor Region. They want to use a few of them as servants of sorts. We assume that the term "servant" is just another word for "slave" or "thrall". Normally we wouldn't help them with this but they offered a hefty sum of coin for them. So we are sending Batch 5 to them.

We asked them how they learned about them and they responded with that fact that they have been sighted questing in their location. They assumed we had something to do with them and they happened to be correct. When we asked what kind of work are they wanting them for, they said it was for an easily repairable force of troops under their control.

We did warn them that these are not mindless robotic servitors but they said they can handle it. Just in case something goes wrong we will be sending a few of us with them to monitor and collect data of course. Thankfully UMBRA-6 is located in the mountains of Gondor so it will be a short trip for them.--

Guild of Technomancers Middle Earth, Project: MOBILE TOTEM Research Log No. 13.156.25

MOBILE TOTEM Batch 5 Subjects are augmented and ready to be transferred to the nearby human enclave. They did ask for them to be outfitted with the traditional Gondorian battledress so we had to modify the robotic bodies and the protective helmet to resemble Gondorian armor. We have to admit that this was a great custom job.

I just hope they can deal with the fact that these Dark Elves mostly view humans with contempt and vice-versa. So there might be some trouble in giving them instructions. We did advise them that care should be taken to not provoke them since they can be aggressive like animals on very rare occasions. Though this is nothing unusual for most sentient beings.

Like we said, these are not mindless drones. They are still sentient and have their own feelings and such. So we have to keep that in mind when making them and using them. Though they might need to be trained in the use of human weapons since they are not used to using them. That unsual way they shoot a bow is funny to see though.--
