Automatons are a type of mechanical lifeform primarily found in Jarilo-VI.
Overview[]
Automatons are deployed in Belobog for many purposes, including mining, construction operations, transportation, and military combat. The majority of people in the Underworld regard robots as nothing more than tools. However, some people keep Automatons as pets. They make modifications to their pets, which they call pet upgrades. They formed a small community to share ideas. Some are interested in nurturing robots, while others force them into battle against each other.[1]
Compared to other mechanical lifeforms in the cosmos like Aurumatons, Ingenia, and Intellitrons, the Jarilo-VI Automatons have a short history and a rather basic level of intelligence. Only a few like Svarog have developed advanced intelligence and emotions, and the evolution of Jarilo-VI Automatons has sparked the interest of Screwllum.[2]
All of Belobog's automatons contain language simulation abilities. In normal speech, they generate appropriate responses by reading preset parameters and mimicking natural human conversations. Automatons are capable of developing emotion modules using their own processing power, but the likelihood of a robot gaining sentience beyond control is approximately 0.12%, or 3.23% for robots not connected to the base network.[3]
The modern mech of 
Senior Staff: Team Leader is similar to 
Automaton Grizzly, but its weapons and armor are more advanced than the Jarilo-VI replica.[4]
History[]
More than 700 years ago, the IPC concealed the original mech weapons within the towering rock formations in Old Weapon Testing Ground. When the Antimatter Legion invaded Jarilo-VI, the IPC departed from this world, and no one had possessed the necessary knowledge for activating these weapons. Therefore, the Architects used the IPC blueprints to construct replica Automatons as known today. However, the overwhelming majority of the combatants, commanded by Alisa Rand, were human.[4]
Svarog was originally Monitoring Automaton Prototype 3 from the great war. During Svetlana Rand's office, Svarog became Dr. Mearsheimer's personal robot bodyguard and recorded the Stellaron research data. After Dr. Mearsheimer and his assistants passed away, Alexandra Rand retrieved Svarog.[5] Later, Svarog was deployed in the Underworld to protect the Geomarrow Development Group and the Furnace Core Research Station.[6]
Svarog has developed a network in the Underworld so Automatons connected to the network will follow his management. Vagrants from the underground have formed settlements around the Furnace Core of their own accord. Robot Settlement has become the place where a rapport between humans and robots can be seen.[7]
After Bronya and the Astral Express Crew were sent to the Underworld by Sampo, they fought and convinced Svarog to unseal the Furnace Core. Svarog agreed to reveal the Stellaron data and records, which convinced Bronya to confront Supreme Guardian Cocolia.[5]
When Topaz arrived at Jarilo-VI to collect the debt owed by the Architects from centuries ago, she brought the source code in case she needed to take control of all Automatons in Belobog. Svarog had to bring her to Old Weapon Testing Ground as she requested him while revealing the source code.[8] When Gepard was ordered by the now Supreme Guardian Bronya to garrison in Rivet Town with Silvermane Guards and Automatons to stop the IPC's infiltration, she used the source code to seize control of all their Automatons in an instant and broke through Gepard's defense. She learned the origin of Automatons from Svarog after they stopped at Old Weapon Testing Ground.[4] As she eventually reached consensus with Bronya and invested in the revitalization project of Jarilo-VI, she entrusted the source code to Clara.[9]
