The Defender Series Security bots are the secondary line of AI of the Mining Guild, under the Night Guard, which controls the Humanoid Robots, Quadrupedal Robots, Tank drones, Starfighter drones²⁾ and Stationary bots.

The Defender Series Security Bots are a sophisticated suite of robotic AI and robotic types utilized by The Night Guard, a renowned private security organization led by Vilkas Kurosaki. Tasked with the vital role of protecting and defending the interests of the Mining Guild, these advanced robots are designed to complement, not replace, the Night Guard personnel.

The Defender Series is designed to enhance the capabilities of The Night Guard's organic security team. While the robots provide extensive surveillance, rapid response, and physical defense, they are not meant to replace Organic judgment and decision-making. Instead, they work in tandem with Night Guard personnel, allowing organics to focus on strategic and complex tasks that require a higher level of cognition and flexibility.

• Enhanced Security: With their advanced AI and specialized designs, the Defender Series robots provide a heightened level of security, ensuring comprehensive protection of the Mining Guild's interests.
• Increased Efficiency: The robots can perform continuous monitoring and rapid response, reducing the workload and fatigue of human personnel.
• Risk Mitigation: By handling dangerous and high-risk tasks, the robots reduce the potential for human or other organic casualties and injuries.
• Cost-Effective: Over time, the use of robotic systems can lower operational costs associated with security personnel, such as salaries, benefits, and training.

The Defender Series was conceived in YE 46, following the development and enhancement of several key pieces of equipment within The Night Guard’s arsenal. These included the Ares Combat Suit, which served as the standard issue for The Night Guard operatives, and the more advanced Tyr MK1 Power Armor, designed for high-level anti-criminal operations. These armors were essential for tackling criminal organizations with the backing of foreign governments, providing The Night Guard with the necessary protection and firepower.

Recognizing the need for further augmentation of their forces, Aeta Kurosaki, Vilkas’s sister, and Lady Nyx Pine, daughter of the late Archduke Jack Pine and Royal Representative of the Mining Guild, collaborated with Vilkas to discuss the creation of a new series of robots and AI systems. Their aim was to develop a suite of security bots that would enhance the operational capacity of The Night Guard without replacing human personnel.

Aeta, with her strategic acumen and deep understanding of the Mining Guild's needs, and Lady Nyx Pine, with her diplomatic influence and commitment to the Guild's security, brought their unique perspectives to the table. Together, they envisioned a line of robots that could undertake surveillance, defense, and rapid response tasks, thereby allowing human operatives to focus on more complex and strategic roles.

Their collaboration led to the birth of the Defender Series, a versatile and robust line of security bots designed to protect and defend Mining Guild interests. This series included humanoid bots for interaction and precision tasks, quadrupedal bots for agility and terrain navigation, tank bots for heavy-duty defense, and stationary bots for constant surveillance and perimeter security.

The Defender Series was a significant milestone, reflecting the ongoing evolution of The Night Guard’s capabilities. It symbolized the fusion of advanced technology and human expertise, aimed at creating a more secure and efficient operational environment. This innovative approach not only bolstered The Night Guard's effectiveness but also ensured the Mining Guild's assets and personnel were safeguarded against any threats.

During their collaboration, the team carefully selected five distinct types of robots for the Defender Series, each designed to fulfill specific security roles. The chosen types were the Humanoid type known as Protector, the Quadrupedal type known as Prowler, the Tank type known as Goliath, the Stationary type known as Bastion, and a specialized AI-controlled drone system known as Starbreaker Used by both the nDC and the Mining Guild..

The Protector bots, as the name suggests, were designed to act as the first line of defense. Their humanoid form allowed them to interact seamlessly with organic personnel and the environment. These bots were equipped with advanced AI systems capable of performing a variety of tasks, from patrolling to direct intervention in security breaches. Their human-like dexterity and decision-making abilities made them invaluable for maintaining order and ensuring the safety of the Mining Guild's assets and personnel.

The Prowler bots, with their quadrupedal design, were created to excel in mobility and versatility. These bots could navigate rugged terrains and difficult environments that might be challenging for human operatives. Equipped with high-resolution cameras, thermal imaging, and sensitive motion detectors, Prowlers were ideal for extensive patrols and surveillance in the expansive and often hazardous mining sites. Their agility and stability ensured that they could respond quickly and effectively to any detected threats.

For heavy-duty defense, the Goliath bots were introduced. These tank-like robots were heavily armored and armed with advanced weaponry. Their primary role was to provide a formidable defense against high-level threats, including those posed by criminal organizations with substantial backing. The Goliath bots' robustness and firepower made them a crucial component in protecting critical infrastructure and valuable resources within the Mining Guild.

The Bastion bots, designed for stationary roles, were tasked with maintaining constant vigilance over key locations. These bots were equipped with cutting-edge surveillance systems, including motion sensors, facial recognition software, and automated alert mechanisms. Their ability to monitor perimeters and critical points continuously ensured that any suspicious activity was immediately detected and reported, enabling rapid response by Night Guard personnel.

In addition to these ground-based robots, Lady Nyx Pine leveraged her connections to provide The Night Guard and the Mining Guild with access to the Starbreaker AI fighter drones. These drones, controlled by the sophisticated Astra Core AI system, added a crucial aerial component to the Defender Series. The Starbreaker drones were designed for high-speed, precise aerial surveillance and combat, capable of neutralizing threats from above and providing critical reconnaissance data. This integration of aerial drones significantly enhanced the overall security capabilities of The Night Guard, offering a comprehensive defense strategy that covered both ground and air.

This carefully curated selection of robots and AI systems in the Defender Series reflected a strategic and forward-thinking approach to security. By combining advanced robotics with human oversight and expertise, The Night Guard and the Mining Guild ensured a robust and multi-faceted defense framework. The Defender Series not only bolstered the operational efficiency of The Night Guard but also provided a resilient shield for the Mining Guild's interests, safeguarding them against a wide array of potential threats.
