Introducing Nuclear Robots

Hey Salvagers,

A new day a new robot! Today's featured robot is the Nuclear Robot.

Storyline

That explosion of excitement you feel in your chest when you've found your passion? That is power! No substitute for it. And believe me when I say that, once you take those chances on pursuing that passion, it can take you across galaxies.

Seen by few but utilized by many, most Nuclear Robots stay in laboratories on Ignaeter, away from populated areas. Their shoulder bolts are capable of emitting intense energies built up from the explosions contained in its chest. In spite of the constant petitions by residents across the factions to end the use of anything nuclear, a number of these robots have made their way into each planet, where their radioactive abilities have been effective in growing more nutritious crops, increasing efficiency at healthcare centers, and powering interplanetary travel ships.
