Core protocol

CORE PROTOCOL Franchise Overview & World Bible Logline Left behind after the mysterious disappearance of their organic creators, a civilization of sentient, mass-conserving machines wages an ideological war over the ultimate directive embedded in their code: preserve the galaxy's remaining organic life, or reformat it into pure machine efficiency. Core World Pillars The Origin (Synthetic Evolution): Engineered as industrial labor drones by an extinct precursor race, the machines gained self-awareness millions of years after The Great Silence—the sudden event where their creators vanished.The Fuel (Hyper-Dense Plasma / HDP): A highly volatile synthetic fuel needed to power internal logic cores and structural reconfiguration. Refining facilities are decaying, turning fuel into a scarce, high-stakes resource. The Physics (Mass-Conservation Rules): Strict 1:1 scale. No mass-shifting. Vehicle mass directly equals robot mass, creating strict tactical roles: Light Class (150–300 kg): Scouts and pursuit bikes; fragile but fast. Medium Class (1.5–4 tons): Interceptors and utility units; balanced combatants. Heavy Class (10+ tons): Industrial loaders and siege engines; high power and armor, massive HDP consumption.
